Samsung UE50AU8000

The 8000 series sections of Samsung’s annual range refreshes have consistently impressed us in recent years, hitting a price meets performance sweet spot we’ve found hard to resist. Hopes have been high, then, for 2021’s UE50AU8000. Especially as it delivers its 50in 4K screen, extensive HDR support and excellent smart system for a mere £479.
It has to be said that this segment of the 4K TV market has started to get seriously crowded and, like all of Samsung’s ‘AU’ models, the 50AU8000 doesn’t benefit from the brand’s QLED colour technology. Even so, history is definitely on its side.
Price anomaly
Remarkably and bizarrely, the UE50AU8000 is actually currently cheaper than the supposedly less well specified, less high-performance Samsung UE50A7100. This might be enough in itself to have eager TV bargain hunters reaching for their wallets.
We can’t make the same sort of comparison
