Great looking TV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Replaced a reliable but old 1080p LED TV with the Q80D. Love the look of this TV! The blacks are well defined, and the colors are vibrant and really pop. Just watched a new 4k disc of Superman and it's the best I've ever seen the movie look.
The OS is pretty nice, though I did have a bit of a tough time finding the app section. Pleasantly surprised at the number of different video formats it plays on its own from a hard drive. I have a large collection of digital movies and was able to plug a 5tb hard drive into the USB port and play directly from it. Some older .avi files would not play but the newer .mkv and .mp4 files played without a problem, even the newest HEVC files. It has a wider range of capabilities than the 4k player I bought which is nice! Streaming apps available work fine, it streams smoothly. My only quibble with the OS aside from a bit of trouble finding the apps section is that once it starts auto playing the live TV app at startup, it's very difficult to stop it from doing so. I eventually uninstalled Samsung Live TV entirely to get it to stop auto playing at startup or when going into the list of attached devices, after more than a half hour of searching for other ways. Had it been easy to turn off all auto play features throughout the TV I might have given a five star review. Also did not like having to turn off the AI features manually. Don't need any of that, it just makes the TV look worse, faker. But all in all, very pleased with the purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had another brand tv ive had for quite some time, o lower end model but it worked, finally decided to upgrade to a better tv and i wonder why i haven't done this sooner, what an unbelievable picture quality! Makes everything better, even the speakers sound more alive, amazing tv
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product is very simple to operate has so much flexibility. The sound and picture quality are great. The only challenge I have is that the remote control controlling other samsung tvs in the house. I currently have 4 samsung tvs and turning on or off sometimes affect the other tvs not in use or being used in another room in the house. I wish each remote is customized to each product. All in all I love my samsung products from tv,to soundbar,hoover , home theater and refrigerator. I am samsungnified.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This TV rocks! I upgraded to the Q80D from an older model and wow, what a difference! The picture quality is incredible. Quantum HDR+ really makes everything look so lifelike, with vibrant colors and amazing detail. Even in dark scenes, you can see everything clearly. I'm a big gamer, and the 120Hz refresh rate makes a huge difference. No more motion blur, even in fast-paced games. And the sound is awesome too! Dolby Atmos creates this immersive experience that makes you feel like you're right in the middle of the action. A couple of things to keep in mind: * Viewing angles: It looks best when you're sitting right in front of it. If you're off to the side, the picture isn't quite as good. * Glare: I have it in a pretty bright room, and sometimes there's a bit of glare on the screen. Overall: Despite those minor things, I absolutely love this TV! It's a huge upgrade from my old one, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing 4K experience.
