But... I had carefully re-packaged and obtained a refund because... Website does not provide enough pre-purchase information. I even downloaded the so-called Manual that I regard as useless because it doesn't provide any info that is much better than the setup guide. I was looking for a rear diagram to check for RCA Jacks Audio output needed to operate my wonderful SennHeiser remote Headset that I require to hear TV because I am partially deaf. Otherwise I have to turn TV volume up so loud it vibrates the walls and my wife can't sleep. My 20 year old Insignia TV include red and white (right and left jacks) for audio output. This set does not, so I boxed it up for Amazon free return. I then went and checked other boxes at Walmart and Sam's Club and the rear panels are all the same. No RCA Audio Output. A little trap door marked "Optical Audio Digital Output" caught my eye. Audio? I check on Amazon and happy days! Doubly so because 40 inch sets are as rare as Hen's teeth, while 43 inch is too big and won't fit in my room; I find a Converter Cable that converts Optical to Analog RCA Audio at a very reasonable price. I complain loudly at the difficulty of finding good-quality 32-40 inch TV's as marketing strategy is always more, more, more, bigger and bigger. Where does it end? 200 inch TV's at 64K Resolution? I need help to be physically boosted into my Son-in-Law's Pickup Truck. I guess I've been stuck in a 20 year old time warp. I order the Cable, again, unbox this Samsung Unit and Voila! It works great! Cancel my return! Picture and Sound, (for my wife, who can hear a Cockroach fart), are very good. She listens to TV speakers at low volume while I listen separately on my Headset. Sound is so good it's like I'm a teenager; hard of hearing has melted away! I would subtract a star if it weren't for the fact that all the TV manufactures are all the same-manual is mostly useless, RCA Jacks a thing of the past. I blame myself for looking to the past, ignorant of the present. OH well - all's well that ends well. Read more
I’ve purchased several of these TV’s to use in a home remodel. They are a great size, simple to set up and at a very reasonable price point. I’ve had 4 installed recently in a rental home. Streaming is easy, picture quality is spot on and I love that there’s no glare. Wifi set up was a breeze, remote control is simple and the colors are crisp and can be adjusted to your preference. Zero complaints for my use! Read more
I had this same model until about a year ago, and really liked it until a voltage surge damaged the audio. One of my housemates is still using that set with earphones, but I didn't want to go that route and made the mistake of replacing it with another brand I'd never heard of rather than with a Samsung or equivalent. That set lasted only a year before unexpectedly dying, so when it had to be replaced I went back and got the same Samsung model I'd had and enjoyed before. It's easier to set up [not as many unnecessary and annoying steps], has better video and audio quality, and I expect it to last a lot longer. Read more
It is four stars only because you need an additional gadget to set up bluetooth. The rest is top-notch. I have this TV for couple weeks and love the picture quality, the size of TV, and the price. Being Samsung TV, it has tons of Samsung TV channels, plus I use smart TV apps, and a few local TV channels I receive with a small indoors antenna (I have no cable TV subscription). It took to time to set it up, Wi-Fi connection did not work and I use ethernet, but I guess it is caused by the router being in another room. I am close to illiterate in tech gadgets and I am not paid to promote other Amazon products. I like to use headphones, but this TV has no bluetooth in it. If you go to TV settings - sound, it says something like HDMI-ARC. After googling all these mysterious words and reading answers about this TV, I bought "HDMI ARC Adapter Audio Converter" https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0791CFGY1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I already had (also bought on Amazon) bluetooth transmitter receiver, and bluetooth headphones. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09DD33SDD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09JGF23V3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I paired these headphones with bluetooth a few days ago (they said "paired" but had no sound). I connected the converter to the HDMI ARC in TV via HDMI cable, and also to USB in the TV as power supply. Then I connected the converter to the bluetooth transmitter via audio cable (red and white cables), and got a great sound in my headphones. I had the TV connected to a soundbar via optical cable. Now I can use only soundbar (ot TV speakers without the soundbar), only bluetooth headphones, or both at the same time. The sound quality is very good. If you are looking for the best listening experience (bass, various music etc.), I can't answer because I was looking for a good quality sound via headphones and I got it. Overall, I highly recommend this TV. Read more
