Works great...if they'll work
on October 17, 2015

So I've had my television, the 55HU9000, for about a year now. The television is amazing, easily the best one I've owned ever. These glasses though are terrible. I purchased the television as an upgrade from my previous 55B8000 because I wanted something with 4k and 3d. The television came with 4 pairs of glasses and 8 batteries and as Samsung advertises the average battery life is about 70 hours. So if you think about it 8 batteries should last a little over 500 hours of 3d viewing. I've watched maybe 10 3D movies since purchasing the television and all the original batteries are dead. I went out and purchased new batteries last month when Mad Max Fury Road came out on Blu-Ray. I put a fresh battery into a pair of glasses and they worked amazingly. I finished the film ensured the television and glasses were all powered off and put the glasses away. A few weeks later I go to watch Avengers Age of Ultron after it was released on 3D Blu-Ray and the battery is dead. I haven't put anywhere near 70 hours of 3-D viewing into the television let alone get that from a single battery. Samsung has yet to provide rechargeable 3-D glasses for this or any future 3-D television which I would gladly purchase to avoid never having to use these terrible battery operated glasses again. Samsung makes amazing products in general but avoid having to use these glasses if you can. They are complete and utter trash.
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worked better than I ever expected

I didn't buy my Samsung TV for 3D, but I figured I'd go on and buy an extra set of glasses, so my wife and I could check out the feature together. I was blown away by how well the 3D feature worked. I hadn't seen anything in 3D since seeing a movie in a theater when I was a kid a long time ago.
Pros: Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing 3D viewing at home

A couple years ago, I purchased a Samsung 3D blu ray player, last year I purchased a Samsung 3D TV and now I have the 3D glasses. Does a pretty good job of adding depth to 2D content and does an amazing job of reproducing the 3D in theaters via 3D content through Samsung's SmartHub apps and 3D blu ray disc. I'm very pleased with this purchase. The only thing that would be a minor complain is that the lenses are large enough to view the television but the frames are always in your field of view so you never forget you're wearing glasses.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

product failure

Having bought 6 glasses I noticed them failing one by one. With new batteries installed they will not connect with the tv. Only 1 pair still works. When you try to turn them on the green light goes on then changes to red and it powers off.
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: do not work long
I would recommend this to a friend!

Does as advertised, except battery life

These being polarization based actively shuttered glasses, one can expect color fidelity and overall good performance when paired correctly. My UN55JS8500 does not appear to have trouble with that.
However, my biggest surprise was that the claimed 70 hours of battery life were much shorter in real life. On the first day (!) I played with the glasses for a few minutes and they may have spent an hour or two in standby when I realized that the battery power dropped from 100% to about 1/3. That's the equivalent of one movie, with less than half a movie left!!!!
As mentioned, it shouldn't be due to not powering them off when not used as there wasn't much idle time to begin with (same day). But even if there was, the on/off state is difficult to determine as supposedly they blink 3x when turning on or off in green or red respectively. Well sometimes they blink once in the expected color and sometimes one green one red blink. No idea which state we're in if the tv wouldn't at least at pairing notify you. With the tv off it's virtually impossible to figure out whether it's on or off.
Other than that, the design is good and fits even large heads without feeling bulky. They are glasses you you'll end up looking thru frames, but it's bearable and the 3D in some movies is worth it.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: actual battery life, power status
I would recommend this to a friend!

The work well with my series 6. Both my wife and I wear glasses, and they fit nicely. Connecting (pairing) is a one button process. Even easier than my Nintendo controllers. Very satified.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: none
