43" Samsung
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this item for our four season porch, and it is exactly what we needed and wanted. It is the perfect size and the picture is excellent. The room is surrounded by natural light so we were concerned about picture quality. Couldn't be better.

Samsung TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The tv has excellent color. It is very light weight and the directions to set it up were very simple, which is good because I didn’t think $200 to pull the tv out of the box was worth it. Other than that Best Buy’s has been good to me.

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.

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.

Samsung - 43” Class Q8F Series QLED
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this TV; mid-range in size, it's perfect for my office, and the resolution is fantastic. The picture is very sharp, colors are sharp as well. The bevel is less than an inch, so it almost appears the picture takes up the entire TV footprint. My home office isn't that large, and the sound fills the room at 20% or less volume. Good speakers; everything sounds right to me. I've mounted this TV on the wall, so will not comment on the legs.
