Great picture and Smart Apps
I purchased this as a replacement for my existing Samsung TV which was no longer working as a Smart TV.
I was pleased when the wall bracket for my 40" TV worked for the new 43" TV without adjustment. Setup was easy and the picture quality better than the old TV and this one has all the Smart Apps which start up much faster. So all around I'm very pleased with the new TV.

Samsung 43in TV
I bought this tv as I could no longer get catchup on my old Samsung that I purchased from richer sounds back in 2015. I would highly recommend richer sounds as their customer service is second to none. The tv I bought was a Samsung 43in smart tv which was very easy to set up and the colour & sound are very good and the picture quality is great. The only thing that let's it down is it dosent have a user manual in the box and that is not richer sounds fault but Samsung. If you are not technically minded I would suggest you have the tv delivered to your home and pay them the small fee they charge to set it up for you it will be worth it.

Easy to set up, easy to fine tune.
I bought this 3 weeks ago to replace another Samsung that needed to be repaired under the excellent 6 year guarantee as we had a big weekend of sport to watch planned.
