After market research, I ended up with the Samsung smart tv 43"...I had a previous Samsung smart tv 32" and I was quite satisfied, but it was an old model and did not support enough applications that I wanted to use. I bought the TV mainly to have access to the Cosmote and NOVA apps, which work great and were already installed, as well as the netflix, youtube, prime video, Disney+, apple tv, Rakuten tv, ANT1+ apps, while also supporting regular and hybrid television (ERTFlix, etc.). In terms of image, it is very good with vivid colors and very clear clarity, the sound I agree with others who have mentioned that it is not so powerful, but personally it doesn't bother me so much. With the remote control, I had a difficulty at first to get used to it, I was surprised that it didn't have the numbers from 1-9, instead it has a few buttons that also function as shortcuts, but after a while you get used to it... The menu has many settings and customizations... In terms of connectivity, it has wi-fi, 3 HDMI ports, 1 usb port, 1 LAN and another Common Interface port for input of a card. It connected fine with my xiaomi mobile with cast and mirroring... In terms of gaming or connecting to a computer, I have no opinion, but I think it will work fine there too... Overall, I am completely satisfied with the purchase even though I was also looking at a newer model for '22, but I saw the positive comments and ended up with this one... If someone is looking for a good and modern smart tv in 43" with very good image, not expensive with all the latest available applications, then this is the most value for money choice and I recommend it without reservation! I bought it from a large department store during the sales period, I also recommend extending the warranty to 5 years to be covered for any eventuality! I hope it will be worth the money like my previous Samsung... Have a good time watching TV!

On the first day I opened it, a movie played normally on Netflix and then it broke down after a few hours (possibly a short circuit). Samsung has not made a decision to approve the replacement for almost 10 days. The company's technician came and confirmed the damage for several days and for some inexplicable reason I have not yet found my right. I really don't know what's going wrong with this company...

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  We placed it in military service for daily use. After some time, it showed shadows in various spots on the panel. A technician from the dealership told us that it was due to dust or soot from candles or fireplaces entering the television. Fortunately, it is under warranty and will be repaired.

  Update 15/1/25....the television returned from service, but the image improved by 30-40% as seen in the photo, even though the panel was replaced, as claimed by the dealership.

  Update 2 21/01.2025 After a phone call with Samsung's headquarters, we were informed that the television's image cannot be repaired to 100%!!!! "Televisions of this type have such problems"..."It is within the specifications set by Samsung"....and other such ridiculous excuses. In response to my question: "When it was new, how did it work perfectly and now it doesn't work since you changed the panel??" The answer was: "I don't know."!!!!!!!!!!!!! Obviously, they simply tried to clean the panel internally (since they were telling us about dust and soot!!!!!!!) and did not do a proper job, or if the panel was indeed replaced, they installed some used or defective part. Finally, we requested a product replacement since it cannot be repaired, but of course, they refused since "The image is within the specifications set by Samsung"!!!!! What don't you understand!!!!!

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  After a year of mild use, I have to say the following. I bought this television for 330 euros because at this price, there was nothing better. Let's start with the positives. Very good sound, I never had any issues, it's crystal clear and the volume goes up very high. The remote is simple with few buttons, so you never get confused. The picture is very good when showing something bright. Now let's move on to the negatives: its blacks are unacceptable, and I don't have particular demands. At the price I got it, of course, you can't expect anything better. The viewing angle is so-so... you see the colors nicely as long as you are directly in front, but the more sideways you sit, the colors start to fade. Not to the level where you can't watch a movie, just that you don't have the same beautiful experience as when sitting directly in front. You feel like you're missing something... and indeed, you miss the beautiful colors. The menu sometimes lags, meaning you press something and there's a delay of a few seconds. This usually happens when I have turned it off from the plug and go to turn it on for the first time. As long as it stays plugged in and I just turn off the TV, it's fine (it might freeze a bit, but okay, nothing tragic). In the settings, I was a bit disappointed because I expected to have more options like the LG television of a friend who bought it for 600 euros. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the same range of options for either the picture or the sound. I admit I was quite disappointed there, but again, it's silly to compare a television worth 300 and 600 euros. Different category... IN THE END, if you are looking for a simple television without particular demands that you won't watch often and just want to have a satisfactory experience when you sit down to watch something, it's fine. If you are looking for a television for daily use, do yourself a favor and spend a bit more so you can see better blacks, more vibrant colors, not have it freeze, and of course, have more settings. Personally, I wouldn't spend more than 400 euros for this specific one, but if you find it around 300, I think it's a very good choice. (Nowadays, for a simple low-budget smartphone, you need at least 150-200; if with 300 you get a 43-inch television, I don't think you expect to have bought something super perfect. So it's fine.)

