Love the TV...But a helpful tip...
341575
I purchased this television from Costco and absolutely love it. So much so that I'm buying a second one to replace another TV that I bought. But I wanted to share a tip from a man standing behind me in the line who apparently worked in electronics.

Here's the Tip: if your TV was transported lying flat at any stage, then sit the TV upright when you get it home and do not hook it up for 3 or 4 hours. He said if you don't do that, you will be returning the TV.

When I bought the TV, I placed it in the cart standing upright and, since I have a big truck, I transported it home that way. So I had no issues. But I'm posting this review to potentially help others prevent set up and screen issues.

I love this TV!  I have been looking at this model since March '07 and bought it just after Christmas.  The only thing that I am disappointed about is that you can not use the PIP(picture in picture) from the same type of source.  That means you can't watch two different ball games at the same time.  For some reason the main source must be through the HDMI port and then the tuner.  That being said, the TV has a great picture and the built-in speakers sound really good.  The delivery company also got me the TV a week earlier than the expected delivery date.  They got it unpacked and set-up just like the white glove delivery notice states.  I would recommend this TV to anyone.

Got the M class 47 inch for our bedroom, fearing it may be a bit large.  Turned out perfect.  There is one problem though...the picture is so exceptional that I have almost forgotten the larger Sony Bravia in the great room.  WOW!  Combine that with the ease of the smart tv menu, and I am spending way too much time in the bedroom... For the wrong reasons.

Love the TV.  There are a few pain points.  But life isn't perfect...and neither is the TV...but issues seem manageable.

I am happy with connectivity and availability of extending tech such as Samsung TV apps/Smart Hub, Samsung Smart View IOS app 2.01, Samsung device mirroring, WI-DI, Bluetooth, AC WIFI, 5V USB connector for external hard drive(Seagate Goflex), ability to play MKV and MP4 files.

LOVE the remote.  Simple as it is...it does lots of heaving lifting.  And the remote is "universal".  I use it to control a Series 4 TIVO, Apple TV v4, OPPO Blue Ray Player.  It has a daringly simple design but it behaves well.  It is complementary to the Siri remote from ATV4.  It is an intelligent solution instead of a remote with 60+ buttons.  Good news is I replaced my lost remote for about $25 bucks.  That might be the best feature of all.  Having a keyboard would be convenient...but I can use an app or external Bluetooth keyboard for that.

Pain points.  This is a newer TV...they appear to be fine tuning the firmware.  I am fairly patient.  They seem to come monthly.  #2 Biggest pain, having to "reset" the TV several times to fix Smarthub issues such as Netflix hanging or Smart Hub User Interface loosing.  Good news is that setup is pretty quick.

Biggest Pain Point.  Since purchase, I have had trouble with HDMI 4 (ARC) port.  I was never able to get a 2015 Samsung soundbar working correctly with the ARC port.  The TV automatically changed sources back to HDMI 4 and whatever I had plugged into HDMI 4 port.  I had assumed issue was soundbar.  I tried a video device and found it also did the same thing.  Newest behavior is the HDMI 4 (ARC) port completely dead.  Hopefully a bad HDMI port was the cause of the entire issue I had.  Spoke to Samsung via "Live Chat" 3 times.  After a bevy of troubleshooting steps (including reset, firmware upgrade, unplug/replug power and one connect box), they are sending me a replacement "one connect" box.  Issue was a pain, process of finding problem was a pain, however, being able to swap a tiny external box instead of hauling an entire TV to a service center is WONDERFUL.  Fingers crossed that this fixes issue.

Spoke to 3 "Live Chat Techs".  Some are remarkably better than others.  3rd one was charming, helpful, listened to problems, and gave me satisfactory conclusion.

Disclaimer: I bought this TV at BestBuy only because it was five minutes away and Amazon/Best Buy price match. That said...

This is a beautiful TV and recently I learned that the "too real" look can be fixed!!! It's called the Soap Opera Effect and there's lots of videos on Youtube if you use that word in the search bar. However, I'm going to save you time by saying it comes down to adjusting the judder setting. Here's how you do it...

