Future TV new experience! Samsung F8000 national first test

1 Samsung F8000 Overall Design and Appearance Features Back to Top

[PConline Review] The global market share of Samsung flat-panel TVs has been winning the championship for five consecutive years from 2009 to the present. What was Samsung TV, which was once regarded as a chaser, can continue to achieve breakthroughs in the last decade and become the leader of the industry? It is "design"! In the past, the TV market was dominated by "technology." Whoever has the technology to achieve higher picture quality will be able to grab more markets. Today, picture quality is still the primary consideration in TV selection, but it is no longer the only factor. The appearance of the product and the trial experience have gradually become an important consideration; combining these elements together and making it a TV with high picture quality and not only high picture quality is “design”. This is why "design" replaces "technology" as the decisive factor in the dominant market.

Starting from the D8000, Samsung TV is leading the trend of TV design. Last year's ES8000 received a lot of praise from the industry for its excellent overall design. This year's F8000 integrates product design, image quality technology and manufacturing technology. Together, once again surpassing previous generations of products, this has to be applauded. Now the real machine of this product has arrived at PConline evaluation room first, take a look at its strength.

As in previous years, Samsung Electronics will exhibit new top-of-the-line TVs at the annual CES. So this F8000 is not the first time we touch, but from the live image we may find it difficult to see the real difference between it and the previous generation, because only from the appearance point of view, both are doing very well.

At this year's Samsung China Forum, we finally had the opportunity to get close to this product and interact with the designers of the TV. From the information at that time, the F8000 adopted a new smart interface and the user experience has greatly improved. In addition, a new generation of smart remote controllers are also quite attractive. Compared with the previous two-stage design, the new remote controller's function classification and touch feeling are more reasonable and outstanding. Compared to the ES8000, the F8000 is thinner in appearance, but its net weight is nearly 2kg higher. As far as the author is concerned, the F8000 is more reasonable and better.

●Design

Compared to the D8000, the ES8000 has made great progress in the design. This year's F8000 seems to be difficult to see from the picture what new ideas, even if it seems that in addition to the large LCD panel, did not see any design elements. Doesn't this feel very strange? In fact, this is the highlight of the F8000 design.


Two highlights of the new moon time design - "crescent base" and "slim body"

The seemingly ordinary appearance is a “big leap forward” in product design for Samsung TVs. The external appearance of the users has been pleasing from the outside, and the level of attraction has evolved to reduce the external frame as much as possible while maintaining an elegant appearance. The interference of the base to the user watching TV, the appearance of the integration of practical and realm.

To achieve this from the design, TV "frame thickness", "side thickness", "base" and even LOGO are the focus of attention of designers. This involves not only the design of shape design, but also material selection and circuit design. Through the craftsmanship and science and technology, achieve the design idea of ​​appearance.

With the appearance design reacting to the quality of the picture, the appearance and quality of the picture are no longer distinctly different concepts. It becomes the organically integrated design. This is Samsung Electronics' latest development in the TV R&D terminal. The newly launched Samsung flagship model F8000 series smart TV continues Samsung's fashion elegant design concept, innovative new moon time design, so that the TV panel from the front looks like suspended midair, showing a simple atmosphere.

The official data shows that the frame thickness of the F8000 is 6.35 mm. Since we did not use a vernier caliper, we actually measured about 5.4 mm. There may be a slight error, but the overall result shows that this thickness is reduced by half compared to the previous generation ES8000! The outer frame of the ultra-narrow frame adopts the metal wire drawing process, although the effect of polishing on the color is not good, but the non-reflective characteristics are obviously more in line with the design concept of reducing the interference of the frame to the viewer as much as possible.

The F8000's camera has also been redesigned. Press it to hide the camera and press it again to re-pop, and he still retains the camera's adjustable angle. Like previous generations, the camera provides the physical basis for gesture control and facial recognition. It is an important tool for users to interact with smart TVs.

The designers of the F8000 miniaturized the LOGO. This design is also aimed at minimizing the impact of peripheral designs on viewers. Comparing two generations of LOGO before and after you can find that in addition to the LOGO becoming smaller, the material from the organic transparent body to a metal material, the illuminated part will also change from the background color to Samsung's English alphabet, so the light part is also smaller.

The base of the Samsung F8000 adopts a crescent shape. The load-bearing part occupying a larger volume is located on the back side of the television screen plane. The support part is two slender legs. In order to make it strong enough, the overall use of metal materials.

