Setup can be finicky, requiring workarounds for forced Smart Hub and AI pop-ups, but once configured it performs flawlessly. Users praise its sleek design, seamless connectivity with Samsung devices, and great value for an OLED. Minor complaints include a mediocre remote and initial software annoyances.
