" ... Awesome monitor/ TV ... "
" ... I was looking for a 4K Smart Display and found this one. ... It is relatively slim considering how thin the bezel is and the internal components are mostly located in the center of the display due to the curve. ... So, this is a feature rich display if you already have Samsung Device. ... It's a little 5 way joystick on the rear right of the display. ... But for a Smart 4K display under $800 this thing is well worth it! ... "
" ... The curved screen is fine, I don't really notice a difference. ... "
" ... Love the quality, but it does reflect any lights in front of the TV which shows a yellow line reflection on the TV screen, have never had this issue with my other LED TV's. ... "

" ... 4K is super . ... "
" ... I was looking for a 4K Smart Display and found this one. ... There are a bunch of content applications built in so if you don't have a TV provider, AppleTV, Chromecast, Amazon Fire Stick or anything like that you can still access Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Video, YouTube, all of the Go apps for different channels as well as TV Plus which is Samsung's "on demand" / Rental/ Purchase platform. ... But for a Smart 4K display under $800 this thing is well worth it! ... "
" ... Haven't really had the chance to get the full benefit out of the 4K portion, but even regular TV is a definite change from the standard Samsung TV I had before. ... "
" ... People comment on how clear the HD picture is. ... "
" ... The curved screen and 4k capability is also fantastic. ... "
" ... My last TV was a HD tube (that's what it said). ... "
" ... wonderful 4k image even when scalled up from other non 4k sources . ... "
" ... Other than that, the 4K Ultra HD picture blows away 1080 HD! ... "
