Any comment/review on Samsung 65" TU8500? Not much review can be found online, nearest would be TU8000 which is deemed good "jack of all trade" budget TV. Thanks.

QUOTE(kkthen @ Jun 10 2020, 02:37 PM) Samsung has renamed their Premium UHD models and for 2020 we get the Crystal UHD naming which in all honesty feels more catchy even if their capabilities are far less capable than the Quantum Dots. The TU8500 is the highest Crystal TV you can find while it has only been announced for the UK and European markets. The first major change we find in the TU8500 is the use of Dynamic Crystal Display technology instead of Quantum Dots which means less accurate color reproduction. The TV is also less brightness capable according to the given rating. Thanks. Pretty much summarizes my research on this model. I think the main question is, would this TV be a reasonable purchase for less than RM4k, or is there better model to consider?Another downgrade we find is the use of the Crystal Processor 4K which comes with further reduced capabilities. Everything else is similar to the Q60T with the same audio system and smart functionality including Tizen and all it’s services. Specifications 4K UHD resolution (3,840 x 2,160) Dynamic Crystal Display technology Dual LED backlighting HDR HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG support Crystal Processor 4K 2CH 20W / Adaptive Sound Game Enhancer, Multi-View, Ambient Mode 3 x HDMI / 2 x USB ARC / eARC WiFi, Bluetooth v4.2 Tizen smart platform OneRemote TU8500 got dual led function, which tu8000 less. Samsung's new Dual LED technology, which adjusts the backlight's color tone according to the content, may have improved the contrast ratio, but there's no way for us to be certain. |

QUOTE(kkthen @ Jun 10 2020, 03:10 PM) Better get last year 2019 model . Price Will be cheaper. If you don't care HDR content. Any TV should do good Job. Can get 2020 model at 2019 price through connection, maybe RM300 more expensive but its fine I guess HDR is not great with this TV but I am replacing 6 years old LG LA7600 which does not have these bells and whistles, so it's still an upgrade any how |
