The picture quality is very good. While the remote is a little touchy, I prefer its simplicity over previous Samsung remotes. The one issue I have is that the Netflix app does not load consistently. (Others have said the same about the Sling app.) Selecting the app from the screen or using the Netflix button on the remote hangs the TV. The screen is just blank. I have to unplug and replug the TV to get Netflix to load. This happens every time I attempt to load the app. I've tried removing the app and reactivating it, same problem. This is a SW issue. Unfortunately, Samsung hasn't seen fit to provide a fix for this problem. I'd give the TV 5/5 stars except for this problem and since the TV is a 2023 model and we're now in 2024, my guess is that Samsung won't bother to address the issue at all. My next plan is to install a smart plug to cycle power on the TV. We'll see if that works. If not, I have a few more days to return the TV! Read more

Been using Samsung TVs for some years. Accustomed to the Tizen OS and the remote. Last year dropped all cable and satellite services so started using the Samsung TV Plus streaming. Alot of useful and garbage programing. But what the heck. It's free. So, decided to stay with Samsung. Wanted a picture quality at least the same as friends 4 year old Samsung level 7 TV. Figured this first level QLED would be better. Not really, but better than my old level 6 Samsung. But, the newer Tizen OS is annoying as heck. Way to intrusive. Every channel change this crap comes on the screen displaying what I'm watching, what I could be watching and what had been watching. Then, another thing in top right corner telling me how to use the remote for other channels. Annoying. Then, when using Pluto free streaming, the TV just stops. Black screen. No button on remote does anything. The power supply to the whole system must be rebooted. Mounting to a wall is a pain. The bolt pattern is small and a very specific bolt size must be used(not included with TV). Read more

The picture is great. This TV has great resolution, clarity, and color saturation for the price point. The primary issue is, and it's a big one, you cannot use multiple remotes with this TV. Only one can be synchronized with the TV at a time. Why does this matter, may you ask? If you have small children who have a propensity to make remotes and other small items disappear, that will effectively render this TV inoperable. My son, who is 12 months old, took the remote, we cannot find it, and now have an expensive wall ornament. The problem is that you cannot even buy another remote because you need one that is synchronized with the TV in the first place in order to synchronize another one. It's a catch 22. If I had been aware of this flaw, I would have not purchased this TV. If you have small children, opt for a TV that still uses the old school IR remotes, and don't even bother with this TV for gaming unless you don't mind a slow refresh rate. These days, 144hz is the minimum acceptable refresh rate for anything other than single player RPGs. Read more

This tv has everything I look is a beautiful picture, nice and slim. Not too heavy. Sturdy legs. And one of the best things is that it. Was delivered in perfect condition not even a mark on the box. Way to go UPS!! I love our new 55 inch tv. One thing to remember to. Samsung is plug up and play and most items you May choose to hook up with it is too. It is compatible with just about any thing on the market. The last tv we had was a Samsung that finally gave up the ghost was a plasma tv. It was approx 15 years old older at least. They r a wonderfu company! I use to sell tvs for a living. And Samsung was always a customer favorite due to the above mentioned positive points!! They r # 1 on my list! They are a dependable long lasting product!! Not a tv that lasts a year or two and you r out shopping Again! Read more

So I am using a newer Roku device along with a HDMI 2.1 cable... This gives the TV the ability to do what is known as "Auto HDR" so it can operate in 8-bit mode (normal color space) when the video on the screen isn't using 4:4:2 or greater and when the content does contain the data to support HDR and 10-bit depth it will automatically switch... I say all of that to say this, when it switches from HDR to "standard" you can see a instant 20% difference in image quality. This is most noticeable in Plex on Roku where the trailer it loads from IMDB or Youtube is in low quality and you press play and POOF you can instantly see how the colors improve. This is only visible if you're using HDMI 2.1 from start to finish. HDMI 2.0 will allow you do HDR but it won't be dynamic and it won't be at 4k. I think given the price, this is the best TV under 1k. I got the 55-inch model for just under $500 on a sale, and it fills my room great. Paired it with the B series sound bar from Samsung and feel like for
