Samsung 50-Inch Class Crystal UHD 4K DU7200 Series HDR Smart TV w/Object Tracking Sound Lite, PurColor, Motion Xcelerator, Mega Contrast, Q-Symphony (UN50DU7200, 2024 Model)

One week's initial impressions:Pros: price was only $227.99 on sale which is a bargain for a 43-inch Samsung even if it is a "2024 model". Color is great out of the box, picture is great AFTER I turned the MOTION CLARITY option off (see cons below). Sound quality is excellent. Made in Mexico which I can live with (better than the usual alternative who is our main global competitor). Overall, a fine 43-incher. Cons: not all that simple to set up. I had to play with the little Samsung remote (see pic) and go thru several screens and options and streaming services offers, etc. Gripe: there is an annoying VOICE assistant you cannot get rid of on the ACCESSIBILITY menu screen where I go if I want to shut off the picture and leave audio on only. The voice is irritating and says, "ACCESSIBILITY SHORTCUTS, EIGHTEEN ITEMS, PICTURE OFF, OFF" every time I use that screen to shut the picture off and leave audio on. So I just turn the volume down first. The USER GUIDE found in the on-screen menu and the Samsung rep I sw both say you cannot shut the voice off WHEN YOU ARE USING THE ACCESIBILITY screen. Why did Samsung do this? Gripe - the TV comes with "PICTURE CLARITY" ON, but it is easily disabled in the on-screen settings menu. PICTURE CLARITY "ON" is supposed to stop motion blurring on sports or fast action scenes according to internet, but it makes some shows look unnatural like old soap operas. I googled "Samsung PICTURE CLARITY" on the net and that's what the AI responses said, and so I toggled PICTURE CLARITY "off" and now the picture is 100% GREAT. Small gripe: there is a 1/4-inch wide black border around the picture (see pic I supplied) and I thought it was a defect, but I see the same border in the Amazon pictures for this tv and for other sizes of this model, so it's normal. The Samsung rep I sw verified it is normal also. It's so minor and almost un-noticeable and I thought it was the bezel until I looked real close at the screen. CONCLUSION: great picture and sound, great looking TV with that really thin bezel, and great price. Another Samsung TV perfect for our needs. So far we have had all Samsung TVs the last 20 years and none have disappointed. And each lasted over 10 years with lots of use. Side note: I went from a business-required IPHONE to a SAMSUNG Smartphone almost 5 years ago and it has been the best phone I've had. I'm sold on Samsung.

5/20/2025 - 3rd straight Samsung TV owner. Just received the SAMSUNG 70-Inch Class Crystal UHD 4K DU7200 Series HDR Smart TV. Tv stand legs snapped on easy. Good to know cause those are precious moments when these TVs are horizontal. From there I was at the point of watching TV as normal within 3 minutes. No lie. But I have antenna only and am a huge 1960s MeTV fan. Hence the Hogan. The SAMSUNG 70-Inch Class Crystal UHD 4K DU7200 Series HDR Smart TV has better antenna reception compared to my last Samsung and obviously better picture and size. So far I am impressed l. $470~ for a 70 in Samsung and all the specs. If you dint game, you won't find a better deal than this I feel considering the economy. My advice is to go reasonable on TV screen (screens always need replacement), but go HIGH on theater surround sound components. Ears don't lie. The Price of thia TV is a budget buy if 70 inches if screen is enough for you

Bought the 55". Sound is okay, not too loud and not high definition. But it's not losing a star because it's a great buy on a Samsung and pretty much everyone uses some sort of external sound device. I stick to Samsung because I can easily connect a Samsung phone or tablet for screen mirroring. I spent a day setting this up: a couple hours on putting the bracket on the wall. About 3 hours hunting down all the apps and signing in to everything. And a couple more on tuning all the tv features and picture quality the way I like it. After all is said and done, it's very user friendly and has a great picture quality. The remote has no microphone but I happen to like less spying devices on me, just like I bought a laptop that doesn't even have camera, that's just me.

TV is 3/4 inch higher than stated in its description due to a sensor assembly on its bottom right side. Made a difference to me because it replaced an old defective 65" TV built into our wall unit. Had to call a carpenter to make a cut out for it to fit.TV also has no standard audio or optical outputs to connect into my surround sound system. Instead, it has a new and not quite as usable eARC/HDMI output. Amazon has eARC to optical and eARC to coax converters and I am still waiting for one of these to arrive to make sure the TV is usable.Turn the TV on and it will start a setup routine that asks for all kinds of personal information. At one point even asked for a credit card and passwords for Apps like Netflix. Its remote control is unmarked and very hard to use. Some buttons move in 3-directions, push in, slide up-down. With no explanation of what each direction does. No written manual came with the TV.Picture quality is great and bright, far better than our old TV. The built-in speakers are located on its bottom and at 100% volume are barely loud enough to hear.

Love this TV!!!!! I got a firestick to go with it but honestly, I did NOT even need to use it so I returned it. It has Samsung TV plus that comes with it. It is fast and love the layout. It is a perfect size for my room. The color quality is pretty clear and the brightness is perfect. The sound that comes out of this tv, it's pretty loud and clear. There are MANY channels that come with the TV. It is perfect for me! I LOVE this tv!!

Had to replace the Samsung tv in the family room that I have for my African Grey parrot. He has favorite programs that I stream for him. The other day Buddy (AG) was able to get on the tv stand a chewed a little corner of the frame, and the tv would not work after that. Buddy had to wait 5 days for this new Samsung arrived; I truly believe he went through withdrawals from not being able to watch his programs!The new tv arrived today, and it was so easy to setup, and Buddy is thrilled.Now I have to make sure Buddy cannot even reach the corner of the tv because we do not want a repeat of the damage.I highly recommend Samsung tvs; in fact, I tell all of my friends about how great the tvs are. I only buy 43 inch tvs; the quality is fantastic, and one cannot beat the price!
