I have several TV's in the house and have replaced several TV's over the past couple of years. My most recent purchase was the Samsung LED Smart TV which has been a very good purchase. I have had the TV a bit over a year now and have not had any problems. The sound is very good as is the picture. The Smart TV features have been great with built in apps for YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime and more. I have added additional apps such as Sirius Radio which allows me to stream music through the house. The only complaint that I have is that the built in apps are sometimes slow to load and update. It is also a bit clunky trying to do searches with the onscreen keyboard.

I have a Samsung 65 inch series 7 HD Smart TV. It's a fantastic TV, it has the best picture I could find. It comes with a Smart Hub remote and a regular remote, but the best part of the TV is it's user friendly. I have a 47 inch LG in my bedroom, a 60 Sharp Aquos in my family room, and a 46 Sony Bravada in my breakfast room and the Samsung in my office is so much better than all of them, not the size but the quality. I bought the Samsung last but I wished I had bought it first because I would have only Samsung TV's if I had.

Model UE32H5000 LED Full HD. A very good relatively cheap 32" TV. Works perfectly with crisp pictures, sound is a little better than rivals having 2x10 watt speakers rather than the usual 2x6 watts. It was easy to set up with a good selection of choices for both sound and picture settings. I am on a limited income so this was the perfect choice for me. Would I buy another Samsung? Most definitely.

Have a Samsung 55" Motion 120 non-Smart TV. The set has great color. The colors are both accurate but also smooth. There is no shearing, tearing, noise, gradations or bleed. It does everything a Big Screen TV should do - WORK! It makes no noise, but like all TV's I have owned. The colors are wrong from the factory. I have found that it usually takes some detailed tweaking to get the color just right.

I am not sure the model but I have a Samsung plasma 50 inch. It was purchased several years ago around 2004 I believe. It has been going strong ever since and still has a really nice picture with no visible dead pixels. It has been moved several times from residence to residence during that period as well. There was a period when the bottom half of the screen would go black for maybe 5-10 seconds and then come back. This was very seldom and would happen randomly. However it hasn't done this in years. The only real issue I have with it is an audible humming that is noticeable when the TV is on and the volume is turned all the way down and it's quiet in the house. As I rarely have my TV on without the volume, this has certainly not been much of an issue but it would be nice if this noise was not present.

Have 3 TVs - 2 are Samsung, 1 is an Insignia (smallest - about 20 in.). First purchased was a Samsung 32" (5 yrs. ago). Had it in our great room; no problems yet. Moved it to our bedroom about 2 yrs. ago. Purchased a 42" Samsung. Had it 2 yrs. - screen developed a darkened area about a year after purchasing. Picture completely gone in 2 yrs. Although Samsung gave us a discount on the same model new one and a 5 year extended warranty (cost $79.95), it cost us over $700 to replace and have new one installed. They did remove the old one without charging. 2yrs. for a TV is lousy in my mind. Pointed out that they didn't owe us anything. Not very consumer friendly.

I have had (and still have) many Samsung TVs. From a 720 32 in to my current 40 in 1080 120htz, 47 3D TV 1080 p 240 htz, and my 60 in 3D TV 1080 p and 240 htz. They make you feel like you are part of the studio audience since they are so clear. They all have internet access and can handle network storage media so there is NOTHING I can not watch on any TV I own. I don't have to worry about getting up to look for my movies or TV to watch, I can just browse my network drives and play from the devices, directly. Not to mention Netflix, YouTube, and any other internet apps you want to use. Plus, all the remotes work with all the TVs so you can play jokes and turn off other TVs in the house without anyone knowing what is going on... good times.

