Abstract: The F8500 series is Samsung’s 2013 flagship plasma TV line and is available in three different sizes, 64” (PN64F8500), 60” (PN60F8500), and 51” (PN51F8500). There’s no doubt that these are nice TVs, but they're also extremely expensive (over $4k for th...
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 gesture still needs some work.
s Samsung 8500 - A Few Minor Flaws Despite being a glorious home cinema TV we'd install in our own movie rooms in a heartbeat, the Samsung 8500 isn't wholly flawless. The push for extra brightness, for starters, has caused a couple of minor distractions. ...
Great brightness levels (for a plasma), Excellent contrast, detail, colour accuracy, Samsung's class-leading Smart TV tech
Relatively high power consumption, Panasonic's plasmas are cheaper
If you can afford the $20 a year in extra power, Samsung's top plasma TV is by far the best choice for watching high quality video. We think it's equal to Panasonic's best plasmas for black level and overall contrast, with an extra boost in available brig...

Terrific picture packed with fine detail and strong contrasts, Natural colour palette, Strong blacks, Impressive range of features, Decent sound
Voice and gesture controls still frustrate, Some rivals produce a more overtly impressive picture
No set is perfect, of course and it's fair to say that in some respects – most noticeably the way voice and gesture control works – there is clear room for improvement. But, given the vast range of smart content and generally excellent picture quality ...
