3.0 out of 5 starsYou Get What You Pay For...

I gave this 3 stars as the TV functions as it should and it's my fault that I didn't do my homework (I did not buy this from Amazon - it was the last one left at the store I was at a couple days ago and the last one in my area. It was a good price, so I jumped on it and thought I'd post a word of warning here). I was under the assumption that all 4k TV's were running at 120 hz at this point - had no idea new 60Hz TV's were still being made. I kept messing with the picture as my nearly 11 year old 1080p 240hz Samsung 55 in. looked better. Well, that 240Hz refresh rate is why. When I read the specs online I was shocked to see the refresh rate at 60hz ('motion rate 120' is just gimmicky buzzword speak to sell low grade TV's like 'blast processing' was used to sell Sega Genesis for those old enough to remember). I still love Samsung, and I will be getting a better TV from the brand when I can. If I had known the refresh rate was only 60Hz I would have never considered getting this (really wish the store I was at had the full specs on the product card... But yeah, my fault). If you don't play video games or aren't super picky when it comes to image quality in movies, this TV is fine. If you do play games and are concerned about image quality in your movies well, with electronics you get what you pay for.
