Customer Ratings & Reviews

No one told me when I bought it that there is no 4k content available. Pic is no better than my HD TV or maybe worse. Went out of town after I bought. 14 days later I couldn't return.

Check out cnet for advice calibrating, and u will love it. Still working through a few issues with dark areas looking very pixelated. Biggest downside is a lack of native 4k content.

Overall I have to say its a great TV. My only issue would be the color options for watching TV. Most non animated shows seem like a real live TV show which may be related to the HD.

This TV provides everything that a viewer needs to watch movies with excellent graphical capabilities.

Because the resolution of full HD you can watch movies in amazing detail !!

I like the Samsung TV's. Purchased the 65 inch tv 4K LG and had to turn it in because the colors were to dark. The Samsung TV's colors are much better than LG tv,s.

This tv works great in my game room. Only thing I need to check on is the remote. Seems it only works if it's pointed slightly down at the right hand lower corner.

I was a great tv and with the great price anyway I like best buy they always have a great deal

Great buy even though quite expensive. But after looking at this screen, I feel it's worth it

Elite Plus Great first one was damaged some how internally and Best Buy just swapped no ???

Great TV, but the price is too high. Especially since there isn't a lot of 4K content out there to watch.

While I don't like Samsung Phones, TV is a keeper!

Did not not meet my expectations. The picture quality is not the best, and it s not user friendly.

I love the TV. However, the newer model with HDR 1000 etc. is much better.

After seeing this in person at the local Best Buy, I decided to take the plunge and bring home the 65" UN65HU8550 on 04/16/14. Setting up the TV was easy, although two people were needed to lift this beast onto the stand. The setup menu was easy to navigate, and the system update only took 7 minutes over wifi. The picture has got to be the best I've seen! I'm not an A/V diehard, but I know when a picture looks vibrant and I can spot the issues. I ran my own personal non-scientific tests using Disney's Planes on a Sony BDP-S590 blu-ray player and the picture was fantastic. The level of detail was second to none, and there was no motion blur to speak of. During the scene where Dusty is flying in the thunderstorm at night, the black levels were the best I've seen on an LED tv--they looked like they would on a top-level plasma. The picture showed no light bleed or clouding during the lightning strikes, and the detail stayed crisp throughout. Test #1 passed with flying colors. I then tested the 3D with the previously mentioned blu-ray player using Star Trek: Into Darkness 3D. The tv comes with four sets of active 3D glasses. Again, setup was a breeze as it literally took pressing one button to pair the glasses with the tv. Watching Star Trek, I ran the scene where the Enterprise is battling with the Dreadnought in outer space. Overall the 3D was impressive. Some level of detail was lost on background objects in most scenes (as is expected when watching 3D), but the detail on objects that were the main focus of the scene were above & beyond better than I expected. You could literally count the hairs on Captain Kirk's head, in 3D no less! Again the black levels were fantastic and colors seem true to life. 4K was not tested as there is virtually no content out there yet. Pros: The picture quality is a huge plus on this TV. Oddly enough, the embedded speakers weren't half bad for the short time I had them on (not too "tinny" with decent mids and highs). Of course, if you're spending this much on a tv, you probably have a halfway decent sound system to run it through and won't use the speakers anyway (I know I won't be using them). Cons: The TV does not come with a One Connect box. All the online literature makes it look like it has one, but what it is really saying is that it is compatible with the One Connect for upgrades in the future. The owner's manual confirms this. Also, there is no camera for the gesture control--it is also sold separately. By no means are these deal breakers, just trying to clear up those items. Overall, if you spend the money on this thing, you'll be impressed.

This is the best television I have ever owned I wish I would have went bigger!!

Quite disappointed in the picture while watching cable. Watching BluRay is much better though.

Seems to be a nice TV, picture-wise. However, I can't recommend it since the apps stopped working a week after the TV was installed. It seems to be an internet connectivity issue but I haven't been able to get it fixed. Very frustrating...

Love the TV but the 3D function is not great. I'm have only streamed 3D movies so maybe it's different if you buy a 3D Blu-ray.

Even after 3 years this TV is working like a champ
