Samsung UE40H5500

 

At last, another really cheap TV we actually like

Outstanding value for money ; Good picture quality for a budget set ; Comprehensive Smart TV system

Some missing shadow detail after calibration ; A little motion blur ; Some noise over fine details

Finally we’d recommend turning off noise reduction while watching anything HD, as it tends to do more harm than good.

Samsung UE48H5500 review

 

A basic but big smart TV that punches above its weight

Speedy navigation ; Accurate, natural colours ; Smart Hub apps ; Standard definition upscalinh

Only three HDMI & two USB ; No 3D mode ; Some judder ; Shiny plastic look

The UE48H5500 is the best 48-inch TV for the price-conscious living room. Impressing with good colour and contrast, and both apps and navigation speed, it's a superb all-rounder going for a sweet price – though it does lack 3D.

Samsung UE48H5500 (H5500) TV Review

 

If you're not bothered about 3D or a fancy design, Samsung's entry-level Smart TV is an absolute bargain.

Great contrast ; Accurate colours ; Excellent smart features ; Superb price

Prosaic design ; Viewing angles aren't wide ; Some minor light spill

We think Samsung's UE48H5500 is tremendous value. In sheer picture quality terms, it’s more than a match for many TVs costing considerably more with great blacks, fantastic colours and excellent screen uniformity. What it lacks is a fancy design, any...

Samsung UE40H5500 (H5500) TV Review

 

Samsung's entry level Smart TV smashes the competition in terms of value, picture quality and Smart TV features

Great Pictures ; Fabulous Smart TV features ; Incredible value

Minor panel banding ; Viewing angles are narrow

Despite its rather run of the mill appearance, the Samsung UE40H5500 produces beautiful pictures and holds within a set of smart features that are the envy of many a flagship television. This is a TV which outperforms both its rank and current...

Samsung UN40H5500AFXZA

 

The Samsung UNH5500AFXZA series of midrange LED HDTVs deliver good picture quality, but also demand a premium price compared with similarly equipped screens in the same size range.

Solid performance. Good color accuracy. Sleek styling.

Comparatively expensive. Mediocre black levels.

Conclusion There's no doubt that Samsung's UN40H5500AFXZA is a quality HDTV, as it offers good color accuracy, and while the black level and contrast ratio aren't stellar, the viewing experience is still very solid. It's when we compare the Samsung's...

Samsung UN50H5500AFXZA

 

The Samsung UNH5500AFXZA series of midrange LED HDTVs delivers a good picture, but also demands a bit of a premium and a size compromise compared with similarly equipped screens.

Solid performance. Good color accuracy. Sleek styling.

Mediocre black levels. Pricey for the performance.

Conclusion There's no doubt that Samsung's UN40H5500AFXZA is a quality HDTV, as it offers good color accuracy, and while the black level and contrast ratio aren't stellar, the viewing experience is still very solid. It's when we compare the Samsung's...
