We received it faster than promised. It took a little while to understand a totally new (to us) technology but now it is awesome. The color and sound are hard to beat and someone though we must have paid over $600 for it. After I told him what I paid he said we stole it! We are on an air antenna and the picture quality is much better than the Vizio it replaced.

I bought this after a price drop. I thought it was a decent price at the regular, but, under $300, it was a steal.
It was easy to mount, very light for its size. The hookup was easy. It started right up and found my network easily. It linked quickly to my Amazon account. Once it was mounted, I was watching TV on my Amazon account within 5 minutes.
Finding other apps and downloading them took a little work. Still haven't been able to find all that I want.
The picture is very good; rivals my Samsung 43".
The sound is so-so, but, I afterwards purchased a sound bar (Insignia) which improves the sound. It is in my office; I don't need serious surround sound.
I do wish it would control the power to the Insignia sound bar; it does control the volume.
I have only used it for a couple hours so far, so I cannot give a long-term review, but initial review is: very good. I would say 4.5 stars. I would recommend it, especially at under $300.

This is a good tv and was fairly inexpensive in comparison to models with similar size/specs. The picture quality is great, the bezel is thin and looks like it could be much more expensive. I use and Apple TV 4K and PS4 Pro box so I can't comment on the FireTV part of it. But for my uses it fits the bill perfectly.

This was a deal too good to pass up. I love the picture and the smart tv component. I wish it would connect to my satellite channels first rather than defaulting to the Fire TV home page. But that was more of a nuisance at the beginning and I and my family are used to it now. Works great with my soundbar as well.

We were looking to upgrade our bedroom TV from 43 inch non-smart to a 50 inch smart tv. (I wasn't looking to break the bank because a couple of months ago we upgraded our primary tv to a Samsung QLED Q70.) This TV would be used for watching the news in the morning/night or my wife and I catching the end of a movie upstairs before bed. We are very happy with this tv. It was a great purchase. The picture is amazing. And the sound quality is the best I've heard in a flat screen. I can actually hear some bass in the speakers. If you're looking for a quality second/bedroom tv, this is a great deal!

Love the Fire OS. Simple and quick.
I’m not using any of the inputs, just WiFi. Amazon, Hulu, Netflix, ATT Now, etc. all built in. Remote has Netflix and Hulu button. Quick OS, no lag like my previous Fire stick. Great picture and better price.

TV works great. It has a great picture and all the stuff needed for a smart tv. It has a voice remote which is nice. It was fairly light and easy to mount on the wall with one person.
I wish it had apps for xfinity stream or peacock, but thats really no fault to the tv.

Great smart tv picture for the money. My only complaint is adding apps, the internal memory is very small so you may be able to add 1 or 2 apps but after that you will have to add a external thumb drive to one of the usb’s in back of tv to add memory.

Works really well in my sons bedroom for his gaming. He usually uses a headset, but the sound is great when watching a movie on it also. Great apps available and we were able to sign in to the apps we already had subscriptions for very quickly.

No problems whatsoever. Prior to the purchase I watched the videos attached to the product. Although the size dictates a 2 person lift of this model, the plastic bag was sturdy enough for just myself to pick-up. In the bag I layed it on the carpet assembled the legs. Left the plastic & styrofoam & cardboard on as I lifted into it's place. Just FYI to those who are maybe in the same situation "you can do it." Very happy with this model & especially the price. Got the 5 yr. Geek Squad protection. If you have a seperate sound system, I have a "Bose", remember that you will need to purchase an "Audio Visual" cable to make it all work. It was all so easy getting it delivered in these crazy times in which we live now. Of particular notice is a Service Representative named "Angel" & she lived up to her name so Thank You Angel.

I scored this tv for less than 300 bucks! Great picture quality, sound and fire tv capabilities for under 300 dollars you really cannot beat the price! Holds up just as well as my more expensive Vizio tv that I paid double for.

For the price, this is an excellent smart tv. Runs Amazon Fire, not the best picture quality, but it's good. My parents love it because it's easy to use. Can't beat it for the price!

Overall good TV for the money.
The Amazon fire interface is kinda buggy for me
Sometimes navigation of the apps / shows just gets stuck and quits working. Hopefully updates can fix it.

I have only had the set for a couple of weeks so I can't speak to durability but so far it has performed well. The picture is excellent, sound is average, weight is good. I bought the Fire TV model to use with, but not specifically for, my RING security cameras.
In that regard, it is "clunky". Half the time the cameras will not connect with the TV, when it does the picture has a dark edge to make Mic use direction appear better but it interferes with the image. To be fair, the issues with the RING cameras is more likely a software (Alexa Skills) problem and not the TV. For use of watching movies and such, I would give it 5 stars (so far).

I had this same tv in a 32” and I wanted to upgrade to something bigger so I bought this one. I love it and it’s so easy to use and navigate. Also the Alexa feature is cool.
