**New for 2015. The UN65JS9000 is Samsung’s high end 65-inch second generation of Curved Screen 4K Ultra HD TVs from Samsung. For 2015 Samsung is introducing SUHD line of TVs that have the new Nano Crystal (Quantum Dots) technology, including the JS9000 Series. This technology has produced the best LED TV picture Samsung has ever produced. The SUHD Nano Crystal technology produces a brighter picture, 10x deeper blacks, and up to 64X enhanced color detail, for more natural vivid colors. A 4K Ultra HD TV provides 3840 x 2160 resolution, which is four times the resolution of Full HD. This allows you to sit closer to a larger TV and get the immersive movie theater experience, especially with the curved screen. Most movie theaters now use a 4K projector, so in effect you will have movie theater resolution in the home. This TV is 3D Ready and comes with 1 pair of active 3D Glasses. Watching 3D content on a 4K TV meets or exceeds that of movie theater quality.


Advanced 4K Picture Quality: The Samsung UN65JS9000 4K 65-inch LED backlit TV includes Samsung’s advanced Precision Black Local Dimming with UHD Micro Dimming LED edge backlight technology for the deeper blacks and colors. PurColor (more natural colors) and Wide Color Enhancer Plus are premium features of this TV. The upgraded Ultra Clear Pro Panel eliminates reflections, and boosts the contrast ratio. The 240 Motion Rate anti-blur technology combines a native 120Hz Panel along with backlight control to provide blur free, clear motion, great for sports and fast moving action. This model is HDR-capable, using its Peak Illuminator Pro feature.

Best of 2015 Smart-Review Commentary: For 2015, The 65-inch UN65JS9000 4K TV is Samsung’s high end Curved LED 4K TV and comes fully loaded. The SUHD line of TVs are the first ones from Samsung with Quantum Dots (Nano Crystals). Nano Crystals will increase brightness and give much richer colors than normal TVs, as well as 10x deeper blacks. This is a big improvement for LED TVs. 4K Ultra HD resolution will give you 8 megapixels of screen, versus only 2 megapixels in regular HD. This is the future of TVs and in the next couple of years, 4K will be the new standard, just as 1080p TVs are now. 4K Ultra HD is the same resolution as the movie theater, and will give you a more immersive experience, as the pixels are 4 times smaller, and you can sit much closer to the TV. Native 4K content is just emerging. Native 4K Blu-ray players will be introduced in 2015. Netflix and Amazon already have 4K content and more is on the way. This TV comes with the latest 4K standards: including HDMI 2.0 , and HEVC (h.265) decoder built-in. These will allow high speed 4K (60fps) and 4K Streaming. The 2015 4K TVs have been upgraded to 802.11ac WiFi, the latest wireless standards to support streaming 4K video. Its 3D Ready and comes with 1 pair of 3D glasses. This and the JS9500 Series TVs are the first with an Octa-Core Processor, the most powerful ever put in a Samsung TV. Precision Black Local Dimming is one of our favorite features from previous models. SmartView 2.0 allows you to view content from your Smartphone or Tablet. The JS9000 4K Series comes with a Smart Remote. We previewed the SUHD TVs at CES 2015, and they have the best picture on an LED TV we have seen from Samsung. The UN65JS9000 Curved 4K TV has excellent reviews and is a not only a SmartReview Top Pick, but has won our BEST of 2015 Award.
