The Samsung TU8500 brings good video performance and a great, easy-to-use smart platform that will make it a winner for casual viewers
Solid picture performance for the price ; Lighting fast Game mode ; Comprehensive smart TV platform
Not the brightest HDR performer ; No Freeview Play ; No Dolby Vision
The Samsung TU8500 gives you a cheap 4K TV that doesn't feel bargain-bin. It may lack the picture prowess of more expensive QLED Samsung TVs, but it retains much of the usability, crucially.
Expert review by : What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)
What Hi-Fi? Awards 2020 winner. A great option for those on a tight budget
Decently deep, detailed blacks ; Solid and crisp 4K ; Exhaustive app selection
Slightly red colour balance
If £500 is the limit of your budget, the UE50TU8500 is the TV to get
Expert review by : Steve May (pocket-lint.com)
If you're looking for a well specified 4K smart TV that doesn't come with a premium price tag, the TU8500 is well worth a shout. Here's why.
Tizen smart TV platform ; Low latency Game mode ; Value for money ; Dolby Atmos audio pass-through
Pictures not particularly cinematic ; No Dolby Vision support ; No Freeview Play ; Average onboard audio
It may not be aimed at AV enthusiasts, but enjoyable picture quality, solid Tizen smart platform and a stonking gaming performance make this affordable Samsung 4k set a value winner.

If you can't afford one of Samsung's flagship QLED TVs then a mid-range Crystal UHD model could be the perfect upgrade for your living room
Consumer review (richersounds.com)
Easy to set up, mine is linked to Sky, a sound bar, blu ray player, and large hard drive. The software in the set is designed to actually make sense. The main handset is amazingly responsive without any of the delays I've seen on other sets. Did I me...
