Artifacts
By BeatlesFan on Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2023
Hi, TV fans! I've had this 8K TV for a few weeks so I have a fairly good idea of what it can do. The only thing I don't like about it is that there are some artifacts when you use the motion-smoothing (which on this Samsung TV is called Picture Clarity). I go to Expert Settings and I use custom Picture Clarity. My Blur Reduction is set to maximum, or 10. My Judder Reduction is maximum, or 10. I leave the LED Clear Motion off because ironically, it turns the screen cloudy! And for Noise Reduction, I set it for Auto instead of off. I am a big fan of seeing movies and TV shows in a realistic way. Like real life. I don't like 24p judder. Some people insist on having their movies in the original 24p. I prefer to watch Bruce Willis running through explosions like I was right there. I don't want to see Bruce Willis running like I'm using a flip book and seeing frame by frame. (That's called judder by the way.) The people who love judder hate motion interpolation, so they mockingly call that look the "soap opera effect". I LIKE the soap opera effect. I like my 24 frames per second movies to appear like 30 frames per second. (Like video looks in the USA.) The only disappointment I have is because of some artifacts around the edges of objects that appear closer. For example, imagine 2 people in the front seat of a car driving across a green landscape with grass and trees. The camera is outside the driver's window and you can see the driver closer to you than you see the passenger. Beyond the passenger is the landscape going by in the passenger-side window. The artifacts occur around the edges of the two people because the microchip in this TV is still not fast enough to make the motion of the grass and the trees flawless. That's why there is a fuzzy, distracting area of green around the two relatively still people sitting in the car. I hope that Samsung is reading my review and can work on improving these artifacts. However, I am still very impressed with the Picture Clarity or motion interpolation that this microchip can do. It is better than my Sony XBR-65X850E. By the way, Samsung tells you that the microchip in this TV is the Neural Quantum Processor 8K with 20 neural networks. What Samsung doesn't tell you is where they get this microchip from, but I am pretty sure that it is the new MediaTek Pentonic 2000. Also, I would like to have a button on the tiny remote control that can turn off the picture on the TV so I can listen to the sound with the picture completely off. I can't do that with this Samsung TV. All I can do is turn the brightness down to zero but there is still a lot of light. Also, Samsung doesn't use Google's Android so there are many apps that you will not be able to download onto your Samsung TV like Paramount+. And you can't use Chromecast. There are some limitations which I have described, but the resolution is really good. There's not too much you can watch in 8K, but I'm ready for it! 😀

Used TV. No screws and no manual.
By Wilce on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2023
At first the TV looks great, but when you open the box, there ate pieces missing, like the manual, screws, scratches on the remote, white dust on the back of the TV, among other things. I’ll return the TV. Very disappointed at amazon.
