    If I had known that user Manuel was so incomplete, I would have asked many more questions on how to use and operate the TV.

    Good tv for the cost. My father-in-law had some trouble setting it up with all the smart features but once I explained everything it was better.

    The first TV was received and it had a screen imperfection. Best buy activated a return and replace without any issues. The new TV is great.

    I read the reviews & thought I was getting one hell of a deal. Turns out the saying "you get what you pay for" definitely applies here. The picture is super grainy no matter what we do with it & words are blurry & not crisp at all. I'm grateful to have a TV since my other one broke, but I'm extremely disappointed with this TV, especially after all my research & relying on it's reviews.

    • Brand response from Samsung

      YoMomma,

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
      Your TU8000 TV will upscale as best as possible any content sent to it. The closer your content is to 4K, the better the image will look on the screen.

      Here are some tips to help improve the picture clarity:
      1. HDMI cables are recommended for optimal HD viewing.

      2. If you have an analog cable box or satellite box, upgrade to a digital cable box or satellite box.

      3. Change the output resolution of your devices, such as digital broadcast receiver, IPTV, and
      set-top box to UHD or HD.

      4. Expand the reception range of the corresponding HDMI input signal in Input Signal Plus.
      Go to Settings- General- External Device Manager- Input Signal Plus

      If you need further assistance, please contact Samsung TV Support at:

    After owning this TV that I bought new at Best Buy for 18 months, the TV would not display a picture. The red light came on and off, but the screen remained black. I searched the internet and discovered that apparently many Samsung customers are having the same issue. Many had ossible solutions. None worked for my TV. I called Geek Squad and the referred me to Samsung Customer Support. Customer support had me do a few routine tasks with no result. They said I'd have to have their service center repair it. I am waiting for that call. I had a 50 inch LG TV that i used more than 12 hours a day. It lasted more tha five years. When it failed, i bought this TV. I thought a TV should last more than five years. I guess i was lucky with the LG TV. I do not recommend people buying Samsung TVs.

    This is the ultimate in TV viewing. I can say that the service was also terrific. If you have a surround sound system, that helps a lot.
