Samsung UN32J5003 32-Inch 1080p LED TV (2015 Model)

Our bedroom tv died and we were looking to replace it. My husband bought this one because it was a great price and cheaper than many of the smaller models we were looking at. I thought the tv would be way too large for our room but it actually is a nice size and we have gotten used to it. The picture is very clear. It was very easy to hook up and hook up the cable, xbox and google tv to. It is very easy to switch between devices. The cable controller was able to pair with the tv so we are able to use the cable controller to control the tv seamlessly. The tv has a built DTV tuner so you can get off air HDTV reception. There is a coaxial input and you can hook up your MP4 and many other devices. This is not a smart tv - meaning it does not automatically connect to the internet. However, you can stream netflix or hulu or amazon by connecting through other devices. We use our xbox to connect to netflix and watch movies that way. The only downside of the tv is that the sound is not that great. We dont have it set up to any type of surround sound so the only sound we get is coming from the tv speakers. It works ok but you have to turn it really loud to hear it. Other than that we are very happy with this tv. For the price and the fact that it is a name brand it is a great buy!

Not a big fan of the feet. Takes a big foot print if you are putting it on a dresser in a bedroom like I originally wanted to do. So I had to get a wall mounting bracket to hang it. Other than that, great picture and sound.

LOVE this little TV for bedroom. Outstanding color, contrast and clarity, and it weighs "nothing." Speakers are tinny - not good in absence of a soundbar. Fast and easy to set up. Even with 720p stations, the picture is remarkable. Unfortunately, the screen on startup displayed a series of narrow vertical black bars of varying width over a total width of something under 1/2" - Amazon offered their usual spectacular service and had replacement on the way on the same day. Did I mention color, contrast, and clarity? Nice array of inputs. Did I mention color, contrast, and clarity? ... ;-)

I bought this item used/like new through Amazon 3/3/17. It arrived in a factory box, well repackaged. Ive had no performance issues with it in the 2 weeks since its been connected. So far, Im very pleased with the purchase. Nice picture, acceptable sound.

I would like to start of by saying that this is a pretty decent tv for its price. I have no complaints when it comes to the display and how crisp the picture looks. So its perfect in that aspect whether you are gaming, or watching television. The audio however is pretty fair. Its nothing special, but it is doable. Something I can deal with at least until Im able to buy a surround sound, if youre looking for better sound that is. Something else I noticed is that there is only one button on the TV itself, which is the power button. There are no other buttons on the TV, not even volume buttons, so you might want to keep in check of your tv remote and not lose it, unless you want to purchase a universal remote. The back of the TV is kinda cheaply made as well, which I noticed when I attempted to plug cords into the hdmi ports. Makes me a bit reluctant to constantly plug in and out cords from the back since it feels so cheap back there and possibly breaking it. So just bear all that in mind if you purchase this tv that you must be a bit delicate with it. It has 2 hdmi ports btw. Overall, I am very satisfied with this purchase. It could have a bit more to it like more buttons on the tv, but for a perfect display tv at this price range, I cant complain. If you looking for something cheap with perfect picture, then I recommend this. If you want the super crazy high def surround sound, then this isnt it. Dont expect all that bass and stuff, but the audio is pretty fair and crisp as well. But you could always buy a surround sound set if anything. Great buy in my book. * Let me add on to this since i figured something out about the TV. So apparently when you press the power button on the tv when its on, a menu pops up for volume and channel up and down,as well as a menu option and of course to power it down. you have to press the button in the menu to navigate, and hold the button on whatever youre highlighted on for action. for example, if you want to turn the volume up from the tv, press the volume button on your tv when its on, and the menu will pop up. press it until the highlighter goes to volume up and then just hold the button there for it to increase. It seems a bit much, but it makes me much more happier for my purchase now to realize i can do that, considering i thought i had a tv that couldnt do anything but power on and off directly from the tv itself.

I got a smoking good deal on this TV. With that said, I did not rate this TV based on getting it dirt cheap. I am rating this TV fairly for what it is. A low end 1080p TV! First, its sooooo light I couldnt believe it. I could juggle three of these (if I could juggle). If you plan on moving this TV at all, this will not be a problem. Next, lets talk about the quality of the picture. I thought it was very good! I used it for my PS4 & HD Cable TV. No complaints & in fact its very good quality for the price! Its not going to compare to high end $1000+ 4k TV by any means, but its not bad at all! Style, this TV looks pretty good but I must say that placement of the legs is a little stupid. Its such a light weight tv, it doesnt need to disperse the weight so much. This would of been much better with a good stand in the middle (it would of fit better on my tiny Night stand also. Lastly, the absolute worst part of this TV is the sound. Its super quiet & even cranked to 75/100 I find myself rewinding stuff to hear what someone has said. The sound quality itself isnt the worst but nothing to write home about either.

I got this TV as a monitor for my PC for gaming. 1080p looks great at this size. The screen is able to be much brighter than my old monitor and has far less backlight bleed as well. I wish I had bought this a couple years ago as I dont know how I lived without a big monitor for so long. 2 HDMI ports covers my needs. It took me a while to find the power button, it is underneath. IT is also a single button unit so you push and hold to select different functions. If you want to adjust most settings you will need to use the included remote.
