I bought this TV because of the sharp picture I viewed from the display model. It was extremely easy to set up the TV to the cable box. I had a little trouble connecting the TV to my DVD player but resolved that in a relatively short time. There wasn't too much information on the SMART features but I eventually got those to function. All in all I think the product is excellent.

OVERALL IT IS A GOOD PRODUCT. I FOUND BELOW ISSUES: 1. WHILE WATCHING HD VIDEOS ON NETFLIX, SOMETIMES, HD IS GOING OFF FOR MINUTES 2. NOT SURE WHY BRIGHTNESS GETS REDUCED AFTER FEW MINS OF ACCESSING TV
Pros: Built-in speakers, Lightweight
Cons: sometimes brightness gets reduced even though
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good TV

Bought this TV based on a tech-savvy friend's recommendation.
The TV was so light when i took it out of the box. The setup was very easy. I recommend using a screw gun to drive in the screws for the base, otherwise can be very difficult using a manual hand screw driver. I had to use wired LAN connection to the TV because I was getting poor signal strength from my router, although my laptop was getting good wireless reception in that area of the house.
Configurable options - there are a lot. I didn't like the eco sensor. It was annoying to see the screen auto dim and brighten based on the room lighting. With a dark room, the screen dims, and looks very washed out. I had to turn this feature off. I like that the TV saves configure settings for each source input so I don't have to revert anything if I switch between sources. There is a game mode in the system settings that is nice for console gaming - It improves response time from the console output to the display output. Without the mode, you may detect lag between your control of the game, and the display reaction.
Speakers - Good speakers up to a volume level of about 30 to 40. Anything past that, the TV buzzes and rattles. I recommend the Samsung sound bar, but it comes with a hefty price like all Samsung peripherals. TV has a special audio setting to turn off TV speakers in lieu of external speakers. Peripherals - Samsung offers several interesting peripherals to use with the smart TV. A wireless keyboard is available to aid in your smart hub web surfing, but beware - the keyboard is only for the web browser. It will not do anything for the other apps that you wish it would work for. Other apps require you to use the remote control to type on screen keyboard letters in. It can be frustrating at times. Also, Samsung offers a webcam with microphone built in to use for other cool apps that are available through the smart hub. Warning though, these peripherals are very expensive when compared to typical like items.
Apps - There are a lot of nice apps available in the smart hub. Apps for kids shows, fitness, movie rentals, video clips, video streaming services, you name it! I really love the smart hub on this TV, there is so much you can do. The only con to the apps is the Samsung rollout of updates. I never got an answer from Samsung when I asked why competitor's version of the apps have updated features, but Samsung does not. I wondered if Samsung was slow to roll out the updates, or if Samsung did not contain the updates.
Input Sources - There are a lot of input sources to hook up your home theater devices. 3 HDMI, component input, coaxial input, digital audio output, and more! I thought I had a lot of devices to hook up, but this TV handled them all with no problem. I really like how the BD connect feature works too. My Samsung blu-ray player works together with my TV to provide the best viewing experience. BD wise devices communicate with each other so you don't have to configure things if you don't want to. The TV also has USB inputs that you can use to hook up a flash drive, or USB hard drive and play media from. Pictures, music, and movies! This has become my 2nd favorite feature about this TV (1st being the smart hub digital streaming movie apps).
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, great picture, vudu app

Great picture, quality, and price

This is not my first LED tv. Still own a first generation samsung LED tv. AWESOME picture quality that has continued.
Just had my Samsung DLP die after 9 years and replaced with this one for a big box warehouse club. The features for the price were great and the picture is perfect! Looked at the three other brands and paid a few hundred more to get the Samsung.
I spent weeks researching HDTV's of all types and sizes before I made my decision to purchase this fantastic Smart TV. For the price and features, you will not find a better value and picture on the market today. Trust me, you will love it
