We purchased this TV for our Livingroom, After some extensive research. The Picture Quality & Features are what made it a Great Value for the Price. Set up was a Breeze from Box to Watching in under 10 min. Would definitely buy more Samsung Products base on the performance of this TV.
This product has great features and excellent picture

I already owned a Samsung 32 inch LCD TV and was very satified with the picture (in my master bedroom). When the New LED series came out I want to replace my 40 inch sony with a 55 inch Samsung series. I am glad I did, picture is execellent and even without my home theater system sound coming from tv speakers is outstanding.
I owned the TV for 1 day and the sound did not work at all. It was nothing but crackling. Had to send back immediately, which is a shame because the picture is great.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color
Cons: Did not meet expectations, poor sound

Great TV, but could very easily have been perfect

I replaced a Sony 46" LCD projection TV with this TV. The picture is simply amazing, I'm thrilled by how some scenes look like you're right there. That's why I gave performance 5 stars. I gave features only 2 stars for several reasons.
1. To use the Smart Hub, you must connect the TV to the internet. In my case since I don't have ethernet wired where the TV is, I have to use wireless. To use wireless you MUST buy a proprietary USB dongle. Two things wrong with that. The dongle is expensive, I could have bought 2 "regular" USB dongles for what I paid for this Samsung unit. And for what I paid for the TV, wireless should have been built in, or the dongle included at no extra charge. 2. There is no Amazon Streaming VOD app included in the library of apps this TV comes with and apparently there is no way to add it. Amazon is one of the major streaming video companies and to not have their app is a stupid thing to do. I'm hoping that an Amazon VOD app will be available in the near future.
