Samsung 43” QLED 4K UHD TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV fits great in an 12’ X 12’ sized room. I was concerned that maybe I should’ve bought the 50” but it has never been an issue. Older movies look great and newer movies are clear and sharp. I don’t use the AI assistant but the remote takes very little time to learn w/o having to search for buttons. The audio is decent but I hope to get a sound bar in the future. From WiFi streaming to DVD’s this TV is a great choice.
I would recommend this to a friend A New Improvement!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely a huge upgrade from my 2015 Led version i had previously. Vivid clarity and new features. Multi-view is awesome! Gaming and watching movies is a new experience. I love to set YouTube screen savers to match my lighting in the background when relaxing.

Picture and sound connectivity are an upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is for Samsung 43" Q8F Series QLED TV. Very good picture, an improvement over my older Samsung. Also, my older Samsung would drop the feed from my Polk audio sound bar a couple of times per week, and it would take about 5 minutes to change the sound back from the TV speakers to the sound bar. That is no longer happening with the new Samsung TV. One deficiency for those who have YouTube TV. I have not been able to find that streaming service in the optional apps that come with the TV. So, I still need my Roku until I figure that out or Samsung adds that service in an update. Since this doesn't affect everyone, I still think it is a 5-star TV. Minor annoyance, I still need to adjust settings, so it doesn't start up in the stupid Samsung TV mode and take about 5-10 seconds for it to auto flip to the HDMI input that brings the signal from my Roku controller.

Great tv! Very clear picture quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great tv for the price! Previously had a 2020 crystal UHD Samsung tv that had a horrible backlight issue and didn’t display the color black very well on the tv. The UI also lagged. This tv is a huge improvement.
I would recommend this to a friend Excellent picture, weird user interface.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a nice tv with excellent upscaling of all video. Only problem I have is that there are numerous ways to access apps and menus, and each way gives different results with limited features depending on how you access it - very inconvenient, especially when using antenna channels. You must access via the Home Screen live app. If you access via the “live” tab or side bar, you don’t see all your channels unless you first use the home live app! Also the “Favorites” list is pretty worthless. It stores the channels randomly not in order, and no way to change it. Makes locating one of your favorites difficult.

Perfect TV for Us!

It is the first Smart TV we have had and it took a little bit to learn how to use it, but it was fairly easy to do. I would definitely recommend this TV to anyone who is looking for an affordable high quality TV.

Very good TV @ a Great Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.5 years ago a 4K TV under $500 would suffer from weak sound, low contrast picture and slow processors. This TV is great with wonderful picture, booming sound and super quick processing. Using Xbox Game Pass allows you to get your game on when not relaxing watch TV or other media. Awesome TV
