The perfect enhancer of the Curve TV

Verified Purchase:Yes
As I looked at my DVD The Fugitive from the 1960s, I realized that this Blu-Ray brings out even the slightest details in those shows! So I put in a dvd from the 2000s, and it was breathtaking. One thing that also impressed me about this thing is how I put in a dvd bootleg from years ago, and it detected it! It had a paragraph that popped up every 2 minutes talking about how this Blu-Ray player is built to detect piracy made DVDs. At first, I was nervous because I thought I was being signaled by some higher authorities, LOL! But of course, with everything else, you can Google this issue and learn to put in a code to remove the flashing alert. And even on that token, I have to compliment how it even makes bootleg DVDs look like they were sold by Best Buy itself!
In the end, I'm glad my 9000 series Curve TV 55-inch qualified to get this Blu-Ray thrown in for free, because it goes together perfectly. A curved Blu-Ray player with built-in WIFI ? Samsung's always thinking ahead. That's why them and Apple are neck ad neck every year.

The reason Samsung is on top

Let's see, where do I start? Living in Charlottesville where Xfinity is king, this TV has OLED's beat by split decision. I am so happy that I followed my hunch to upgrade from the TV me and my wife had. However, I took a gamble by buying it without fully "consulting" with her, largely because I knew that she would try to talk me out of it. Fortunately, when I got home from work one day, I saw that she took total advantage of the Netflix access which brings out the absolute best in the SUHD quality. Even though I eventually won her over, fellas learn from me and don't make such a gamble, because if this TV wasn't holding up to it's expectations, I would have had to face the music.
Anyway, what separates this new 9000 series from the OLED and other smart TVS is it's attention to detail. It even makes 1960's television shows and movies look near perfect. And for those of you who think a soundbar is mandatory? No it isn't. It sounds decent by itself, because in this series, the speakers in the TV have mini built in sub-woofers that provide a theater worthy sound. Of course, I heard this TV with the matching soundbar, and it does make a big difference, but that's an extra $1000 that can wait for now. After all with the cables, wall mount, and blu-ray player, this is a $3100 investment. So I'll eventually add the soundbar, because Samsung turned me into a home theater addict with this masterpiece.
If you like Samsung, BUY THIS. If I could afford to, I may have have got the 65 inch aka "The big boy" and shut it down! LOL, but this 55-inch is great in it's own right.
To be continued..............(My Blu-Ray review)

You can never go wrong with HDMI cables that come from known respectable companies. Take care of your stereo and get the best HDMI's available, and watch your stereo last for years to come.
