Excellent Purchase

For the money, this is an excellent TV. The picture is incredible. The TV is lighter, uses less energy, and does not get near as hot compared to the old plasma it replaced. When we first watched a movie on it, we had to look to see if a setting was messed up because it looked almost 3D. We decided that we were just not used to a picture that clear and have since gotten used to the movement on the screen. Good stuff. If I had to complain about anything, it would be about the remote. I find it a bit cumbersome and not so easy to move around with just the thumb. But, that is not anything that would turn me off since I don't use it much anyway.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent picture, smart features are good. Does not play well with other than Samsung

The picture is great, and I liked the idea that I would be able to stream video through the built in web browser (network TV websites), but have been disappointed at the browser performance.
When streaming, the picture is great, and the sound is great, but it consistently stalls or crashes after 5-10 minutes of viewing. Recovery sometimes requires turning the set off and back on. This means that to watch a 1/2 hour show can take more than an hour, with numerous interruptions. I have looked for other browser options with no success.
PIP seems to work only with HDMI. Does not work with other applications, such as the browser.
The remote battery indicator is already near dead, and I've hardly used the TV (3 weeks so far).
Whenever I select the GUIDE, the small picture goes away for 15-30 seconds while the guide updates (over the air, no cable or satellite), and then when I switch to the next page, it does this all over again, third page, and again... It would be nice if there was an option to load the guide details in the background.
iPhone, iPod, iPad app is still beta, and not very reliable.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: weak browser, guide update is slow, friendly only with samsung devices
I would recommend this to a friend!

The setup of this T.V. was very easy. The color and sound are high quality and make watching/hearing very enjoyable.
The internet connection is great and makes watching netflix, redbox and other features very easy to reach and utilize.
Started off with a Samsung chromebook and just liked the product and style. I feel this company knows how to make a product that is consumer friendly.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight

Best picture, features and price for non 3D TV

We have had this TV for over a month now and are very pleased with our purchase. Set-up tip: use a drill to screw base to TV, being careful not to over tighten. The screws are very hard to screw in with just a screwdriver.
TV setup was a cinch. The Smart Hub is very intuitive and it is great to be able to access favorites like Netflix, Amazon, Facebook, etc. without changing the source simply by pushing the smart hub button on the remote. The icons appear at the bottom of the screen and you can access the one you want by clicking on its icon. Internet is hard to navigate using the remote. We found a wireless keyboard that has eliminated this problem.
The picture is really exceptional. We did tweak the settings somewhat to get it to our liking. We would suggest using a sound bar, which is not unusual for HDTV's.
Overall, this is the best value in terms of picture, features and price! No buyer's remorse here.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
