Samsung UN32J5205 32-Inch 1080p Smart LED TV (2015 Model)

First of all I have to disclose I bought this tv refurbished for only $198 dollars taxes included from the amazon warehouse, with that being said lets begin. First question is it worth buying a 2015 model at the moment? Answer: Depends on the price as I do believe is an excellent TV with great features and really good sound quality too Would you recommend it to anyone? Answer: at $379? I wouldnt to be honest, i would say around $250 would be an excellent value TV How is response time and picture quality? Answer: I do have a no brand TV (Avera 49 inch 4k TV) and while the Avera does display 4k content and looks a little bit sharper honestly I wouldnt take the Avera over this if the price was the same. Response time is good not great and picture quality is really really good even though I wish blacks were a little bit deeper but hey is no OLED display. Pros -Excellent build quality I have had it for for more than 2 years and I bought it refurbished and still works as the very first day - Smart menu is really good and easy to use - Control remote feels of good quality - Stand while I feel is not the best it does the job - Sound quality is actually pretty good, I do have an LG soundbar hooked it up but man it sounds good for TV speakers Cons - Price, at retail price is not worth it but if you can get it for cheaper (and by cheaper I mean at least $250) go for it - Wish blacks were a little bit deeper but Im just being picky right now

First off, the Amazon reviews system is very confusing. When I click on a product I find the reviews at the bottom on an entirely different product than what I clicked on. This review is for the Samsung UN43J5200 43-Inch 1080p Smart LED TV. I am not sure what problems other reviewers had, but i am OCD and this is a great tv. I placed it in the bedroom and found the sound to be very good along with the picture to be above standard. The internet is quick and I can switch from cable to Netflix very quickly. The only flaw I could find is that the mounting screws do not come with the tv, so order them online from amazon for 5 dollars. The proper size is M8. I would recommend the 30mm. Stop looking and buy this tv!

Im not a techie or anything....but this is amazing! It arrived within 3 days, took less than a half hour to hook up and hang on the wall, and the picture and sound quality is EXCELLENT! I didnt expect so much at such a low price....but I was blown away! I also have the Amazon Fire Stick hooked to this, and its a pleasure to watch. It connected with my wi-fi immediately. There is some lag....but that is due to my internet connection, not the tv. We have it in the back bedroom, and now ever Saturday night is movie night with the grandkids on the big screen! LOVE IT! The packaging was perfect. Just looking at it told you it would take a lot of abuse. So happy with this purchase! Definitely recommend it. The sound quality alone is superb.

We purchased this tv for an apartment where we would only have internet and wanted to be able to watch Netflix, HULU, etc. Shortly before getting it I took advantage of great deal to get the Samsung Galaxy Tab A that came out in June. I loved the tablet and the integration with the tv was seamless. I went through two levels of menu to make the tv visible and pulled down the extended-pull-down menu on the tablet by pulling the top bar down with two fingers. After turning smart view on my tv was recognized in a matter of seconds and I was streaming football the entire weekend in high-def. My wife has also streamed from Apple products, including an iphone and a ipad mini that is from 2013 or 14. Physically setting the tv up was easy. The picture was great and the built in speaker is not bad at all. This is the second Samsung Smart TV we have owned and what I was even more impressed with about this one was just how quickly it would load up the smart apps and how fast it processed the WIFI compared to the first one I purchased. This one is a 2015 model year tv and I think our first may have been a 2013 or 2014. The first is also a couple inches bigger, but every time I turn the barely older one on I have to wait three to five minutes for it to be "prepared" to run HBO GO, Netflix, Hulu, etc., and its wireless connection can take a minute to become solid and stream in good definition. This tv is instant on both fronts just about. It is a very impressive product that I am happy to have in our home.

Beautiful, just beautiful. I love everything about the tv. Set up was so easy and the stand didnt intimidate me, and I was putting it together myself. It doesnt wobble. The picture is really stunning. I have never owned a tv before, and I have to say that investing in Samsung (over Vizio or other smaller brands), the larger size, and 1080p were definitely worth it. I can see the quality in the image. Easy streaming and no lag. The sound is great, too. The only thing, that others have complained about too, is that the tv needs a few minutes (5 at the most) to warm up and connect to your wireless network.

I shopped around a LOT before ordering this. It arrived very well packaged and worked perfectly right out of the box. A lot of people are complaining about it being "slow" but its a television, not a computer. It has to load everything through whatever bandwidth you have and its 100% video content which is the largest thing you can possibly be trying to download and upload. It works just fine. When my bandwidth is sufficient theres no lag or choppiness; when I have low bandwidth it stops a lot. This is because of the bandwidth, not the television. The television is awesome. Everyone should order this immediately.
