More Information

The Samsung ES8000 55-inch Smart TV has the beauty and brains to revolutionize how you watch TV:

  • Full HD 1080p resolution

  • 240Hz refresh rate

  • 960 Clear Motion Rate (CMR) motion enhancement technology

  • 30,000,000:1 Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio

  • Wide Colour Enhancer Plus

  • Active 3D technology

  • Optimized web browser

  • Built-in camera

  • HDMI, Component Video, USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, and DLNA connectivity



Watching your movies and sports just got a whole lot more enjoyable with the Samsung ES8000 55-inch LED Smart TV. From movies to fast-action sports to video games, you can see it all in stunning Full HD 1080p resolution. With 3D support, you can also watch your multimedia come to three-dimensional life at the touch of a button. Even sound gets a boost with Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby Pulse audio, which work together to make every word and whisper ring loud and clear.

A mega dynamic contrast ratio and Wide Colour Enhancer Plus ensure that blacks are at their absolute darkest and colours are at their absolute brightest for unparalleled picture quality. When the action starts to pick up, you'll love the 240Hz refresh rate and 960 CMR motion enhancement technology, which give you lag-free, ultra smooth onscreen movement. Micro Dimming Ultimate analyzes each frame of video in hundreds of areas to optimize the LED backlight and video signal for each frame in real time, so you get a brighter, more vibrant picture.

Samsung Smart Interaction makes the remote control obsolete with Voice Commands, Motion Control, and Face Recognition. Say "Hi TV" in up to 26 languages to see onscreen commands the TV is ready to perform. Smart Interaction technology can also control other devices like cable and satellite set-top boxes. Say "Web Browser" and use hand gestures to scroll and browse the Internet as you would on a computer. Make Skype calls even more fun with the built-in camera.

Multiple connectivity options, such as 3 HDMI and 3 USB inputs, make it easy to hook up all your high definition devices for the ultimate home theatre system. Even better, you can wirelessly connect your DLNA devices so you can stream your movies, music, photos, and more directly to the ES8000.

love it!

got it a month ago... works perfect with my Pioneer VSX reveiver and Harman-Kardon speakers. The FutureShop guy calibrated to the optimum of the room. All bells are on. Also got the Logitec K400 wireles keyboard (don't use the Samsung one, does the same things for 3 time more $). Also plugged BluRay 3D samsung. It had some hickups but now is Okay. I didn't try the camera except for the test but seems fine. Motion and voice commands are a bit weak points.

Worth it.

Have had tv for a couple months and not a single problem. Motion control takes some getting used to but kinda neat to fool around with. The reason its worth the money is by providing an amazing picture for digital tv, blu ray, and unbelievable 3D (blows away movie theatre quality). The yearly update feature is nice but apparently expensive and honestly I don't see a reason to upgrade it yet because its great the way it is. I would only say avoid this tv if you are not planning on having it hooked up to an Internet source because it has so many features that require being online (Skype, explorer, apps, ect..)

Awesome TV but stopped working after 20-30 min

The picture/look of the TV was amazing but the video inputs stopped working after 20-30 min and required the TV to be off for a couple of hours to work again. Future Shop customer service was really helpful and understanding and did what they could but they were out of stock for replacements because of boxing day sales so I ended up returning the TV and getting my money back just before the refund period expired. Hopefully another sale will happen on this model or the 2013 model and I will probably pick it up again because the picture was amazing and the Smart TV function were not perfect but seemed more developed compared to other TVs.

The Best in show

Had this samsung led for 4 months...very impress with it great colors. My brother bought the Sony one simpleer to the samung no contest the Sony lack the colors and motion smoothness when watching hockey or any sports, he wish he had bought the Samsung. The only thing wrong is the wireless internet a bit slow, but when wired wow a huge pc monitor
