The Best Curved TVs

Samsung's RU7300 simulates an immersive, nearly panoramic viewing experience. 4K resolution paired with PurColor technology offers picture booming with every color imaginable. This Samsung color technology exceeds the color opportunities of an average HDTV by a landslide.

Plus, the Auto Depth Enhancer feature creates the illusion of greater depth. This curved TV provides viewers with high-quality picture, dazzling colors, sharp contrast, and straightforward navigation.

Thanks to an on-screen universal guide, you can find your favorite content easily. The TV is compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, but the remote doesn't have the same smart features. In fact, RU7300's remote might disappoint viewers that expect all their technology to be in constant synchronization with one other.

If you can get past the somewhat retro remote, this curved TV is totally worth it.

To help guide your decision making process, we broke down some key features to take note of as well as some prep work you might want to do before bringing your gorgeous curved TV home.

PurColor

4K resolution enhances color and contrast quality all on its lonesome. PurColor technology is an added benefit tacked on to some Samsung TVs. PurColor technology focuses on primary and secondary colors, creating a wider spectrum of shades.

Auto Depth Enhancer

Auto Depth Enhancer is unique to curved TVs. In the simplest terms, this feature automatically adjusts contrast to create the illusion of a greater sense of depth. This facilitates more detail and authenticity in the world you're watching.

Installation

Since curved TVs are so unique, there are a couple things you'll want to keep in mind before moving forward with a purchase. To enjoy your curved TV in all its panoramic glory, you might need to do some prep work ahead of time.

For example, lighting can be tricky with curved TVs. If you have a direct light source that faces the TV, its reflection is more likely to disturb your viewing experience even more so than a flat screen, because the curved screen will take that reflection and stretch it out further. This can be hugely problematic depending on the space you put your TV in and your usual viewing times.

If you're planning on installing this TV in a space with tons of natural light, you might want to consider black-out curtains. Plus, the darker the space, the more you'll feel like you're actually in a movie theater instead of at home!

Angles are everything with curved TVs. If you're sitting at an odd angle watching a flat screen TV, you might notice strange, fun house-like distortions. Unfortunately, the same can be true for curved screens. Depending on the curvature of the TV -- some models vary in this regard -- if you're at a sharp enough angle, you might miss a chunk of the screen altogether. These TVs perform best when viewers are seated opposite the center of the screen at eye level. For solo viewers or a few people clustered on the same couch, this is no problem at all. But, if you're buying this TV for your family or huge viewing parties, you might run into trouble with a curved TV.