I recently had a 5 star local technician try to repair my Samsung TV. The problem is with the Inverters. Although I have audio, I have no picture and the sides of the screen chassis became very hot to the touch. He informed me that he could order the part from Samsung but because of the construction of this Samsung TV there is a good chance it can't be fixed. And there would be a hefty restocking fee. Bottom line, don't buy a Samsung. They have taken shortcuts in manufacturing their boards and they don't hold up. And many of these TV's have failed and Samsung has very bad customer support.
So, I called Samsung Customer Support and the person that I spoke with didn't even get the drift of what I was telling her. She stated, "We have no reports of this problem." WRONG!!! Reading reviews from other customers, there have been many failed TV's with the same issue. I wanted to know how much a Inverter part would cost me. She said, "She doesn't have that information; you would have to get that from a repair person."
Well, that's stupid. My repair person checked on a Samsung site for the part and price. It was apparent that she was just putting me off. And I told her so and many people have posted problems with their customer care. My repair person was correct. I will never buy another Samsung TV or other product. More expensive than other TV's and truly junk. So, I have to put a fairly new TV, out of warranty out on the curb for junk. Samsung, you should be truly ashamed of your customer service and bad product. This is why their stock has hit the skids and is in the toilet.

I ask rep to make sure. She confirms it is.
I get call two days later. The rep tells me the part is not in... grrrr... Reschedule a week later Oct 9. Get a call in AM, they ordered wrong part. I call Samsung that evening... ask for refund or even exchange. Get a ticket number... told the refund dept will call me Monday Oct 12 or Tuesday Oct 13 to let me know if I'm eligible for refund.

I agree with the person's review of Uta of Winnebago, IL on Oct. 7, 2015 on this website. When will there be another class action lawsuit against Samsung LED television for having t.v.s reboot themselves? I've own my Samsung t.v. UN46EH5300F since 11/8/2012. In the last several months, my t.v. has been rebooting itself just as reported in the LAST class action lawsuit. I contacted Samsung and when I asked for their HQs address, the agent stated "he isn't privy to giving out the address" so I asked to speak to his supervisor, same answer and the supervisor asked "Why are you going to file a complaint? I said "yes."
I didn't get their HQs address but the California Department of Consumer Affairs gave me an address. Unfortunately, the t.v. is out of warranty, convenient, just like the people who were involved in the last class action lawsuit. As far as I am concerned, anyone raving about Samsung must be working for them or have someone they know that works for them. I will never buy a Samsung t.v. again.

Purchased TV in 2010... starting acting weird in 2011... could not turn tv off or it took hours to come back on... I was okay with that until now. TV then started shutting off by itself and would take hours to come on. Now, it's 2015 and only has sound and a black screen. If I attach a standard cable box, tv works okay except I can't turn it off because it flickers on and off until it decides to come on. If I attach HDMI Cable box, it doesn't ever come back on. Does anyone else have this same problem? They want $68.99 just to look to see what is wrong but from reading all these reviews there is a problem originating at Samsung. We all are experiencing the same issues with our TV's. Sounds like we need to do a class action lawsuit because Samsung feels it is our problem and not theirs. There is too many of us with the same issues.

We have two Samsung televisions, one 8000-series and one 6000-series. We had one issue in the five years we've owned the 8000. The power supply malfunctioned just over a year after purchase. However, Samsung support did not leave us with an expensive living room decoration, and even though the warranty had expired, Samsung fixed the problem at no cost to us. The 6000 is four years old and has not had a single problem. The images are clear and vibrant, there is no jitter, and the available apps have added value to the viewing experience. These are thin flat-screen televisions and not overly heavy, which make placing and moving them very easy. The remote is silver, making it easy to find in our living room.
The only drawback I have so far encountered is there is no way (apparent to me) to manually install an app. For example, my 8000-series is older and the older YouTube app is no longer updated. There is no way for me to upload the newer app version that my 6000-series has that is still updated. I'm sure a more tech-savvy person could find a way to do this, but I need a plug-and-play version. Also, I would like to see an easier way to connect smartphones with mirroring capability, not just music and video sharing.

