Dynamic Crystal Colour
Whether you're bingeing on a boxset or feasting on a blockbuster, you’ll see everything in crystal clear and lifelike colour. Dynamic Crystal Colour delivers rich and vibrant images in over one billion shades – 64 times more than conventional UHD TVs.

AirSlim with Centre Stand
You don’t just want your TV to look good when it's on - you want it to blend into your room when it's off too. This TV has a slim design with a clean cable solution, so it will look stunning from any angle.

Crystal Processor 4K
Think of the processor as the brain of the TV, working in the background to improve the picture and sound quality. Simply relax and enjoy the content you love whilst the TV boosts the quality to 4K detail and adjusts the sound depending on what's playing. Streaming movies or watching live sport, you’ll feel part of the action.

HDR powered by HDR10+
High Dynamic Range opens up previously hidden depth and detail in the lightest and darkest scenes for a more lifelike viewing experience.

Contrast Enhancer
Enjoy striking images with enhanced depth and colour contrast ratio.

Gaming Hub
Samsung Gaming Hub brings together the biggest console and streaming games from Xbox and other industry-leading partners, all in on one place.* With no downloads, storage limits or console required, just turn on your TV and play**

Motion Xcelerator
Experience clear picture and smooth performance with Motion Xcelerator. Samsung’s clear motion rate algorithms predict and automatically compensate frames, so your picture adapts as fast as your game.

Auto Game Mode
With Auto Game Mode, your TV knows when you're ready to play so it automatically switches to minimise input lag and optimise picture settings. It's never been quicker to lose yourself in a fantasy world.

Object Tracking Sound LITE
Object Tracking Sound Lite chooses which of the TVs front speakers the sound comes through depending on where the action is happening on screen. So you can hear a car fly along your screen or the crowd cheering all around you.

Samsung Q-Symphony
Heighten your viewing experience with the benefit of great sound quality delivered from both the TV speakers and soundbar, at the same time. Get the audio experience your Samsung TV deserves.

Adaptive Sound
Whether you're watching sports, the news or the latest blockbuster, your audio needs are different. Adaptive Sound recognises the content on screen and adjusts the sound to what you're watching. Whether the director’s intent is to make you feel part of the crowd or centre stage, the TV will fulfil.

SolarCell Remote
Replace the clutter of remotes with a SolarCell One Remote. It charges on indoor light and keeps its charge from Radio-Frequency power harvesting, so you don’t need any disposable batteries.

Multi View
Never miss another moment. With Multi View, you can play your mobile content alongside the TV, all at once, on the same screen. Handy if you want to keep an eye on the football score whilst watching a movie.

Samsung TV Plus

Bixby or Amazon Alexa – take your pick*. Ask them to change the volume, find that new series, bring up your holiday photos, or check on your connected devices in your smart home. The possibilities are endless – you just need to ask.

Samsung Knox*
Samsung Knox ensures that confidential and sensitive data stays safe, with mutli-layered security; automatic blocking of harmful attacks; and constant audits, updates and monitoring. It even protects all the Home IoT devices connected to your TV. It's your privacy, secured.

AI Energy Saving Mode
