Co-Worker Selling an Old Samsung U8000 Series
I don't have high expectations for this model, but he's offering a 65" version for $100.
Samsung 65-inch Class Crystal UHD TU-8000 Series 4K UHD HDR Smart TV (UN65TU8000FXZA, 2020 Model).
Worth the plunge? I'm using a 14-year-old 47" 1080p Vizio paired with a 2017 Nvidia Shield. Admittedly, the picture quality on the Vizio has always been pretty good, especially with motion and without fake-looking smoothing, etc. I'd keep using the Shield on the Samsung.
I was looking at making my next TV purchase a Sony OLED, but if $100 is worth it to level up the Vizio, I might consider it. It costs me nothing (literally) to walk away and move on with life.
I haven't heard amazing things about this series, so I'm not ranking it against today's TVs. I'm ranking it against what I currently have.
Thanks for your thoughts!
