Love the picture, the remote and menus not so much
on August 18, 2026
Posted by: Bob W
This is a re-write of my review, as requested by Samsung: For the picture on this TV I would give it 5-stars. The picture and the screen's abilities to provide an excellent picture are outstanding. It is able to provide anything you might prefer from quite dim to absolutely brilliantly bright. Contrast can be adjusted to the same level of extremes as the brightness. The uniformity of the picture is also all that you could ask of a set, especially in this price range. Being a 4K TV, its ability to upscale is something to really appreciate and is apparent when watching media that was made pre-1080I, as the upscaling feature does improve the lower resolution of those productions in most cases. The sound is fairly decent considering the set is a simple two-speaker, down-firing system, with a relatively low-powered amplifier. Sadly though, like so many manufacturers today have done, the only audio out is for optical devices only. Long gone are any "legacy" hook-ups and I should point out here that not only includes the sound output, buy the video input as well. You can no longer use RGB, component or even the traditional fall-back default of RCA composite connections. There's HDMI in and Optical audio out. There is a single USB A port that can be used to input from USB memory media devices for movies, videos, etc. All of these things are pluses for this set and we like them. Now, for what we don't like: One, the included remote is sorely lacking in what it is able to control on the TV, mostly due to it being done in a "minimalist" style. What I'm saying here is Samsung has attempted to move as much control from the included remote to the screen itself. If you've been paying attention to what has been happening in new cars with the manufacturers removing buttons and knobs from the dashboards, and placing them on a screen on the dash instead, well they've done on this TV. Samsung has tried to strike a similar aesthetic here on this TV and probably all of their sets. To put it simply, we don't like what they've done. The few buttons that remain on the remote are very poorly labeled, and some of them don't move in an intuitive manner. For example, there are two very small rectangular buttons that stick up from the surface of the remote about 1/16th of an inch. It took me quite some time to realize you needed to use these to change the channel, but you don't "push down" to get a response. You must "catch" the top edge of these little buttons to "rock" or "nudge" them either forward or backward. If you're anything like the average person you will frequently find your fingers simply sliding over the top of the button because they're very small, they do not stick up very far and the plastic is very smooth, almost slippery. This is very much how the design of the entire included remote is done. Not easy to use, almost indecipherable and actually small enough that you can easily have it fall out your hand if you aren't careful with it. Now, our second dislike and it looms large for us. This isn't our first 4K Samsung set. Our first Samsung 4K set is now about 10 years old, but its menu system is far more intuitive, logical and understandable. Our new MiniLED set's menus are very trying, not logical and many times the only way to actually pull something up that you want is to use the search function. We are keeping the TV because we love the picture and sound, and we found an excellent work-around so that we can use our new set. The remote from our 10 year old Samsung 4K set works perfectly with the new set, and the way it was laid out brings back the logic and control that was missing due to the included remote being almost useless for us. With the old remote we now can access every feature on this new TV and do not have to hunt and depend on moving a little cursor around on the screen to back control. Good TV, bad remote and software.

Hi Bob W,
We appreciate your detailed feedback on the M70H TV. Please know your opinion is important to us and will be shared with our internal teams. Regarding available inputs, if an Optical port is a crucial part of your setup needs, you’ll find that connection starting with our QN70F Series and above.
For future purchases, we recommend double-checking the product specs on Samsung's site to ensure the model you choose has the ports you need. You can find this by clicking on “Specs” (just beneath the Product Title), then "See All Specs" for the full list of available inputs and more: https://www.samsung.com/us/tvs/mini-led-tv/50-inch-mini-led-4k-tv-m70h-sku-un50m70hafxza/
Next, while the remote may appear minimal, many buttons offer multiple or long-press functions to help simplify the design without sacrificing functionality. For example:
• Settings/Number/Color: Allows you to easily access your TV's Quick Settings and input channel numbers.
• Volume rocker: Push up/down to adjust volume. Press and release quickly to mute.
• Long-press Volume button: Hold for more than 1 second to open Accessibility Shortcuts.
• RETURN button: Press to go back to the previous menu or screen. While watching TV, it takes you back to the previous channel.
These functions allow for a more streamlined experience without adding extra buttons.
Learn TV Remote is a feature designed to help users become familiar with the layout and function of each button on the Samsung remote. When enabled, pressing any button (except the Power button, which will still turn off the TV) will prompt the TV to announce the button’s name and its purpose – without affecting TV operation.
This teaching mode is especially useful for users who are visually impaired or new to Samsung remotes. To enable this feature, go to: Settings > All Settings > General & Privacy > Accessibility > Learn TV Remote. To exit, simply press the Return key twice.
If you’d like more assistance with this feature, please reach Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (8AM – 9PM EST Mon – Fri, 8AM – 6PM Sat – Sun). LiveChat agents are also available through the ‘Support’ link on our website.

My 2nd Samsung Tv
on August 16, 2026
Posted by: Lamar
from Los Angeles
I'm really happy with my Samsung TV overall. The picture quality is definitely the standout for me The brightness is excellent, especially in a bright room, and the contrast gives the image a really nice sense of depth. Colors look vibrant without being overdone, and everything just looks sharp clean, and detailed
I'm also very pleased with the screen uniformity. Bright and dark areas look consistent, and I haven't noticed anything distracting that takes away from the viewing experience,
The responsiveness of the TV did take a bit of getting used to. The menus, apps, and general interface feel a little different from what I was used to, so there was a bit of a learning curve. That said, once you spend some time with it, it becomes easier and more intuitive
My main disappointment is the sound. I would much rather have the TV audio go through my AV receiver and external speaker setup. The built-in speakers are fine, but if you already have a proper audio system, the integration could definitely be smoother and more straightforward
Overall though, I'm very pleased with it. The brightness, contrast, vibrancy, sharpness, and overall picture quality are all excellent. There's a bit of adjustment needed with the interface, and I'd prefer better integration with an external receiver for sound, but none of that really takes away from how good the picture is
Great picture and a very enjoyable TV overall