The TV I have now is fairly new. I just bought it about 4 months ago. It is a Samsung 4K UHDTV 55". The UHD is wonderful although it took me a while to get used to it. It doesn't look the same as the HDTV, but the images are REALLY clear and you do kind of feel like you are right there. It's kind of like the difference between watching a show that uses film as compared to video. The picture is so much more colorful and detailed, especially if you compare it side by side with a 1080p. I bought the Samsung TV because I also own a Galaxy S4 smartphone and I love the quality of pictures you can take with their camera.

Because nothing worked the last person I chatted with online said I needed to ask for a technician to come and fix the TV, so I did online, and all I got was an email asking me to call them back at tech support. When I did the person that responded was so condescending and when I explained that everything he was mentioning I had already done with tech support he said that I was being sarcastic.
What does he expect when no one is helping? And on top of that they are repeating themselves over and over. So frustrated, annoyed and disappointed not only with the TV but with the brand, customer service and the whole system in general. This TV even when working, was never user-friendly. What a waste of money. At some point, the person I was talking to pretty much didn't let me talk and when I asked to be transferred to someone else he said I needed to call back and start over.

We have several television sets, Sony, LG, Toshiba, and Samsung. Of all our sets we prefer Samsung which we own 3 of because of the picture quality, ease of use, and the quality tuners used. We live in Miami where it rains a lot and get our programming off the air because broadcast TV is better quality than either satellite or cable (including ATT Uverse). Heavy rain often causes my LG and both my wife's Toshiba and Sony to lose the signal, but my son's Samsung and the large Samsung in the FL room never lose reception. The picture quality of the Sony as well as the Toshiba is good, especially the bright Toshiba but both our Samsungs beat the others in the quality of both video and audio which together with the great tuners makes the Samsung the only brand of TV set I'd consider purchasing.

This television is a smart tv model number un32f6300af. I have it for about 3 years and have been very satisfied so far. The picture is clear and sharp. I have other televisions in the house and this is the best picture quality of all of them. Having a smart television is a very convenient way to access the internet. The reason that I bought a Samsung to begin with was because my daughter had one and I always noticed how good her picture looked. I would definitely recommend this television to family and friends.

I bought a 40 inch SAMSUNG LED TV sometime in 2011. The model no. is UA40D5000PR. Then just a few months after the lapse of its 1 year warranty period, it began to have picture quality issues just a few months. (I did not avail of the extended warranty since I believe in the brand, being a Samsung, that is.) The problem started as a small blackish distortion in the picture from the upper left corner. Then it gradually progressed until it now affects almost 80% of the total screen area. Since the warranty period already elapsed, I could not claim for a free service or replacement.
Product handling is not an issue for me since I am not a heavy tv user since I was working at the time and is usually at home on weekdays. I also bought an AVR together with the TV to protect it from power fluctuations and surges since I am aware these kind of TVs are very sensitive to power fluctuations. I did not pursue further repairs due to the cost. The repairman estimated it to take around 18-20 thousand pesos which is more than buying a new tv set.
What infuriates me further is knowing from browsing the internet and youtube of posts pertaining to similar models having the same problem also occurring a little after the warranty period. This evidently proves of a defective product model/production batch that should have been recalled and replaced by SAMSUNG as their social responsibility to their clients. I have another tv which is a Sony Bravia which is now more than 10 years with us but still working fine and have not manifested any defect at all. Right now, I will definitely not be buying a SAMSUNG TV ever!!!

Did you know we are on the net at Samsung.com/us./me/, who gives a flying crap message that repeats every 4 seconds. I am not exaggerating, every 4 seconds throughout the hour you have to spend waiting on someone, who then asks you the same questions on your product, to then be transferred again and again to repeat the same information, and then to be cut off, not 1 time, but 3 freaking times. I spent the last 2 hours dealing with the inane crap. Will never buy another Samsung component again, and will return any given to me. NO MORE, NEVER AGAIN.

