Samsung - 49" Class (48.5" Diag.) - LED - 2160p - Smart - 4K Ultra HD TV with High Dynamic Range

I visited 3 different Best Buy stores. 1 of them gave me correct information (Utica, MI). At the Southfield, MI store and Madison Heights, MI store, I was told that the MU-8000 was a replacement and an upgrade over the KS-8000. It may be a replacement, but it is definitely not an upgrade. No Q-Dots in the MU; the 49" is only a 120hz (which operates at a 60hz) on the MU. Not a bad TV, but the MU-8000 series doesn't hold up to last years KS-8000 series. In my opinion, the MU-8000 is more comparable to the KS-7000. Again, not a bad TV, I just prefer the KS. I'm returning this TV as I was able to order a KS-8000 49" from Best Buy. the 120hz on the MU vs the 240hz on the KS is a difference maker for me. One thing I was impressed on is the Black quality. Very deep on the Blacks. Very nice design. Also like the one connect (HUB). Good way to hide cables.

I did a lot of research before purchasing and I am glad that I made the decision to buy up for a 4K model. Setup was easy to my home theatre system, intuitive menu. I love the speech recognition in the remote. Can easily change channels on my DIRECTV receiver with a few voice prompts. Color quality is great once you find the optimal settings, which took some tweaking over a few weeks. My only negative is that reds are very bright and I've adjusted every possible setting with little success of getting exactly to my liking. May be that my old device was just not as good so I'm not used to such vivid tones. Streaming 4K content through Amazon and Netflix is amazing. Overall a great experience so far.

Samsung has truly built themselves up with a reputation for quality. Still bested in the video realm by their rival Sony, yet manage to manufacture a truly great product that's exciting to watch. The color and resolution of this model is awesome! The color black is incredible. Only thing is I'm not very happy with the TV speakers. At times the audio is scratchy and distorted. I tried to adjust the audio on the TV And my source units but the range of sound quality from this TVs speakers are limited. I believe you cant really expect too much from TV speakers which is why it's always good to invest in a high quality sound bar or a surround sound system. Nevertheless, because I feel they could have and should have done better with their onboard speakers, in giving a 4 star instead of 5. But as I said, the picture quality is very superb and you should be amazed. Truly Wow!

The Good: *Picture is amazing! *Easy to mount on wall. *Good user interface and remote. The Bad: * SmartHub is a pain to locate. SmartHub cord is either too long (need to wrap up behind the screen) or too short (won't reach the cabinet with equipment), and you can't buy a shorter/longer one! * No API for remote access - need to use Samsung remote or IR learning remote - No network control The Ugly: Finish on the bottom bezel easily rubs off! BE CAREFUL when mounting!

The purchase of this new UHD television has been wonderful addition to my home and my television viewing experience. The ease in set up and use is great for a senior.

I may have to get a second t.v. because my wife won't let me watch what I want to see. When I can watch it, the picture is great, especially sports and live events.

Absolutely stunning image. Upgraded from an old LCD 1080P screen and the difference is night and day. The 4K up-scaling works amazingly on both TV and gaming. Gaming is where this TV shines. The up-scaling works wonders on gaming and brings out the true power of current game systems. With the HDR on the TV, the depth and range of colors is wonderful. The TV also has a gaming mode for gaming systems which helps improve the quality of the gaming experience. The Smart Hub is a little crowded up can be cleaned up if you want to. Lots of options readily available to apps. The remote isn't that great. It has too few buttons for how much it requires you to use it. I'd recommend getting a good universal remote for it to get the most out of the TV. Overall if you're looking to upgrade to 4K, this is going to be a solid choice. Its not an OLED or QLED but you're also not spending that amount. Great entry level 4K TV. The HDR makes it worth it!

This replaced a Sony plasma television I had for twelve years . I didn't think is could be replaced with a better picture, I was wrong, I'm still learning all of the featuers and options