Click on Picture> Picture Options> Scoll down to Auto Motion Plus>Click Custom.
You should see a slider bar called JUDDER. Scroll to 0 (Zero) and you have a standard TV look. Scroll to 10 (Ten) and you have the Soap Opera Effect (everything looks like behind the scenes on a set.) ~ The closer you are to zero, the lesser the SOE. For me, a nice balance is 5 on this TV, but adjust it to your liking.  :-)

Back to my review:  Now that's out of the way, I like how Netflix, Youtube, and other stations can come up quickly. It has a quad-core processor and is very responsive to me. It transitions easily from cable to my PS4 to Netflix, depending on which HDMI I want. Folks, keep in mind - this is a 4K TV... most of these cost several thousand dollars. In five years or so, they will only be a few hundred bucks. This price point of $599 for a 48" as of this posting - is one hella of a deal. Can't go wrong - go ahead and buy it!

I love it, but then I love big tvs. It has a great picture. It's got a lot of kitchy features, which work but they are a little glitchy so you have to learn how to use them. The 3D is very good, and I was surprised to learn that the 3D worked for Call of Duty on my Playstation 3. The conversion is pretty good too. I usually watch spots in 3D if they aren't on ESPN3D. Most other TV I watch in 2D. If you are going to use the smart capabilities you are definitely going to need some kind of keyboard. I got the Samsung model. It was expensive, but it works pretty well. It's bluetooth so you can use it for other devices that use bluetooth such as many tablets including iPads, and it's customized for the TV so you can use it like a remote (which isn't really practical unless you're already using the keyboard).

My one real complaint is that the picture in picture only seems to work for different sources, so you can't have a cable channel in the main screen and a different channel in the picture in picture box - it has to be a different source I think. That makes the picture in picture pretty much worthless to me. Also, the "special" remote that pairs with the IR blaster is worthless, along with the IR blaster. I wasn't really expecting them to be cool so that's why I am not really holding it against the TV.

The TV you buy is going to depend on what features are important to you and your budget. I rated it 5 stars because I wanted a big TV with an excellent picture and this TV definitely met my expectations, and the 3D was a pleasant surprise for me. If you buy this TV, or any other for that matter, look up your model and find some recommended picture settings. It makes a big difference. I like CNET.

Oh, and I read about some humming. I was a little worried about it cause I read about it in several posts. I now think that I was insane for ever thinking twice. If you put your ear within 2 inches of the TV with volume at 4 or lower, you can hear a very, and I do mean very, small buzzing noise. You will essentially never watch the TV at less than 4 volume and I'd have to question your sanity if you're watching a 64 inch TV from 2 inches away. I would have never known about this "problem" if I didn't read reviews (not that you shouldn't read reviews, obviously since I'm writing one).

I really Love this TV, its fantastic at everything except one. I have a very advanced system, and i thought this TV would be a cheap alternative to the VT60, All my output is designed for 1080p 24p, forced by our system decoder, so i bought it for its 96 Hz option(only TV that handles that under 2000). It is really good except for "off perception flickering" in the brighter coloring(VT60 has none).  3:2 bothers the heck out of me, and the occasional flicker is well worth the difference. This is the only "value" (ST) that has this option. Use the calibration guides, keep in mind your current pull will go up at least 120-200 watts after (not a big deal in the US). This TV ended up being our choice over the VT60 because of the weight, the ST60 is about the same weight as our 42" panasonic from a few years ago.

Amazing set....
Color 9.8
Contrast 10
Reflection 8.9
Brightness 9.3
Edge Sharpness 9.6
Source Integrity 8.4
Input Lag 6.5 - (though lag is high around 110, its not noticeable unless your playing medium-high lag multiplayer on a high input lag system, human perception is about 140-220, so game systems do well on single player, but multiplayer on 360 or PS3 can notice a small amount from controller to system about 10, 3-5 for processing, add that to multiplayer 50-150 lag and you'll notice it more in your perceptional views)
96 Hz(24p@24+24+24+24 or 4:4 ratio) - 7.6 (while low remember there are not a lot of sets capable of this)
Theater Recreation 9.6
Sound 5.3 (not really what you buy this TV for)
Overall Happiness 9.7 (this is a fantastic set, and once you sit back and just use it, the little minor things are completely unnoticeable to the overall perception of this fantastically priced masterpiece!!! Only consider the VT60 or the ZT60 if the flicker in 96 Hz is going to bother you and the weight doesn't)

just wanted to save others from making the same mistake i made..dell will keep moving up delivery dates..if they told you it would take a month to receive your tv, you wouldnt order from them..i found THOUSANDS of people this has happened too...
  as for the tv...amazing..i watched it at a friends house for a couple of hours..they don't have wifi yet, so i cant comment on that function,but the picture is outstanding..i couldn't see any blooming,didnt notice any motion artifacts..one thing i did notice was...i keep saying "this thing is awesome"
  i will update when my tv arrives in a coupe of days from AMAZON..

