" ... I did have to source some different length #8 bolts for my existing wall mount but that was minor. ... "
" ... Now I just have to figure out how to cat proof it which probably means a wall mounted unit. ... "
" ... I wall mounted it in my apartment. ... "
" ... to fit the wall space available. ... "
" ... I have yet to see a universal mounting kit include these longer M8 screws. ... So my existing Wall Mount for my previous TV, which was measured to fit and mount perfectly , has to be completely done over. ... all because the VESA holes are so close to the Top of this TV. ... "
" ... It took a while but using all the provided screws and spacers, I managed to attach the mount I used on my prior flat screen satisfactorily. ... "
" ... After hanging it to the wall it took only 15 minutes to install. ... "
" ... Overall, I would recommend this tv if you're looking for a high quality brand name at a reasonable price and wouldn't mind mounting it on the wall (I'm not into that). ... "

" ... Perfect for small bedroom ... "

" ... Recently I figured out how to use ARC on HDMI and now I got rid of my receiver remote. ... "
" ... It also contains Optical Audio Output Port, it is a useful option to connect to external speakers like theater sound systems. ... "
" ... I hooked it up to xfinity and WiFi very easily and HDMI 1, I’m assuming that HDMI 2,3,4 are for other stuff like sound bar,, ect,., I’m not sure now if it’s working in its optimal capacity, especially if some channels aren’t working- help anyone out there who has this model, I guess I have to contact seller 😞 we love this Samsung, I’m hoping there’s something I can do here from home. ... "
" ... It turns on and you don't have to wait for the smart hub to connect up. ... "
" ... however, for the price I paid and the fact that it has 3 HDMI inputs, I accepted as a reasonable compromise. ... "
" ... It's also very nice that it has 3 HDMI inputs and an fiber optic digital audio out. ... "
" ... So, you plan to buy a big screen display for gaming that can change the refreshing rate, then go with PC monitor (with Display Port). ... "