I bought a 40 inch Samsung LED TV (model UA40D5500, serial no. 20013ZEB600469N) about three years ago, together with a Blu-ray DVD player for about Rs. 60000, because I was impressed with the picture quality. Little did I know what I was getting into. The Blu-ray went bad in a few months. Every time they fixed it, it would go bad again in a couple of months. The repairman himself was embarrassed. Soon the warranty was over and they demanded a repair charge almost equal to the price of a new unit. So I had to throw it. Next, the speakers went bad. The repair guy demanded Rs. 3500. Fresh from my DVD player experience, I decided to replace it with computer speakers (my friend had the same problem with his Samsung TV, and this was his solution). Now, the TV itself has gone bad!
I complained eight days ago, but it's still lying lifeless, much to the dismay of my younger son. On the fourth day, a repairman came and took Rs. 2000 as advance for some parts (which according to him would finally cost me Rs. 10,000). I gave the money but he never came back again. I called their toll free number and demanded to speak with a manager. Perhaps I was a little irate, so I was promptly given the "interminable hold" treatment. Lesson: Stay away from Samsung, at least as far as their LED TVs are concerned.

Just to be clear, I did not purchase my 40" Samsung from Amazon but I need to let the world know my experience. My family is not rich. We saved up for a Samsung LCD because of many recommendations. The tv worked fine for over 2 years when all of a sudden it began power cycling, turning on and off forever. After a bit of research I found that Samsung had lost a class action suit for using sub par parts. Thinking I could fix the tv myself I ordered the replacement parts with capacitors and plugged it all in and put the tv back together. This did not work. It turns out that my motherboard had gone bad.
Thinking Samsung would help me, I wrote to customer service. They told me to call customer service. Well that didn't go as hoped. They could have cared less that I spent over $700 on their product which failed before it's 3rd year. They told me to call parts and service, which I did. They didn't care either. I asked them if I could purchase a motherboard and they told me no. I'll tell you all this, I will NEVER support this company or give them my family's hard earned money again. This company is an overgrown pathetic joke which does not stand behind their product's quality. This FACT makes it impossible to whip out another stack of cash for crap that they don't stand behind.

It has been a horrible experience with my Samsung Smart tv. It's not a brand new model but I called Samsung about my tv not having YouTube and they said other models do not as well. Even though the box it comes in has it advertised! They told me some come with it and some don't, it's a 50/50 chance so that is why they can advertise it. If that's not enough my Netflix never works. I thought it was my internet or Netflix.
What got me to write this review is that every 5 minutes or so my network would disconnect from my tv. Wireless or wired, didn't matter. Samsung said it's because I need an update done. I told them that when I go to update there are no new updates available. They said it's because the new update in fact not available, on the tv yet. So I can't have anything that uses the internet until that update comes out and they have no idea when that will be. BUT I can go to their website via computer (and I bet via PC!) and upload the update to a USB and then plug it into my tv and download it that way.
I don't have a computer at the moment nor do I have a USB drive. I know that's strange. But there has got to be others out there like me. Or people that think this is absurd! I said, so I paid all this money and now my tv is just a regular tv? And you know what? I had to go out and buy Google Chrome in order to have YouTube and other apps that Samsung doesn't offer. So if you are thinking about buying a smart tv Do NOT buy a Samsung! Or just buy the extras that make it "Smart". Samsung Smart tvs are secretly dumb but you don't know it until you get it home.

My 50-inch Samsung TV broke down twice during its 3 year warranty period. The second breakdown was months before the end of the warranty period. Samsung informed me that they have stopped manufacturing 50 inch LED panels. After weeks of haggling, they said they managed to find one panel. Given their initial statement that they did not have such panels, I was leery and asked for some form of warranty on this panel, which they might have cannibalized from some old TV. I spent weeks making multiple calls to Samsung. At each call, I was promised a callback, but no return call was received.
When I finally managed to track down the service supervisor, he gave me multiple versions of the coverage Samsung would give on the panel. So I requested an email confirming our conversation, and I managed to pin him down to a date that I could expect his email. He agreed, but the email never came. Two issues arise from my experience. First, when Samsung sells a TV they do not assume any responsibility to continue to provide parts, even at a cost, to customers for a reasonable period of time. Second, the dozens of calls I had to make to elicit a return call from them goes far beyond the now typical run around we get from vendors. Even promises of return calls at a specific date and time mean nothing to Samsung.

