The 3D effect sometimes produces ghost images and there are some image issues from any angle.

At 46 inches, the Samsung LED 8000 UE46C8000 is large enough to be spectacular, but not so ridiculously oversized that it'll dominate your living room. The price is good given the wealth of features, and the overall quality is very good, with the...

Most people would refer to UE65C8000 as a massive TV. With its 65in screen, this behemoth is about as big as mainstream 3D televisions get. The viewing distance for a screen of this size is 3m–4.5m, though, so those with really small rooms need...

Apart from a different coloured frame that's been shaved down a few millimetres, it's hard to tell the difference between the C8000 and the C7000. Both produce very similar pictures both in 2D and 3D, so we find the higher price tag hard to...

Like the larger models in the range, the UE40C8000 improves on the 3D performance of its C7000 sibling and seems to have addressed (if not completely removed) those annoying backlight issues. If you are open to buying an LCD or Plasma and want the...