update..got tv..its up and running..very simple to set up..the initial tv "set up" is very good, then i used cnet setting and its even better..i originally thought the picture was great, then put on my glasses and was WOWED all over again! honestly i cant find fault in anything..the aps are fast..picture is awesome..and the packaging is top notch..its a rare thing to find a product that is competitively
priced and isn't compromised ..A+ to vizio!!

just wanted to comment on this tv after a couple of days of use and some nfl football....generally the "wow" factor wears off in a couple of days...not so with this bad boy!!the only downside of this tv is, i watch too much tv now..i have dish network that has a ton of HD channels..this isn't my first hdtv i have a 50"samsung plasma in my rec room and this tv blows it away!!!!! interesting side note: i wear glasses and on the "vivid"mode w/a couple tweeks i don't need my glasses..however the cnet setting are more accurate and the best set up for people that are not visually challenged

still going.. and after a couple of months still extremely happy! one thing i want to say..this tv has exceptional picture BUT it doesnt produce that "carton effect" as some others due..personally that effect catches your eye at the mall but gets old for everyday viewing..just my .02

I bought mine at Best Buy. If you do as well, be sure to get the Geek Squad protection. If anything happens to your TV, they'll give in-home service at no extra cost.

Anyways, got this TV last week and am super happy with it. I haven't owned a TV in years (over 5), and the last one I had was maybe 23inches. It was a giant box TV. So this is a big upgrade for me.

I paired mine up with a new Roku 3 and a Vizio Soundbar. The speakers on the TV are only meh; get a soundbar for less than $200. You'll be happier with that.

I got the Roku 3 because I did not want to bother with the built in "SMART" apps. I suggest you do the same. When I did fiddle with it before plugging my Roku in, it was kinda sluggish. Plus you can always replace your Roku or other media box should the need arise; but you can't replace the built in software of the TV.

Anyways!

The display itself is beautiful, except for one thing: There is a tiny bit of light leak in the upper corners, but nothing major and I don't see it 90% of the time. Should it become a bigger issue, I'll contact Geek Squad. =)

I altered my picture settings to Calibrated though I sometimes like to switch to Vivid for the brighter colors. The standard one is ugly, don't use it. And Dark Calibrated is, in my opinion, too dark.

Overall I am very happy. I'm sure I'll eventually upgrade to a bigger 4K OLED TV in the future, but that's not for at least another five years. I want to wait for the prices for OLED and 4K to come down first. And once that happens, this TV will become the guest TV. >=D

Update:  There is a way to turn off that annoying light!! Whoohoo. And though I discovered how to turn off the light by accident, (I was playing with settings trying to change preset remote settings), I just noticed that TCL's support team had already commented on my gripe.  Wish I would have noticed this sooner, but wow, great customer service!  I've upgraded from 4 stars to 5 stars. For the money, this tv is such an awesome deal!

Pros:
I only paid $119 for tv, and for that price, the tv is a great buy.
Decent picture quality.
Roku features are awesome. (my first experience with Roku.)
Easy to navigate.

Cons:
Though remote is easy to use, I wish it had numbers for OTA channels and maybe a favorites button. (Though not that big of a deal)
Sound quality is not that great. (tends to be really low)
And the MOST ANNOYING thing is the light on the bottom left of the tv! It's where you have to point your remote, but when the tv is off the light stays on.  I have this particular tv in my bedroom, and I can't sleep without covering up that darn light.  I would just black it out with electrical tape, but then the remote won't work when the light is covered. This is my biggest complaint.  Other than that, I'm really enjoying my tv.  I just might eventually move it to a different room.