Samsung lined up Golden In-Home Service, Inc. to come fix the television. They showed up on 9/14/15 and changed a part in the television which did not fix the problem, so they schedule a second day to come repair the television. On 9/17/15 they show up and change another part and this does not fix the problem, so he tells my fiancee he will need to take the television and proceeds to take the television out the house and instead of closing the door behind him or asking my fiancee to close the door, one of my cats nearly escapes!
After I find out the news, I call Samsung and tell them I'm unsatisfied with the technician they sent over. They relay the message to the technician and he brought the television back to my home and he proceeds to rant that he hates working on Samsung televisions. I call Best Buy where I bought the television after I found out this news and they tell me just bring the television in and we can replace it. Well I go ride to Best Buy to see what my options will since this model is no longer available and the supervisor tells me, "We can't just replace it, we will have to send someone to repair it and if they can't fix it then we will let you switch televisions, but you'll have to buy a warranty to cover it or you can continue to deal with Samsung." They also apologize for the miscommunication between the sales person not knowing the Best Buy policy.
I call Samsung to line up for another service to come to my house to fix the television since Golden In-Home Service, failed. I call Sunday to verify that I will be getting a call on Monday from a service company and somehow they still wanted to send Golden In-Home Service to repair a television they could not fix. I'm at the point where I just want Samsung to replace the television for something with the same specs or if I have to use the Geek Squad Protection. I'm not going back with Samsung.

Unfortunately for me, I was not aware of this as my TV was working just fine until the clicking started (we referred to it as a death rattle now). It was slowly progressing longer and longer until the TV would turn on. When it reach 20 mins I started looking into what was happening and discovered I was one of many that had the issue. It kept turning on but within a few days it took 45 mins, then we let it go the next day for 5.5 hrs... I pulled the plug, it was time. So, I called customer service hoping I could at least get the part sent to me. Well unfortunately the first person who said they could transfer me to parts disconnected me in the process.
So, I called right back, got a second person. This time was told that at my expense they could send out a service tech to look at it. I told them that I would just want the part because I don't want to pay for their poor product anymore than I already had and I had a friend who could possibly do the repair for me if I had the right part. He is not a TV guy but works on computer, so in the right ball park at least. THIS TIME, I was told there is nowhere to transfer me and all parts are handled online. He placed me on hold and came back stating that the part (capacitor) is no longer listed as one of their carried items. I again asked to be transferred to another department and said there was nothing he could do.
So either the other guy hung up on purpose or this guy was an idiot... I can believe either scenario! I never knew to look for a recall 3 years ago for a working TV, but I guess we are supposed to be mind readers. So NEVER again will I buy a Samsung product.

I don't have time to dig up and submit my receipts right now... but I do have them and I do own this awful products. MY ADVICE... DO NOT BUY ANY SAMSUNG PRODUCT... EVER. THEY DO NOT LAST.

The bottom left corner of my tv gets really hot and there's a white blur that spreads from that corner across half of my tv. I just purchased this tv last November and have not had it for a year yet.

I bought a 50" model UN50FUN50F6400AFXZA so one day which was about 9 months later I turn tv on which I paid 1,050 for tv - the most I've ever paid for a tv - took me a year to save up. I paid for insurance even though has 3 yr limited warranty. Now due to best buy kid that put it on the receipt but he did not charge me for the insurance best buy will not cover it. So I call Samsung and they say that is crazy and look into it. They ask me to plug the tv in which I unplugged immediately so they get on the screen and the small discolored part on upper left screen now. After they are done turned the entire screen like that discoloration. They admit we are not at fault and say a service guy will call. He did and set up time to come by.
The day before after he ordered the part Samsung tells him they now are not paying for it. He was as pissed as me. He already bought the part. I asked him what it would cost if I paid... 980.00 that's 70.00 less than I paid originally. Are you crazy Samsung? My whole family had Samsung phones, tvs, tablets, etc. I threw it all away. I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER Samsung PRODUCT OR MY FAMILY OR FREINDS. I will now dedicate my life to showing everyone how they are LIARS. I have emails from their only service guy on CAPE COD... oh Samsung states "I'm sorry we don't know what happened" and plays stupid and now and are very rude and hang up. I look online, I'm not the only one this has happened to. So I'm hoping they fix or I'm rounding up enough people to start a class action vs Samsung. Thank You.

