I believe samsung updated the keypad lighting on this model, compared to my previous stainless one. I'm very happy with this microwave overall.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A bad engineering marvel
on May 7, 2026
Posted by: A1ckdavis
from Toledo ohio
I seriously am wondering if anyone at Samsung actually used this machine before sending it out. You need to have your products tested by real people that actually use microwaves and don’t just have them around looking nice.
It gets two stars because it looks nice and heats things up. That’s about where the pros end.
Unable to see the buttons at nearly any time of day unless you have bright lights turned on. One of the dumbest things is the defrost feature where you can only defrost by weight and cannot enter a time manually. The fan button is in the absolute worst spot. The blue coloring for the digital display…why?
All in all I regret this purchase but I will use it until it dies which should be soon according to other reviewers.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello A1ckdavis,

It's given to expect clear visibility and intuitive controls to support confident, everyday use.

Display visibility and control responsiveness can sometimes be influenced by lighting placement, contrast settings, and panel sensitivity. Adjusting your surrounding lighting or viewing angle can help improve how the controls and display appear during use.

Your feedback also highlights opportunities around control layout and feature flexibility, which are valuable considerations for future improvements in design.

If you ever need to reach out to Samsung, please use one of the support options below and include this reference number: 1152489665.

Don’t buy this microwave
on November 5, 2025
Posted by: Anonymous
The numbers on this microwave do not light up and they are black on black so you can’t see them. There’s no way to light up the instrument panel. The only item that stands out is the stop button, which is red. I wish I would not have bought this item.

Bad product, don’t recommend it at all.

The product doesn’t work at all, since I bought it didn’t want to connect to WiFi, trying to heat it up food and turns off, need to unplug to used it again, totally a frustration, and expensive piece of garbage.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
