Samsung UN55B8000 Reviews:


5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning!, June 30, 2009By Sammy2398 (Michigan)
"Had my Samsung UN55B8000TV a couple of weeks now. It has more than lived up to the hype. Hooked it up and put on a blu-ray disk. Even the delivery guy's jaw dropped, and he's delivered/set up hundreds of TVs. TV is only inch and half thick and only weighs 60 pounds or so. In fact, it is sometimes almost too good. When viewing people on HD you can see every little mole, scar, wrinkle, stray hair, makeup, five o'clock shadow, makeup line, etc. I'm sitting here watching the news and I can clearly see tiny pieces of lint on the guy's black suit. I'm guessing the talking heads of tomorrow are all going to have to have much better complexions. "

"I had researched this LED product online and in-store. I found the best features at the best price and did not have to pay sales tax nor shipping. I could not be happier with this 55" Samsung TV."

"Picture quality 9 of 10, pretty cool actually. Yes, there is some color variation in corners of screen (light pumping) minor, u really have to look for it. Samsung 950A is a little better IMHO. But is old tech compared to networking opts on 8000. Wait for 950B, later this summer. If u can.
Haven't had to make any tweaks to picture, apart from temporary changes depending on signal source.
Take care if hanging on wall; Tv is slim & fragile. make sure top 2 bolts are carrying most of the wieght, or you will buckle internal TV support frame.
All-in all, a very fine Tv that should remain techno enough for years to come."
