I feel like a OLD TURD !!!

Walked into hhgreg and there were so many God dam TV's around I didn't know what to do :rolf so I currently have a 720 Samsung 42" TV and I love it. Awesome picture and its just a good unit, I have had it for I think 5 years this march.

Well its time to get a 50" samsung, I learned they still sell a model similar to mind but 1080 and 50" for a really good price, but for a extra $120ish I think it can be a smart TV. Sales guy who was actually pretty cool told me that my phone ( S4 ) can control this and that.

I was out of my zone and left it at that, figured I'd get some feedback on these, what is so special about these ?

I really only watch 1-2 hours max per day and that is in Winter, in summer prolly 1 hour or so, the room has all windows and the sales guy recommended LED to help with the Glare

Love having a smart TV. provides a guide (like a cable box would), you can run netflix strait from it, plus a bunch of other crap. Definitely worth it, especially if you got fed up paying the cable company like I did.

To me it's worthless except for streaming netflix straight from it otherwise a waste IMO. As I have worked with TVs for last 10yrs about 15% actually pop for the smart tv

We use Netflix on our smart TV all the time. Looking for a smaller second one for the bedroom.

HH Greg is actually quite popular down south. Not sure about up here. I have a Samsung Smart TV and love it. The guide is so so....

Your phone can control just about any cable box/av system too

Hhgregg uo here is horrible. At least the one here near me is. The prices are good, sure, but the customer service is horrendous. Good luck trying to get anywhere with them should you have an issue with your purchase
