A:AnswerHi JohnD! You can definitely have a great gaming experience on this TV. HDR10+ and Auto Low Latency Mode (Auto Game Mode) are available on all 3 HDMI ports for this series. The “HDMI In 2” port additionally supports eARC.
However, if you are looking to game at 4K@120fps (FRL) with the next gen gaming consoles, take a look at the Samsung QLED Q70T Series and up. These series in 55" and larger offer 4K@120fps on HDMI 4, as well as have Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and FreeSync.

A:AnswerHi Randy! You will not be able to pause or record to live TV directly to this TV. You will need to use an OTA (over air) DVR like one of these: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?id=pcat17071&st=over+the+air+dvr . The AU8000 includes Samsung's smart remote with voice control for a simplified remote experience. The AU8000 features the Universal Guide allowing you to easily find new content and where to watch it. ^Tim

A:AnswerWe have recently installed one of each. Both are connected through their own Marantz home theatre to a BluRay, a Directv receiver, and other inputs, and both feed their audio to the Marantz via optical. Both receive Netflix and Prime through the same wifi connection. They are installed in different rooms ,which precludes a side to side comparison, but we see no discernible difference in audio, video or features.
A:AnswerNOT an answer! Where are they located! Up high? Down low? In the middle? Behind the screen? What size are the speakers! 1”? 2”? 3”? How many speakers? 2? 4? 6?
A:AnswerHi Retired! Samsung TVs do not feature a 3.5mm connection for headphones. However, the AU8000 along with other Samsung UHD TVs feature built in Bluetooth allowing you to wirelessly connect to a compatible pair of Bluetooth headphones. ^Tim
A:AnswerHi JayJay! The AU8000 supports HDMI ARC, digital optical audio, and Bluetooth audio technology. If your existing soundbar can accept a Bluetooth signal you will be able to connect it to the TV. ^Tim
