Good value but Not built-in wifi We finally decided to move into the 21st Century and got rid of our CRT TV.I was undecided as to the need for ‘SMART’ or not. This was available on a lightning deal and I made the purchase.SET UPSetting up the stand was simple (need a philips screwdriver). The TV is nice and light.One of the things I struggled with was the ‘universal remote’ i.e. trying to connect the Samsung remote to work with my Sky Box. After much try, i finally saw something on a forum that you need to put the IR-receiver near the Sky box. once I did that it recognised the device. However, there are still limitations i.e. you can’t bring up the Sky planner with the Samsung remote, so you do still need your Sky remote. What you can do, however, is scroll through the channels (while watching one) to see what else is on. Or you can switch to another channel if you know what that channel number is.It also took me a while to figure out that you can switch off…
Absolutely love this TV I was a bit worried because of a few mixed reviews but when I looked closely at them people were comparing it to sets that cost much more which seems a little unfair..Set up was a doddle – even upgraded firmware as part of the process. The picture quality is far better than my previous Panasonic plasma TV and the sound quality the best I have heard on a TV (without external speakers). Some people have criticised the plastic which I see as a positive advantage – it is light enough for me to lift it into place single handed unlike my smaller Panasonic which really needed two people. Although light it looks and feels quite durable. As well as all the apps, catch up TV etc it also plays anything off my PC, phone or tablet – so far no matter what the file type. Start up is just a few seconds. My only criticism is that the manual is written for a range of TVs with things like “this may not be available on all models” scattered through it. I deplore this kind shortcut…
