||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All my HDTV purchases have been SAMSUNG. I can't say anything negative about this Samsung 50" QLED screen. Amazing picture! The Paramount+ app is not installed but you can still get to your account.
I would recommend this to a friendVery good value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good value and very good features. We were not looking for the biggest, best. fanciest TV to replace one that died. This fit our requirements nicely and didn't break the bank! I researched numerous choices before selecting this one.

I would recommend this to a friendLooked Better in the store
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I usually don't go into the store to look at TVs and make a decision on the spot. I usually look at Consumer Reports and then go to the store once i'm decided to confirm that it's a good tv. This time I want to the store and bought this tv on the spot. It was a mistake. My only problem is not that the video quality is not great, but that even on sale, this is a very over priced tv. You can get a decent brand with the same specs for a fraction of the price. I returned the tv promptly.
