The image is good with the following conditions:
1) You need to make some changes to the settings to get satisfactory contrast, blacks, brightness, and realistic colors.

2) You should sit relatively in front of the TV and not at a wide angle. Unfortunately, I notice that it doesn't perform well at viewing angles. From 20 degrees and onwards, the blacks start to fade and the colors appear less vibrant. At 15-20 degrees, it's not very noticeable, but the larger the angle, the worse the phenomenon becomes. Tip: If you view the TV at an angle in your living room, you can go to a showroom that has this model and test it from the same angle.

There is no backlight bleeding, and the clouding is minimal.

The sound is OK. It covers the basic needs of a TV.

The construction is average. Quite a bit of plastic. For its price, it's fine.

The user experience is quite fast and pleasant. Navigating between applications won't tire you. The menu is user-friendly and fast.

The voice commands via Bixby are fun, but Greek is not supported. However, if you speak English, you can easily order a song-video on YouTube or do a search on Google.

The remote control is minimal without the classic number buttons.

For the 500 euro category, I think it's a decent choice.

For an average user who doesn't want many things, there are other more economical solutions.

Multiview is not supported by iOs devices. After a lot of personal research and communication with Samsung's customer service department (God bless them...) who had no idea about many capabilities not only of this specific model but also of many others, I found that the 8500 series and the Q60 have Multiview 1.0 which does not support iOs devices. For real multiview (channel or hdmi & mirror screen), the TV must have multiview 2.0 (i.e. the Q70T series and above).

I do not recommend it. Not at all.

  Good evening, I read the comment below and I have exactly the same problem after two years and some months, the screen restarted. The technician from the service center told me that the screen needs to be replaced and they will inform me about the cost. It is unacceptable for such an expensive television to break in such a short period of time. If the repair is not cost-effective, I will not buy Samsung products again, nor will I recommend them. This is the second television of the same brand that I have purchased and it breaks after the warranty period.

  Very mediocre for its price, you can definitely find something more affordable with the same features. 2 years and 2 months after purchasing it, the TV started restarting on its own and after 2-3 service stores, Samsung representatives, and wherever I took it, the final diagnosis from everyone was that it needs a panel replacement (500 euros), which obviously is not worth it. The official response from Samsung was that because it is 2 months after the warranty expired, they cannot provide any assistance. Needless to say, I will not be buying any products from Samsung again!

  Very good screen overall. I have had the TV for several months, so it has been tested at all levels and I am very satisfied. Okay, the construction is quite plasticky like all Samsung products nowadays and maybe not as solid in terms of construction. But guys, okay, for the money, it's super, I don't want to complain about it! Enjoy!

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  The television is incredible. No problem in any area. Perfect sound-image-no "freezing"-very good viewing angle (I wonder how some people see a problem, unless they are looking from behind)-instant connection to the active channels-light construction (does not require a heavy construction wall mount), etc... everything perfect. Of course, I would buy it again, and I recommend it without a second thought.
  edit: After two (2) years of use, the television is simply UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!! No "freezing", sturdy construction, no scratches on the plastic or on the screen (which some people claim..!!!??), absolutely no sound distortion even at the lowest volume 1-2, nor at high volume (which some people claim..!!??), absolutely no problem. IT IS PERFECT!!!

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  At first glance, I am quite satisfied. Nice colors, amazing sound, very good base. In the 2 days that I have it, it has not disconnected from the network, and I have not noticed any freezing. Switching from channel to channel takes about 2 seconds, which is okay personally, I haven't had a TV that does it faster. From an angle, there is a slight difference in colors, but nothing significant. At the price of 430, it is a good choice along with a couple more. The main drawback is the black light bleeding, not excessive but it exists around the edges. What I didn't see and would like to see is a self-diagnostic so that I don't have to bother with tests now, etc., but I will have to do it necessarily. The menu is okay for me, it wasn't complicated because I deal with gadgets, my parents were a little disappointed when they saw the minimalist control, but everything was fine once I explained the basic functions to them. It's not difficult. The assembly was funny, only 8 screws in total... Overall, quite satisfied, I will come back later for a better evaluation and any potential problems or deficiencies that I haven't noticed yet.
  UPDATE: 31-12-2021, the screen had a line like a water droplet running on it. Essentially, the pixels in that area were blurry. The screen was repaired (the panel was replaced), and I was without a TV for 2 weeks

