Samsung?s latest smart TV offering is the SUHD TV series. For those who are wondering, SUHD stands for Super Ultra High Definition and it does truly lives up to its name. This review is for the 55-inch version.
Design
The SUHDTV is a very sleek TV. It has a very thin frame and the screen bezels are almost non-existent. The Samsung logo emits white LED light when the TV is turned on.
Display
Samsung is no stranger in providing the best displays for mobile phones and TV. The SUHD TV is capable of displaying 8 million pixels, which is up to four-times the resolution a standard Full HD TV.
Samsung infused the SUHDTV with increased level of brightness, but with deeper contrast allowing users to perceive even the smallest of details not seen on conventional TV. Users are treated to an experience like no other with the life-like colors being displayed, thanks to the eco-friendly Quantum Dot Technology. This allows the SUHD TV to show up to 64x the color expression of conventional TV, offering a wider color gamut.
Screen glares or reflections are a nuisance and may hinder enjoyable experience, especially when watching a movie in daytime. The SUHD TV?s display has been created with low reflectivity in mind. Dubbed as ?Moth Eye? technology, the SUHD absorbs incoming light but limits reflections, allowing users to enjoy even in a room with a light source.
On top of that, Samsung was able to integrate a re-mastering engine, which automatically analyzes and up-scales non-SUHD content, so it displays as close to SUHD quality as possible.
