comment
" ...  Finally, I was actually surprised by the sound. ... In general, flat screen TVs have disappointing sound just because they are so thin, there's no way to get s good set of speakers fit into them. ... I'd recommend listening to the TV first before buying a sound bar as you may find you are happy with the sound and don't need one. ... If you are an audiophile though, you'll want a good quality sound bar for high end audio.  ...  "

comment
" ...  After it kicked me out, the app would work fine but this happened every time I went to turn on the TV. ... I can only launch shows from the quick-launch option on the home menu and the episode it plays is the last episode THAT I ALREADY WATCHED. ... Not only that, but once I'm in Netflix (be it through the quick-launch or the user launch), none of the buttons on the remote work except for the POWER and HOME buttons. ... I don't understand how a TV can be so finicky: launching app perfectly one month, then being completely unusable the next.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The TV also has a web browser but it is a joke specially with this so called smart remote. ... The web browser sometimes causes the TV to freeze so I decided to avoid using it altogether. ... I just heard that Samsung is now pushing Ads through their apps if you upgrade their firmware and if that is the case I will abstain from upgrading. ... If I am forced to do so I will stop using their apps and instead use other streaming devices such as Apple TV or Roku.  ...  "
comment

comment
" ...  What irked me was the Samsung's horrible software. ... I'd get a weird "content not supported" error message. ... It seemed to be a software error with the TV controlling the satellite box (it's supposed to be able to access "extra" content in your shows/movies when available - which is mainly actor information from what I could tell). ... Then we got the same error message and no Direct TV again. ... I then created an online Samsung account via the TV. ... Once I did, I could access the updater and diagnostics (there was no update and the diagnostics said it was fine). ... Also, the apps (Netflix, Hulu, etc.) ... This was another software problem.  ...  "
