Un55B8000 Samsung Hdtv 55 1080p Led – The You Buy

Most of what I have to say about this TV has already been said – is the LCD to beat at this time. Everything said about him is true – LED attenuation characteristics really helps to raise local blacks – almost – the level of plasma.

So it's good, very good, but it's all been said before. I will focus on items not are in my humble opinion enough.

First of all – the remote control. And fields of RF (radio frequency) and IR (infrared) and all devices out there.

No big deal if you only use the TV remote control, but means that you can use your existing remote control (eg cable box, receiver, etc) to control the TV, and that also means you can not use your remote to control other devices. So gone are the days a universal remote to control everything, unless you want to go out and buy a Logitech Harmony 900 Remote Control (Black) to go with him.

From television, almost by definition, is the only component that is not going to be hidden, it seems strange to have opted for RF over IR.

Second, the stand. It does not really seem stable enough for a big screen. Yes, it is elegant, subtle, but seems to provide sufficient stability in my mind.

If you are mounting screen wall be well (as an appropriate mounting bracket to the wall, of course), but note that the screen seems unstable when mounting kit included. That said, there is still upside down, but living in an earthquake zone is of particular interest to me.

These are the only real issues I found. There are some other factors that may or not be important to some people, but I've never seen discussed anywhere before.

Television really needs some how to disable the entries that are not using (or interested). I probably will never use an antenna connected directly to the TV, but can not remove the option TV menu 'on the screen (for switching between inputs).

Come on Samsung! Why do not you? The same applies to the PC input. Also There is a dedicated button on the remote control to switch to this input. I would say that most people today use a cable or satellite STB, then you should be a way to reassign users to input key choice "and not just connected to the antenna.

It is worth noting that the OSD does not drop connections inactive are HDMI then fashionable. Must be able to do the same with other inputs, too.

The TV has a digital optical output that transmits sound from any entry through a receiver. In theory, this works fine, except that if the use of HDMI for the TV method, only 2 channel audio is output. This can be common (for example, a limit of the HDMI standard idiot), but was totally unexpected for me.

This means you will be the implementation of sound (presumably optical) cables between any HDMI-based and receiver – can not rely on the audio being routed through the television.

For reasons do not understand all HDMI ports are arranged vertically on the left side of the unit. Although not a major issue, which makes cable routing more difficult and means that you need longer cables than you think – saw the cost of good HDMI cables, you can add. Samsung not only here – most of the TV I looked to do the same thing, but it is inexplicable to me.

On a similar note, the slim profile of this screen extends also to the connectors on the back – Do not try to use cables with connectors too thick (as some people as Monster Cable wire. The TV just won 't take them. To be honest, the manual indicates a maximum thickness of 14 mm of cable connectors, but only after it pulled out of the box and wiring configurations.

Another thing that I could not find documented anywhere – including Samsung's site – is power. The back plate lists the 465W maximum – significantly better than almost any plasma I looked the same size. typical design seems to be about 250-350W, depending on what you are seeing.

I do not understand why the powers are so hard to find these things.

Thus, despite the above-sounding negative, I am very, very happy with the TV – all good things have been said and I emphasize the few things I took.

SAMSUNG 55 1080p HDTV UN55B8000 LED – Amazing as advertised

The picture on this TV is amazing as advertised, and is by far the clearest picture I've ever seen. Blacks are deep, colors are true and vibrant, and the images are sharp and almost 3D-esque.

Before buy this TV, I had read reviews that the picture is not in viewing angle of the poor. Maybe my eyes are not as passionate as the experts but I totally disagree with that. I had the TV for three weeks, and I saw the TV at different angles. I searched for a specific quality drop in the corners, and I have not noticed any difference. So I'm not sure what they are talking.

My only complaint about this TV (if one can really call it that) is that the speakers are fairly average. And when you are watching a truly amazing picture with a sound mediocre, mediocre, the sound is out and quite annoying. Therefore, we pay another $ 600 for an external speaker system (Bose CineMate Series II) to mainstream television – and at that time, the total cost was quite nauseating.
