" ... Amazing viewing angle from the curved screen. ... "
" ... I've loved using it, compared to my 1080p screen there is definitely a noticable difference that's not in my head. ... When I came back to this screen, I noticed all sorts of detail in-game that I never noticed before, it was beautiful, and then I realized "oh yeah, you've been using the 1080p TV again until recently" ... However, as impressed as I am with having higher resolution, I don't care at all about the "curved" screen. ... but really, I won't bother getting a curved screen next time, at least not if it costs any more. ... "
" ... Excellent display for use as a monitor. ... "
" ... 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. ... "
" ... Vizio at Walmart that was for sale as a used display. ... I know some people have excellent results from the Amazon Warehouse program, and as someone who has had great success buying used/refurbish/display products I understand. ... The curved screen and 4k capability is also fantastic. ... "

" ... Planet Earth II (4K version) looks unprecedented - neighbors flock to this set just to enjoy a virtual 'vacation' around the globe. ... HDR features makes a huge difference in a myriad of hues - another room in the house has a 4K OLED (which predates HDR) and this Samsung yields the more vibrant colors with a richness other 4K TV's just don't produce. ...

" ... 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. ... "
