What a TV!

The picture is just incredible. Once I decided to buy, I took my son-in-law with me to the store to help carry it out to the truck. As we went through the store, I showed him all the TVs I had looked at to compare to the Samsung. He didn't blink an eye or say anything about them. Then we got to Samsung and he just looked at it and said "Wow". That explains it all. This picture just blows away anything else. I really felt silly asking him to come with me because once I got the boxed TV I realized I could have carried it myself. Compared to the 2 older 50" Samsung plasma TVs I have, this one is incredibly light. Make darn sure you do go through your setting when you set it up, the factory setting are not what you want to use at all.
The 3D picture is really awesome. The fact that you get 4 glasses with the TV is really great. I love 3D movies and the movies are just beautiful and crisp.
The only thing I am not in love with is the remote. While I applaud Samsung's effort to be innovative, this remote does not function like I think they wanted it to. Please, drop the touchpad and put back the tried and true key/number pad.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, internet connection
Cons: remote
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent LED TV

I bought this TV less than a month ago and I am absolutely satisfied. The smart features are easy to use and the peformance is so excellent it is ridiculous. After setting it up I was impressed with over the air reception and picture quality but HDMI performance is off the scales. Anyone looking for a great first buy smart tv should definitely buy this tv. I thought 55" may be a bit much my living room but the picture is so clear sitting as close as 5' away it is astounding! The sound is not too bad. There are time it seems like I have my 7.1 reciever on but is the tv. Overall, I love the tv and it is by far a great deal.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight

This is a beast of a TV!

I have been comparing TV's for some time now, waiting, for the perfect one that just grabs me and wont let go. last night while shopping at a membership warehouse this model was next to the entrance and soon as my family and I walked we were immediately captured,.. my wife and kids were frozen with smiles from ear to ear, I knew this was the one. All I did from there was turn around and grab a flatbed and loaded it up. I consider myself a big movie buff and if you love movies the way I do then do yourself a favor and get one, you will not be disappointed, promised. ;)
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, future proof, sleek beautiful design, vivid colors

Awesome features and component interconnection
on December 12, 2013

In addition to the great picture - love how it interconnects with my DVR and my home theater system even though my 7.1 AV receiver and 3D Blu-ray player are not Samsungs. For example when I load a Blu-ray disc the TV comes on automatically and defaults back to my DVR when I turn off the player. All my components are interconnected with HDMI cable including an audio return cable between my AV Receiver and the TV. The DVR is connected directly to the TV allowing me to power off the Blu-ray and AV receiver when not in use. However audio from the DVR can still be run through the AV receiver by turning simply it on.
The ultra thin bezel allowed me to install a 55" in the same space as my old 50" plasma. Loved the picture from my plasma so I was concerned about the refresh rate. I wanted a high refresh rate and 3D capability. This model had what I wanted and more. Fortunately, Samsung's recent price reduction made the cost reasonable for me.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, great features, universal interface

Love the picture quality
on November 3, 2013
Posted by: bmwest6569
I was replacing my 52 inch projection TV that blew a bulb for the second time in the 7 years that I had owned it. I chose this particular TV after doing some research and found that for the money this was the best fit for me. I have had the TV for almost a month and while I am still learning all of the features that come with the TV, I find that the picture quality is excellent. It is like looking out of a window and watching live action. I had never had a 3D TV before and when I purchased this TV I also bought the Samsung 3D Blu-ray player and a Samsung sound bar to go with it. I tried the 3D out watching Avatar and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised of how lifelike everything appeared. I definitely feel that I got my money's worth from this purchase and would recommend it to my friends.
Pros: Realistic color

I have owned this LED TV for a month and am very please with it's performance and value. It would have 5 stars but every once in a while the room lighting auto adjust will get it wrong and the screen back light will be too dark.
Customer support was very helpful assisting me with internet connection.
