Hi Arjana,
Thank you for purchasing the Samsung AU8000 and for sharing your review. The feedback you have provided regarding the Wi-Fi connection issues you are experiencing are important to us and will be shared with our internal teams. We suggest you try the following to troubleshoot and resolve your issue:
1. Use 5Ghz Wi-Fi if possible
2. Try wired LAN if available
3. Try repositioning the router so there are no obstacles between your TV and the router
Please also be sure you are running the latest firmware (v.1903.0). You can check to see what software version your TV is using and if there is an available update through the settings on your TV. Go to: Settings > Support > Software Update.
You may want to enable automatic updates for conveniences.
Go to Settings > Support > Software Update, then select Auto Update.
Additionally, to optimize the smart TV performance, please try Device Care option under the Support Menu. Go to Settings > Support> Device Care > Start Device Care.
This improves your apps performance as it frees up unused cached memory and closes background apps.
I hope these tips help resolve your concerns. Should you need further assistance, please contact our Customer Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for TVs), available 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week.

This product is an all around great item.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a self admitted movie buff. The experience I have with every single movie I watch is brilliant. I find myself so enveloped in my experience I lose myself and any knowledge of time passing and all happenings around me. I am beyond satisfied with this product. I recommend it 10 times over to anyone.

Everything is Excellent

from Tulsa, OK
easy set up, easy downloads of all apps. picture, clarity and color are all top of the line. i purchased a samsung soundbar to accompany the tv and the sound will blow you away like you are in a dolby surround sound theatre. this is my 4th tv in the house and this one by far has the best sound and quality. would recommend getting the accompanying samsung sound bar that comes with a subwofer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice TV but...
on June 30, 2021
Posted by: TomR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the main TV for the house. I decided to purchase after reading several revues. For the most part it is a good TV. There are a few shortcomings.
First. The manual is a joke. You'll learn little from the manual except how to install it. Assembly is pretty easy. The setup is done by a menu and isn't too hard.
Second. The remote is really hard to use. It lacks even the basic buttons, like numbers. Normally I control the TV with the satellite remote.
Third. The sound level seems to change often. I find myself adjusting the volume up and down regularly. Not just from channel to channel, but during a show.
The worst things said, the overall quality of the TV is great. The packaging is more than adequate. There is Samsung TV Plus that allows streaming and OTA viewing. This is a nice feature.

Hi TomR!
Thank you for purchasing the 65" AU8000 Crystal UHD TV from Samsung. I am glad to hear you are enjoying the quality of your new TV and taking advantage of Samsung TV Plus providing free content via streaming. Your feedback regarding your experience is important to us and your feedback will be shared with the product team.
Many of the buttons on your remote have multiple functions. For example, the Volume button is moved UP/DOWN to adjust volume, and to MUTE the sound, you need to PRESS it in. If that same button is pressed for > than 1 second, the Accessibility Shortcuts appears.
To learn more about the remote and its additional functions, check out pages 24 - 26 in the user manual found online at the following link:
https://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/202106/20210624133023578/OSNATSCA-6.0.0_EM_OSCAR_USA_ENG_210608.0.pdf
Regarding the volume fluctuations, Auto Volume is a feature on Samsung Smart TVs that helps to avoid volume fluctuation when changing between channels or sources on the TV. Go to: Settings > Sound > Expert Settings > Auto Volume = On
You may also want to perform a Sound Test under Support > Self Diagnosis > Start Sound Test.
Should you ever have questions or need help, please call us at:
1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for TVs), available 8AM -12AM EST, 7 days a week. Or text HELP to 62913.

The most impressive television I've ever seen
on April 24, 2021
Posted by: FozziesMom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I splurged on this television. First it is so weight wise light..blows my mind from the old days and consol televisions. The screen is the most vibrant I have ever seen. I am just in love with this television. Completely worth the purchase. I will warn it does tend to get slightly warmer..well hot than my last television.. I'm not sure if that is common .. I'm thinking of getting a cooling mat like for my laptop

on May 31, 2022
Posted by: Kriscamp
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Picture is amazing for a mid range TV. l would recommend this TV to any one whose in the market for one. Since the TV is so thin. The audio isn't that great. I recommend getting a sound bar if you buy this TV.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Use for streaming and some gaming. The picture sometimes looks off and not as sharp as it should. I feel it should be better than what it is but overall descent

Hi Tony!
Thank you for purchasing the AU8000 TV and sharing your thoughts regarding the image quality. The TV will upscale as best as possible any content sent to it. The closer your content is to 4K, the better the image will look on the screen.
Here are some tips to help improve the picture clarity:
1) HDMI cables are recommended for optimal HD viewing.
2) If you have an analog cable box or satellite box, upgrade to a digital cable box or satellite box.
3) Change the output resolution of your devices, such as digital broadcast receiver, IPTV, and set-top box to UHD or HD.
4) You can further adjust your sharpness, brightness, contrast, color, and more by going to Settings > Picture > Expert Settings
5) Choose a Picture Mode by going to Settings > Picture > Picture Mode and choose from Dynamic, Standard, Natural, Movie, or Filmmaker Mode.
