Our take on the Samsung UN75RU8000/FXZA 75-Inch Premium Uhd 4K TV Ru8000 (2019)
The Samsung RU8000 is a 2019 4K LED TV in Samsung's Premium UHD line, sitting below the QLED models. Its 75-inch screen uses a 120Hz native panel with Motion Rate 240 processing, which makes it a better fit for sports and console gaming than Samsung's cheaper 60Hz sets. It supports HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG but has no Dolby Vision, and its edge-lit backlight cannot match the local dimming and brightness of QLED rivals. Owners like the picture and the low input lag; the common complaints are average black levels, narrow viewing angles and thin sound.
- Native 120Hz panel with strong motion handling
- Low input lag and a dedicated Game Mode
- Tizen smart hub with a wide app selection
- HDR10+ support and solid 4K upscaling
- Slim, near-borderless design
- Edge-lit backlight with no local dimming, so blacks look gray in dark scenes
- Contrast and viewing angles fall short of QLED sets
- No Dolby Vision
- Built-in speakers are thin, so a soundbar helps
- Only three HDMI ports for a set this size

Questions and answers
- Is the RU8000 good for gaming?
- Yes. It has a native 120Hz panel and a Game Mode with low input lag, which suits consoles well. It does not have HDMI 2.1 or variable refresh rate.
- Does the RU8000 support Dolby Vision?
- No. It handles HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG, but not Dolby Vision.
- How does it compare with Samsung's QLED TVs?
- QLED models add full-array local dimming and much higher brightness, so they produce deeper blacks and better HDR. The RU8000 costs less and still offers 120Hz motion.
- Is the 75-inch screen too big for a normal room?
- It suits rooms where viewers sit roughly 9 to 12 feet away. Closer than that, the size can feel overwhelming and picture flaws are easier to see.
- Do I need a soundbar?
- Most owners find the built-in speakers thin, so a soundbar or sound system improves the experience noticeably.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, its stand, a remote and the power cable. Mounting hardware for a wall bracket is not included.
