    We upgraded from a Samsung 6 series and are very impressed!! The picture is very crisp and gaming looks a smoother than our previous TV. We also had our TV mounted by Geek Squad, everything worked out perfectly!

    I bought the 65” for my living room and feel in love with the picture so much that I bought this one for my bedroom. The colors are so vibrant and the details in the picture are incredible! Totally worth it!

    Out of the box the picture was disappointing but after tweaking picture settings and turning off the anti blur it was great. Smart functions work well. Watch YouTube tv on it and seems to stream as fast as my Roku.

    We bought two of these tv’s- one for our bar area and one for the theatre room. Sports games look awesome in the bar and Grandkids love the second one for gaming- very fast response time. Great purchases!

    I am learning to use the features. As a senior citizen, not everything’s intuitive. Picture is excellent. Audio is also quite good. I have surrond sound in addition, but I only use it for movies

    My family loves this new TV! The colors are super sharp and bright where they should be and very dark blacks and shadows. The addition of the sound bar and woofer just adds to the theater feel.

    I have the 65" in my living room and this 55" goes perfect in the bed room. HULU requires a later date TV to operate HULU LIVE. I had to upgrade my TV in the bed room so that I can cut the cord.I did.

    I bought the TV during the labor day sale. Great price for a TV that looks awesome and does everything I was looking for in a TV. Gaming looks fantastic and there is no lag that I have noticed at all.

    Our new favorite brand. We used to spend so much more on Sony, but the sound and picture quality on this Samsung is even better. Great value.

    We bought this tv on sale. We went to get another tv but as we looked around, this one stood out for the price. It cost a little more but I'm happy with the purchase. $549 on sale was a good deal!

    Poor choice for my Xbox One X

    I have an Xbox One S, an Xbox One X and a PS4 that is not the ps4pro. Colors do not look that well and kind of blend together where there are spots of purple blotches in the blacks. This television was supposed to be applauded for its black levels and hanging rated for its brightness. When I watch the Star Wars movies on Blu-ray through my Xbox One X it was very impressive except some of those blacks were two blacks wearing entire robe on one of the Jedi looked all black instead of the color it actually was with some Shadows so I understand what they meant about the brightness not pumping as it should. I use the calibration settings from the PS4 which only produces 1080p and it looked really good! I used the calibration settings on the Xbox One S and also the Xbox One X and could not fix the colors. I went through all the settings, tweaked as I should and even went online to check calibration settings. Some games looked okay but other games did not both of my Xbox consoles. I switched at HDMI cables, and found that nothing actually helped. I even gave this almost two weeks. My room is not super dark but it is not super bright either. An average daylight room. Reviews said that this model of television had poor viewing angles. That didn't bother me much as I would be in the middle anyway. But I kid you not, if I walk past it just a little bit the color of the TV does change. Even if I leaned at an angle to the left two lounge or to the right two lounge the picture does start to degrade. I returned to Q70 are 49 inch televisions to Amazon because of dirty screen effect and banding issues. This model rated very well for not having either since it was not a television that offered full array. So I understood that some of that pop was not going to be there and was pleasantly surprised that I saw no banding or that dirty screen effect. I thought the sound was good in the television but I also have a Yamaha Soundbar that I rarely use. So I was pleased either way. I was also impressed with how easy it was to put together and how sturdy the television is understand. Did not really wiggle and having for HDMI ports all providing the full 4K scale made it easy for me not to have to figure out which one to plug in for the best picture quality. The design of the frame as nice as well but I had to be really careful cuz there's not much border. I absolutely hate touching the screen at all because cleaning it sucks. I keep the cover that came with it over it to keep dust out. I did not use the smart functions on this television because I heard about ads popping up and I have a fire stick anyway so this was not a factor for me. I did not enjoy spending $650 almost 700 with tax in order to enjoy HDR video games and movies just to have what I consider a low-quality color. I don't online game so the low latency did not matter to me. I'm looking for visuals that will turn me on and maximize my Xbox One X and my 4K movie collection. This TV misses the mark. If it was not those blotchy spots I would be satisfied enough. I'm not too upset that the brightness doesn't pop some colors for for full effect. But when I seen Inky spots the Misty blacks it just reminds me of an older television. These are the reasons I give this television two stars out of five because I can't figure out why the colors don't look as good as my 1080p Hisense. The display model in the store look fantastic when I saw the gears 5 footage but I did not realize I was watching video footage of gameplay, not a game being played directly. Had I seen that I would definitely have avoided this all together.

    A fantastic tv for the price, with the benefit of solid apps for all the main streaming services, including the Apple TV app and Xfinity streaming (no need for that second cable box!). Love it!

    We love this tv, the picture and color are great. Also, the biggest difference to me from the 8 series to the 7 series is the frame rate, and it does make a big difference. I would recommend this tv.
