Amazing picture, good value
I did some online research and settled on a 55" Q60 TV to replace a 15-year-old 42" Panasonic plasma TV that got fried during a recent lightning storm. When I came into the BestBuy store to look it over, I decided instead to move up to the Q70 TV. We're had it for 24 hours (bought 9/12/2020) and it seems to be a fantastic upgrade. The picture is amazing when streaming 4K and still excellent with the HD satellite feed. Acoustics are much better (easier to hear) than our old TV and install was easy since I removed the brackets from my old TV and bolted them onto the new one. One issue: the guide says to use 39-41mm M8 bolts, but that length engages MAYBE 1-2 threads. I rolled over to Home Depot and bought M8x1.25 x 45mm socket head cap screws (no Philips available in that size/length) and with a lock washer, they engage fully and secure the TV to the mounts. Samsung should reevaluate their literature for this. Functionally, the TV automatically detected our wi-fi as well as the DirecTV feed and self-configured so that the TV remote is the only one needed. Using the SmartThings app, we were able to configure and register the TV in a few quick steps. The remote is sleek, but without a keypad, it takes longer / more steps to manually select a different channel. I just reprogrammed the DirecTV remote to the new TV and all is well - one remote to rule them all. Overall, we are very happy with this purchase even though it's just the honeymoon phase. I'll update should anything interesting occur. For the on-sale $899 price, I think this TV is a good bargain, considering the features and picture quality vs. competitors. It was an easy choice and so far, it's a great buy.

Great tv for gaming entry level
I bought this tv for my husband cause he got the PlayStation 5 as a gift. I read up on all the reviews on several sites before purchasing. I am not all knowledgeable about the different specs and what it does or how it performs. After learning and being better educated, I purchased this tv. We both are beyond impressed at the quality, clarity and depth of what this tv delivers. My husband is impressed with the game mode that adapts to the new games and the graphics that makes the gaming experience better. I am sure that a OLED tv would outshine this model by way far, but if you’re in the market for a great tv, good gaming experience, no a pocket breaker, then this is the tv for you.

Very sharp TV 4K but!
First off this is my 2 4K tv so I kinda know whats good. First thing to say is you get what you pay for!!! My last one was $450 so this tv for $899 is good. At this time some tvs can run up to $3000 and there up more for 8K. This is a step up from led tvs of past. + they just keep adding coll stuff like minor link to cast Laptops or phones to it. I have a few thing I use with the tv and the 4 HDMI inputs are good. Most tvs only got 2 or 3. I use a cable box 1080, a Apple tv 4K, and Sony UHD 4K Player. No I dont use tv for gameing but you can it had 2.1 HDMI input for that too. The apps are cool and it took about 5 min to learn the use software to nav. the apps and inputs. I even say if do not have a sound bar or souround sound the tv sound work good. I would give 5 stars but I do NOT like the dimming when watch movies or shows. It makes dark even darker the jumps bright again. Dark stuff is hard to see and no way to stop it!!! I with samsung would fix that!!!! All in all the tv is tops for money.

Great TV!
I own last years model of this same tv. The picture and sound quality are terrific! On my old set I’ve got SONOS connected, so that sound quality is very, very good! Set up is a piece of cake, the One Remote connection has been made easier. There are tons of apps and features on this set. I really enjoy these purchases!!!

Awesome picture - just a couple of minor issues.
I give it 5 stars for picture quality, controls, apps and connectivity. The only reason for the slight downgrade is the sound quality. I’d hoped for more. If I could have found a way to easily connect a wireless subwoofer (no sound bar) that would have grabbed that 5th star. Alas, no such thing available. So I broke down and bought a NEW sound bar. See, I replaced a 10 year old 40 inch Samsung (that still works great but didn’t have smart features - used Apple TV with it), and a 7 year old Samsung sound bar/subwoofer. And I moved it from a built in, over the fireplace location to a wall. The idea of not having to use a sound bar appealed to me. But, the TV forced me into using a sound bar, and I wanted a newer one that would power on and off automatically. But this is about the TV. The picture is breathtaking. Almost 3D. Deep blacks and amazing contrast. It struggles sometimes with the audio when casting from my iPhone or iPad, and sometimes it won’t show the screen, but I can live with that. I can always hook my old Apple TV up to it - after all, it has 4 hdmi inputs. So it’s a great TV. Not cheap, but far from the most expensive.
