At the head of its class
Simply put: the D8000 is the ultimate HDTV experience. If you're looking to be blown away by cutting-edge features, brilliant imagery, and futuristic aesthetics, the D8000 is exactly what you've been looking for. Seeing stars? You're most likely blinded by the D8000's razor-thin bezel. The bezel is so thin, it looks like it's floating on thin air. The 0.2" brushed metal bezel boasts a modern metallic finish sure to compliment any home decor. To make it even easier on the eyes, the D8000 features an edge-lit LED backlight with innovative Micro Dimming Plus technology. The Micro Dimming Plus technology allows for more precise control of the backlight, making your home entertainment experience even smoother and sharper.
3D and beyond
What makes the Samsung UN55D8000 such a special TV? It could be the 3D capable LED screen, letting you take your movie and television viewing to a whole new level with Samsung's brand-new Bluetooth 3D glasses (included with purchase). Instead of relying on IR, the included Bluetooth 3D glasses promise to improve line-of-sight, range, and interference issues to give you a smooth, in-depth picture. It could also be the incredibly vivid imagery, combining the deep black levels and bright white levels you can get with Micro Dimming Plus technology, the vivid colors that a Wide Color Enhancer Plus brings, and the smooth motion processing from 240Hz Auto Motion Plus for a picture that is definitely greater than the sum of its parts. Of course, it could also be the Eco Sensor that makes the UN55D8000 up to 50% more efficient than ENERGY STAR savings, and matches the light levels of your room for a better defined image. It could be any of those things, but it's not. It's all of those things that you can find in one HDTV, bringing you the best in content, picture, and energy savings in one smooth, slim package.
