- External media (++): Playback via USB works perfectly, even with 1080p MKV files with multiple audio tracks and subtitles. No stuttering, perfectly synchronized. Even as a second screen on the television on HDMI keeps perfectly to the standard, so that Windows, Linux and Mac can connect equally well with him. Probably even Android and iOS if they have the appropriate interfaces on the device.
- Design (+): The design is very nice, from the thin frame to the back. All very low key.
- Remote condition (+): The Fernbedinung is clear and well organized. All the necessary keys are present. The only thing to complain about, are somewhat difficult to press rubber buttons. This can be seen but only if you four hours continuously pushes it around.
- Apps (+): In addition to standard apps like Twitter, Facebook, etc. are mainly two to name laudable: Youtube whose pairing works surprisingly well and quickly responds. So probably make Youtube parties fun. Or so. In any case, very convenient that you can remotely control the TV via laptop in this way. Also praiseworthy: Netflix. Especially for Germany fresh start provides the television together with max cathedrals fortunately an appropriate app.
Cons:
- Programming (-): To be fair, it should be mentioned here: this is supposed to be better than other manufacturers in this TV. Then I do not know by what hell else I would probably have to go. If you have a fairly accurate idea of what you want to have stations where, one is faced with an enormous task:
- First of all, understand that the Wired found 350 stations not only in TV, Radio Analog (was meant: analog TV) are separated, but in between also very mixed feeling are 200 encrypted channels.
- Then find that TV and analog two separate lists, and the "Program on" and "off program" and the number buttons in the remote to operate the respective list in which you currently are. Ponging the lists you done either with the side buttons on the directional pad while in the channel list is, or where you dials the number via number key on which you are currently already; This causes the TV to jump at least the next list.
- Ultimately, it has four hours needed a USB stick for exporting and importing the channel lists and a PC with Channel list editor software until everything was set up, as I had imagined.
- Processing power (-): Yes, that has to be specially mentioned here, if only because a "quad-core" is advertised. Even on the manufacturer product page is under processor only "quad-core" - neither name nor speed, nor anything else. Samsung understands the "quad-core" a 4MHz processor? Or an A with four cores 10Mhz? I have seen a menu so seldom stutter. The browser has died almost at it, display a Javascript-contaminated side. Since even the input via keyboard is used in an entry field for about 20 seconds to successfully display the letter box. Outside the smart TV functions bucking lists but also not infrequently, when one considers the high under Abtaste pressed to get through faster. Disappointing.
Missing AppStore (-): Subliminal you realize that the TV has about 1.5 GB of space, and can install apps - but this option emerges only when you need to. So there is probably no way to install apps for customization - just what Samsung is available.
Screen Share / AllShare Cast (-): Great advertised by Samsung, then, confined to its own products, and only up to date them. If one wants to be as aggressive tie his client per se, you should at least give trouble.
The connection is unstable, sometimes reacts cumbersome to not at all, and often finds the smartphone on the TV in the network at all. This will probably work better via LAN instead of WLAN; but to test me then but the 20m Ethernet cable is missing from the TV.
- Stand (-): When assembling it acts still solid, but it might have two feet better done at the size - The machine wobbles something very, if one presses from the side, for example, a USB flash drive insert.
Apps (-): Some apps also not work as well. As would be Skype, its chat feature is completely missing. The only thing you can with this app is calling - and that's only if you buy a compatible webcam for Samsung's Smart TVs. What models are that you get at least directly displayed in Skype. As well, the "financial assistance" from Samsung at Microsoft was not enough for a decent app. In addition, there would still Dropbox. Logging in is not possible thanks to the jerky browser. A detour via link.samsung.com had to do it.
Screen quality (-): Here are the ghosts probably in the previous reviews. I agree with a negative vote: The screen is not 100% brilliant, but he rather tends to be too dull. That makes it unusable in a bright apartment, especially if obliquely beside a window. If no homicide problem, but I've ever seen better.
Conclusion: The deficiencies stuck all in frills functions that you use only three times in her life anyway, just to have it used once. This (to me) important works quite well, voralem at the size and the price. Therefore, 3.5 star, tendency towards 3 because at the weaknesses in SmartTV I could have taken the 5070er model - that's the SmartTV-loose brother of the presented TV.
PS: Dear buyers, if you have the option: Let ship by DHL! My TV came via Hermes: Transport instructions ignored completely, tilted the package aside, torn at the edges and along -geschlagen and pushed to one side. Sorry, but you do not so transported 600 televisions!
PPS: Pretty good that promised in Amazon's product information Dimensions 49.9 x 650.1 x 1118.4 cm have not been respected. Who wants a 11m wide television ...