  Kids, even the smallest cent is worth it. Before I bought it, I searched a lot. I compared it with nanocell at the same price and inches "55" and with qled, as well as with the other 8000, 8200, 8300, and yes, I got anxious like everyone else about the viewing angles that everyone talks about, the whites that they say the lighting is not enough, and the sound that is supposed to be plastic. Nonsense! The TV is unbeatable. If you don't mess with the settings to unleash the beast it hides, then yes, you will say different things. But you can get the result you want and how you want it with two changes in the settings. Always for home use.
  Finally, I don't think anyone would want to watch at such an angle that this TV doesn't cover, and as for the sound, kids, it's very good for a TV. If you want cinema sound, go for 5.1 or 7.1 speakers. And be careful, it only has optical audio output (which is very correct for me), if you want a jack, forget it or buy an adapter. And one last thing, after experiencing the 4k HDR of this one, I don't think you'll want to go anywhere else... "EXCEPT OLED". I hope I helped. If I see something negative, I will come back.
  Purchased from a well-known chain for 560 at the end of February 2021.

  P.S. Indeed, the build quality is not very good, but I don't intend to play with the plastics or throw it down to test its durability.

  This review is about the diagonal: 50 "

  It was purchased in July 20th and from the beginning, the back of the TV makes a scratching sound (like when you put a hair on old TVs in front of the screen... like an electric and plastic sound). I informed Samsung and they replied that it is a normal sound because the processor and parts of the TV make that sound when they are in high resolution or when using YouTube or Netflix due to contraction and expansion. UNACCEPTABLE to buy an entertainment medium and hear scratching sounds while watching a movie!!! The plastic parts also make noise just by touching them, their quality is terrible! The image is very good though! but what can you do when the build quality is bad!

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  Very good television, purchased for €450 with a 5-year warranty from a well-known chain.
  It was preferred (besides the resolution and smart functions) for the user-friendly remote control and the unique stand (which has great stability, the same as the 65" model of the series). The color performance is indeed very good. Also, it is a quite beautiful television in terms of design. The viewing angles are okay. Navigation through the menu is easy.
  However, the sound is a problem. While it is generally satisfactory, the right speaker produces a crackling sound if played at medium volume and above. It is likely a more general issue with this particular television from what I read, although I planned to use it with a 2.1 Soundbar anyway because, no matter what, it has better performance compared to any built-in TV speakers. It is not certain that you will have this problem, but keep it in the back of your mind.
  Overall, though, it is a very good purchase.

  Attention all, both the specific models and the Q60 have an issue with the sound. Simply try setting the sound to 1-2 and listen for the interference. A technician from Samsung came today and made some adjustments, but the problem still remains (as he himself noticed). It is a problem with the series, not the specific TV, and Samsung has not yet provided a fix. Unacceptable for those who are experiencing this issue

  I got the 55-inch on sale from a big store, originally priced at 599 euros, with a 10% discount in the basket and a 20% return with the National card, final price 431 euros. Absolute value for money.
  On SD channels, it has a pretty good picture for its size, on HD it's very good, and it's amazing on 4K. Of course, it needs the necessary settings. It lacks a bit in viewing angles after 45 degrees, like all VA panels, but it's not something that bothers me so much. It has incredible black and amazing colors. The sound in the enhancement option is very good, clear with bass and enough volume, I didn't expect it. The remote control is very convenient and user-friendly. Tizen, the apps, and generally all the smart content work perfectly, without the slightest delay. The media player is flawless, fast with many settings for image and subtitles.
  On the negative side: I would prefer it to have side legs instead of the central stand so that the soundbar can fit in between. Also, I would like it to have brighter HDR, in case it is placed in a bright room (in regular 4K, 1080p it's fine).
  My first choice was the Q60T but I couldn't find it on sale. (always in 55", several 50" Q60s and some tu8502 have sound issues, in these two models, go for the 55-inch. In 50", I would choose the LG nano796 which has a VA panel and is equally good. The nano in 55" has an IPS panel).
  A very good purchase, completely satisfied with the money I spent.

  I have the TV here for a week now, 55 inches at 578 euros. It is flawless in everything, picture, menu ease, connecting with my phone and all peripherals very easily and smartly, and its construction is decent. All of these I expected, but what impressed me a lot is the sound. I haven't seen any other TV with such sound, both in volume and quality. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for this size and such money.

