Simply LED TV Wall mounts

There’s plenty of LED TV’s out there and I was fortunate enough to review the new Samsung 8000 55 inch 3D LED TV.

The first thing that you’ll notice about this TV LED is the sheer size. At 55 inches, it’s huge and definitely only suitable for a very large living room or office. That said, if you can fit a 55 inch tvs in your room and find tv wall mounts big enough to hold them, it will certainly make a huge impact!

The tv itself is supported on an attractive four-legged chrome stand and stands at 83cm high. The front colour is brushed titanium with a finish that will really bring a modern edge to your living room.

In terms of connectivity, the 3D LED TV features one component in, one a/v in, an optical audio out, a DVI audio in, four HDMI ports, two USB ports and two SCART ports. It also features Dolby Digital Plus sound and SRS TheaterSound for that true home cinema experience.

The next thing that hits you is the 3D. The Samsung offers an immersive viewing experience by moving away from the old two dimensional tv into the realms of 3D, providing fantastic picture quality via the 3D HyperReal engine at the full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080.

As far as performance goes, the Samsung was certainly one of the most convincing 3D tv’s I’ve seen so far, rivaling the Sony Bravia KDL-52HX903 or LG 55LX9900. While I did notice an occasional ghostly outline between the two layers of the 3D image, this was rare and overall the 3D looked great.

The tv also has a built in 3D converter, allowing you to convert your 2D movies into 3D. By in large it didn’t really affect most of the movies I tried on it, but it was much more noticeable when playing racing games on my Xbox 360.

The tv had to perform with 2D viewing too and it did a great job, with a fantastic image quality, rich colors, sharp details and deep black levels. I did find people to be a little off colour however, but this was quickly fixed with a colour correction through the on-screen menu.

The Samsung also comes packed with features including the Internet@TV platform, providing you with music, video and social networking including access to LoveFilm, iPlayer, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter and other simple wireless content right through your tv. While I would have preferred to have a keyboard, it was great to be able to access all those sites from the comfort of my sofa with no need to boot up a pc.

Another feature is the built in freeview HD tuner, allowing you to enjoy hours of free HD tv. You can even plug your own USB or hard disk into it and use it as a personal video recorder, which was a feature I know I would get a lot of use out of.

The tv comes in just under £2700 or $3150 – a hefty price but for the size and feature set, its extremely competitive in today’s market. So get out there and give it a try.
