Samsung’s UE55U7000FK sits in the brand’s entry level 4K smart TV line up, pitched against similarly priced 55 inch sets from LG and Hisense. It focuses on the essentials: a big screen, 4K resolution and HDR support, with Samsung’s Crystal 4K processor handling upscaling so HD telly and older streaming content look sharper and cleaner on a 55 inch panel.

Who is this TV for?

If you mainly watch Freeview, catch up apps and the big streaming services, this makes sense as a living room all rounder. HDR can add extra punch to compatible films and series, but expectations should be realistic at this price point. Samsung’s smart platform is generally well supported for apps, and the 55 inch size suits mid sized rooms where you want a more cinematic feel without jumping to premium models.

  • 55 inch 4K UHD screen, plenty of detail for sport and box sets
  • Crystal 4K processor, improves lower resolution sources through upscaling
  • HDR support, better contrast and colour on compatible content
