PAIR IT WITH…

It looks impressive before you even switch it on, thanks to a ‘boundless’ frame (Samsung speak for a very thin bezel), but the picture really is punching above its weight. Everything looks pin-sharp, sure, but it’s the subtlety that really drops jaws. There’s enough definition to count the individual raindrops on a windscreen, plus the clarity to make out the accompanying condensation. HDR video goes even further. Instead of simple solar brightness and abyssal blacks, you get fine increments of shade.

You’ll have to spend a lot more to get a better TV than this – what Samsung has pulled off here is nothing short of spectacular.
