Sound/Speakers

Could someone please tell me if this TV has speakers/sound? I was unaware that some TV's don't have speakers these days, when I purchased my last Samsung Television. I definitely do not want to run into this same problem again. Thank you for your time, ahead of time, to whomever may or may not, provide me with an answer.

SAMSUNG ROCKS

This is a great TV. Picture quality is very good and the sound better than my Vizio. The built in apps are great for my streaming of YouTubeTV and Netflix. Assembly of the stand and setup was simple. The price was very reasonable and delivery was free.

Great assortment of showson free channels.

has google assistant but you can't use it with included remote which also has a weak signal to tv. have to point it directly, perfectly at tv. randomly disconnects from wifi and picture is just ok. like the way the menus are set up. pretty easy navigation. sound is great and being a samsung hopefully it will be long lasting for paying a little extra for the name. all in all i am satisfied.

Great one hiccup

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I had read in the reviews that this tv sound may randomly disappear… it had to me after a few months of usage, all I had to do is unplug it for a few minutes and it all came back. The image quality is amazing! Very clear!

Nice picture

switching to optical sound is not user friendly when using a external speaker. you have to keep going to settings then reset before it finally decides to connect. also, i can't use a dvd player with it switching from hdmi 1 to hdmi 2 and it won't support the volume and the picture wasn't great either. so using it to watch cable stations is fine but expect to have audio issues if you lose power and have to reboot your external speaker box.

Wasted a lot of time and soap

tried everything we could think of to download the hulu app but after 2 or 3 hours we finally gave up. the tv is very slow in responding to remote control commands. and why the waste of soap? the tv is located in our open floor plan kitchen/family room. weirdly, pressing any button on the remote triggered the touchless soap dispenser at the sink. from way across the room. had to return the tv and get a different brand. works great and no more wasted soap!

Great picture

the image is excellent, better than the samsung we replaced. very light, and easy to mount. i don't love the smart tv aspect -- remote is cluttered, and the tv is slow to respond and to load apps. currently having trouble using both apple tv and a sound bar via hdmi but haven't tried very hard yet.

Great picture with sharp imaging.

the picture is great! the control system is terrible. indeed, there was no logic in the design of the channel (app?) selection layout. it is very frustrating to use, and each time is a negative experience. navigating with the remote is also a bad experience. the design was poor, an attempt to cram too much into one hand-held device with only marginal functionality. imho, a complete re-think of the operating system is in order; not a complete failure, but close.

Internet browser feature

Nice picture with some good features but the internet browser is not very good and very awkward to use with the remote. I spent hours trying to set up access to some web sites. Very disappointed in the internet access feature as this was one of the main reasons I purchased this TV model.

Nice tv

well got it home and was like wow what a nice tv. but then when trying to add out preferred venues i couldn’t find hulu. i thought i was missing something until i googled it and found that certain serial numbers could not get hulu. to me this is unheard of. i think the quality is nice for the price, this is my first tv over 36 inches and i hope i dont find other quirks down the road.
