UHD stands for Ultra High Definition or 4K TV. A regular HD TV has 2 million pixels spread across the screen, regardless of the size. A UHD/4K TV offers 8 million pixels on those same screens.
This fancy-sounding nomenclature is largely just marketing, though the TU8000 does tout a "Crystal" 4K image processor. For most consumers, the simple version of the story here is that Samsung's Crystal UHD TVs are basically QLEDs minus the quantum dots. In other words, if you're looking at buying one, you're looking at buying a fairly standard 4K TV. The design and pricing here reflects that.
