The Samsung PS64F8500 is yet another extremely impressive plasma television from the Korean manufacturer, representing the boldest (and forgive us for saying it, but brightest) move yet from the company when it comes to plasma. It's without a doubt the be...
Spectacularly bright yet also contrast-rich pictures, Outstanding suite of online video services, Potent audio system
Some dithering noise in dark scenes, Occasional brightness 'jumps', Smart interface can be inscrutable
It's possible – just possible - that Panasonic's upcoming P65VT65 and P60ZT65 TVs might offer a little more all-round picture refinement than the upstart Samsung PS64F8500. But there should be no doubt that Samsung's revolutionary work in delivering a pla...
That may sound like effusive praise, but it's the truth. Within the realm of picture quality, Samsung's F8500 is absolutely awesome. The brightness this plasma achieves is worth praise alone, but its deep black levels and the accuracy of its colors are so...

Excellent black levels and shadow detail, Very good contrast ratio and dynamic range, Lack of PWM noise and clean looking images, Excellent out-of-the-box greyscale and colour, Reference greyscale and colour after calibration, Reference level 3D performan
Some dither noise in darker elements of the picture, Limited vertical viewing angles, HDMI inputs are too close to the edge, Input lag too high for serious gaming
The Samsung PS64F8500‘s new ‘Magnum' look may sound a bit Zoolander but we really like it and think the combination of design and function works perfectly. However we can understand why some people may not appreciate how much space will be required to pos...
Great picture quality, More features than any other HDTV, Breakthrough performance in welllit rooms
Expensive for a plasma TV
The Samsung PN60F8500 is a landmark plasma TV. Picture quality is stunning -- with black levels separated from the best performing plasma TVs ever made by the tiniest of margins, and at the head of this year's class. More important, picture quality is jus...

Although I've only reviewed a handful of HDTVs for Tom's Hardware, I've spent many years testing, calibrating, and comparing hundreds of displays of every conceivable type. For pure image quality, nothing surpasses plasma in my opinion. I am aware of what...
With close to six months of use in my den, I can easily say that Samsung's PN64F8500 Plasma Smart TV is an excellent TV with pretty well every feature any buyer would appreciate. If you are looking into buying a large TV that will not have to be upgr...
The Samsung PN60F8500 is the best Samsung HDTV we've ever reviewed. Its spectacular performance places it in the stratosphere of the finest 2013 HDTVs, and therefore, by extension, one of the best-looking TVs ever. Due to the aforementioned combination of...
F8500 offers all of Samsung's Smart TV features, including the questionable implementation of voice and gesture controls that we find very gimmicky. Samsung's 2013 Smart TV platform has improved a lot, including some apps, but the overall user experience...
Superb picture quality, Wide variety of smart TV apps, Ability to download lots more apps, Upgrade capability via plug-in box, Active shutter 3D glasses with Bluetooth/RF sync, Built-in camera for Skype, Built-in Wi-Fi, Content streaming to Samsung smartp
The whole remote control system leaves much to be desired (touch pad, gesture and voice control), No analog audio output/headphone output (seems to be a trend these days), Non-rechargeable 3D glasses come standard (rechargeable ones cost extra)
While Samsung touts the F8500's high-tech features, such as the touch pad remote, the facial and arm/hand gesture recognition and voice recognition, for me these features weren't nearly as compelling as the overall picture quality I experienced. Samsu...