  This review is about the diagonal: 50 "

  It has been a problem for me from the beginning, it freezes and does whatever it wants, it doesn't turn on, it doesn't turn off, it has no sound, it doesn't change channels. I took it to the service twice within the warranty period, they told me they changed the motherboard but unfortunately the problem remained and the Samsung dealership does not replace it for me.

  I have had this specific television for almost a year and a half and it has not given me any problems so far. It has been used for several hours in gaming, movies, and videos and it has not struggled or had any issues.

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  Because I saw that this particular TV has received several negative reviews, I decided to share my opinion as well because I happen to have this TV for almost 3 years and so far it hasn't given me any problems, at least on its own, although I saw that others had their panel burned twice and displayed black marks. The truth is that it has also shown 2 black lines on my TV, one on the right side and one on the left, but they are barely noticeable and don't affect the overall image. However, they are more noticeable when the TV mainly displays monotonous colors like white, which happened because the panel had a slight impact, which wasn't very strong. I mention this mainly because those who are not aware should consider that panels in new TVs are extremely sensitive and one should be very careful because it is very easy to cause even the slightest damage to the panel, especially when the TV is going to be mounted on a wall. I researched the issue and found out that there are much worse cases than mine, so I am lucky that mine is not in worse condition. I asked a technician and he told me that it's not worth changing the panel because I would have to pay around 200 euros + VAT + the cost of one hour of labor, so I will leave it as it is for now and use it until it lasts. Personally, I am satisfied with this TV mainly because it has never had any problems on its own, but I also agree with some people who mentioned that it has a slightly slow response in the menu and when changing channels. However, it doesn't bother me much because I mainly use the TV for gaming and rarely switch channels. For someone who frequently switches channels, I believe this could be a problem. As for the sound, it has good sound quality for general TV use, such as Netflix, YouTube, and channels, but for gaming, it doesn't have the best sound, especially for someone like me who primarily uses it for gaming. It's better to use headphones, as I do. However, if someone just wants it for more casual gaming, they won't have any particular problem. In conclusion, I give it a rating of 4 out of 5 stars because this TV has a slightly slow response in the menu and when changing channels, and the sound quality is mediocre for good gaming. However, the overall sound is good for basic TV functions, but as I mentioned before, for my own requirements, this TV is suitable and I believe I am lucky that it has served me well from the beginning. It's a shame about the panel issue because it is a nice TV with great colors, and the damage from the impact on the panel is minor, so I will keep it until it lasts. Finally, I should mention that I have the 43-inch model. I hope I helped with my review and I apologize for the long text, but I wanted to share my entire experience with this TV.

  I give it 3 stars because I have been using it for only 2 months and it sticks incredibly in the menu or when updating programs or changing channels. Also, I was trying to change channels and couldn't find it at all. Not user-friendly menu at all.

  Only in dynamic image allows impressive colors. The remote control is minimal, good for some, bad for others. I struggle to classify the order of channels, something that Digea has them scrambled and not hierarchically organized

  As other users have mentioned, the screen burned out after 2 years and something, after the warranty expired of course. The cost of repair is around 320€, which is the same as buying a new one. The company obviously doesn't take any responsibility once the warranty is over and unfortunately the customer service was terrible. Never again Samsung, stay away from these specific TVs, it's not worth spending 400-500 euros for 2 years. Tragic customer experience.

  Bought a 55-inch and before the warranty expired, my screen burned out. They replaced it with great difficulty and after 8 months, it's doing the same thing again, about to burn out. Unacceptable from a company named Samsung, never again. Money wasted, we bought it thinking it was good but it's not worth it

  For its price, it is easily the best out there! The two negatives are that the sound is present on all TVs and that I can't connect Bluetooth headphones or other devices. Other than that, the screen is fantastic for movies and even channels, it is fast, and it receives updates every 2 or maybe 3 months, which helps with its smooth operation!

  While playing normally, suddenly it started losing its image. I have had it for less than three years. The technician who came told us that the motherboard broke and the LEDs burned out. The cost is around €200, which is not worth it!

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  After a lot of research, I ended up with this television, which was placed in a 10 sqm bedroom right in front of the bed. The purchase was made yesterday on 18/05/2023 and it was immediately installed on the wall. Following the instructions, I tried to set it up using my mobile phone (since it showed me this option). I simply downloaded the Samsung app, which I didn't have installed on my phone, but for some reason, the first attempt was not completed. Maybe it didn't connect properly to the internet. With the second attempt, everything went as it should and the TV started normally with the channels automatically found without me doing anything (this impressed me and I liked it). I immediately checked YouTube (to see if the connection was OK) and connected to Netflix. I quickly looked through the manual for the remote control, which is quite concise and not immediately understandable how it works. Finally, we watched a series on Netflix for testing.
  Below are my initial comments:

  Positives:
  - Very clear picture and vibrant colors. Of course, my other TV is 13 years old and not LED. Nevertheless, I have obviously seen modern LED TVs in other houses, so comparing and considering its cost, it is very good. Essentially, for an average user who wants to watch movies, Netflix, etc., it is perfect.
  - Sound. There are many comments about the poor sound performance. Again, I had no complaints. We watched a series on Netflix with the sound at about 60% of the maximum and it was perfect. I don't know what everyone has in mind when watching TV at home... Maybe they want the neighbors to hear as well. But really, in a room of a house, the sound provided by the TV is fine. If someone wants to watch on the balcony or in their yard and be at a distance of 6-7 meters, then I don't know, maybe the sound is not good.

