" ... No display at this price does HDR well. ... Again, it's an LCD LED panel - it's not IPS so idk why you'd expect a great color repro to begin with (: ... "
" ... Edge lit LED panel with super clean image. ... "
" ... Its like watching a hologram--the picture is so clear and the screen bigger tha my old TV. ... "
" ... I think I will try out the curved one next to make the corner glances easier to identify. ... "
" ... 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. ... "
" ... This allowed the tv sound to play while the screen is powered off. ... "
" ... I do prefer curved displays, but those are becoming less common so I settled on this flat one. ... "

" ... Who has a 30" TV stand? ... "
" ... Right now I'm on a TV stand but it is going to look even better when i hang it on the wall. ... "
" ... 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. ... "
" ... 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). ... "
" ... I wall mounted it in my apartment. ... "
" ... I did have to source some different length #8 bolts for my existing wall mount but that was minor. ... "
" ... I got the 50” and it was lightweight enough for me to mount to the wall by myself, but I am not small. ... "

" ... The remote is not a good one (the TV from 2016 I own is awesome . ... I want to buy the 2016 model and remote again :( I would still have to deal with the ads (corporate greed) but at least I’d have good picture and a sweetly simplified remote. ... "
" ... The TV just arrived and I have it setup and the remote is defective. ... I changed out the batteries with new batteries and the remote doesn't function. ... I checked the remote using the camera on my phone and no IR light is emitted when pressing the buttons. ... "

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. ... "

" ... Color and definition great. ... "
" ... But considering that I, as someone who owns a Spyder and clearly cares about color reproduction, haven't been sold on HDR do to the cluster . ... Without color calibration you're looking at dark grey blacks (and with you're still looking at very dark grey blacks bc LCD) and there's clearly SOME ghosting that I only see while scrolling my web pages, notes, ect. ... "
