KS9000 Seriesby Samsung
PROS
- Samsung KS9000 Series TVs deliver the high brightness necessary to make high dynamic range content look its best.
- Quantum dot color technology on the KS9000 Series allows these sets to reproduce the extended color range found in new 4K sources such as Ultra HD Blu-ray.
- Samsung's KS9000 Series does an excellent job of making lower-resolution sources, including DVDs and standard-definition cable TV, look crisp on its Ultra High Definition screen.
CONS
- Contrast and color saturation both tend to fade somewhat when KS9000 Series sets are viewed from off-center seats.
- Samsung opted to drop 3D support for the KS9000 Series and other 2016 UHDTVs.
- Samsung's Auto Motion Plus, a feature that is turned on by default in all of the TV's preset picture modes, makes motion in film-based content such as movies and some TV dramas look unnatural.
