I would recommend this to a friendWifi issues
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall it’s a decent tv but it does have a major issue with wifi. I’ve tried resetting the settings multiple times but it doesn’t help. Only fix I’ve been able to find is to press and hold the power button to reboot the tv and it’ll join the network. This is the only tv that has this issue. My other 3 year old Samsung doesn’t have this problem. I’m hoping it will get fixed with a software update.

Samsung Series 8 50" TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I knew the TV was awesome, as I already have the 75inch version! Finding it was a breeze and dealing with Best Buy in Mckinney TX, was even easier.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat TV for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoy how the remote resembles a lot of the fire stick remote. I haven’t had a chance to explore everything it can do yet.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Picture quality
Would not recommend
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this 50 inch for my bedroom, it has a good picture, but I would have to say that the sound quality is not great. I would highly recommend you buying a sound bar for this TV. If I had a choice I probably would go with a differnt TV. I have to call geek squad and ask about a ring like sound that the tv makes while watching tv.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Samsung

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TVs came on time and we're in perfect condition. Over time we've ordered 12 of the same tvs for our office and none of them have had any issues/flaws.
I would recommend this to a friendWorth it with a catch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well worth the price but if you have lots of windows and lights screen glare/reflections will get in the way.
I would recommend this to a friendNice TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good TV. The only hiccups come with streaming HDR. During panning and quick shots, the TV suffers minor lagging.
I would recommend this to a friendExcellent tv
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What I’m most impressed with on this tv are the deep blacks. They’re so good that sometimes you think the tv has turned off but it’s really just a dark scene.
I would recommend this to a friendSo far so good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hooked my xbox to this tv and man that 4k is impressive. Wonder how much better it would look with that dolby vision thing, but anywho, this tv does the job!
