Good product, but needs improvements

We have owned this tv for over a year, and have enjoyed using it.The picture is great, the size is good, and we enjoy the 3d features (The Wizard of Oz was terrific in 3D). The smart features do leave something to be desired, though.
We have given up on cable and satellite tv, and have started to get our content from streaming via the internet.
This tv is wifi enabled, and that makes this a good choice. However, the smart apps do not allow you to use a wireless keyboard to input choices, you still need to use the on screen keyboard, and that is frustrating. We did pick up a keyboard, and at least some of the navigation is easier.
Some of the apps have issues, specifically the sirius app. it will timeout(?) or say its buffering, and you have to enter the app again to restart. The sirius page on my computer does not do this.
The TV also gets booted off of the wifi, and you need to go and go through some of the set up for it to connect back to the internet.

other than problems with the smart apps and a bit of frustration with the wifi disconnect, this is a good tv and we will just hope that future updates fix some of the major issues.
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

the internet keeps dropping when in use. I was just informed that the router needs to be closer. I don't have that issue with my other wireless products in my home.
I wished the store informed me of this before buying the product. what is the purpose of buying the TV with many aps when the internet keeps going out especially when trying to watch a netflix

Smart TV for challenged person NOT a good idea
on March 10, 2014

Set TV pieces together more from common sense. Poor instructions. Didn't take the TV out of box 100% correct because warnings fell out after I had it out. Took me maybe an hour to even get TV on WITH A PICTURE. Never could set the remote up. Was late at night so I couldn't talk to someone so I got on the Q&A website. Response didn't help me at all. By chance I realized my cable remote worked with the TV. I've been so busy the last coupe weeks I haven't had time to call in the daytime (know it will take a long time). HD is jumpy some times, especially when using PREVIOUS on remote. Maybe that's because I've got a monster cable instead of HDMI. HD is really nice when we watch that. Also don't know if I should have 'cable' attached from protection (like an extension cord with multiple plug-ins - can't think of name right now). Have a DVD player but haven't tried to hook it up. This is so different from my 40" 530 Samsung. Not a techie - no smart phone, Blue Ray player, laptop, etc. Just registered TV today - over two weeks since we bought it - couldn't figure out website that came up from email in previous attempts
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Did not meet expectations, not for electronically challenged
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