This is my first flat panel TV. So over the past 2 years as I was contemplating the move first to a plasma, and more recently to an LED, I have read every review, checked spec's, features, inputs, and outputs.  I decided to go with the 47LM7600 for a several reasons. The most important being picture quality. The other reasons included the magic remote, slim bezel, and the low cost of passive 3d.

Pros:
Awesome Picture!
Beautiful TV with thin Bezel, I would call it the iphone4 of TV's style wise.
Easy Setup

Cons:
Changing inputs
Smart TV apps
Netflix sluggishness

Once the TV is set up and the picture is calibrated, there is no flashlighting. Initially out of the box there was minimal amounts along the top and bottom of the screen, but it disappeared after calibration. I found the Trumotion to be too much for most viewing, and will try it with some sports programming, but otherwise it remains off.

My biggest issue has been the input selection, having to click at least 3 or 4 times to change an input is too much. Also, being able to hide inputs on the input screen would have been helpful as well, I have no need for the general TV input, and it pushes hdmi #3 and #4 to a second page. Also renaming the inputs would have been helpful as well, as you can only rename them to generic defaults.

Another issue with the remote is that if it moves, the curser and info bar pop up on the screen and stay for about 5 seconds. It would have been nice if this could be adjusted, or if the info bar was black it wouldn't be such an eyesore when it pops up in a movie, because it is limited to the black bar at the top in a widescreen movie.

The Netflix App is slow, and crashes constantly, but not worth removing a star for. I just use the PS3 for Netflix instead. Like I said, I bought the TV for image quality, not its apps.

So overall, this TV does what I expected it to do, and it does it well. I am happy with my buying decision, and foresee this TV lasting me a long time.

I can't comment on the TV itself, as I have been unable to attach the stand yet.  The holes to insert the screws to attach the base to the TV are so far recessed into the neck of the stand that unless you have a long-handled, magnetic, small-headed Phillips screwdriver, it seems impossible to do.
Does everyone else have one or has someone else encountered this problem?  Any solutions?

Update:  Finally got the stand attached, but I do think Samsung could come up with a better design.  All else is working well.  It was a fairly easy setup.  The picture and sound are very good.  I love the matte screen, as I had a problem with light reflections from a window with my previous TV.  Overall, I am pleased!

I love the tv, it was exactly as described; however there is one major issue with the tv that people should know. This tv has the power button on the front bottom part of the tv, but it is not a button you push in; it is a button that is I think heat sensitive because you have to press power sign on the glass which is hard to see unless your looking straight at it. Think of the tv as a rectangle and on the bottom part of the rectangle smack dab in the middle is on button sensor. This is not in the manual which makes it even worse when trying to figure it out. I believe that was the only poor thing about it. I wish the picture and picture worked with TV to TV, not just component to TV and it doesn't work great with cable unless you play around ALOT with the picture stuff like sharpness and color, etc.

Also, if you have an xbox, please realize that it can only go to 60hz so don't get the tv if your getting it mainly for gaming purposes.

With the delivery, it took like 2 weeks when it said I would get it within 4 days. I didn't mind too much because the shipping was free, so can't really complain they sent a 40 inch for free. The shipping people were really nice when they scheduled the drop off and they were right on time. I would buy from them again.

The picture looks good and I have no problems with the sound quality (though I would have preferred having audio out built-in). My only complaint with this is the IR sensor (i.e. the sensor on the TV for the remote control), it is recessed into a narrow channel and I have problems just turning the  TV on with the remote. I use the TV with the included feet and have it sitting on a table top, the IR sensor is in my line of sight but I still have problems getting it to register when turning it on. Just to turn the tv on I have to press the power button on the remote at least 5 times. The issue is not batteries, I have tried a 3rd party universal remote, a IR blaster cable and a IR blaster device and none have helped, the only thing that does help is if I unscrew the two screws for the IR sensor/button panel and let the IR sensor sit on the table exposed. But as you can guess this looks horrible. I'm wondering if maybe the LED directly next to the IR sensor may be causing problems with the IR sensor.

EDIT:

I went ahead and removed the LED and reassembled and all is working great. Seems the LED that turns on when the TV is off is blinding the IR sensor making it harder to receive the power on command from the remote.

