Samsung - 43" Class - LED - J5202 Series - 1080p - Smart - HDTV

I needed a new TV when my 19 year old TV finally quit working. I decided to get a top of the line HD TV. Looking at the Samsung SmartTVl, I realized this was exactly what I was looking for. I moved into a 1bedroom apartment in North Arlington VA, and I felt this TV would be perfect for my needs. I was right! I am very happy with this television.

Upgraded TV for Mom. She really liked it and was light and easy to mount on the wall.

I had hoped this smart tv was going to be a good one being that Samsung is a reputable name brand. The tv takes about 5 minutes or more to “warm up” as I call it, before you can even tune to Netflix or YouTube. It has on occasion turned off or exited from what I was viewing by itself. It’s incredibly light and flimsy feeling. If a price is too good to be true...it is...

I finally decided to discard my 20 year-old tube TV. Though it was 32" it weighed a TON! Literally took two strong men to pick it up and move it. My new Samsung Smart HDTV is a 43" Diag, backlit LED with 1080p. Great "open box" price at $303 (regularly $429) . CAUTION: First time I'd ordered an 'open box' item. When it arrived it was completely open at one end -- don't know if that was the way it shipped or if it happened in transit. I was skeptical but everything was in the box (except a few screws) and in good shape. (If you buy an "open box" item, I suggest you examine it immediately and if there are any problems contact Best Buy immediately.). This issue dropped a star in my rating -- I expected a re-packed box, but not an actually OPEN one (grinning). I only shopped online -- hadn't really seen any "smart HDTV's" in person -- so I was a bit shocked at the panoramic rectangular shape ... Though 43" diagonally, it is about 22" x 38"... smaller than my old squarer tube TV. But beautiful picture and great sound. And it weighs less than 20 lbs!!!! Love the slim look of the flat screen. Am a bit hard of hearing so love the digital sound control/quality ...I often had a hard time hearing my old TV with its limited max volume. Nice remote but I programmed it to work with my universal remote and use that instead. Keeping the Samsung remote to use when/if I misplace the other one. It came with a stand -- which looked 'elegant' but it holds the TV nicely with just 2 screws...rest of them were missing. Stand makes the depth 9". It can be mounted to the wall. Its smart capabilities include: App store, Music player, Photos, Video player, Web browser (full) but I haven't used them yet. The color is rich and the picture is crisp. And I've mostly watched non-HD stuff so far... Love the closed captioning...especially when I'm watching British TV shows... Has Wi-Fi and ready for Netflix, YouTube, Amazon, etc. You can set up to 3 sleep timers. Has optical audio output capability. Can screen mirror some/all? Mobile devices. Watch video from an external device such as a Blu-ray player on the main screen while viewing a TV broadcast in a picture-in-picture (PIP) window... Can change the size of the image displayed on the screen. There are settings for -- preventing screen burn, energy saving options, smart security features (i.e. to prevent hacking) -- creating a block list, etc.., puttinglocks on the front panel buttons, Remote online support is available, too (if hooked to the internet). I am very happy with this purchase and with the speedy delivery. Think this would make a great kid's room or college dorm TV though mine is my primary TV and in my living room. It has a headphone jack for private listening and can be attached to an external sound bar. .

We bought this additional TV mainly so we did not have to pay the monthly Spectrum charge to view their services, since you can view their services through the Samsung SmartTV. So the clarity is amazing, lightweight, great price, use of the apps is great as well since we really were not streamers before the purchase. I really enjoy the TV functionality and it was a great purchase for the price. I might as well save my $7 month and it eventually will pay for the TV and will last longer as well. :-)

I am very pleased with this product and the price. This is a great product.The quality of the image and sound are fantastic. I love that I can be connected to Netflix, YouTube, and other apps. I highly recommend this television for anyone who is looking for high quality at a good price.

Great TV for the price, easy to set up, and the picture and color quality is nice.

Very happy with this TV - great picture, sound, color and clarity. Samsung makes a good product. We're not "techie" at all so had Geek Squad disconnect/dispose of old TV (which was an 11 year old Samsung HD) and connect and adjust the new one -- they were AWESOME! Went back and got the soundbar that I was interested in and hooked it up as well. Could not be happier with the TV and Geek Squad - I will always use them. Was able to order and schedule everything on-line - entire experience was great!
