Let’s start with a quick round up. This is the best all-round TV. Hands down. Movies, gaming, sports... it’ll handle anything you can throw at it and look great doing it (try not to actually throw stuff, it’s just a figure of speech). No surprise when it’s got 4K resolution, Quantum Dot Color, Dolby Vision HDR, 120Hz native panel, Full Array Local Dimming Zones, anti-glare panel and powerful 1,500 nit peak brightness. What does all that mean? It’s like gazing at the sun melting into the Mediterranean Sea from Ibiza’s coolest bars. But sitting on your couch. At home. Then for gaming, we added Variable Refresh rate, Auto Low Latency Mode and FreeSync Premium to make the most of the latest generation gaming platforms. Even if you don’t know what half this stuff means, one look at the picture and you’ll want it.

  • 4K ULED™: Like 4K great, but better. The 55U8G has our exclusive ULED technologies. They boost color, contrast, brightness, motion...we could go on. It’s the TV your old TV wants to be.
  • Dolby Vision™• Dolby Atmos®: Dolby Vision HDR picture and Dolby Atmos sound are cinema technology for your home. They provide amazing realism you can see and hear in every scene.
  • Peak Brightness/Full Array Local Dimming Zones: Let’s start with the science. Anything over 500 nits is extremely good. This is up to 1500 nits peak brightness across 132 local dimming zones. A picture that’s brighter and perfectly lit in any light condition.
  • Quantum Dot Wide Color Gamut: See over one billion shades. Quantum Dot produces purer, richer, more brilliant and accurate colors than a regular LCD TV. We could get into the science. But it’s a lot easier to say it makes every day look like the 4th of July.
  • Ultra Motion and 120Hz Native refresh rate: Ultra Motion removes the digital ‘noise’ that can affect moving objects. Everything you see is exceptionally clear. The 120Hz native refresh rate means smoother gaming with pictures that keep up with your play.
  • Game Mode Pro: All the most advanced gaming tech, all in this TV. HDMI 2.1 inputs recognize gaming sequences to automatically adjust settings for smooth, uninterrupted play. The automatic low-latency mode, variable refresh rate and FreeSync minimize input lag, screen jitter, and frame tearing.
  • IMAX Enchanced: IMAX Enhanced brings the cinema experience home. It combines digitally remastered 4K HDR content and DTS audio technologies with the best consumer products and streaming platforms. Built for people who want a more premier, at-home experience.