If anyone reading this is having these problems and is comfortable messing with electronics, then just remove the small LED next to the IR sensor and all will be working great. For those that aren't comfortable messing with electronics, this is a design flaw, so your best bet is the return the TV set for a different model.

Great TV especially for price ($799 on sale 5 months ago).
Researching TV's I've found due to VARIOUS reasons, take out the best 10% and bottom 10% and the middle is probably accurate.  I didn't see the reviews on here say they calibrated it, you have to do that with any HDTV (they might have).
Make sure putting on wall you don't bend glass, that bleed i've found is after pushing on glass.  Could be a defect though, but covered by warranty.  That is NOT what the TV looks like as you can see from most reviews, so probably defect?  Call LG and you should have it covered.
Trumotion setting is weird, it will make simpsons/family guy look strange so turn it off on those type shows.  Love this tv, put in refinished basement, good darks and brights.  Again, calibrate calibrate calibrate :).  You can download THX Tune up for free on iphone tot do the picture and sound, and it will be awesome.
Buying another one (smaller) for other side of basement.  LG has IPS technology which limits 'cloudiness' you see in other sets after a couple years, the technology is great.  I should've gotten wifi one though, this is older set (1-2 years) so newer one should have wifi at no additional cost by now.  great set

I have the 60-inch version of this tv and it's amazing in both cost and picture.

When I first got the tv, I was a bit underwhelmed as the picture was too dim.

To fix this you can:

1. Turn off ECO mode (set it to "Standard")
2. Turn off CATS feature in the picture settings.
3. Do not use "Standard" picture mode.

When I switched to "Home Theater" mode, the picture came alive! Clear, vibrant colors, everything is crisp and clean.

The only Cons would be that image retention does occur if you leave a bright logo or HUD for long periods of time, but it goes away when viewing other content. I'm not even worried about it. And the Auto Brightness Limiter is a bit annoying: when a screen is almost all white, the whole screen will dim a bit (even with ECO mode off), but 99% of my viewing is not like that so no biggie.

[EDIT] TV is great after  1 1/2 years.

Picture and functionality: This tv is beautiful. Looks great with the Xbox 360, with Game Mode on. Extremely convenient that it saves the settings for each picture mode, so you can set it and forget it. The speakers actually sound really good, but it's in a bedroom that is about 15'x15', so I can't comment about how they sound in a larger family room. But what I do know is that most hdtv's don't have great sound to begin with, considering they're so slim these days. But who doesn't know/expect that? We all use surround sound or sound bars.

This tv also has a digital optical sound output, so it's simple to hook it up to surround sound, if you want to use the 2 hdmi inputs for other devices. The setup was very easy. When you know what you're getting, this tv is perfect. It's clearly listed as having 2 hdmi inputs and no pc input. As with most plasmas you get a very noticeable reflection in a room with lighting, so a darker environment is best for this screen. The Media Player Connectshare is an awesome feature! I can hook my 1TB External HDD to it and play blu-rays right from there- Plug and Play.

Couldn't be happier with this tv so far, now hopefully it lasts. You can extend the warranty by 3 months by registering it with Samsung. Overall, the picture is stunning when playing Call of Duty: Blacks Ops 2. I can't test this for HDTV quality because I don't have the service right now. [EDIT] It's a great picture with HDTV service. No complaints. Colors look real, blacks are black.

Blu-Ray movies look great. Great color, no motion blur, seems like a perfect image.

Physically: The tv looks great, it's very sleek, and slim. I may decide to mount it, considering it's thin build. I mounted it with a mount also purchased from Amazon. Painless and all the wires are hidden in the wall. FYI, the hdmi jacks face backwards, away from the tv, so it is difficult to reach behind the tv to switch around any cables. It'd be nice if the jacks were sticking out of the side of the tv, but I manage and it doesn't really bother me.

Purchase: There was no way I was waiting in any lines on Black Friday. I went to Best Buy and Walmart Thursday night, just to check out the frenzy, and I am happy I decided to get a way better deal for this huge tv, online. The scheduled delivery made it very convenient as well. The delivery man was respectful and prompt. As a student, the Amazon Prime Student Membership really hooked me up with the free 2-day shipping.  Thanks Amazon!
