Samsung - 65" Class (64.5" Diag.) - LED - 2160p - Smart - 3D - 4K Ultra HD TV

I bought the 65" Samsung JS8500 4K TV for Christmas and I have to admit that it has exceeded my expectations. I did the assembly and setup myself because I wasn't sure where I was going to locate the set when it was delivered. I called a friend to help me in moving the boxed TV to the lower level of my house. Luckily, he had helped his uncle assemble his Samsung TV earlier in the year. Attaching the stand was simple enough, however, I did have an issue getting the remote to pair to the TV. After many fruitless attempts to make it work, the TV and the remote just would not pair up. Apparently, the Samsung that his uncle had bought did not have this step in pairing his remote to his TV, so, my friend did not know why my remote wouldn't pair up. The problem was that the instruction manual did not supply enough details to properly describe the pairing procedure. After installing the batteries in the remote, you have to press two tiny square buttons just above the batteries (with the battery case open) when you are pairing the remote to the TV. You also have to cycle through the TV Setup program to the Remote Pairing Section (this was described in the instructions). When you just look at the open battery case area, it is extremely difficult to determine that there are the two square buttons there because the plastic buttons are the same color as the rest of the remote. And, if you look very carefully above the buttons, there are embossed lettering telling you to press the two buttons to pair the remote to the TV, Unfortunately, the raised letters in the plastic are the same color as the rest of the remote too!! Luckily, my friend found the buttons and paired the remote to the TV. Once this was done, I scrolled through the menu to see all of the features available on this unit. I have to admit that the clarity of the picture and the vibrant colors of the screen was fantastic right out of the box. It still amazes me how brilliant the colors are and how well the TV upscales my HD Channels. Of course there are times when you can see that the images are not 4K, however, they are few and it does not diminish the overall experience of watching a truly great 4K TV. I have run High Definition video files through the One Connect via USB and the subsequent images are as close to 4K as you can get. I would definitely recommend this TV to everyone. If you keep waiting for the next great TV, you'll end up missing out on all of the enjoyment that this fantastic 4K TV will provide you. I am so glad that I bought this TV.

The picture is excellent. Also, the 3D on this Samsung is excellent. The Alfred Hitchcock 3D movie (Dial M for Murder) was very good – almost negligible flaws (ghosting, blurry, cross talk, artifacts - whatever). This 3D Hitchcock on LG was unbelievably bad and really unwatchable - on the active Sony it had a moderate/considerable amount of flaws. There’s a 3D Hugo problem section, right after the automaton draws the rocket in moon picture, that has terrible blurriness on the LG – but, it’s no problem on this Samsung. I like the remote control – the slim size makes it easy to hold, and makes it easier to point and click – only thing missing is a scroll wheel, which would sure be nice (like the LG has). The Tizen operating system seems fine – easy to use – my main negative is you can only pin 9 apps to the bottom smart hub menu – why can’t it continue to the right indefinitely like the LG does. Also, it’s nice that you can customize the “My Apps” menu, but I don’t like not being able to delete what it calls “the basic set of apps on your device can’t be deleted” – it really bugs me that I can’t delete the junk I don’t want. The top “Menu123” choices seem somewhat confusing, illogical, and redundant – wish you could customize that also. I've attached what I'd rate 4 TVs that I've experience recently.

It's like a movie theater at home with the size and the perfect picture that just explodes your viewing experience!!! I did have a bad 1st set with flashlight issues but got it exchanged with a perfect 1 that does not have that issue!! The Best buy Warranty is a must for any new tv, I've had more than my share of all brand tv's and have had issues with alot, so don't ever believe just because u have spent thousands of dollars on a set that there can't be issues, because I'm here to tell u they all can and do! Buy the Geek Squad Warranty!!!! I love this Samsung 65'Js8500!!!!

This was my 2nd option to buy. After many fails with the Sony 900c I decided this Samsung was going to be next. I'm glad I got this tv. It's amazing pictures in dark films like Vikings, Supernatural are really really crisp. Blu-Ray, 3D is amazing. Sign up for UltraFlix and look through the free content. Brings this 4K to life. Easy set up with the mini box. All wires are out of sight.

We are blown away with the quality of the picture of many programs. The upscaling is great and it beats my plasma TV, hands down. I can't wait until 4K programming becomes available.

There's nothing much to say about this TV except that it is so awesome!!! We got it on super sale. Ahhh getting this TV on a super sale was a nightmare like we had to call customer service and managers of different stores to get it because some bestbuy employee sold my tv to somebody else when it is supposed to be picked up. But other than that, it was all worth it! So happy with this purchased. Pictures look so clear, and I love how it is being detected by my samsung note. I can do Screen mirroring and watch videos from my phone to the TV so the whole family can watch without worrying about connecting or bluetooth and all sort of things. Oh and if they say you'll get 2 3Dgalsses don't believe them,, there's only 1 3d glasses included in the box. ( Unless we got screwed )We haven't use the 3d yet but I'm pretty sure it'll be awesome. Love love my new TV!!!

Best 4k TV out ! Love it ! Sleek style best look and picture on the market ! Look at the picture this is a 65 inch so if it's going in living room anything smaller would not work !

I know silly title but when your friends come over and make multiple comments about how amazing your new TV is, that really speaks for it. The picture is great, you know those scenes in movies that the screen just looks black but you know it's not... They are crystal clear. The remote with its Wii like pointer was neat, we can plug in cameras and iPhones and show pictures to a group. Also it was so thin it was a breeze to hang. Overall the purchase was great. I wasn't sure about the silver frame but don't notice it now. Glad we got it and even better we got a great deal.
