![]() | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.

| My un55c8000 | August - 15 - 2010 | ||
![]() by Mauro Simone from Fresno, CA This TV is excellent. It has a great clear picture. I was supprised about some of the features that it has that I didn't even know about. I found that I could hook it up wireless to my home network amd get a lot of internet apps. I also have my Directv dvr receiver connect wireless to my network and can record HD programs and store them and play back whenever I want. And of coarse the 3d, it is amazing. | |||
| Great TV but ... | August - 15 - 2010 | ||
![]() by Y. Ning (music dork) from NJ USA This TV is great overall, got a promotion price so paid much less than current price. It is bright, slim, light, and feature-rich. Love it but can't give it 5 stars because: Seems Samsung has difficulties to find a frame strong enought for this TV, the stainless steel frame is easily bent in production. I received the first TV and 10 inches from the left upper corner the frame was bent considerably, from side or back I can see it bent backward. Amazon was able to provide a replacement, however, this one still comes with a tiny problem the frame was slightly bent in the middle, I can see the frame from side. It doesn't seem like caused by shipping, more likely a design defect that the frame is thin and is not strong enough to keep in shape. | |||
| Great Set | August - 12 - 2010 | ||
![]() by Working Man I got this TV with the Amazon Package of TV, Blue Ray, and 3D Starter kit. Good value for the dollars. The shipper brought the set into the house, unboxed it, and put it on the entertainment center. They also hooked up the cable and power. When we first turned it on we were blown away by the clarity of the picture. The picture looked like it was almost 3D even with regular non-blue ray DVD's. But after a day we realized what we were seeing was the actors against the green screen background which was annoying. The contrast comes set at 100. We adjusted that down to get the picture the way we like. The 3D movie that comes with the package was fun to watch. We did get a bit of a headache after watching it. I wouldn't buy the set just for the 3D, there aren't enough 3D movies out yet. The set by itself is a good enough reason. We get our netflix streaming through our Blue ray player or our Wii, so don't notice the lack of Wi-Fi on the set. | |||
| Wonderful TV - Best Picture I have Seen! | August - 09 - 2010 | ||
![]() by Robert (ROCC) from Kingston, Jamaica I am a very regular puchaser from Amazon.com, I recently purchased this Samsung TV a couple of weeks ago from a local dealer here only because I got a longer warranty. Otherwise, I would have purchased from Amazon.com. I am writing this review, to hopefully help those others looking for a TV in this price range. I was skeptical at first purchasing a Samsung TV, having owned only Sony and Hitachi TV's, which have been pretty good. I did alot of research before puchasing this unit, talked to friends who had Samsung TV's themselves, looked at all the ratings and reviews on the Net, went to the store and looked at the 7000 series (because they didn't have a 8000 in stock) - and was Blown Away! WOW! the 7000 had the best picture that I had ever seen in a Television Set Period, and I am a very picky person - all reviews said that the 8000 should be even better. I went ahead and purchased it. I am very glad that I did! After setting everything up and calibrating the settings - very important - (went close to the Calibration settings that [...] has). I loaded Avatar into the Blu-Ray Player @ 1080p/24 and it was Amazing to say the Least. I don't believe there can be a better picture. Everything was crisp, clear, and life-like! Like a window to another world. I did notice with the Auto-Motion set to the default that things were a bit TOO crisp and life-like, almost like someone filmed it with a HD Camera, and you were actually watching Raw footage. I describe it like a "soap-opera" effect. After turning the Judder to 0, and the Blur to 10, in Auto-Motion, there was a very happy medium - Perfect Movie Watching Bliss! I find myself wanting to replay every Blu-Ray Movie I own, just to see it on this TV. The viewing angle of this TV is like all other LED, LCD, or Projection TV's, Not optimal - the picture does get a bit lighter from an extreme angle and that's it - still very very watchable, it is much better than the at-an-angle picture of my Hitachi Projection TV. It is not a reason to bash this Product. The black levels are amazing, the Uniformity could be a bit better in All white backgrounds, but that is extremely rare and hardly noticeably. Like most people I do the abundance of my serious Movie watching sitting in line with the Center of the Screen anyway! The sound from the speakers is great, once you tune it, by default the speakers put out a bit more bass than the enclosures can handle, so a bit of vibration is produced, but after tuning, it was pefect! You really need a HD picture to see the glory of this television, a regular cable signal will not do the job, it will highlight every flaw in the picture. The Widgets and the Internet worked great with the Wi-Fi Adapter, Facebook worked fine, and the Utube loading speed of videos where good. I love checking my stock figures, while not having to break away from the show that I'm watching. The remote control could be a bit more tactile, I find myself having to look at the keys before pressing, and sometimes pressing the wrong key when playing games, because of the flat keys. I have yet to view anything in 3D, I am waiting for the prices of the equipement to drop before I do. I didn't buy this TV really for the 3D feature it was just an nice bonus to have for the future. Now I can not speak on the Longevity of this product as yet, because I have only had it a few weeks, but I will definitely add to this review as the months go by. Also, I will try to post a picture of my setup tonight for all those interested. So to summarize, if you are looking for the crispest life-like picture that you can imagine, look no further you have found it in the Samsung UN55C8000. | |||
