      Ryan,

      Thank you for sharing your review of the Samsung TU8000 4K Smart TV. I am very sorry that your experience with this TV was less than perfect.

      Our 2020 TU8000 Series features Crystal UHD processor, 4K AI upscaling, HDR, Game Enhancer and more, all designed to give you the best in dazzling, crystal-clear images and rich digital experience.

      https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00079295/

      In addition, the image quality on your screen depends on the source and the connection.
      HDMI cables are recommended for optimal HD viewing; and when possible, 4K content will provide the best picture quality. The TV will upscale as best as possible any content sent to it. The closer the signal is to 4K, the better it will look coming out.

      The quality of the streaming content depends largely on the speed of your internet, as most content providers have adaptive streaming that will automatically adjust the image quality based on the network bandwidth.
