There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I went to the new Sony XBR55X850D TV from a Samsung UN55H7150 TV, which I LOVED. Really wanted in on the 4K/HDR hype, what with the PS4k/4.5/Neo coming out later this year (supposedly). So, I decided to upgrade my 2014 1080p Samsung H7150, which I absolutely loved and had ZERO problems with. I left a review here on the Sony TV, which I was really dissatisfied with due to the terrible Gaming mode and jittery backgrounds/cursor and other odd effects (even on non-Gaming mode).
I spent almost 3 days calibrating and changing the settings on the Sony TV, mixing different options for the motion controls, while trying to keep input lag as low as possible without having to resort to the awful Gaming mode. After this and having called Sony Support 3 times, which I was told there's no other settings that would help, I gave up. Let's just say I hated that TV so bad that I drove 1 hour and 15 min (one-way) to the next state to exchange it for this Samsung TV (the UN55KS8500 curved model). Best. Decision. Ever.
I had done a lot of online research prior to buying the Sony TV and then this new Samsung, when I took the Sony back. Long story short, this Samsung model (the KS8000 and KS8500) are considered the #1 TV's in their price and size categories.
So, what makes this TV so great? Quite a few things, really. While I've owned Samsung TV's (even my computer monitor that I type this on is a Samsung) exclusively in the past, I'm open-minded and not biased (hence why I was willing to give the Sony a try...). Setup - out of the box, getting it on the stands, the simplified remote - all wonderful and really high quality. Although I'm not too terribly a fan of the "feet" style stands. I much preferred the stand on my old H7150 Samsung and especially the Sony TV, above. But, it does it's job and has a minimal footprint. Additionally, the stands do not require to be screwed into the TV, just pushed and "clicked" in. Also very easy to remove. The ONLY thing I noticed physically about the TV that had me worried is the input panel on the back, which the One Connect box and Ethernet cable plug into - it's a little loose and wiggly. However, we think this is on purpose, as to accommodate thicker cables, if needed. Once I got my Ethernet cable (Amazon Cat6) plugged in, it was snug and had zero wiggle. If this really is the case, GREAT thinking, Samsung!!
Now, for the picture. And Gaming mode! Out of the box, the picture was super bright and colorful. I knew right off that I would need to scale it back some on the backlight/brightness levels. Got the PS4 plugged in (via the One Connect hub box). No signal. We couldn't figure it out. However, after about 5-10 min of plugging and unplugging, it finally worked - didn't figure out what the problem was, but it hasn't done it any more. Probably just initialization woes.
I tested the Standard video mode with Dark Souls III. Ugh, the input lag! It's greater than 100ms and VERY noticeable! But that's what Gaming mode is for, right? Switched over. Input lag went down to about 20ms. PERFECT. Also, the picture quality difference was hardly noticeable! Spent a few hours calibrating the picture, reducing sharpness and other settings. Now, the picture (color-wise) is equal to or better than the Sony I had and that I exchanged for this one. Some games exhibit a little background jitter, but it's NOWHERE near as bad as the Sony TV. You get adjusted to it shortly. I chalk it up to the nature of 4K/upscaling/new tech. Here in a few years, It'll probably be non-existent. I feel that Samsung has one of the better Gaming modes available on TV's currently. Highly recommended for all uses - Gaming/Movies/Television/Netflix, etc.
Also, I would like to add that the feature difference between this 2016 8000 series and the higher 9000 series is not worth the price difference. Get the 8000/8500 series and don't look back!
My settings in Game mode are as follows:
Backlight - 10
Brightness - 40
Contrast - 100 (default) I may try bumping this down to 95 or 90 and see if it's drastic or not.
Sharpness - 10 (the default setting resulted in really bad "texture flickering" in games...setting to 0-10 effectively resolves this issue)
Color - 50 (default)
Tint (G/R) - Middle (default)
HDMI Black Level - Normal (Make sure you change the PS4/Xbox One to FULL RGB settings, or you will get a washed out picture or crushed blacks)
Dynamic Contrast - Medium (default) ....High looks great for gaming as well
Color Tone - Standard (default)
All other settings not mentioned are set at their defaults. :-) Please also note that the pics taken are on game-mode and are pre-calibration.

I am happy with connectivity and availability of extending tech such as Samsung TV apps/Smart Hub, Samsung Smart View IOS app 2.01, Samsung device mirroring, WI-DI, Bluetooth, AC WIFI, 5V USB connector for external hard drive(Seagate Goflex), ability to play MKV and MP4 files.
