    i bought this tv at the end of 2019 and didnt get to use it much because i was always at work. when i finally was able to use it daily, the right side of the screen went dim and wont correct itself. customer service is all but useless, its almost as if theyre trying to ignore me long enough for either my warranty to expire or for me to become so frustrated that i give up on trying to get them to fix it. stil have the box and all the papers... they just deliver terrible customer service and apparently, a terrible product to go with it. last time i ever spwnd that much on a tv. my tcl was a fraction of the cost and is used way more than my bigger, more expensive samsung and ive never had a single issue with it.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

    As a Samsung fan I was supremely disappointed with this TV. The accessibility is so limited. Chief complaint is that small features are made difficult to access: namely "game mode" taking 15 clicks of the remote to turn on or off. It would be so simple to make features and shortcuts more easily available but they're not. Accidentally log into your Samsung account on the TV and your bombarded with "editors choice" and you other unwanted "smart" features that you cannot log off to get rid of. Lastly, and probably most pertinently for a TV: the pictures settings look terrible. Honestly game mode (raw unfiltered visuals) look much better than any default or tinkered graphics overlays that the TV offers. (I just use them at night to filter out blue light, but the edges look shoddy).

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

    Outstanding picture. Beautiful colors, bright screen. The Plex app has to be constantly re-installed because it hangs up. This may be Plex's fault, not Samsung. Worst gripe is that it does not even work with Samsung's own Smartthings. No home automation.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

    I researched several 4k televisions for about 3 months. looked at all of them live and in person at the various stores. I finally decided on this model. I was concerned because the models in the stores always seem to produce a very good quality picture and I was wondering what it would look like at home. My tv was delivered and I set it all up myself ( very easy to set up, just follow on screen directions.) I am very impressed with the picture quality and sound. Really like the curved frame. I am very pleased and highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a new tv.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
