Lebih maklumat tentang CK Builders Concept Sdn BhdThe Samsung TU8500 (UE50TU8500) is the mid-range LED TV in Samsung’s more affordable Crystal Dynamics range, intended for those after a big screen TV that won’t break the bank.
It doesn’t match the picture quality of Samsung’s entry-level QLEDs – especially in HDR – but it’s competitive price, developed feature set and intuitive UI means it’s a fabulous option for its target market. The obvious downsides are the lack of Dolby Vision support and underpowered speakers.
Design
- Easy to set up
- Discreet design
- Twin remote control options
The Samsung TU8500 will slot discreetly into most living rooms without becoming a focal point. Like most TVs it’s a rectangular design with an attachable V-shape stand and downward-firing speakers .
If you took away the Samsung branding, it could easily be mistaken for any other £600 telly, which is no bad thing. The only thing that’ll attract buyers’ eyes is the TV’s price, with Samsung offering plenty of screen real estate for the money.
Setup is pretty simple thanks to the easy to attach stand which simply tasks you with connecting the stand to a base unit, then attaching it to the rear of the TV using the supplied screws.
There are also twin control options to choose from. One is a bog standard TV remote full of numerical keys and shortcuts, and the other is a more modern choice, with a basic touchpad and stripped down key inputs. We liked the more modern control for its simplicity, but both are suitably intuitive.
Features
- Comprehensive range of smart apps
- Supports SmartThings for added connectivity
- Only three HDMI inputs
What separates the TU8500 from competing TVs at this price is its robust feature set.
Samsung’s Tizen OS features the widest selection of apps on a TV, featuring the likes of Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Britbox, NOW TV, Apple TV, BT Sport, as well as platform exclusives in Apple Music. There’s no Freeview Play, but Samsung does have all the UK catch-up apps installed, and there’s Samsung’s TV Plus for watching a selection of TV channels.
Samsung’s SmartThings platform is available and has a variety of benefits. It offers the ability to stream your phone or tablet’s screen to the TV in a similar fashion to Google Chromecast. This functionality means you can stream smaller streaming services, such as CrunchyRoll and Shudder, which don’t have native apps on the platform.
There’s also the cool Multiview function. This lets you project your smartphone screen as a window on the TV. It sounds gimmicky, but has quite a few uses. One is gaming, where you can run a tutorial or Discord video chat window, saving the need to glance between screens. Another is for remote movie nights. Like Discord while gaming, you can power up a little window with the video chat, letting you chat away with participants without having to switch between screens.
The Ambient mode is another nice touch, which lets you turn the TV into a virtual picture frame when it’s not in use.
Though I find LG’s WebOS more intuitive, the TU8500’s UI works well for users to navigate. All services and apps are housed in a convenient launch bar with tiles for each service or menu screen.
All of its connections are placed on the rear panel: 3x HDMI, 2x USB, analogue video and stereo inputs, plus optical audio and an Ethernet socket. This may be a minor annoyance for those planning to add or swap out systems and sources, with more expensive TVs offering side-facing connections. For those that want to forgo wires, there’s built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.
Performance
- Good showcase for 4K content
- Limited brightness with HDR content
- Adequate sound quality
A £600 TV is never going to mix it with QLED or OLED, but Samsung’s Crystal UHD is pretty impressive for the money.
Crystal UHD is a clever bit of tech that aims to improve picture quality using a custom twin LED backlighting system. Unlike traditional LED TVs, which generally use a single backlight, Crystal UHD pairs two panels running at different kelvin counts (5000k and 2000k).
According to Samsung, this gives the TV improved contrast and punchier images. And with real world use, once you get the TV setup properly, I found the tech does offer better picture quality than most affordable/mid-range LED sets.
