[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The television runs cool, looks great ,.
Unfortunately it has a junk remote , easily misplaced and fragile. The software on the television is a turtle in comparison to what I thought 2026 software would perform. Television offers many good games movies and applications but many can't perform under hardware specs , take multiple paid subscriptions, are not compatible but advertised, the controls feel manipulated beyond the basic haptics of a remote layout.. the television turns onto random things when powered on just depends on the day. Very strong internet connection but still choppy connection uncertain of issue
Only one USB port and three HDMI ports. Give me more power and less waste.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a Samsung 55" TV that I have had for years, and I was looking to go a little larger in prep for the World Cup and College Football, but the newer model did not deliver like the older model that I had. Sadly, the color saturation, the reflection of natural light, and the overall picture were underwhelming, and I decided to stay with my older 55". I will wait to upgrade when I can afford one of the more expensive models as I do like the Samsung product but this one just did not perform like I thought it would.

Tv Just ok
on July 6, 2026
Posted by: bwaxx55
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The brightness on this TV is hard to adjust we do not need it to be at full brightness at night. I tried adjusting and it does not dim really at all. Our last Samsung did this automatically. I also wish it would be on the last channel I was watching when we turned it off instead of having to go thru app screen every time when we turn it on. Sleep timer takes several clicks to get to as well (in settings). Old Samsung sleep timer was on the remote not in settings.

Hi loving retirement,
Thank you for sharing your experience. If your TV powers on but you’re seeing a black screen, it could be caused by your external device or the connection itself. Please try the following steps to help determine the cause:
1. Press the Home button on your Samsung remote.
– If the menu appears, the TV is powered on but may be on the wrong source or not receiving a signal.
– If the menu does not appear, the TV may be experiencing power issues.
2. Check the red standby light near the bottom of the screen.
– The light is on when the TV is off (standby), and off when the TV is on.
– If the light is off and there’s no menu or picture, the TV may not be receiving power.
3. Check your input source.
– If your cable box or streaming device is connected to HDMI 1, ensure the TV source is also set to HDMI 1.
– If it’s already set correctly but there’s still no picture, unplug and reconnect the HDMI cable at both ends. If any cable is damaged, it will need to be replaced. Power cycle the device and TV after reconnecting.
4. Try a different HDMI port or cable.
– Connect a different external device to see if the issue is limited to one source.
– If a new device works, you’ve narrowed down the issue.
5. Run HDMI Troubleshooting. Go to: Home > left directional key > Connected Devices > Connection Guide > Video Device > HDMI Troubleshooting (approx. 2 min).
6. Check for firmware updates. If your screen stays on long enough, we recommend checking for updates, which may resolve any HDMI communication bugs: Home > left directional key > Settings > Support > Software Update > Update Now
If the problem persists after these steps, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (8AM – 9PM EST Mon – Fri, 8AM – 6PM Sat – Sun). LiveChat agents are also available via the ‘Support’ section on our website.

Remote problem
on July 6, 2026
Posted by: Shera
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not all the tv’s that say that they have voice recognition have it. You need to purchase a separate remote for that. Setting up options make you think you have that when only certain tv’s come with a remote that will work for voice. The tv is good quality besides that one issue.
I would recommend this to a friend!
