After researching tvs for more than a year I finally pulled the trigger on the ks9000. In the beginning I wasn't really that impressed with the picture quality, so much so, I seriously thought about returning it. The picture was kind of grainy, dull, and it appeared to be no better than the most basic 1080p. So after tempering my frustration I tried to see if there was something I could do to unlock this tv's potential. First, after messing around with the picture settings and failing, I went online to find some calibration recommendations from others who own this model tv. Needless to say, I was quickly reminded of the fact that picture settings are not one size fits all. Most of the recommendations led me to a picture that made me hate the tv even more. So after trying everything I could think of, and trying everything that was recommended, I was done. My husband on the other hand, decided to take a crack at adjusting the settings before we took it back and I'm so glad he did. Admittedly, my husband calibrating this tv wasn't exactly giving a beacon of hope. He's color blind, hates watching tv, hates how "defined" the pictures are on modern tvs, and he's not very tech savvy. Imagine my shock when I walked back into the room and he had configured a picture that was AMAZING. I went from absolute disappointment to feeling like I got a new toy on Christmas. The black levels are, in my opinion, way better than the Sony 940D, and that crisp vivid picture wows me everyday. I will also tell you that the picture seems to get even better over time. I'll be getting a sound bar for an enhanced overall experience but it really isn't a must; the sound is pretty good on its own.This was a great buy. Thank you hubby:)

I needed to upgrade to a 65" from my previous Samsung 50" led . The picture is incredible through RCN Cable even though they do not broadcast in 4k. I use the TV to view video filmed through my Go Pro at 4k and its incredible , Colors are vibrant and sharp in just standard mode , The TV is also used for XBOX One ( Non 4k Unit ) and is amazing , It even has a game mode to correct some game play features for example before if you were playing pinball on an LED the flippers would be delayed , responding late , Same here until you switch to game mode and it corrects it . I also watch video filmed through my Canon 5D Mark III ( Non 4K Body ) and its as sharp , vibrant and perfect as expected . The TV is extremely thin , If you lean the Top of TV to the ground face first to remove the stand , The TV will flex . So make sure you are careful removing the supplied TV stand when mounting to a wall bracket . Con / The only thing I am bothered by is the Power Cord connection at the rear of the TV is very loose and falls out when I move the TV with the wall bracket . Other than that , I love this TV , My last Samsung lasted me 9 years and gave it my folks because they needed a TV other than that I never had an Issue and I am sure this will last me some time with no compromising with the picture

This 9000 series is amazing it's a step down from the 9800 but it's perfect. The clarity makes everything look picture perfect. The UPscaling is 10 times better and faster. The true4k definition is unbelievable. I have it paired with the Samsung 950 sound bar for true atmos sound and it's phenomenal. I thank Evelyn at the Glendale los Feliz store in Cali for being and amazing team member and helping me with such an amazing and extravangant tv.
