    Really excellent tv. Clear picture + vivid colors. The sound is fine. I usually buy Sony, but the reviews of this Samsung convinced me to try it. In fact, I bought two! I am glad I did.

    Needed a TV in my house and this was a great buy. Picture quality is great. Sound is ok but we are able to connect our speakers by Bluetooth, which was great.

    Bought this to replace an Lg that died after 4 years. So far so good. Easy to set up, great picture. I’m also pleased w the sound. The Lg required a sound bar to even out special effects sounds and dialog- this tv does not.

    We are using this tv in a rental condo, easy to use and the remote is simple. I do wish the remote had actual numbers on it for faster changing of the channels.

    This TV has a great picture and doesn’t buffer as much as my older model. The legs are definitely an upgrade and easy to install. No screws needed to install them.
