Eyes on With Samsung's Stunning D8000 TV

by Terrence O'Brien on January 6, 2011 at 12:45 PM

The Samsung D8000 is the company's new top-of-the-line TV, and it's a stunner. It's a miraculously thin, Internet-connected, 3-D, LED-backlit piece of beauty. It even comes with a touchscreen remote that lets you watch video and check your social networking accounts. But the most impressive things about the D8000 are the incredible viewing angles (the picture being almost perfect even from the sides), and the 0.2-inch bezel, which practically disappears when the TV is turned on. Samsung hasn't announced a release date or a price, but you can be sure it won't be cheap. Check out the video below.

@masonshome That TV definitely has silver trim. It only looks gold because of the yellow lights hitting it.

I agree, I think they should have stuck with basic black for the trim. Anyway, I just went what I consider to be high tech and bought a 46" flat screen HDTV last year so I won't be buying another any time soon. Seems just when you think you've gotten the best there is, something better comes along. Technology is moving way too fast!

I agree Tech is moving to fast for anyone to really keep up,, Plus the cost factor is getting rediculous.
For whats on TV I prefer a 42" plasma I just bought, and will probably keep for at least 10 Yrs

If I had designed the frame I would have used clear poly carbonate that would have reflected the same colors on the screen therefore always changing and still protective of the edges. It's the same plastic as bullet proof windows are made of. Or, just us acrylic plastic but I think that might be too cheap and break.
"Anywho", it's a nice TV screen and blends into the space it occupies.
I am looking forward to the new "flexible" screens that will be here soon that you can roll out and put anywhere. And when they perfect them even better you will be wearing them as clothes that change color and pattern. YOU could be a walking designer billboard! Oh man, heavy stuff!! Look OUT,! I’m gonna sing!!!

Hey, I used to know a lady by the name of Pelled. I called her "Miss Pelled". I was a teacher back then and she was in my literature class. Everyday when I used to call on her I would say "Miss Pelled"! and someone in the class would say, "What!!??" EVERYDAY!!!!
What a gas baby! It's a weird, wild, and wacky world out there but someone's gotta report it!
