[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The big problem with this tv. It loses connection to sound bar anytime you have any slight pause in viewing time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a non-glare cinematic experience with clear colors and built-in options with natural views of the world/atmosphere, movies and old and new television shows. The technology is an extra benefit!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: Good TV, picture good, and responsive. Easy set up Gaming on it is good. Cons: Sound doesn't have bass, plain sound (neutral).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Samsung TV—it has truly transformed the way I watch, share, and experience entertainment in my home. One of my favorite features is screen mirroring. With just a simple tap, I can instantly cast my phone screen to the TV, whether it’s photos, videos, music, or even apps. It makes sharing memories with family so easy, and I can enjoy everything I love on a much bigger and better screen.
The picture quality is absolutely stunning. The colors are vibrant, the contrast is sharp, and the details are crystal clear. Watching movies, sports, or even casual shows feels like being right there in the scene. Every frame looks smooth and lifelike, which makes the experience even more enjoyable.
I also love how user-friendly the TV is. The built-in Smart Hub gives me quick access to all my favorite streaming apps like Netflix, YouTube, and more, all in one place. I can even use voice control for convenience, which makes it easy to navigate without a remote in my hand.
Samsung has made my living room feel like a personal theater, a family gallery, and a social hub all in one. It’s more than just a television—it’s an experience. From screen mirroring to picture quality and ease of use, my Samsung TV has become one of my favorite devices in the house.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We typically use the tv for watching tv and movies when we are in the bedroom at night or in the morning. The picture quality is good.
The issue with the TV is the Samsung software is slow. The settings menu opens slow. I also had the TV for 2 months and had to have the main board replaced.
The settings and menus are straight forward and the online features are great. You can download your streaming apps.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Picture is okay but has variations in the picture along the top, almost a cloud effect. Poor set up; few apps preloaded; closed captioning requires advance degree to get to work with local channels; remote is difficult to use. If it wasn’t such a hassle to box it up we would have sent it back.
