More than I expected

Love this TV. Purchased for a bedroom and needed one with a swivel base. Picture quality is great along with the apps and other features. Knocked off one star for features as this set limits the number of picture size adjustments.
I have been an avid Samsung electronics fan for a while. It all started with the mobile phones. They were intuitive and practical. This TV prove to be LED F5500 Series Smart TV - 40" Class is just like one of the Samsung phones... bigger!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to use
Cons: universal remote depends on set up device
I would recommend this to a friend!

It has a great picture. the response time when loading an app is fast. it is light weight and it makes it easy to move around. I love it. I will always buy Samsung.
I am amazed with the quality of the picture. It is so bright and makes watching TV so much better. Plus, all the extra Smart features makes this the TV of my dreams! Cheers
The TV performed great the first 4 months, but started dying after, first it shut down once a day, then every day 2 to 5 times until it just stayed off. Thank god I was able to return it back in exchange for another brand. Sadly because of that I would not buy samsumg tv no more.
I think this TV is outsmarting me, but I'll someday learn more about it's many features... Though, there is problem with streaming Netflix. I have been using a different device to stream Netflix, as there is a problem streaming through the TV. I've found others who have had the same problem and have had to have a circuit board replaced... I will contact Samsung for the replacement as soon as the 30-day store warranty has expired. Other than that, it's a GREAT TV and a huge improvement over my prior television!
I wanted to give this TV a great review, but I cannot. Whenever you go to Netflix and get back out, you will lose the signal source and must go through the set-up steps to get the signal back. Samsung has admitted this is a known problem and are working on a solution. Another issue is with the universal remote and how it controls the TV versus the set-top-box. Whenever you turn the power off for the TV, the STB will power off as well. There is a seperate button for STB power on the remote, so you would assume that only that button would control the STB power. That is not the case. Samsung states that this is normal functionality of the remote, but I don't want to kill the STB when I power off the TV. This stops my DVR from recording.
The picture is great, but I expect that from Samsung since I have several Samsung TV's already. This is my first Smart TV and I have had this model for less than 24 hours, however, and I am less than pleased with it so far.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This tv has an awesome picture and was very easy to hook up. The only flaw I can see, is that it does not have manual on/off switch for times when you misplaced the remote.
