A great TV with a phenomenally good remote.
I've had this TV for a couple of months now. It is awesome, Picture clarity is exceptional. The darks are extremely dark. Of course, it's best with 4K content (which I can find on Netflix). But even regular HD content looks gorgeous. The SmartHub is very fast; it comes up instantaneously, and the apps load quickly. It comes with everything you may want - Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBO and many others for video; Pandora, Spotify, iHeartRadio and others for music. It even comes with a pretty decent Web browser, I was able to log into the Cliburn competition and watch a lot of it through the browser, with no problems and no latency at all. The built-in speakers are pretty decent, but I had it installed with a Sonos soundbar system. It is big, but not overwhelmingly so - I had it installed above a fireplace, and it fills the space but does not dominate it. It is very thin for its size, and surprisingly not that heavy (I could lift it myself). Finally, I absolutely LOVE the remote. It is ergonomics exemplified! Fits very nicely in hand, has ingeniously simple controls, every button is distinct, with its own feel. It is really exceptionally well designed. Bravo to Samsung - it is one of the best electronic products overall I ever used, ever. I only have two complaints about the TV. One, it does NOT have a plug for headphones. How can a TV with all these features not have a simple little plug? I couldn't believe it. I had to buy a special gizmo (MPOW, which is a GREAT product - I reviewed it separately) to connect my Bose headphones to the Bluetooth output (the only option). Minor complaint two, sometimes the apps get "stuck." A couple of times I turned off the TV while Netflix or Amazon was running, and when I turned it back on, it was not responsive to any other buttons on the remote (just on and off). I had to unplug it to "reboot," then it was fine again. It only happened a couple of times. So overall, I would buy it again, it's just awesome.
