See crystal clear, lifelike colour come to life with Samsung’s TU8500 TV. It adapts to optimise both sound and picture, with Dual LED technology for bold contrast. Control all compatible devices with One Remote Control, and you can access a world of online entertainment via Samsung's Smart platform, and interact by voice with Bixby, Alexa and Google Assistant built in. With Boundless design, it’s crafted to look just as good from any angle.

HDR powered by HDR10+
HDR deepens your view and shows shades previously unseen in home entertainment. Expanding light, dark and every colour in between to extraordinary new levels, this model's picture gets closer to real life. With HDR10+, colour, contrast and detail are precisely optimised.

4K Ultra High Definition
This 43” screen has four times the number of pixels than 1080p Full HD TVs, delivering stunning realism, natural motion and incredible detail.

Features:

Dynamic Crystal Colour: with over a billion hues the picture is stunningly accurate to the colours of real life, with no degradation over time.

Dual LED: uncovers bold contrast and accurate colour, for bright whites, deep blacks and every colour in fine detail.

Adaptive Sound: sound adapts to the type of content you’re watching, for perfectly-suited audio.

Crystal Processor 4K: this upscaling TV adapts to give you an optimised 4K picture and targeted sound.

One Remote Control: control all of your compatible devices and content with one universal remote control.

Game Enhancer: unlock the potential of gaming TV technology.

Ambient Mode: turns the TV screen into a decorative feature, displaying colourful patterns or your own photos.*

Samsung Smart TV and Apps
Powered by Tizen, Samsung’s smart platform is superbly intuitive. It gives you access to a huge collection of 4K content, and all your catch-up TV apps including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV, NOW TV and BT Sport, all in one place at the touch of a button.** Quickly set up your TV using your smart phone (SmartThings mobile app required), and you can watch TV whilst commenting on social media or browsing the internet via Wi-Fi. Samsung's Universal Guide lets you discover great content with tailored recommendations just for you.

Multiple Voice Assistants
For the first time, Bixby, Alexa and Google Assistant are all built into your Samsung Smart TV. Discover an optimal entertainment experience and advanced voice control in your connected smart home. Changing the volume, source, channel and more is as easy as asking.

It also works with Smart Things devices (compatible phone and app required. Exact functionality may change at any time and be withdrawn from the product without notice).

Samsung TVPlus
Experience easy access to the latest movies via your TV guide in addition to all your traditional TV channels. Whether you’re browsing for the latest Hollywood blockbuster or trying to find Ultra HD content, expand your viewing options through a wealth of additional Smart channels with Samsung TV Plus. Watch subscription free content with on-air and catch-up services including BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4 and My5. Charges apply for premium on-demand content.

Boundless Design
Boundless design looks stunning from any angle, with a clean back and a practically 'bezel-less' edge that maximises the viewing area.

Perfect partners
With TVs getting slimmer and built-in speakers getting smaller, choosing the right sound system is more important than ever. Soundbars enhance your TV’s sound quality and add that extra audio punch to all your movies, games and TV programmes. More affordable and easier to set up than a full size speaker system, they don’t compromise on quality either.
Take a look at our full range of soundbars.

Don't forget...
If you want to connect your TV to a blu-ray player, games console, soundbar or soundbase then you'll need a HDMI cable.
