and most end up being really useful, therefore, the importance of this article, since we are going to delve a little more into its efficiency to know if it is really worth buying the\u00a0Samsung UE50AU9005KXXC\u00a0, we say this because Despite being a mid-range, it maintains a somewhat high cost exceeding 700 euros.<\/p>\n<h2>Exterior design of the Samsung AU9005<\/h2>\n<p><img

UE50AU9005 design\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-76784\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-76784\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spectacular appearance that will look good in almost any environment<\/p>\n<p>If something stands out from the\u00a0Samsung 50AU9005\u00a0is that it presents a striking design in every way, to begin with, we have that its size is 50 inches, therefore, its placement is a little easier both in medium and large rooms.\u00a0It has a black color that generates a greater presence\u00a0, which can be seen from different angles.<\/p>\n<p>However, its greatest power is found in the front that implements totally thin frames, and that generates an elegance very little seen in the mid-range.\u00a0In addition,\u00a0this is great to be able to perceive a greater space on the screen\u00a0, which is important so that the content we are watching does not present any interference.<\/p>\n<p>The center stand is a bit odd, although it has a modern twist that implements well with the rest of the aesthetic.\u00a0This offers us good stability on almost any surface.\u00a0The back is almost non-existent in thickness which gives it a totally flat look\u00a0.\u00a0The only bad thing is that the building materials feel weak.<\/p>\n<h3>Connectivity<\/h3>\n<p>A connectivity that in principle is very simple, since not many connectors are added, although this gives us a cleaner connector box.\u00a0Here we highlight three\u00a0HDMI\u00a0inputs\u00a0ideal for using external devices such as laptops, consoles and players.\u00a0Two\u00a0USB 2.0\u00a0that as main benefit offer the possibility of recording directly from the television, yes, for its version the transfer speed is somewhat slow,\u00a0especially for large files\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>Other physical connections that we have are its\u00a0Ethernet\u00a0port\u00a0that works to connect us to the internet directly from the modem, however, this forces us to place the TV as close as possible to the Router.\u00a0We have an RF input to be able to watch digital television with the help of the available tuners.\u00a0Regarding wireless, the presence of\u00a0Wi-Fi stands out\u00a0, likewise, we have\u00a0Bluetooth\u00a0to connect without having to use cables.\u00a0It also has\u00a0DLNA\u00a0.<\/p>\n<h2>Image quality and general functions of the Samsung AU9005<\/h2>\n<p>The image quality of the\u00a0Samsung UE50AU9005\u00a0does not improve much compared to what was seen in previous versions, however,\u00a0with what was offered we will witness some striking scenes for any content\u00a0.\u00a0First of all, it has a 4K resolution that seeks to provide us with better details with the idea of \u200b\u200brealistic images.<\/p>\n<p>There is an\u00a0LED\u00a0panel\u00a0that, as is well known, does not have such a marked power, so the backlighting is regular, therefore, we must take care of the location of the TV and avoid very dark or bright areas.\u00a0The 4K processor tries to optimize any image to achieve an ideal definition,\u00a0improving color\u00a0and\u00a0high dynamic range\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the\u00a0Motion Xcelerator Turbo\u00a0technology\u00a0we will enjoy a much more fluid movement both in movies and video games.\u00a0Also included is support for\u00a0HDR +\u00a0that increases the range of light levels on the TV to achieve a huge spectrum of colors and all the visual details,\u00a0even in those darkest scenes\u00a0.<\/p>\n<h3>Sound<\/h3>\n<p>In this range, everything is not usually positive, and as expected, the audio of the\u00a0Samsung UE50AU9005KXXC\u00a0falls a little short, especially in very demanding content, since in principle we have an acceptable quality.\u00a0This model has two integrated speakers that offer only 20W of power,\u00a0although it includes Q-Symphony\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, some enhancement technologies have been implemented that will be of great help for a much more enjoyable final experience.\u00a0Here we find\u00a0Dolby Digital Plus\u00a0and\u00a0Adaptive Sound\u00a0that try to deliver a more enveloping and clearer sound output that can mainly help dialogues.\u00a0This ends up benefiting positively.<\/p>\n<h2>Samsung 50AU9005 Software Review \/ Smart TV and more<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

well-optimized system that offers us great possibilities for our entertainment<\/p>\n<p>We finish by talking about the benefits that the\u00a0Samsung 50AU9005 has\u00a0by including its own operating system, first of all, we talk about an intuitive platform that offers an interesting optimization and security.\u00a0It has a good catalog of applications that offers good options such as\u00a0Netflix\u00a0,\u00a0Prime Video\u00a0,\u00a0YouTube\u00a0,\u00a0Disney +\u00a0and\u00a0Apple TV\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>It also allows us to control different functions of the TV thanks to the compatibility presented with\u00a0Alexa\u00a0,\u00a0Google Assistant\u00a0and\u00a0Bixby,\u00a0three quite useful assistants to give instructions to the team using only our voice.\u00a0It includes a game mode that reduces Input Lag and delivers a more fluid and precise experience in each game.<\/p>\n<p>Other functions that we cannot ignore are\u00a0Multi ViewDivide\u00a0that allows us to divide the television into multiple screens to be able to enjoy different content at the same time.\u00a0With\u00a0Tap View,\u00a0this model quickly detects the content we are seeing on our smartphone and plays it automatically without any problem.<\/p>\n<h2>Samsung AU9005: Pros and Cons<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>PROS<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Elegant design<\/li>\n<li>Possibility to record