Through these designs, from the front of the TV, the tripod gives only a very slight presence.

The fuselage thickness of the F8000 is only 14.2mm, which is more than half the thickness of the previous generation 30mm. I believe this is due to the progress of its backlight technology and hemming design.

2 Samsung F8000 back function module and configuration back to the top

The F8000's seamless backplane design features a panel covering the interface area of ​​the official product, so that no interface is visible on the entire backside. This is the meaning of the seamless backplane design.

As can be seen from the label on the back, the production base of the F8000 is located in Tianjin, with a nominal rated power of 80W. Compared with the previous generation, its power value has significantly decreased.

The back of the F8000 adopts a two-stage design. The lower half of the circuit occupied by the circuit is slightly thicker than the upper half. The number of interfaces is also somewhat different from that of the ES8000. The interface is more humanized and distributed according to the function. The external side is frequently used. Media interfaces, such as USB, audio and HDMI interfaces (interface 4), are relatively fixed, and interfaces that are not frequently plugged in are located in the lower interface area. In addition, the configuration has also been slightly upgraded, with an increase in the frequency of use of the highest HDMI interface, AV analog interface has also increased by one.

We have only one remote controller in the prototype package. It is an upgraded product based on the previous generation smart remote controller. Samsung upgraded the F8000's smart system, and the smart remote controller has also evolved. Divided into three functional areas.

Under actual operation, a new generation of smart remote controllers have a better touch and a shorter time to find keys. With the new smart interface, the experience of Samsung Smart TV has been greatly improved.

The Samsung F8000 has improved the smart application system. It changed the previous single-home format. The new interface is more similar to the operation of the smart phone or tablet. The more convenient application interface switching is obviously more beneficial to the daily use of the user. We have already started pressing the Smart Hub button to browse various media information of external devices.

In addition, the first screen of the application interface can see more application icons than the first generation. This may be due to the hardware upgrade of the F8000. This undoubtedly facilitates the daily use of the application (there is no need to switch between multifaceted applications. time).

With regard to the experience of the Samsung Smart System, we will open another evaluation article for everyone to further explain, so stay tuned.

The Samsung F8000 uses shuttered 3D technology. The 3D glasses have made some minor changes from previous generations of products. The packaging aspect is slightly different from the previous products.

Summary: After having intimate contact with the appearance of the product and the hardware, what makes us feel the greatest is the design concept of the product. The appearance of the F8000 is no longer just designed for good looks, and every small design highlight has its significance. And the goals all point to a design origin. This product industrial design can truly become a "design." Below we will make an objective evaluation of the product's image quality and other hard indicators. Let's take a look at the soft power of the F8000, in addition to the external ones.

3 Samsung F8000 image quality evaluation data back to the top

●Detailed data quality measurement

First of all, we use the evaluation room professional instrument to conduct detailed tests on the F8000. During the test, we adjusted the Samsung F8000 to the standard image mode and the backlight was adjusted to the brightest.

Samsung UA55F8000AJ quality test data
model
Samsung UA55F8000
Samsung UA55ES8000
The central brightness is 379.83cd/m2 382.85cd/m2 The average brightness is 337.38cd/m2 383.78cd/m2
Dynamic contrast
2922 : 1 6380:1
ANSI contrast
2108.62 : 1 709.06:1 Color saturation (equivalent to NTSC) 75.92% 74.71%

The results of this test can be seen in the F8000 although the central brightness, average brightness and dynamic contrast than ES8000 (in fact, the dynamic contrast of the image quality is not high, more reference is ANSI contrast), but the measured The uniformity of brightness is significantly better, so the ANSI contrast figures increase greatly, and the color gamut is slightly higher, and the overall performance is better than that of the ES8000.

After the detection of the color analyzer, it can be seen that the Samsung F8000 reached 75.92% NTSC color gamut, which is slightly higher than the ES8000 by one percentage point. This is a normal performance in LCD TVs. According to the close-up picture of the pixel, it can be found that the ES8000's RGB sub-pixels are the same as the ES8000, so it may be that the light control section has made some minor improvements; this panel is believed to be produced by the Samsung Display (Samsung Display).

From the real shot diagram, we can see that the F8000's screen color transition is natural, there is no clear dividing line, indicating that the F8000's color transition smoothness is very good.

