This TV is beautiful, Slim and gives a gorgeous picture. Even better it is super affordable for what you get.
You can basically get a 75" 4K UHD TV for just under $2k AUD. pretty hard to beat that really.
Also works beautifully with the Samsung Q600A soundbar. And if you watch movies or like to game then I highly recommend getting a Samsung Q series sound bar as they sync seamlessly and are designed to work together. And the sound quality combined is beautiful!
If I had a criticism, and the only reason why I gave 4 not 5 stars... is the qual...
Read moreity 'blacks'. I understand the different projection methods give different quality black projections, just this was something that was never explained to me when I bought it (notice they only ever show beautiful high colour pictures in the shop?). To be honest it probably wouldn't have swayed my decision as the price point for what you get is excellent. But if you are unaware and you watch a show with alot of dark spaces (think night-time, shadows, out of space etc.), then you will be looking at it thinking.. is this really 4K? It can be pretty poor and disappointing. But like my title states. For 95% of viewing you can't go wrong. and for the price I am happy to overlook average dark scenes. All in all it is a great TV for the price. Highly recommend.Purchased in March 2022 at Harvey Norman for $1,995.

English isn’t my first language so please no hate. The TV is great, i love the video and the quality that TV does provide. The sound may need improvement although. I have a speaker plug in for the TV so sound isn’t an issue, yet it sometimes echoes meaning that it is a bit annoying sometimes when it gets accidentally turned up. The video quality is very good and i have not seen a better TV screen anywhere else that is affordable. Very good TV do like it a lot. Thank you Samsung!

We purchased two 65inch Samsung QLED TV's for $1800 each from Harvey Norman. The TV is a smart TV with all the latest technology. The installation of the TV was simply and easy with purchase of a wall mount kit (not included with the TV) making the job a breeze. We connected the TV to a hardwired NBN connection and basically just had to turn the TV on, register the product and the smart TV did the rest. Picture quality is superb, with easy navigation of the remote to all the various apps and channels. If I was to have the slightest negative it would be that the sound could be better... It's good, but I did expect that with a TV of this quality that the sound could be improved particularly when watching movies.

Great TV for picture quality. My only negative on this tv is that the sound is not great. I never felt the need before to look at additional sounds options but with this tv I have been looking at getting a sound bar. If I can describe the sound, it’s like a hollow tube sound. All other areas are good, easy to setup. All HDMI ports are on the back. Very simple tv remote consisting of around 10 buttons, which actually needs a bit of getting use to. Luckily I had my previous Samsung remote which also works!

Variety of apps that could be used which are pre installed. Easy operation of the remote except on its voice sensor. It doesn't sense much. Good and smooth wireless/ bluetooth connectivity. It comes with all needed ports. Worth the bucks!

I love the size and clarity. It has good sound and pictures with easy remote control for modern use. the connectivity with wifi is responsive. The remote control can be a bigger and easy to follow functions. I dont recommend this hi tech remote control for seniors as it can be complicated to use. But apart from this for my younger generations, its breeze for them. Indeed a smart TV and price point.

Questions & Answers
Samsung AU8000 UA65AU8000WXXY (65") Can I record with a 32 USB stick for recording my tv shows. Thank you.
The ability to record is region specific. It is called ‘Extended PVR’. The 55” AU8000 purchased in Australia does not have this function, even though it is in the user manual. Check the specs list in ...
Read moreyour country. Also, I think you need a usb hard drive, not a usb stick.
Is this a "Google TV"
I'm not sure, I don't have wifi or internet connected to the tv. Maybe ask samsung they could answer your question.
Awesome Carolyn. Do you know why ppl who dont know the answer to question feel compelled to say so?
Youre not the only one.
Hi Neil. It is a smart tv and you need a Samsung account to link it. I created one when I bought it. Not sure of the answer about Google TV as I’m an Apple user and it still links to screen mirror.
I hope this is helpful
Hello, What sort of PVR does the AU8000 have?
Can you record a channel, and watch something else?
Cheers
