A new era of TV experience has arrived with the introduction of Full HD resolution Samsung LED* TV Series 8. From its unique, One design and Ultra Slim exterior to the most advanced technology available today, the Series 8 has raised the bar for home entertainment. Innovative features such as Ultra Clear Panel, Micro Dimming, Clear Motion Rate 800, Digital Noise Filter, BD Wise and Wide Colour Enhancer Plus allow the Series 8 to deliver the most realistic Full HD images—all while being extremely energy efficient. Samsung has even improved its 3D* capabilities with its 3D Sound, 3D HyperReal Engine and enhanced 3D glasses for a more immersive 3D experience. Now you can also enjoy all of your 2D content in jaw-dropping 3D with the built-in 3D Converter. The Series 8 boasts some of Samsung’s newest suite of web connectivity and browsing features like Smart Hub**, Your Video**, Search All, Skype*** and Web Browser for an improved and user-friendly experience. And as always, the Samsung LED TV Series 8 comes with the full line of robust features that will round out your home entertainment experience, such as ConnectShare™ Movie, four HDMI inputs, Anynet+, and SRS Theatre Sound, so your TV can now be the centre of your entertainment world. You can even create a wireless home network with the Samsung AllShare. ™ feature.

Benefit from a seamless viewing surface 
From the moment you set your eyes on the Samsung Smart TV, you’ll be amazed by Samsung’s new One Design. The One Design was developed to maximise the viewing experience as well as enhance any home interior. Unlike conventional TVs, where the panel is recessed slightly within a thick plastic frame, the Samsung Smart TV’s One Design elegantly combines the bezel with the panel to create a seamless viewing experience that breaks the barrier between reality and what’s on TV.

See sharper images in 3D
Take your 3D viewing experience to the next level with the built-in 3D Auto Contrast feature on your Samsung Smart TV. 3D Auto Contrast enhances 3D picture quality through its automatic 3D depth rendering technology. The result is sharper 3D contrast for an amazingly crisp 3D image.

Less Layered images for clearer 3D pictures 
Layered images occur when the left and right images of a 3D picture blend together making it difficult to interpret. For a smoother and more immersive 3D experience, the Samsung Smart TV’s superior 3D technology uses special algorithms to minimise the amount of layered images. Combined with a faster response time, the result is a clear and crisp 3D image that makes your 3D home entertainment experience a more enjoyable one.

Now everything‘s within reach 
Enjoy the ease of searching for information or content through the convenient Search All feature on Smart Hub. With a couple clicks of your remote, you can quickly search for content related to the program you’re watching or even access information and other features like VOD, Apps, Social Networking Services, and more! 

Browse the Web with your TV.
Benefit from the convenience of surfing the Internet on a PC, but through your Samsung Smart TV. The Web Browser feature has been optimised for your TV so that you can enjoy a true Internet-surfing experience but on the big screen. So now you can watch TV or surf the web without ever having to turn on your PC.

Stay connected with friends and family with Samsung’s Social TV feature. No longer watching TV is a solitary event. With Social TV you can share your viewing experiences with friends and family through blogging and chatting services, like Facebook, Twitter, and Google Talk, all while watching live TV!

With WiFi Built-in, you can further streamline your TV’s connectivity capabilities without adding more external devices, like LAN lines or USB dongles, therefore maintaining your TV’s attractive design. To further boost the TV’s connectivity reach, the convenient “One Foot Connection” feature can wirelessly detect compatible devices that are placed within one foot of the TV and its wireless router.

BD Wise facilitates communication between connected AV devices, enabling them to share media information. This allows them to then create an optimised viewing environment for all multimedia formats.

Welcome to the next dimension in sound. 
Bring home a true 3D cinematic experience with Samsung’s 3D Sound technology. 3D Sound delivers an immerse sound depth and dimension through its Depth Rendering Technology and Audio Depth Control Algorithm. With 3D Sound, you can finally complement your 3D viewing experience with the next revolution in sound.

Samsung’s Micro Dimming technology achieves new heights through its renewed chipset and enhanced algorithm. With Micro Dimming your TV will produce deeper blacks and purer whites for the ultimate in picture clarity and contrast.

