When Samsung first debuted their curved TVs, the world gasped in awe. Their Curved 4K UHD HU9000 takes that curved design and ups the ante with a UHD resolution display. But is this 4K TV really worth 4 grand? Yes. And here’s why.
1. UHD Content and Upscaling
4K content on the UHD HU9000 looks absolutely brilliant. That said, the amount of 4K content available out there is still quite limited. We did however try streaming 4k content from Amazon Prime and Netflix onto the HU9000, and the experience took our breath away. To that effect, you can see every wrinkle on Kevin Spacey’s face while watching House of Cards, and it’s both disturbing yet beautiful all at once. Fortunately, despite the fact that there is a limited amount of 4K content available out there now, the HU9000 will upscale content to UHD. That means that even good “old” 1080P content looks amazing when being played back on this TV.
2. The Apps
The Samsung Smart TV eco-system offers one of the most comprehensive app catalogs you’ll find on a smart TV. So aside from the big players like Netflix and Hulu, you’ll find everything from the Seagate Media app, to the Time Warner Cable app, and plenty of other useful gems that aren’t easily available on other smart TVs.
