Samsung's 2011 HDTV lineup is one of the strongest around in a take-no-prisoners market and their UN55D8000 is currently one of their flagship products. Retailing for just south of $3000, the D8000 has the hallmarks of a genre defining TV and boasts more features than any one person can use....at least on paper. We've had our fair share of experiences with lackluster performance from high end products so let's hope this one will deliver on all it promises.
