If you’re searching for a 3D-compatible, high quality LED TV, then you would do well to seriously consider buying the Samsung UN55D8000 (just see all of the positive reviews here).

Considering the features present in the Samsung UN55D8000, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better deal on any television of a comparable level. This is a 55-inch TV which is ideal for both the 3D enthusiast and the person seeking a product which can serve as link in a broader home entertainment vision.

By linking up with the 3D glasses designed for this television, the Samsung UN55D8000 is capable of delivering a 3D viewing experience which rivals the kind provided in real movie theaters. This technology is not limited to just media designated as 3D, though. In fact, the interaction between the glasses and the television can enable even ordinary programming to take on a 3D effect. So, there’s the potential here for the viewer to re-enter familiar worlds and transform them through the new capabilities present in the Samsung UN55D8000.

As for the design of the Samsung UN55D8000, there isn’t very much more to be said than it’s very thin, and very attractive. Any room should consider itself fortunate to be graced by this product. Even when turned off, this television could pass for a veritable work of modern art.

One noteworthy feature of the Samsung UN55D8000 is that it comes with built-in internet. There are many possibilities here: For one thing, this enables the viewer to stream any media of his choice directly to the television. Or, imagine conducting a Skype session on a screen of this size and quality. It’s likely that you’ve experienced these things through the medium of a computer screen, but the experience is totally transformed when it passes through the medium of the Samsung UN55D8000 instead (see full list of features here).

Speaking of media, this television also boasts a high degree of compatibility with other media devices. By using the USB ports of the Samsung UN55D8000, you can easily link up external drives, digital cameras, and so on to the television, allowing an instant interface between these different technologies. Also, the Samsung UN55D8000 has a feature known as AllShare DLNA Networking, which allows even further connectivity with other devices in your home entertainment network which carry DLNA certification.

As far its technical specifications go, the Samsung UN55D8000 once again presents itself as a great value. In its energy consumption, this television far surpasses the standards established by ENERGY STAR. However, this is achieved without any consequence whatsoever on the quality of the viewing experience delivered. The saved energy is largely a result of this television’s good use of LED backlighting. So, the Samsung UN55D8000 delivers a maximum of quality while using only a minimum of energy.

Mostly, this television’s other technical features are geared toward creating the best possible image within its 3D matrix. This is done in part by conducting in intensive pixel-by-pixel analysis of every image in order to produce the richest possible outcome. The television itself comes with 1080p resolution in full high definition, so it’s able to use a quite powerful engine to carry out this image calibration. The Samsung UN55D8000 also includes a technology which analyzes the motions of the images, producing a flow which is as smooth and lifelike as possible.
