Great Tv for the price, Laggy menu performance.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great tv however the processor seems to be a little slow. navigating through different menus feels very sluggish and laggy. For the price it has great picture quality and acceptable sound. After a year and a half, the display is losing power intermittently. Every 30 seconds to a minute the screen goes almost completely black, then the sound cuts out and the screen does completely black. After a few seconds everything seems to power back on. It definitely seems to be a hardware issue with getting power or signal to the display panel. I am 7 months out of my warranty so the best Samsung could do for me was to give me a phone number of a local repair shop. Giving 4 stars - Given how laggy the menus are, I would rather buy the same TV without any smart features and pair it with something like a roku or apple tv. I won't rate lower because of the repair issues I'm having. Hopefully this is a unique issue.

Wonderful addition to the house!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a Samsung HDTV user in my house since 2006. In fact, I'm still using the SAME Samsung HDTV in my house today! Purchased this one to create an additional entertainment room in the house and have not been disappointed. Vibrant colors...sound is good (everyone says you need a soundbar for Samsung TVs, but the regular output works fine for me), excellent value! The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the length of time downloading apps and such...but this was my first "smart" TV...so I'm catching up on the curve.

Great buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture is fantastic but the sound is low. I hadn’t planned on buying a sound system but it was necessary however it’s enhanced the experience so much I don’t mind a bit. The one thing and in my opinion it’s a big one is the the little stand legs suck. In the land of earthquakes this is a busted screen waiting to happen.

Great TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have only had this tv for a few months but it has been a good tv so far. The color is great and has very little ghosting. It was easy to set up and I like the smart apps. This replaced an older tv with a higher refresh rate that seemed to ghost a lot. The only reason I haven’t rated it a 5 is due to short time of ownership.

GREAT BUY
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my bedroom TV that was a last minute thought. I'm surprised how much this TV does and the picture has amazing quality. Very well priced and worth more then what I paid. It has an Alexa app which is great for my house because we have Alexa in every room. Then to set up the TV I did everything from my phone which is also Samsung so that made the process easy.

Many features that are not available on other tvs
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this tv! Bought this to go in the game room of my new house. Easy to set up and the picture is terrific. Of course, most tvs now include all the streaming services. Samsung tv also has access to a number of channels that do not require subscriptions. Additionally, I can use my iPhone and Apple Airplay to mirror whatever I have on my phone screen.

Buy this TV!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with this device. It was easy to setup. The onscreen setup walks you through the whole process. The graphics and picture are incredible even when I watch an old TV show. There are built in apps and there are free apps you can download. Plus I can sync with other Samsung devices. This is the fourth Samsung TV and I'm never disappointed.

Great picture
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I always buy Samsung tv's. This is by far the best one yet. The picture quality is AMAZING. Also, I was originally going to purchase the series 7, but for $50 more, I bought the series 8 as you don't need cable wiring or a cable box. Plug it in, connect to your home internet and then to Netflix, Hulu, Xfinity, etc. That's it! I highly recommend this tv.

Nice TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very happy with this TV for my bedroom so far. Great colors and sound - again, this is for my bedroom so there is no peripheral/extraneous equipment hooked to it, and i don't plan on doing anything else to it. Smart TV interface is easy to work and the voice remote responds when required. I'm not a technophile, so this TV is everything I need.

Economical 4K
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One month and the set is working well. Was fairly easy to set up. Third HDMI port hard to use (and find); confusing with optical sound input. Samsung software, advertising still a problem to delete. Overall, very good picture, above average sound (when I am not using Samsung sound bar).

Great Smart TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I'm loving this TV. I've only used it for streaming but the picture pops! Great sound and it was no effort at all to set up in my bedroom. Voice commands work well with my 'raspy' voice. I have an XBox, DVD and I also stream my pictures and video from my DSLR and GoPro. So far not any issues. One day I may turn the live TV but for now I'm happy streaming!

Nice mid-size TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set-up via quick start instructions. TV provided self-guided set-up when powered on the first time. Remote will take some getting used to and will need to review functions of the TV more. Nice picture for this, our 2nd TV in the home. Sticking with our Samsung plasma TV as main viewer.

Love Samsung TVs
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a smart TV for our bedroom. We like to watch TV before going to sleep. I have purchased several Samsung TVs so it was just a matter of what size. It hooks up easy and all the apps to our favorite streaming programs are there. We haven’t used a DVD player in years. We cut the cord in 2016 and with Samsung TVs we don’t miss cable. And can’t beet the price.

Samsung is the way to go.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had this TV for one year and three months. It looks great, works great, and is easy to operate. If I had to change one thing, it would be the remote. It's lackluster. Still, that doesn't detract from the quality of the TV. I wouldn't buy any other brand, if I wanted to stay in this price point.

Excellent picture quality , FIOS setup confusing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My actual rating is 4.5. At the time of purchase I ordered a 43” Series 7 and a 50” Series 8. I had to wait 10 days for the Series 8 because my store was out of stock. The Series 7 was sent to my son out of state. So I don’t have the ability to compare the 2. According to the sale rep the only differences was the 8 had additional USB connection and some gaming enhancements, so I opted for the lower priced Series 7 for him. I’m a senior and I’ve been able to get all my previous TVs setup by just following the instructions. I found the Series 8 to be a challenge when trying to program FIOS with the remote. After trial and error I realized I had to select reset option from the TV’s menu to get all the FIOS HD channels to download. Now I can control both using the TV’s remote. I would have appreciated if the sale rep had demonstrated this at the time of purchase. I love the picture quality The flesh tones are realistic, the sound is good and it’s a good size for the room. You can connect your gaming apps, PC and other devices (not a concern for me). Other than the initial setup challenge, I really like the TV. After I get to compare it to the Series 7 I will determine if it was worth the price difference .

Great upgrade!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great upgrade for me. I had ordered another TV and it was smaller than I had realized. I had no clue that 48" were no longer available. When I got this TV, it fit my stand perfectly and supplied a better picture. I had my last TV for 3 years and needed a new one. My only complaint would be the minimalistic remote. It took a minute to get used to.

Samsung 8-series
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My girlfriend and I love this tv and keep trying new features. Easy to use and provides and excellent picture for use. Smart capabilities of linking streaming accounts is great and it recognizes consoles and plug in devices from its menu. We’ve gotten a lot of use out of the Bluetooth and airplay features and would recommend this product.