Although the average brightness of the F8000 is slightly lower than that of its predecessor, the overall performance is not weak, and the brightness of 337.38 is actually not low. The high brightness obviously has a great effect on the screen brightness of the shutter 3D. Let's take a look at the other objective test parameters in brightness. Putting them together, we can judge the picture quality more objectively.


We did a PS process to let everyone see the brightness uniformity of the all black state.

A slight highlight of the picture can be more clearly see the light leakage of the panel, compared to the previous generation, the light leakage part is basically the same, more obvious on both sides, this is a side-mounted backlight dysentery, but the middle of the screen light leakage situation Greatly improved. Overall, the brightness uniformity of the black screen is excellent in side backlight products.

The ANSI contrast ratio is the contrast ratio measured using the ANSI standard (ANSI - American National Standards Institute) test method. The ANSI contrast test method uses 16 black and white color patches, and the average value of the 8 white areas is the average value of the 8 black areas. The ratio is ANSI contrast.

Compared to the dynamic contrast converted from the brightest point and the darkest point on the screen, this means that the reference value close to the average contrast is more realistic, because the user does not notice the screen when the screen is dark The difference between the values ​​is larger and the quality of the picture is defined, but the picture of the light and dark difference perception of the more dynamic picture is more or less detailed.

From the actual evaluation results, the F8000's ANSI contrast and dynamic contrast values ​​only differ by more than 800, which is very large compared with ES8000 (ES8000's ANSI contrast is only 709.06:1), also shows that its brightness uniformity performance is very good , higher contrast on the TV's picture detail will be of great help.

What is ANSI?

American National Standards Institute (ANSI - American National Standards Institute) A voluntary organization of companies, governments, and other members. They negotiate standards-related activities, review US national standards, and strive to improve the U.S. position in the international standardization organization. In addition, ANSI has developed international standards and U.S. standards related to communications and networking. ANSI is a member of IEC and ISO.

The dynamic picture performance of the product is not much improved compared with the previous generation products. I believe that the same technology is used. In the actual test, the F8000 has a superior high-speed dynamic effect that is consistent with the ES8000. The picture taken with a high-speed shutter can see a slight drag. Shadow phenomenon, but the actual viewing, the naked eye is difficult to tell. Excellent dynamic performance, television will have outstanding performance in applications such as games and sports competitions.

● TV power consumption measured

Since the backlight of the F8000 is adjusted to the highest state and the power consumption exceeds the rated 80W, it seems that this bright side-mounted LED backlight and light guide plate system is still a big consumer of power, and the power consumption is basically kept above 135W, but with the ES8000 In comparison, the power fluctuation is very small.

The overall power consumption of more than 100 watts, in fact, is equivalent to the power consumption of two fluorescent lamps, it takes almost 10 hours to consume 1 kWh, I believe that users who buy high-end TVs will not be too concerned about the cost of electricity costs.

4 Samsung F8000 Review Summary and Purchase Suggestions Back to Top

● quality test real shot map

The screen shots of the F8000 playing Blu-Ray test discs and real shots of some high-definition wallpapers are also provided below, which can give an overview of their picture quality. Including full HD signal, grayscale, color, contrast, black level and color test screen.

It can be seen from the real shot chart that the color saturation of F80000 is moderate and there is a slight reddish, but it is not obvious. As a whole, the color is still relatively accurate and normal. The overall screen brightness is even and the dark details are rich. The overall screen style is still characterized by high brightness and high sharpness. The image quality level is slightly higher than that of the ES8000 (mainly brightness uniformity).

● Samsung F8000 price analysis

At present, Samsung's 55-inch F8000 online offer is about 1,999 yuan, as a flagship TV, and the previous generation of the product's listing price is not much difference (ES8000 initial listing price of 18,999 yuan). At present, the products with comparable prices in the market include Sony's new W950, Sharp LX840 and its own ES8000 and F7500.

Sony's new picture quality this year we can not evaluate how, according to last year's situation, the ES8000's picture quality and HX850 in Bozhong, this year's W950 did not advertise whether it has direct type LED backlight technology, so can generally judge the F8000's paintings At least not worse than the W950. Picture quality netizens can go to the store site to experience a comparison.

At the level of the overall design, the F8000 clearly surpasses its rivals. With the smart operation of the technology and its excellent experience, the F8000 will undoubtedly have higher competitiveness in the high-end LCD TV market.
