Exterior design of the Samsung UE55AU8072UXXH

Samsung UE55AU8072UXXH design

We are pleased that a slim design has been implemented for a TV like this

The first surprise is in the design, since it is not common to enjoy well-crafted appearances in this category, however, for the Samsung UE55AU8072 they have offered us an excellent job that stands out from the first moment we see this TV. We say this because we are going to find a totally AirSlim design .

In other words, it is a slim model that can fit perfectly in any location and offer a modern style. In addition, due to its size it is perfect for medium-sized rooms , likewise, its front provides us with thin bezels that will exploit the maximum elegance of this equipment from any angle.

This allows us to receive an ultra-thin screen that will be essential when viewing content, since the useful space will be much greater. The view from the sides is fabulous and that is because we have a frameless TV , as if that were not enough, the back gives us a fairly clean view that eliminates all the thickness.

Connectivity

We will not receive incredible connectivity, however, the essential connectors are equipped for a pleasant experience. For example, we have three HDMI 2.0 inputs that are essential for connecting devices such as laptops, consoles, and players. We also find two USB 2.0 ports that allow you to play content more easily. At the wireless level, it is not far behind and it gives us Wi-Fi , Bluetooth 5.2 and DLNA .

Image quality and general functions of the Samsung 55AU8072

The Samsung 55AU8072 does not have the best image quality and it is something you should know from now on, however, considering the rest of its features and the cost it has, it seems to us that it offers an acceptable experience. First, it has a 4K resolution that tries to provide us with better details , which look more real.

In this case, the main disadvantage is that it has an LED panel that gives us a regular backlight, which usually presents certain difficulties in very dark or bright environments, therefore, it is important to have a placement where the light does not affect too much . Despite this, a fairly acceptable quality is still maintained.

And in part this is due to the fact that we have a Crystal processor that works by means of crystalline inorganic nanoparticles that will be responsible for reproducing more than 1,000 million colors with greater purity, which will not degrade over time , for therefore, we will receive a much more vivid and intense content at all times.

Another parameter that is benefited by the integrated technologies is the contrast that through Contrast Enhancer we will be able to discover a new level of depth, so each scene will have greater clarity. For its part, Motion Xcelerator allows us to experience a more fluid image by adding more frames from the source source.

Sound

Possibly the main disadvantage of the Samsung UE55AU8072UXXH is that its audio quality is not that powerful, and we say this because only two integrated speakers with 20W total are offered, which for more demanding content will not be enough. Of course, technologies such as Dolby Digital Plus , Adaptive Sound and Q-Symphony are offered that try to provide a more immersive and clean experience, however, your speakers will continue to be a problem.

We have the Tizen system that offers us excellent functions

The Samsung UE55AU8072 offers its own operating system that we know with Tizen, which is based on Linux and this ensures good optimization and security. In addition, it is an intuitive platform that makes everything easier for us , likewise, we have an acceptable application catalog that adds great options.

For example, we have Netflix , Prime Video , HBO , YouTube , Disney +, and more. On the other hand, we also have compatibility with virtual assistants that are quite supportive, since they will allow us to control different functions of the television using only your voice. In this case we find Google Assistant , Alexa and Bixby .

This system will have its own functions that are sometimes very beneficial, although it all depends on the use that we are going to give the Samsung 55AU8072 . However, we highlight that Tap View , SmartThings and an image gallery are offered . Finally, mention that this model is compatible with HDR for a better experience.
