Not bad but ... 20

I have received the UHD Pack as a bonus under the Samsung campaign.

For each of the receives is also within the scope of the action for free, it is a nice addition.

Everyone who buys the UHD Pack, will inevitably ask the question, what he has spent 299.00 euros (in words two hundred ninety-nine Euro).

On the one hand I find it personally not very innovative offer UHD material on the German market with mainly English setting.

On the other hand I have not really got the impression that at the 5 feature films in German setting a major difference to the Full HD 1080p or 1080i can be observed versions in direct comparison to nunmehrigen UHD version.

It is further noticeable that the color space represented by decoding only with 4: 2: 0 is output instead of 4: 2: 2 or 4: 4: 2 or even 4: 4:. 4

The extended color space is supposed to represent at 4K material in addition to the 4 times HD resolution and a significantly better color rendering, which should be on the performance of the human eye very close. So at least my previous information.

The documentaries are certainly real 4K material in the movies, I'm not so sure whether these were not merely extrapolated and were then compressed in the new resolution with the H265 codec while maintaining the previously extrapolated resolution.

Conclusion of mine:

Although new technology at the beginning is a bit more expensive, 299.00 Euro are relative price / performance is not adequate. Maximum 199,00 Euro would be fine if it is assumed that about 40 euros go to the hard drive and 159.00 for the films and documentaries, especially since the films are not really brand new title but rather already old ham are, for example, Forrest Gump.

Those who have received the pack as a bonus for Lau, can certainly enjoy it.

Samsung has clearly here a little catching up to where it should be noted that Samsung is currently the only producer that offers what ever native 4K material and not only 4K Mastered Blu Rays.

For the future I am hoping at last a clear standard for future media, which can effect the amount of data a real UHD recording with extended color spaces.

The films have here at a maturity of just over 2 hours of "only" 38 GB. Therefore, I doubt with regard to the films of real UHD with all advertised features.
