Reviews
Customers are saying
Customers are impressed with the picture quality and size of the 85” Class DU6950 Series Crystal UHD 4K Smart Tizen TV (2024). However, some users experienced issues with the TV's functionality, including occasional freezing, reboots, and Wi-Fi connectivity problems. A limited number of HDMI ports was also a common complaint among some customers. Despite these drawbacks, many found the large screen size to be a significant advantage.

Good for the price
The price-to-quality ratio is good. The image quality is generally good, though not outstanding, but for the price, it's not bad at all. The audio, however, is poor, but this can be easily fixed with an external speaker system. I recommend it if you're looking for a large screen at an affordable price.

Absolutely amazing huge screen!
bought this Samsung 85” TV and the experience has been incredible. The picture quality is incredibly sharp, the colors are vibrant, and the deep blacks make watching movies or shows feel like being in a theater. The size is perfect for my living room it really fills the space and draws you into every scene. The built-in sound is decent for everyday use, though I’d recommend a soundbar for a full home theater experience. Samsung’s interface is intuitive and fast, and streaming apps run smoothly. Overall, if you’re looking for a massive screen with excellent picture quality, this Samsung will not disappoint. Totally worth every penny!

Amazing picture with even better economic price.
This tv has it all. The picture so clear, you can see the face wrinkles and goosebumps. The 4k resolution makes you feel like you’re there. The slim size of the tv makes the weight light and not an eye sore on the wall. The price was unbeatable and was definitely worth it. Economically and entertainingly makes sense. Definitely buying another one.
