My TV

The only thing I can see I would change is I would make it a swivel base. That is the only thing I would change. Also we had to figure out how to reconnect the remotes to the tv once it was unpacked.
The TV was just installed about 4 hours ago so we are still trying to get use to it. The voice activation instructions are not clear, yet. The verbiage does not match the on screen help picture. Trying to get use to all the features, as well as find out extra features that can be purchased.
Overall it's a good smart tv with a lot of features. Slight motion blur, but it's not bad, nothing that detracts from viewing. Otherwise the picture is outstanding. Eco mode does make the picture seem too dark when the ambient room light is low, so recommend turning it off. Like all flat screen tv's, slight glare on the screen when room lights are on, so you need to adjust the placement of your table/floor lamps or the position of the tv.
This tv is excellent for viewing live tv streaming over the internet. We viewed live HD tv from Europe and the picture was very good, only the occasional freeze/pixelation, which was rare (we hardwired the tv to our router, and have 50 Mbps ISP service). We haven't tried the online movie services yet (Amazon, Netflix, etc.)
The smart remote is good, takes a little getting used to but makes maneuvering the menu fairly easy with the pointer. Voice recognition (VR) is so-so, good for basic commands, but when searching the web on this tv, it's easier just to type (using either the smart remote, or the optional keyboard). When using VR in the Samsung browser, the browser sometimes lists suggested websites for what you're searching for. This may seem convenient, however, it bogs the tv processor down to the point that the VR does not work for 15-20 seconds, and you need to wait until the VR option is ready. Also, you cannot use the VR to type a URL address or a word in a search engines menu. To search, you need to say the whole phrase "[Your favorite search engine] search US Presidents" Just saying "Search US Presidents" the tv will not understand the request. Another minor thing, you cannot close an individual tab (page) in the browser with the VR, you need the smart remote pointer for that. Saying "exit" or "close" will close the whole web browser. Hopefully Samsung will update their voice recognition feature.
Finally, the smart remote does not not turn our cable set-top box on or off, but we are able to change the channels. It would be great if the smart remote would be able to match up fully with set-top box.
Overall, this is a very good smart tv.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display
Cons: minor to none
I would recommend this to a friend!

Only had this TV for a short time but so far very happy we choose it
The best picture by far, I'm completely happy with my purchase is worth every penny, lot's of features for the money, sound is unreal with the Samsung soundbar. The TV is easy to navigate with the remote. The online apps work jicely, HBO, STARZ, YOUTUBE, HULU PLUS, PANDORA, Lots of fun for the whole family. All friends and family are amazed at the picture and they ask if I paid 3 to 4 k for the TV.
I love the picture quality of this television & it was very easy to set up. Syncing the remote was easy to do, just follow the instructions in the book. Connecting the WiFi was also easy to do. Sound is not deep & rich; but with a sound bar it is awesome. I have this TV for just over 2 months & have really enjoyed it. No glare either
Pros: Realistic color, easy set up
Cons: should come with a wireless keyboard
I would recommend this to a friend!