The Ultra Clear Panel on Samsung TV efficiently absorbs external light and effectively eliminates reflection, providing you with real, natural colour and deep, dynamic detail that delivers a clearer, more comfortable viewing experience.

The Wide Colour Enhancer Plus is just that—a superior colour enhancer. By using an advanced picture quality improvement algorithm, the Wide Colour Enhancer Plus can drastically improve the quality of any image and even uncover hidden colours and details.

With four HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface™ ) inputs, the Samsung LED TV will transform your living room into a multimedia entertainment centre. HDMI provides high-speed transmission of high definition digital data from multiple devices straight into your TV. That means you can enjoy a wide variety of content on the big screen.

The Samsung LED TV is equipped with “invisible” speakers so you can enjoy the benefits of true surround sound without any distractions or additional equipment. Let Samsung’s LED TV deliver a full entertainment experience so that you can finally hear what’s on your screen.

Just when you thought TV couldn’t get any slimmer…
The Samsung Ultra Slim LED TV changes the playing field, by taking advantage of the latest innovations in TV technology. Incredibly, some of the new ultra slim models are 50% thinner than last years Samsung models, creating an unbelievably slim profile you need to see to believe.

Imagine being able to watch your favourite 2D movies and TV shows in 3D. Now you can with Samsung’s innovative 3D Converter. Built into your Samsung Smart TV, the 3D Converter enhances your 3D viewing experience through a detailed analysis of the image to create an immersive and totally natural-looking image.

Customise your movie-going experience 
Let Samsung help you take the guesswork out of choosing what movie to watch with it’s Your Video feature. Just like many popular online retail stores and video service sites, Your Video serves up recommended movies based on the movies you’ve selected in the past. That means you’ll always have a list of movies that you’ll most likely want to watch every time you search for a movie. After finding the movie you want to watch, you can easily access it through Samsung’s convenient Apps.

Enhance your overall Smart TV experience with AllShare
Samsung’s AllShare ™ feature is a key element in the Smart TV equation. Just like the name sounds the AllShare ™ feature not only allows your TV to wirelessly connect with your compatible mobile devices, it also helps to enhance your overall Smart TV experience. That means you can share movies, photos and music all through a single device—your TV. And because the Smart TV is DLNA enabled, your digital content can be seamlessly shared between compatible devices for a more robust experience. Samsung has even optimised the network configuration to let you easily enjoy content ranging from movies to photos to music without having to switch devices. You’ll be able to send and receive SMS and even see who’s calling.

With the ConnectShare™ Movie capability, transform your TV into a home entertainment theatre. Simply plug in your USB memory drive or HDD into the TV and instantaneously enjoy a range of movies, photos and music on your TV. So instead of watching movies on your PC, you can download them onto a USB and watch them in the comfort of your living room on your TV.

Simplify your home entertainment experience

Experience the natural beauty of reality with Samsung’s Full HD LED TV’s. With twice the resolution of standard HD TV’s, the LED TV delivers images that defy your mind and bring pleasure to your home entertainment experience. The rich, realistic texture of Full HD images invites you to enjoy a viewing experience that redefines reality.

Experience the true meaning of motion clarity with Samsung’s Clear Motion Rate. It is a new motion clarity standard based on the actual measurement of resolution in a moving scene. Clear Motion Rate determines the clarity of motion using 3 different factors: Panel, Video processing, and Backlight technology. With this new standard in motion measurement and control, you will have better motion clarity and clearly see the whole new dimension in picture quality.

The driving force behind the amazing colour and realistic images of Samsung’s new LED TV’s is the innovative 3D HyperReal Engine. By optimising performance and image enhancement, the Samsung 3D HyperReal Engine provides the most vibrant and crystal-clear Full HD images.

Enjoy all the advantages of a high definition LED TV with Samsung’s Digital Noise Filter. The filter helps to eliminate some of the digital artifacts and other digital “noise” that appear on your screen. That means you can now watch crystal-clear analog programming as if it was being broadcasted digitally.

Save energy and your eyesight 
The Eco Sensor measures the intensity of the light in the room and then automatically calibrates the brightness of the image on the TV. Under bright situations, the sensor will increase the brightness of an image while the sensor will reduce the brightness under darker situations. That means the Eco Sensor controls the amount of light used to create its images.
