We love the tv only thing I see but able to adjust to; when watching in the dark the picture is dark too and when you diget in the channel it takes a few second to show up and some time I digit it again and then it comes up double digit channel.
I love this TV! It has great features and a sleek design. I use multiple devices on the TV and an Antenna. The colors and graphics are superb. Wish there would have been more inputs but I can make it work with what is provided. Con: The speakers face downward and seem to bounce every witch way but forward.
I enjoy having a smart t.v but I do not like the fact my kindle for hd will not connect to a smart t.v, also I am not able to play no real games they adult games they are either all kiddie games. I cannot get non of the cool features like(PIP), DVD CONNECTIONS, IT'S NOT ALL WHAT I WAS HYPED UP FOR IT TO BE
My husband and I went looking for a TV to connect to netflix without our blue-ray, and we found this one. It does everything it claims. With a wonderful picture and sound quality.
I had the misfortune of wasting time with a few SmartTVs of other brands and all they gave me was headaches and missing features. The amount of apps is astounding-a little over 1,000 I believe. There is an app to do just about anything. Most of the other SmartTvs just give you Netflix and other apps that require you spend a lot of money. I can spend hour after hour watching useful programs for free. It usually costs hundreds of dollars to get anything near the features.
As far as the other aspects of the TV: The picture is absolutely fantastic, beyond compare, deep rich color, and great contrast capabilities. It does a great job of clearly displaying the amount of lighting and show as it is intended. The sound is nice as well. I've seen a few TVs of this size and they sound muted or muffled, (especially those with rear facing speakers). This TV has clear sound quality at moderate levels-but if you are frequently looking for a TV that has a more in-your-face volume, this might not be the best unit. Durability is not a problem here. The frame is not bulky, but sturdy without being heavy. The base clearly supports the screen in a way that clearly shows that it was not just simply an afterthought.
It would have been nice to have a few more inputs. I would imagine that others might need more than the 2 HDMI spots given. The coax input seems to be uncommon anymore. There is a combined composite / component video input. I know that I would have liked to have these 2 separate, and an additional input as well would have been nice. One little aggravation I have found is that the remote signal must be DIRECTLY pointed at the remote sensor, the signal from the remote seems a little week, and the unit responds with a little more lag in response time than I like. Overall, there are so much more important features that make you easily forget about the few imperfections. Like I said, don't bother wasting time looking as any other SmartTV.
I will focus on the web browser. It is extremely slow. It does not not support flash. There is no reason to pay for this feature unless it gets improved.
If you are looking for a TV with web browser. This is NOT the model you should consider.
I have a 32inch flat screen samsung thatis , have always been very satisfied with it, was looking for a 40 inch for my living room , wanting to put the 32 inch in the bedroom , went looking and saw this and knew I wanted to get it. The price was right and it was a smart tv also, still not sure the smart part works but with a little help I will figure it out.
