BEST TV EVER!!!
Samsung 8 Series, 55". It's Amazingly come a long way in a short time. See my photos- The most clear picture, equipped with every TV App needed, Netflix, Apple, 'Altice' is regular cable box, Amazon Prime, Sports, News, Hulu, you name it, it's available. Photos show Menu options, size/width, so thin, lightweight, and the simple Remote, I bought two that hang above Fireplace. I'd have gone bigger, except my TV room off kitchen is small. Other in M. Bedroom over fireplace with extender bracket. Highly recommend Geek Squad to install/deliver, whether on a stand or bracket. So efficient, ease of both delivery, setup & haul away. Their knowledge to set up all from WiFi, no longer needed Apple Box, Netflix, Samsung TV. I got a team, their names are Rickson Francis & Marlon. I'm going to request them for anything going forward. Their dedicated to their work, answered all questions, do a follow up, refuse tip, took away all needed & moved older one's, clean up beautifully. I've had Samsung for 25+ years, and amazed how thin, light, and their like a computer, DVD, extra & all channels, and all free. You Tube, Amazon Prime video. I find new things every day. Best Buy has best prices. If you have room to go bigger, than Go for it ~ Good Luck!

A Decent Upgrade From a Samsung non-Smart TV.
I recently purchased a Samsung 55" 8 Series for my church. Because of circumstances beyond our control, the TV has received little usage, but, here are some observations gleaned from the little time I've spent with it. The TV arrived fairly well boxed up. The shipping box wasn't overly heavy, just a bit bulky for a single person to work with. The TV slid out of the box without too much effort. This unit is mounted on a third party stand, so, the included feet were not needed. Now, this TV replaced a Samsung UN39FH5000FXZA. Interestingly enough, the hardware used to mount the old TV to the stand was not, directly, compatible with the new TV. The bolts were too short when used in conjunction with the required spacers. I had to cut the spacers slightly in order for the provided bolts to secure the TV to the mount. With that out of the way, it was time to program the TV. The TV guides you through the setup process. While largely uneventful, I did run into a problem where the TV would not connect to my WIFI router. I had to abort the setup process and start from the beginning. On the second pass, the TV was able to connect to either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency. I opted to use 2.4GHz as I reserve 5GHz strictly for computer equipment. In addition to the initial setup, the TV's OS was updated. That process took a while to complete due to the lack of high speed Internet service available to the church building. Upon completion, I popped a DVD into the attached Samsung player. The results looked quite good. A bonus is that the included remote will control both the TV and player. I will say that the main menu looks much different than the one presented by the old TV. I took me a while to get comfortable with the new layout. I'll have to guide others through the menu once we are able to return to the building. All in all, based on the minimal amount of time that I have been able to use this TV, I will say that it is a decent device. The fact that it was on sale when I purchased it makes it even nicer, and, a good upgrade from the old Samsung TV.

Awesome TV
Very pleased with purchase. Great TV for the price. Excellent picture and easy to set up. Bixby voice remote works very well. Uploading apps were quick and easy. Controlling apps with remote is easy. Simple online order process with Best Buy. They delivered an hour early, which was nice.

Excellent TV for so many reasons to list here!
Excellent TV for price. Set up is a snap, the tutorial takes you through it. The sound quality is good for the price range. Sound is very loud and clear.. Becomes a bit distorted for action movies, but that's what sound bars are for. I don't watch 4K movies and only have 100mbs internet speed, however the picture is impressive. Fine tuning the grey scale, green to red, ratio is very easy. Set up is a snap. Plug in your BLU Ray player oer ROKU and the TV recognizes them and labels them for you per HDMI port. Feet simply twist and click and don't wable. If you do need customer support for any reason, just call and they are there to help. 4.5 stars

Samsung Crystal UHD
Was a little hesitant at first now knowing much about the Samsung Crystal UHD Smart Tizen TV, I was unsure about the Tizen part, but WOW this processor is fantastic and the Crystal Picture is fantastic even for me using the Wireless connection for streaming Holy Cow this thing is fantastic for the money. It's not an OLED but if money is an issue, this is a must if it is in your budget. Truly satisfied with this TV the Narrow boarder bezel around the screen is really present. As far as the remote, goes, there is a little bit of getting use to but it is way nicer that others in this Class, Glare can be an issue if this it to be positioned in a really bright environment, but then again what TV isn't? Would I put this TV up against Sony, or LG in a heartbeat, once again for this price point it is spot on.
