Customers regard the 43" Class LED LJ550M Series 1080p Smart HDTV as a great purchase due to its exceptional picture quality and user-friendly setup process. Many customers are pleased with the price and the inclusion of smart TV functionality. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the remote control's design, the slowness of certain apps, and the limited volume of the speakers.
I had a question whether this TV would have an app to use Amazon Prime. The store personnel looked it up on line in the LG App store and confirmed it would. However, had they taken out the actual remote it would have been a lot quicker to tell me . The remote actually has a button designated to Netflix and a button designated to Amazon Prime. I wanted a smart TV to put in a room without having to hook up (and pay more) for my DirecTV.. I only wanted it for Netflix, Amazon Prime and other streaming apps, and USB for shows I have downloaded. So this is actually the perfect TV for this. I didn't go with 4K simply because I am not paying for 4K from the services I use and don't see the need to do so at this time (not enough content to make it practical at this time) and the room it is in wouldn't be the first room for me to jump up to 4K. For the price it was on sale for yesterday ($299) this TV is awesome. Again this isn't for our main viewing room / living room but for a bedroom... had it been one of our main TV's I would have gone a lot bigger screen. Haven't had any complaints with any LG we owned in the past so went with LG this time as well. Note main reasons for this model - Price, WiFi, Netflix, Amazon Prime, 1080p and size for room. If we were using it for gaming I would have wanted a better refresh rate... but very happy with it for these reasons!

My 14 year old had been asking for a tv for her room the last couple of years. Finally made the decision to get her one for her birthday coming up. Outside of initially being sold the non smart version of this 43 inch tv by the salesperson at the apple valley location which was actually the same price and they exchanged the following day. It was perfect, even better than anticipated. I had considered a Samsung comparible model as I already have a couple of them in the house, a 55 and 65 inch. Comparing it to the Samsung in the store the picture was a bit crisper so I decided to give try and the price was right. Grabbed a wall mount and had it on the wall in an hour after deciding I was going to hanging it, could not have went up more easily.

Well while standing in line, I asked a younger lady if it was possible to install these new Smart TVs without assistance. She replied yes, if you just follow the prompts. This LG Smart TV is intuitive, and my husband and I were able to hook it up; get it going and I love it. The picture is bright and all the features are so cool; I now access my Amazon.Prime Video/Movies on my TV.
