Xiaomi Mi 5s review: Hardware overview
Again the same advice applies. Only try watching this from a distance! Students don’t buy a 46″ television for a one-room house, which some call home for lack of better. Overall I was disappointed by the SD picture quality but it wasn’t the Samsung C8700’s fault. It’s just very hard to display DVDs crisp on a panel of this size.
It’s watchable from a distance but don’t get too close. My second test was one for the future. Every thing we watch is converted to HD. This higher standard equals more pixels and thus a better video quality. In fact we have so much faith in this technology that we’re even converting old classics like Star Wars episode 4-6 and the Shining to the platform.

Remember though that a camera with ¼ the amount of pixels shot those movies. Which means that the extra dots need to appear from thin air – not possible. So I only tested HD movies filmed after 2007, modern movies. HD I started with Leap year.
Choosing Rapid Programs For mobile phones - Xiaomi Mi 5s review: Hardware overview
This 2010 romantic comedy was the perfect candidate because of the beautiful scenery of Ireland. And boy was it beautiful. The Samsung C8700’s local dimming system does a great job in generating impressive black levels.
Explaining Necessary Aspects Of smartphone - Xiaomi Mi 5s review: Hardware overview
Black is really black on this television! Motion was also good as the scenery flashed by. It was really smooth. Some don’t like this but I do. Leap year ended in a completely dark room. During the movie I couldn’t notice that the television was adjusting its brightness dynamically and to be honest during the end I found the screen sometimes too bright.
Not sure if the eco system really adjusted the LEDs accordingly. Secondly I watched Avatar. This fast pace movie was perfect because it can really stress the Samsung and show any imperfections.
Let me be honest there weren’t many for me but could be for some. It all rests on the motion. It’s buttery smooth and almost looks unreal because of it. Some will not like this but no matter the setting I used I couldn’t get rid of it completely. I also noticed artifacts around some of the objects, but it wasn’t a big deal as it only happened once.
And I wouldn’t have seen it if I was paying attention to the movie. Color reproductions and black levels were again spot-on. Although I think that most full LED local dimming sets could do better, but that’s only noticeable in a direct comparison environment. And it’s not like your neighbor will buy one and install it right next to yours for showing.
If someone experienced this please contact me and I’ll remove that statement. Blu-rays or legally owned 1080p content are amazing on this set and the real reason why someone would own a television of this caliber in the first place. Color reproduction is excellent and black-levels are spot on. Motion isn’t always handled perfectly. I saw some artifacts and some people will find it unnatural no matter the settings.
If you’re one of those people than this can be your deal breaker! Gaming Gaming. We all do it, some admit it but few feel proud of it. I connected my PS3 to the Samsung C8700 to test gaming.
Again I don’t have the high-end stuff to measure input lag, this review represents what the naked eye sees. First up was Need for Speed Shift. This EA title was released in 2009 and marked a change for the series. Moving more towards the semi-simulation racer with great graphics and spectacular crashes.
The Samsung C8700 held itself well during the tests. The color reproduction was good and the image remained crystal sharp despite only showing 1280×720 pixels. I did notice some input lag compared to my reference display, a 2ms TNT panel.
But for me as a casual gamer I don’t see this as a big issue. LittleBigPlanet was tested next and the Samsung C8700 nailed it. Input lag was even less of an issue thanks to the slower paced game. The game showed better depth thanks to the sharpness and the size of the display. Further more I saw nothing unusual.
