      Hi KarenJ,

      We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear your remote isn’t controlling your external device. Please try the following:

      1. Check the Remote’s Batteries: If you haven’t already, try replacing the batteries with new ones and confirm they’re inserted correctly.
      2. Check IR Functionality: Use your phone’s camera to look for a flashing light at the front of the remote when pressing a button. If you see it, the IR signal is working.
      3. Enable Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC): If the connected device supports HDMI-CEC, the TV remote can control it. To enable Anynet+: Settings > All Settings > General & Privacy > External Device Manager > Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) = On
      4. Set Up Universal Remote (if needed): If your external device doesn’t support HDMI-CEC, go to: Home > left directional key > Connected Devices > Universal Remote Setup, and follow the on-screen instructions.

      If none of the above resolves your issue, feel free to call Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM – 12AM EST, 7 days a week. Our LiveChat agents are also available by clicking the ‘Support’ link on our website.

    What kind of idiot pastes a sticker ON THE TV SCREEN that is impossible to remove???

      Hi TickedOff,

      Thank you for sharing your experience, and we're sorry for any confusion surrounding the screen on your Samsung TV. We understand it may look like the barcode sticker is applied directly to the display, but it’s actually attached to a protective film covering the screen.

      When a screen film is included, it’s usually marked with an orange pull tab in one of the corners, along with a small illustration showing how to remove it safely. In some cases, the film may not have a tab - but you’ll still find a barcode sticker applied to it.

      To remove the film, place a piece of tape on one corner, press firmly, and gently lift. The protective layer should begin to peel away with the sticker still attached.

      We hope this clears things up! If you need more help, please don’t hesitate to reach out - Samsung Support is here for you at 1-800-SAMSUNG (8AM – 12AM EST, 7 days a week) or via LiveChat at the ‘Support’ link on our website.

      Hi JenniferP,

      Thank you for purchasing Samsung’s U8000F TV and for sharing your feedback on the sound quality. To ensure you’re experiencing the best possible audio, we first recommend checking that your TV is running the latest firmware. To do this, navigate to: Home > left directional key > Settings > Support > Software Update.

      If the sound still doesn’t meet your expectations, there are a few settings you can try adjusting:
      Go to: Settings > All Settings > Sound > Sound Mode
      • Standard: Balanced sound without emphasis on any one range
      • Optimized: Enhanced effects and spacious sound
      • Amplify: Boosts mid and high tones to make dialogue clearer

      You can also explore Expert Settings to fine-tune options such as Balance, Equalizer, Auto Volume, and more to match your personal preferences.

      For further help adjusting your sound settings or finding the right soundbar for your space, feel free to reach Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (8AM – 12AM EST, 7 days a week) or visit the Support link on our website for:

    Excellent picture, easy setup and worth the money. The remote is fine just takes a little while to get used to. There's a tutorial in the settings on how to use the remote if you're having issues. TV sound is also top notch. Love this TV, great deal and totally worth it. I got the 50 inch which is perfect for my bedroom. Hope this helps people.

    My first smart tv and it's been great! I purchased it during cyber Monday and got a great deal on the 50-inch. I also got excellent customer service at Best Buy on Harrison, SF, when the first box I got, was a damaged tv. The staff member who helped me exchange it did an amazing job, I hope she gets a much deserved raise!
