It’s true, this is Samsung’s first 60 Inch flat screen TV. Sizes that are already out there within the 8000 range embrace forty-six, fifty-five, and sixty-five inch screens.

So what is the purpose behind this? Well, there was a “hole” in the Samsung display size between the 55 and 65 inch screens, but…my feeling is the purpose behind this move is the Sony XBR at 60 inches which has sold very well indeed. So, having missed a trick, I believe Samsung felt they wanted to plug the gap.

The Samsung UN60D8000 3D LED TV has been designed to give a strong viewing experience on its sixty inch screen. It produces full high-definition images at 1080p in both two and three dimensions. It’s “Broad Color Enhancer Plus” know-how makes colors and images remarkably vivid. Further technical advances with “Ultra Clear Panel” also help coloration brightness and produce a highly defined contrast. It also helps defeat that age-old flat screen drawback of picture degradation from glare. The result’s a really gorgeous image that has a very definite “wow” factor the first time you watch it.

In addition to producing extraordinarily vibrant colors, this LED TV additionally ensures deep, rich black tones and vivid whites. To make your contrast even better this Samsung 3D TV utilizes “Micro Dimming Technology” to shut down the black areas of the screen producing a 25,000,000:1 contrast ratio…the best Samsung provide.

Another innovation incorporated into this 3D LED TV, to boost picture quality, is “Clear Motion Rate 960”. Samsung have deeply researched refresh rates, picture processor speed, and backlight know-how to supply televisions with an incredibly Clear Motion Rate. This means that they’re capable of handling high-pace images with no visible distortion or degradation of quality. This is definitely a push forward in Tech from Samsung, designed to provide them an “edge” over manufacturers such as Vizio and LG. Nevertheless, it’s still “active” 3D expertise versus the quickly increasing momentum of passive 3D. 55au7700

The technology contained throughout this 3D TV is designed to offer you the optimum viewing experience in either 3D or 2D mode. You get free active shutter 3D glasses with the TV (just two pairs) so you’re set up for proper 3D from the outset. Certainly active shutter glasses have had not had the best press (significantly from spectacle wearers) but Samsung say they have updated the design and they are much lighter and more comfy now. Samsung also say they now fit over normal glasses easily. They also have an extended battery life, another innovation that was badly needed.

So, this TV undoubtedly provides an incredible viewing experience, but it is more than a simple TV, it is a complete entertainment centre. It is a web prepared 3D LED TV with inbuilt Wi-Fi. It’s Skype enabled, that means that video calls can be made with all of the clarity that the television’s extensive technology delivers (if Skype stays robust which it has done too well lately).

And this TV is a “Smart” TV there is a huge downloadable library of content straight available from the Internet. This offers you a large catalogue of films, music and social media to plug into. The set additionally benefits from its own integral Internet browser for surfing. Any media which is DLNA enabled can be seamlessly used through the TV. And you can transfer gadgets content wirelessly to the Set utilizing Samsung’s AllShare technology.In the unlikely event that you may wish to connect up something else…there are the usual 4 HDMI inputs plus 3x USB ports an Ethernet and pretty much everything else you might need.

The Samsung UN60D8000 3D LED TV is a continuation of Samsung’s impressive array of high quality television sets. Smart TVs are definitely more than just a TV…they act as complete entertainment hubs in the home. And this particular Samsung TV includes the full gamut of options that anyone could expect. No matter what you do with it, this TV comes up trumps, from Sport to Internet, from 2D to 3D it delivers on every level and to an extremely highly indeed.
