We purchased this for our Mom. The microphone on the remote was the deciding factor. Really like the apps available and the ease of adding additional apps. Very satisfied with this purchase, in fact, we purchased one for each television.
I bought this to get more things with more options to watch things. Still learning how to use it, may need some help to maneuver the system. My cousin has this and loves it. However, I still hate all the commercials and there is no pause or fast forward. Hate the "We will be right back" thing at the end of commercials. Very irritating.
