The Samsung AU8000 is an LCD TV with a lower midrange price and was released in 2021. It has a 65-inch screen size and offers fair overall picture quality. When it comes to specific content, it performs fairly for sports and news, talk, and reality TV while gaming, dark room performance, and movie series experience are considered poor. In bright rooms, this TV offers a fair experience, which could make it suitable for well-lit environments. However, its reflective screen might counteract this benefit in very bright or sunlit rooms. The TV provides a good upscaling of lower resolution content and has a good response time but has only average input lag, which isn't ideal for competitive gaming. It comes with a VA LED sub-type screen, supports HDR10 and HLG but does not support Dolby Vision or HDR10+. Color reproduction is fair out of the box, yet the contrast is high which benefits dark scenes. Additionally, the AU8000 has fair sound quality with no standout speaker features and offers decent accessibility options. It includes three HDMI ports, making it capable of connecting multiple devices simultaneously. Give Feedback