  Satisfied with the television and how I'm not coming from a 2009 Samsung!
  Great picture and from the side, fast menu that doesn't lag. HOWEVER, the sound doesn't satisfy me. It's a shame though that from what I understand, a soundbar is the only solution. It's value for money!

  I wanted to add that it's not possible to install 3rd party applications. Unfortunately, I didn't look into it and it's something that is annoying for me because I will need to buy a box (e.g. Roku)

  I have purchased the 43" model for €399. I was very hesitant to buy a Samsung TV as the company has discounted its 2020 models. However, the TV has very good image quality in 4k content, HDR (dual led), and support for iOS devices. Lastly, it does not have backlight bleed (at least not yet)

  Owner of the 65-inch model. I have had it for 2 months. My previous TV was the flagship television from Samsung for 2014, purchased for 2000 euros. I was afraid it wouldn't meet my expectations. I was wrong.... it's amazing. However, be careful... like all TVs, it needs calibration in its settings.

  This review is about the diagonal: 50 "

  Initially, I was torn between this TV and the QE50Q60T. After reading reviews about the sound of the latter, I was convinced that I made the best choice! Without being an expert in TVs, I have to say that it is amazing. The color performance is fantastic, the sound is crystal clear and quite powerful. The viewing angles are very good as you can comfortably watch from the sides. Personally, I really liked the stand and prefer it over the legs. Switching between channels, Netflix, etc. is very fast. The only thing I understand that might bother some people is the remote control, which is very minimal and a bit difficult to use, especially at first. However, I got used to it and handle it comfortably! Go ahead and get it, it's worth every cent!

  I have had it for 3 weeks and I haven't found anything negative, except for the exterior design which was expected for this price. If you are considering connecting it to the internet constantly, the 4K resolution plays at the corresponding speed of your connection, so keep that in mind.

  I received it on December 2nd, at 55 inches for 550 euros. In terms of appearance, it's nothing special for me at least. It has a V-shaped stand (the TV wobbles if you move it) and it doesn't have those legs on both ends. It has a pretty good VA panel with good contrast. I prefer to watch it in a room with low or no lighting. It has many picture settings and there are videos and suggestions on the internet on how to adjust it according to the content you're watching, to suit your preferences. The sound is quite good and it has Bluetooth to connect a soundbar. You can learn about its functions and the remote control if you spend a few hours with it. It doesn't have an Android operating system, but it has all the classic apps installed and several more that you can install. It responds quickly to remote control commands and is quite fast, at least compared to my previous 42-inch Sony TV from seven years ago, which I believe has better picture quality on digea high definition. I don't play games, so I don't know how the picture is for gaming. In its price category, I believe it stands out from the rest. I consider it a relatively good purchase for the money it asks for.

  I bought it for 545 euros and it's worth every euro. Obviously, it needs a 5+1 soundbar because the sound on the TVs is mediocre. As for the colors, as it is set up, it doesn't have nice colors and needs adjustment. I adjusted the picture to the dynamic view, lowered the contrast a bit, and it improved significantly. During the initial setup through the mobile, the application froze and the setup continued from the remote control. Once the setup was completed, the SmartThings app was working fine, so you can also open and close the TV through your mobile. The most difficult part is arranging the channels in numerical order, it's a bit complicated. You go to the live TV menu, click on a submenu, edit it, and change the numbering of the channels. Only Samsung for TVs and only iPhone for mobiles, guys. Good continuation with health

  I have it for about 3 months. Something more than perfect for a purchase around 500€. I would highly recommend it. Very beautiful image out of the box, reproduces excellently lower resolution material (full hd, tv signal, etc). Sturdy stand, nice motion handling with the interpolation tricks that I hate disabled and airy, with fast responsive operating system.

  For 450€ on a 50-inch screen, it's a great value for money. The picture quality is very good. It comes with a small white remote control, which is actually very practical. I've had it for a month and I'm completely satisfied. Also, I should add that it has exceptional sound.

  This review is about the diagonal: 50 "

  Amazing picture (for my own eyes as a regular user)
  Perfect viewing angle, you can see normally and almost sideways if you sit
  Perfect black as if it is turned off
  What impressed me the most is their speakers, clear powerful sound and very good bass, I have not encountered such good sound on a television.
  The control may be difficult for someone older but for me it is amazing, small and very convenient.
  Changes from Netflix, Prime, Rakuten, Apple TV are lightning fast
  Finally, very stable and high-quality stand
