Nice TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.The tv is great! I’m paying xfinity a steak and lobster dinner but I’m eating fish sticks. My xfinity stream is only giving me 2 channels. I’m really not happy at 142 a month and I am not getting what I am paying for. They can take all of their equipment and cancel my contract as far as I’m concerned. No fault of Best Buy. Just venting and letting you know. Thanks .
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Ease of use, Picture, Price

I love BOTH my TVs…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I already had bought the same TV, but smaller, about 2 years ago. The colors are vibrant and the TV has worked very well. When I moved 3 months ago I decided to put that TV in the bedroom and buy the same TV but larger , for the living. And I was not disappointed. Again the colors are vibrant, sharp, and absolutely fantastic. What amazed me the most was the price, I bought it 2 days before Christmas and got a great deal. Of course the new TV has added and updated features from the other one, but they work great!!!! I’m very satisfied with my purchase. It was east to set up and step by step instructions were clear. I have my internet and Fios service hooked up to both TV. I love that they are super slim and thin. The only drawback and that goes for all TV’s , if the speakers are underneath the TV the sound and volume will tend to reflex off your TV stand. So volume isn’t as high. To enhance the volume I bought a simple sound bar from Amazon which was great and called Bestisan. It was inexpensive and made the TV perfect. However, I’m Older so I made have needed it. It all depends on how high you want the volume on your TV and if the volume is sufficient for you. All in all I love both my TV and recommend it totally to any buyer that wants a nice looking TV…. Bright colors and most importantly economical.

Samsung Smart Tv 50”
||Posted .Excellent product. Actually ordered a different Samsung 50” for curbside pickup. I decided to ask the Employee Hunter, a few questions before I loaded the TV. Good thing I did as I thought I was getting 3 HDMI connections and he pointed out it only had two. He helped me cancel that order and I purchased this one for only $50 more and it had everything I really wanted. This is the second time Hunter has helped me and he is awesome.

AU 8000 in 50”
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.The Samsung AU8000 is a fine television. Picture quality is 4.5/5. Tizen OS is a bit finicky, 3/5. Brightness is sub par, 3.5/5. Value 4/5. Sound quality (3.5/5) is not very good but that’s because of the very thin design (5/5)

Fantastic at this price point is an understatment
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.Outstanding quality, visuals, options, sounds, and features. It feels like a “smart” tv. Only con is the remote. The remote is VERY sensitive which will lead to clicking off apps without trying to(and that means your previous app restarts so big inconvenience).Also is very small and thin so it gets lost frequently. 100% worth it. Primarily used for gaming and movies and it nakes both outstanding with bascislly no input lag on my end(comes with a game mode). Also has samsung tv which along with apps make cable obsolete

Q: QuestionIs the Samsung AU8000 with the legs sturdy? Worried about it falling over if it gets bumped since it's such a light and thin tv.
Asked by KritterMom.
- A:Answer Hi KritterMom - Thank you for your interest in the Samsung 50" AU8000. Please know that the TV stand was solidly designed and extensively tested for stability. When installing the TV stand, please be sure that your TV's legs are on correctly; "R" on the right, "L" on the left. The legs will slant outwards towards the edges of the TV. When the legs are inserted into the correct holes in the proper direction, you will hear a "click" when they are inserted in all the way. If you have concerns regarding your setup, please contact us at 1-800-SAMSUNG / Available 8AM – 12AM EST 7 days a week. ^Gina
