Focused on bringing you the most lifelike images, the Samsung UE50CU8500 is one of the sharpest LED TVs in its class.

Dynamic Crystal Colour
Whether you're bingeing on a boxset or feasting on a blockbuster, you’ll see everything in crystal clear and lifelike colour on this Samsung 50 inch TV. Dynamic Crystal Colour delivers rich and vibrant images in over one billion shades – 64 times more than conventional UHD TVs.

Object Tracking Sound LITE
Object Tracking Sound Lite chooses which of the TVs front speakers the sound comes through depending on where the action is happening on screen. So you can hear a car fly along your screen or the crowd cheering all around you.

AirSlim with Centre Stand
You don’t just want your TV to look good when it's on - you want it to blend into your room when it's off too. This TV has a slim design with a clean cable solution, so it will look stunning from any angle. It even has the flexibility to work with a wide range of furniture thanks to the centre stand’s small footprint.

Crystal Processor 4K
Think of the processor as the brain of the TV. It works in the background to improve the picture and sound of what you're watching. Simply relax and enjoy the content you love whilst the TV boosts the quality to 4K detail and adjusts the sound depending on what's playing. Streaming movies or watching live sport, you’ll really feel part of the action.

Gaming Hub
Samsung Gaming Hub brings together the biggest console and streaming games from Xbox and other industry-leading partners, all in on one place.* With no downloads, storage limits or console required,** just turn on your TV and play.

*Internet connection, additional gaming service subscription and compatible controller required. Gaming Hub not available in Republic of Ireland.
**Compatible controller required.

Smart TV powered by Tizen
With the best-selling Samsung Smart TV*, it’s never been easier to enjoy TV. Dive into a huge collection of 4K films, TV shows, and all your catch-up TV apps – including Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV, NOW TV and BT Sport apps** – all in one place. Not sure what to watch? Samsung’s easy-to-use and customisable Smart Hub platform gives you tailored recommendations.

*Samsung TV has been ranked No.1 selling TV Brand for 16 consecutive years by Omdia.
** Subscriptions required. Some apps may not be available at launch. 3rd party content providers may remove apps from the Smart TV platform or stop updating them at any time.

Multi View
Never miss another moment. With Multi View, you can play your mobile content alongside the TV, all at once, on the same screen. Simply pair your smartphone to your TV with screen mirroring to split the big TV screen *. Handy if you want to keep an eye on the football score whilst watching a movie.

*Mobile mirroring requires internet connection and compatible mobile device.

Adaptive Sound
Whether you're watching dialogue, sports, the news or the latest blockbuster - your audio needs are different. Adaptive Sound recognises the content on screen and adjusts the sound to what you're watching. Whether the director’s intent is to make you feel like part of the crowd or centre stage, the TV will be sure to fulfil.

HDR powered by HDR10+
HDR - or High Dynamic Range – opens up previously hidden depth and detail in the lightest and darkest scenes. HDR is the range from the lightest to the darkest areas of the picture, and the wider the range the more lifelike the image. HDR10+ takes this to the next level by adjusting the HDR range scene-by-scene for a more lifelike viewing experience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Replacement tv This was a replacement for a very poor Panasonic tv. Thanks to Tom and Paddy for sorting us out when everyone else was giving us the runaround. Our new Samsung tv is reliable and has an excellent picture.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Samsung LED TV CU8500 We had a Samsung LED TV which broke and John Lewis would not honour the warranty. We were recommended Richer Sounds and chose the CU8500. The TV is great apart from one thing. There are 3 HDMI ports. 2 of them are plugged from a side angle. The 3rd is plugged in from a rear angle, i.e. perpendicular to the TV, so that the HDMI sticks out the back, increasing the depth of the TV overall. This meant we had to reconfigure the wall mounting, requiring hours of messing around to get more clearance behind. The previous Samsung TV had all 3 HDMIs side mounting, so why the stupid and unnecessary change in design? As for Richer Sounds, no problems whatsoever. Very helpful, good price. Would happily use them again.
