    Great tv overall. Easy setup and easy to navigate. The sound is great on this tv but I’d still recommend throwing in a soundbar for that top notch sound quality and base (specifically for movies)

    This tv is very nice and picture quality is beautiful. It took me a while to learn how to use the remote. Pushing the remote buttons upward and downward was not what I expected. I had to have someone show me how to use the remote. So far so good.

    The picture quality is good along with the sound. Though you may require a soundbar or an external speaker for proper sound. I had a good experience with it. Been nearly a month. The only downside is that it has limited apps to install and does not give you full screen when casting from the phone

    This TV is good. Picture quality is phenomenal. The operating system is slow and lags at times. Added an AppleTV and works great. Sound seems to be lacking will most likely have to add a sound bar.

      Hi Badgers117,

      Thanks for your purchase and feedback on the AU8000 TV. I have a few suggestions that may improve your experience.

      To ensure performance is fully optimized, please ensure your TV is running the latest firmware. Go to Settings > Support > Software Update.

      Next, we will utilize the self-diagnostic tool, which further optimizes performance, checks memory, frees up unused cached memory, and closes background apps. Go to Settings > Support > Device Care > Start Device Care.

      Additionally, there are several sound settings you can adjust to suit your personal sound preferences. Change the Sound Mode by going to Settings > Sound > Sound Mode

      You can also customize the sound with Expert Settings by going to Settings > Sound > Expert Settings

      I hope this helps you enjoy your experience. If you need more help, Samsung is here for you. Please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8 AM - 12 AM EST, seven days a week. Our LiveChat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.

    We moved from a similar sized but older 1080p TV. The clarity and brightness were immediately noticeable. We've got a fairly bright living room and this shows great. Had to turn off motion smoothing, and if we were using a PS5 or Xbox I think it would be a bigger issue, but for streaming and the Switch it is great.
