Samsung UE55F8000 review: Samsung's UE55F8000 has a terrific smart TV system

The UE55F8000 is the best LED TV I've seen so far this year. It has strong picture and audio quality and a truly excellent smart TV system, making it a well-rounded package. Nevertheless, it's hugely expensive and if you mostly use your TV to watch movies in the evening, you'll get the same features, except with better picture quality and at lower price from Samsung's slightly chunkier F8500 plasma. Until its 4K TV arrives in the UK, the UE55F8000 sits at the top of Samsung's 2013 TV lineup. Of course, this means it's packed full of features, including -- deep breath -- voice and motion control technology, a smart TV system that supports all the major UK terrestrial TV catch up services, micro-dimming for deeper black levels, dual tuners for both Freesat and Freeview and active 3D support.
Pros:
  • Class-leading smart TV system
  • Deep black levels by LED standards
  • Strong, bold colours
  • Decent audio performance.
Cons:
  • Motion- and voice-control features are still gimmicky
  • 'Crease' across the top and bottom of the display when showing certain images.

It is a pretty good TV, it has taken me ages and much support from the Net and Samsung to get a quality picture. However i am still struggling with my picture settings in Gaming Mode. I do not seem to be able to get the perfect picture, still a bit blurry.
Pros:
  • Design
  • Picture Quality
  • Smart Apps
Cons:
  • Takes a lot of messing around to get a great picture

The F8000 Series is Samsung's top-shelf 1080p LCD television for 2013. Consequently, this TV is loaded with all of the company's best technologies and features. I'm especially happy to see the return of local dimming to this edge-lit LED model.

Fantastic Overall Television but not Perfect

I've been using this television for several weeks now and first and foremost I'll say that the picture quality is outstanding. It's pretty much the best LCD television you can buy this year.

Impressive TV

Purchased the Samsung UE55F8000 after months of looking and comparing. I had a Pioneer plasma with reference picture quality but wanted to change to a bigger screen, lower energy consumption and not have to worry about screen burn when playing PS3 games etc..

Wow

I got this TV 6 weeks ago and i love the picture quality, i thought the smart TV thing was a gimmick but it turned out to be pretty amazing. I had read things about the light bleeding being an issue on this TV but i haven't noticed anything, i had the TV calibrated and it took away some of the...
