It's not a smart tv but I don't care. Feel free to recommend something you think is better if you know of anything.

This one is better.

IMO they're all the same now unless you buy an OLED (currently ~$1,000 for a 55").

All my tvs are Samsung. I dread the day my plasmas die.

People saying the screen is a bit shiny.  Anyone have this model?  Anything to worry about?

How many windows and how much light in the room it's going in?

I have Samsung TV's (not that series, J400DAF I think. the one you link appears to be a nicer model). I like them quite a bit. No idea how they compare to others.

But you are right to not get a smart TV. Most are really kind of pointless. They are usually not going to be compatible with all of the streaming services you might want to use. A regular TV plus a good streaming device (like Roku or Fire) will almost always give you more options while being cheaper.

Now that's a tv fit for an elite level corn-holer.

Normal amount?

If this is a living room tv and you watch a "normal" amount of tv, especially sports, go bigger imo

I think we settled on between 46-50 after giving them a look. Feel like the price is right on this size as well. I do know 60 would be way too big.

We went from a 46 to a 55 and it seemed a little big for about a day and now we are glad we have the bigger size. I recommend getting at least a 55 and there are many good choices in that size.

I definitely agree. I don't know anyone that went to a bigger tv and now says "my tv is too big"

Do you know of anything that size in the same ballpark price-wise and quality? Seems like the price goes way up once past 50.

I've never owned an RCA so know nothing about the quality but I found that one in about 2 mins, there are usually some really good deals around if you put your time in to find them.

We bought a LG 55 inch this spring for i believe 499 and we like it alot

 

[Willie Neslon]

I don't think I can do RCA or Walmart.

How about a 55" Samsung for $599 that includes a $150 Dell gift card?

Eh, like I said I only looked for 2 mins. But a new tv in a box is the same tv whether you buy it online, at Walmart or wherever

I guess need to go back and look at bigger tv's in person.  I can't imagine needing a tv this big but I'll take your word for it.

This is for the bathroom, right?