  Negatives (a little):
  - Build quality is not the highest. When you hold it to hang it on the wall, you feel like you have to be very careful. It looks nice, but the plastics could be of better quality. Personally, it doesn't bother me because I hung it on the wall and it will stay there without anyone touching it again.
  - The remote control is... different from the usual ones we know, it is minimalist. It definitely requires getting used to, but I think once you learn it, it will be very convenient. There is also the option of controlling the TV through the app on the mobile phone. I tried that too, and it seems more user-friendly than the remote control initially. Perhaps because it is clearer what each button does. However, this issue doesn't bother me either.

  Conclusion:
  I am very satisfied with my choice, even though there were quite a few negative comments and I was hesitant. Obviously, there were equally many, if not more, positive comments! :) I didn't expect anything more and nothing disappointed me from the first use-test of the TV. If it withstands the test of time, then it deserves 6 stars instead of 5 because it costs just over 300 euros and has an impressive picture, vibrant colors, and very good sound!

  Purchased on 14/12/2022, operated satisfactorily for four months as a living room television (without gaming, hard drive, USB, etc.), plugged into a voltage stabilizer, until it suddenly presented a light black vertical line in the middle of the screen. Samsung was notified via email and, after a phone call, they picked it up today for inspection/repair.

  For its price, it's perfect for everyday use! Netflix is flawless, and so is YouTube. I haven't watched any sports on it yet, so I can't say. I would have expected slightly better sound quality.

  This review is about the diagonal: 50 "

  After 4 months of use, I can say that it is definitely value for money. The sound is good for a living room, not for parties of course. The picture is exceptional, and on the ps5 (and not only) it automatically finds the best settings. It doesn't creak, it seems reliable but its menu is a bit slow. If I had invested 200€ more, I would have gotten an Android equivalent instead of Tizen, but given that I have a TV box, I am covered. One more detail that I knew before buying it is that it does not support Chromecast on its own (which I have solved with the TV box, so it doesn't personally bother me).

  On the downside, I will say the following. Specifically on YouTube, it downloads at a maximum of 5mbps, resulting in lag on UHD videos. Personally, I have connected a TV box + ps5, so I play them from there and I have no issues. It may be corrected in the future with a TV or YouTube app upgrade.

  In conclusion, I will say once again that with a TV box, it becomes a star for the 370€ I bought it for.

  A very good choice for her money. Once you get used to the remote, you won't change it, it's very user-friendly. Very powerful sound, which I didn't expect. Also, the picture is wonderful. I recommend it.

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  This particular TV was purchased for room use and is a great value for someone who wants good picture quality on YouTube and Netflix with color and brightness enhancement without spending too much. The picture is very close to the QLED I have in the living room. NOTE: THE ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION IS ENABLED BY FACTORY SETTINGS THAT MAKE THE IMAGE LOSE ITS VIVIDNESS. IT IS ADVISABLE TO GO TO THE ENERGY SAVING SETTINGS AND DISABLE IT TOGETHER WITH THE REDUCTION OF BRIGHTNESS TO ENJOY THE IMAGE TO THE FULLEST. As for the sound, it's good but lacks bass. It has other features that are not as good as the QLED TV in the living room, but for the money the TV costs, the sound is perfect. I've seen TVs in this price range with much worse sound, but of course, for anyone who wants better sound, the problem can be solved with a soundbar.

  It's not worth the money at all because for 200 euros more, you can get the equivalent Q60 which has infinitely better picture quality. Only if you have a very limited budget, but even then, save up that extra 200 euros... it's worth it! Those who give it 4-5 stars unfortunately haven't seen it playing next to other TVs. A visit to a store will be enough! Also, the viewing angle is very limited, only from the center!

  This review is about the diagonal: 43 "

  I got it for the bedroom... in the living room I have the same one in 55" but from 2019 while the one I got is from 2021. They are the same but with a better menu to adjust the image as you like, a better remote control that is more minimal and easy to use. The real advantage is in the settings it has for the image. I got it because I have the same one and I know how it is, but it turned out to be better than the one in the living room.
