Compatible Fixed Wall Mount
If you are looking for a simple fixed wall mount without any additional features, than one of the best option is the Echogear Low Profile Fixed TV Wall Mount.
The product can be adjusted to fit Vesa patterns of 200 mm x 200 mm (for the 43″, 50″ and 55″ TU8000), 400 mm x 300 mm (65″), 400 mm x 400 mm (75″) and 600 mm x 400 mm (85″). It has a weight limit of up to 150 pounds, so it should be sturdy enough to comfortably hold even the 85-inch Samsung TU8000 Crystal 4K UHD Smart TV.
The television will protrude just 2.5 inches from the wall with the ECHOGEAR mount. It also comes with a drill template so that you can easily install to the wall of your choice. If you somehow did not level the mount correctly (and thus, causing you TU8000 to look crooked and uneven), you can easily adjust the angle without having to re-mount.
The Low Profile Fixed TV Wall Mount is compatible with steel studs, wood studs and concrete. It will fit the studs that have spacing of 16 inches or 26 inches. If you are interested, you can purchase the product with the following link on Amazon:
