Samsung KS9000-Series 75"-Class SUHD Smart LED TV

The Samsung UE55KS9000 is a 55-inch SUHD TV with a stunning slimline design and a curved screen. Picture quality is excellent, with 4K HDR delivering ultra-sharp and detailed images, with accurate colours and plenty of shadow detail, although it's missing out on 3D support.

Samsung UE55KS9000: With its superb picture quality and excellent HDR, Samsung's KS9000 is a force to be reckoned with

It looks gorgeous, sounds great, and its performance with UHD HDR content is so good that once you’ve witnessed it, it’s hard to go back to anything else. No good if you’re a 3D fan, though.

• +

  Incredibly bright, dynamic and colourful HDR pictures, Standard dynamic range pictures look brilliant too, Much-improved smart interface

• -

  Some backlight banding with HDR, No 3D support, Curved screen not ideal from wide viewing angles

The UN55KS9000 continues Samsung’s dedicated pursuit of the ultimate HDR experience with its high brightness and powerful color technologies. There are one or two stumbles along the way, but overall no other TV range around today offers the same level of HDR excitement for so little cash.

• +

  Strong design, Genuine HDR experience, Good value, Outstanding SDR performance

• -

  HDR backlight issues, Color striping with HDR, No 3D support

Within its price class, the Samsung does extremely well, arguably delivering a more detailed and subtler picture than similar models from Vizio, and holding up well compared to Sony's XBR55X930D . It’s also one of the better-looking TVs out there, but its remote is too minimalist to be useful.

• +

  Excellent color and brightness, Svelte, fashionable design, Smart TV features with smart home potential

• -

  Frustratingly minimalist remote, Awkward external connector box

While OLED has its benefits, LCD certainly won’t be consigned to the waste bin any time soon – not when the televisions are still this good and, dare we say it, affordable.

• +

  Sharp picture, Realistic colours, Improved OS, Stylish

• -

  Lacks All4 and Demand5, Needs a soundbar

The Samsung SUHD 55-inch TV has a lot going for it, and is amongst the best televisions in the market today. If you have the money, and like vibrant and oversaturated colours, you'll like this TV. If not, the Sony KD-55X9300D produces more true-to-life colours.

• +

  Vibrant colours, Loud, Very good looking, Fast

• -

  Picture lacks sharpness, Tizen needs more app support

A splendid TV: 4K, HDR and superior smarts in a beautiful svelte package.

• +

  Excellent picture, whether in 4K, HD or SD, Smart functionality means 4K and HDR programming is easily available, Stunning looks will grace any living room

• -

  LCD tech means occasional slight light-bleed issues, No 3D functionality

UHD Premium, Edge-lit, 10 bit and HDR, too

• +

  Superb picture, Thumbs up for HDR, Refined Smart Hub

• -

  Fixing stand to rear panel, One Connect cable length, Having to send it back

Dazzling, dynamic 55in Ultra HD TV set takes HDR to the edge...

This remote is very hard to use and has a big leaning curve, At least the TV works with a Logitech Smart Hub.The picture is sharp and clear. The Tv does not nice with other brand equipment (home theater, ect.)