LOVE the remote. Simple as it is...it does lots of heaving lifting. And the remote is "universal". I use it to control a Series 4 TIVO, Apple TV v4, OPPO Blue Ray Player. It has a daringly simple design but it behaves well. It is complementary to the Siri remote from ATV4. It is an intelligent solution instead of a remote with 60+ buttons. Good news is I replaced my lost remote for about $25 bucks. That might be the best feature of all. Having a keyboard would be convenient...but I can use an app or external Bluetooth keyboard for that.
Pain points. This is a newer TV...they appear to be fine tuning the firmware. I am fairly patient. They seem to come monthly. #2 Biggest pain, having to "reset" the TV several times to fix Smarthub issues such as Netflix hanging or Smart Hub User Interface loosing. Good news is that setup is pretty quick.
Biggest Pain Point. Since purchase, I have had trouble with HDMI 4 (ARC) port. I was never able to get a 2015 Samsung soundbar working correctly with the ARC port. The TV automatically changed sources back to HDMI 4 and whatever I had plugged into HDMI 4 port. I had assumed issue was soundbar. I tried a video device and found it also did the same thing. Newest behavior is the HDMI 4 (ARC) port completely dead. Hopefully a bad HDMI port was the cause of the entire issue I had. Spoke to Samsung via "Live Chat" 3 times. After a bevy of troubleshooting steps (including reset, firmware upgrade, unplug/replug power and one connect box), they are sending me a replacement "one connect" box. Issue was a pain, process of finding problem was a pain, however, being able to swap a tiny external box instead of hauling an entire TV to a service center is WONDERFUL. Fingers crossed that this fixes issue.
Spoke to 3 "Live Chat Techs". Some are remarkably better than others. 3rd one was charming, helpful, listened to problems, and gave me satisfactory conclusion.
Top reviews from other countries
Picture from any angle is clear. Love the curved screen when I sit at 45 degrees I can still enjoy the great picture.
The analog channels show up fuzzy which was a surprise.
The digital channels look great.
Have not tried any Blue-ray movies yet.
The remote synced up very easily with all our HDMI inputs (Blue Ray player, XBox, Cable Box). No codes, just point and wait a few seconds.
My wife loves the voice interaction from the remote. Works great for her, but not so great for me.
Has Netflix and several other internet based services, so I can actually get rid of my Ruko (maybe).
Hooked up to our Wifi with ease. Even connected to the 5 ghz band when other items would not. Great internal antenna I guess.
Channel scrolling is smoother than our 4 year old LCD.
The speaker at the bottom of the television actually gives good sound and is loud enough for our small family room 18x12' .
I did not bother hooking up the old sound bar, as we did not have the IR cable and this unit requires it to attach. But it is really not needed.
I liked the HDMI hub. Now I have a lot less cables hanging from the television. They are all tucked away and out of site.Great thinking from Samsung.
I am concerned about touching the screen now. Looks and feels very solid, but the warnings about not to touch and how to clean were very specific. Now it is mounted there is no need to touch it, except to remove dust.
If mounting to the wall make sure you pick a strong wall mount. You will need 2 people to lift this television.
When unpacking the box, turn upside down, cut the bottom tape and open the flaps, then flip over and pull up the open box. Make sure to look for the cable connector and power cable in the Styrofoam. This way the television stays upright in the Styrofoam while you connect your wall mount clips to the back.
We mounted this with Echogear Full Motion Articulating TV Wall Mount ECHOGEAR Full Motion Articulating TV Wall Mount Bracket for most 37-70 inch LED, LCD, OLED and Plasma Flat Screen TVs w/ VESA patterns up to 600 x 400 - 16'' Extension - Includes 6' HDMI Cable - EGLF1-BK
This product was worth the price we paid. Even on sale. Seller was helpful when shipping was slow. Great communication.
UPDATE
Have issues connecting to internet. See DNS 8.8.8.8 solution.
There is limited 4K HDR content available, but once you get your hands on it, it is really amazing picture quality. You have to see it to believe it.
Only downside to it so far is not being able to use my wireless keyboard with it. It connects to tv, but it has limited functionality. Basically only keys that exist on factory remote are also working on keyboard. But for example qwerty keys are not working, which is really bad given that it would be much more convenient to type with full qwerty keyboard. It might be me not knowing how to connect it properly, but for now, it's kind of frustrating.