It is just less than 2 years and this So called Smart TV fails 3 times. With all the Warranty confusions I was able to repair so far. But my question is a customer pays close 1400 bucks and get a Product which is supposed to the best in class etc and does not work well even for few years. This 7500 Samsung Series is a disaster. I see so many other having the same complaint. It is a defective product. I got it repaired just 7 months back and the same problem has cropped up. TV shuts on and off on itself and then there are colored lines coming up and now TV has become useless. Unbelievable that the quality of these products is actually very low.

Purchased 60" Samsung Smart / 3D LED TV UN60ES8000 and used only twice a week for a few hours or two. The TV a few months ago began to show vertical lines of different colors then completely cover the screen - seconds later forcing the TV into an automatic reboot cycle. The cycle could not be stopped cause after it boots it displays the Samsung logo... shows the vertical colored lines covering the screen completely and then the cycle happens again - all lasting a total of about 15 seconds. The cycle will not stop until the TV is physically disconnected from the power as the remote becomes completely useless. I contacted Samsung with warranty time and got it fixed over the phone with a factory reboot.
Problem came up a few months later after my warranty had ended and Samsung said they would not help me at all unless I paid for the repair... which I feel is unfair since this is an issue that can be seen throughout the web from many owners of Samsung TV's. The TV now is useless and both remotes are failing to work... one completely and one with little life left. The TV can run for about 15 min after being unplugged for a few hours but then after those initial 15 min in it will display the lines and then begin the boot cycle.
The TV being out of warranty is fine and understandable but not for an issue that MANY other customers have experienced and are still now. Samsung is not owning up to their faulty products and not willing to compensate for the hundreds to even thousands of people on the same page. The TV has now formed a horizontal black line across the left side of the screen after a minute of 2 of that boot loop cycle... This line is there even during those 15 min of working time the TV can have at best.

I bought this TV 2 years ago. Last October, the picture began cutting out and I got the Samsung Smart TV logo appearing on my screen. Since October, I have contacted Samsung 6 times. Each time, I got ridiculous answers such as "It was a problem when it was set up at the store" (I bought it thru Amazon). Another rep blamed DIRECTV (my satellite provider) though there was nothing with the dish or the receiver. I updated the Firmware, which resolved the issue for several months. On the 6th try, I got someone who knows these TVs well. I explained the problem, and he said it was an issue inside the TV with the power cycle function. He basically said to me, "tough **."
The product went out of warranty in August 2014 (it worked fine for 14 months), so I am faced with paying for the repair, or buying a one-year warranty for $400 that would cover this repair and any work over the next year. I find it unconscionable that Samsung would have more fork over more money after I paid $800 for the TV. It doesn't understand that if they stepped up, I would buy another Samsung product because they did the right thing. But this way, it will be a cold day in hell before I buy another Samsung product. The question: Would I be better off taking the TV to a repair place? These are computers, not cathode-ray tubes, and I can't imagine the work would be cheap.

