GREAT TV

We have had this TV for a month and we are more than satisfied. Great picture which adjusts for room light. The initial setup takes a few minutes but the TV does a check for stations available with an antenna while you sign on with Samsung. We are using one of those new flat plastic antennas pasted to a wall. The original TV that was in this spot was too small so we gave it away and put the new Samsung there using the same antenna. The Samsung came up with about 10 more stations than the old TV so it must be made better. You will not be sorry if you make this purchase. We are very happy.

Missing Microphone

We love the TV and the excellent support but are so disappointed it does not have a microphone. We have a disabled adult son who is not able to be independent when using the TV because it’s missing the microphone capability. Who makes TV’s without microphones these days?

Nice TV except for faulty speaker. Went haywire.

This is our bedroom tv. We don’t watch it very often. Nice size, picture and sound was great at first. But then I turned it on and the volume made really loud sounds. Like the speaker was going to break. I unplug it and turned it back on. Worked again. Next time I watched the tv. Same loud noise happened. I bet the speaker is gonna break at any moment. It’s just 1 week past waurantee and only used tv maybe 3-4 hours total.

Nice good quality tv

Bought this about a month ago, this is a great tv. Easy to set up and has a beautiful clear picture. This 40 " tv is the perfect size for a small to midsize room. Even though it has pretty good sound I paired it up with a Samsung sound bar for a little more oomph when watching movies and music concerts. I've owned Samsung for the last 10 years and have been very happy with their products.

Minor Changes Can Make A Good Set

Significant Features missing include: (1) Outlets: To an entertainment centre for sound, an earphone or headset plug for private viewing and the like, (2) a 3rd HDMI to allow a competitive streaming service or other services enter the system , (3) Place the USB plug outside the HDMI set for easier connection to notebooks, etc. (4) the remote: square the back for better one-handed operation (it rolls before depressing the buttons) and larger main buttons (arrows and ok mainly). Overall still a great set and good value for the money.

Perfect when it works...

The picture is great the volume is good all yhays great. The issue i have is that tv freezes. A LOT. And when it does the only way to make anything happen is to unplug it. The remote won't power it off. I only find 1 button on the back of it. It's mounted on the wall so I can't see the top of it, but I can't find power or volume buttons. God forbid I cant find the remote. If it wasn't mounted I'd return it. I didnt think a digital TV would be such a problem because of the amount of tech we use already. It seems to like Netflix most. Other apps don't work near as long. it also responds slowly when buttons are pressed on the remote. Of course if you press again thinking you dodnt press hard enough, you over shoot every time. I wouldn't recommend this item.

Great TV but needs improvements

I like the television a lot, but there are areas which need improvement. The app bar icons across the bottom of the screen are too small and difficult to see which icon is being selected. Either the bar needs to be bigger overall, or a selected icon needs to "grow" more so that we know what app is being selected. Another improvement is that the button layout on the remote is poorly designed. The rewind, fast forward, play, and pause buttons are located at the bottom of the remote and are very difficult to manipulate with one hand while holding the remote.

Beautiful picture

love my new tv. it had more options than i anticipated. my only complaints would be, the icons are too small to easily see which channel option you are on and when i use the left & right arrows to move the tab, it goes too fast and passes up what i want. i can eventually get there. i was pleasantly surprised by all the channels that came with it. love drybar!!!

I loved it until …. the display gave out

This tv only lasted one year for me. the display randomly gave out one day after I watched tv and took a nap. I was out of warranty so Samsung couldn’t help me. They said it’s due to it being an older model. It’s 2020 and I guess it’s 2024… anyways .. I had to buy a whole new tv

Don't buy!

What a piece of crap. 1st, it's not 43 inches long or 40 inches of screen. It's 36 inches of screen and it's super short. The picture is incredibly pixeley and fuzzy. The stand makes it sit very low. This tv isn't worth $75. Awful. I'm returning tomorrow.