The Samsung Curved HD TV sucks!! My husband and I bought this TV on 9/21/2014, it works fine for the first 4/5 months; then we started to have problems. The TV was turning ON/OFF by itself, we called Samsung Customer Service and they remotely fix the problem, but that was temporarily. The TV continued doing the same thing, so they sent a technician who said that the power starter board was damaged and he replaced it with a new one. The TV worked fine for about 4 months, until recently it started doing the same thing, turning On/Off again. And here we go again, we called Samsung Customer Service to ask for the TV to be replaced since the warranty is still up and we bought a five year extended warranty, but they are telling us that their technician is the one who determines whether the TV needs to be replaced or not. So again, they are sending a technician over.
I am certain that they are going to keep sending the repair guy until the warranty is over, then we will be stuck with a defective TV. This is unacceptable, we spend over $2,000 for a TV that had only give us headaches. We had owned TVs that lasted at least 10 years and never had this types of issues. Worse decision ever was to replace our 10 years old 52" Sony Bravia with a new Samsung Curved TV. Piece of crap.

I purchased a Samsung 60" Smart TV model UN60H6350AFXZA in February of 2015. By June of 2015 I started having problems with it. Apps wouldn't load, it would turn on and off on its own and it had developed a big black box with lines down one side of the screen. I contacted Samsung, they asked me to send in pictures of the tv which I did. Their service center determined it was an internal cracked panel, they ordered the part and sent someone out to repair it. This was all covered by warranty. When the technician came to my home with the replacement part to do the repair he rubbed his fingers all over the screen and then turned the tv on. The crack had spread, this was a result of him applying pressure to the screen. Now Samsung is refusing to fix the tv because they are claiming physical damage even though in the pictures I took there is no point of impact.
When I call customer service to complain they told me no repair was ever scheduled and no parts were ever ordered and the technician was sent to my home only to take pictures, not to do repairs. I explained that I have several voicemails from their repair center stating otherwise but they are still saying physical damage based upon pictures taken two weeks after I first contacted Samsung and after their technician pressed on the tv screen. The last time I contacted escalated customer relation I was told once they make a ruling, it cannot be changed. Well the first ruling was covered by warranty so why isn't my television repaired yet? I also don't understand how the other issues I was having with the television would be a result of physical damage. Those things were never addressed.
This whole thing has been a nightmare and I will never purchase another Samsung product again. They don't stand behind their faulty products and they are extremely dishonest. If anyone else is going through similar issues with them document everything you can because they will flat out deny everything just so they don't have to do the repair. I am now looking into taking legal action against them.

It is a 55", model #un55eh6000/ the TV of my dreams. Things were fine until the warranty went out and the extended warranty purchased went out. The TV took more and more time to turn on, 3, 5, 15, 20, ? minutes. The last time it was turned off it took 24 HOURS just out of the blue it came back on. I called Samsung. While being treated politely, no one acknowledged this as a continuing problem, even after speaking to 4 people. I was told it had been settled and my TV was not part of it. Keep in mind it is the exact issue of the TVs in the class action lawsuit. However, I was offered an emergency repair warranty for an additional year for only $457.00 at which time I told the lady as politely as I could that this was a rip off and I thought she knew it.

I placed an order online for a 55" JS9000 Samsung TV for $1,899. Within an hour after I made the purchase, I received a call with them telling me the 2% coupon discount is only good for payments by check or wire transfer, which I found very odd but it was about a $60 savings, not a deal breaker. The rep went on to tell me that there was a better "version" of the TV for $2,389 which included a 10-bit screen instead of an 8-bit screen. He took $100 off as well.
I called back after a bit of research and didn't see any difference between the 2 TVs. He said there are versions built for dept stores and direct from Samsung. I'm familiar with this but still couldn't find anything on the internet, usually someone in the world normally posts something on the internet. I told him to cancel the order and he went on saying that there would be a $80 cancellation fee. I couldn't find this anywhere on their site. I am keeping the order since he reduced this yet another $100, which is cheaper than Amazon anyway. I will report back once I get the TV to possibly help others that might go through something similar.
BTW - they did have a different webpage for the "better" TV but the specs were identical with NO difference. When I confronted them, they simply said, "This was built in Mexico. I only make $28 commission on the sale so why would I kid you?" Hmm...not really convincing. The 2 versions of the JS9000 55" Samsung:**, **.
