I am supposed to get the wall mounting materials along with my product. But I did not get the product along with my Television. When I called to the customer care (0124 6150000), I spoke to the person who assured me that, he will be refunding the Wall Mounting materials' price when the Installation person from Samsung comes for Installation. I got the product delivered on Thursday. The Samsung installation person is supposed arrive within 2 business days. I think they did not appear at all. This is a very bad experience with WS Retail.
Delivery: Got delivered within 24 hours, kudos to FK for fast delivery. I exchanged my old LG TV and got 3K discount, received acknowledgement for old TV as well.nnInstallation and demo: Installation was done again with in 18hrs of delivery. Samsung executive was fair enough with knowledge, showed the apps, updates and helped me to connect my WiFi. Also informed me about what are the best apps that i can use on my android to utilize the TV.nnPrice: Yes, FK is already giving discounted price compared to showroom, around 63K was in showroom and FK gave for 56K, with exchange of my Old LG CRT TV i got it for 53K.nnProduct: After all the research, i shortlisted LG 42" 5820, Samsung 40H5500 and Sony 40" R482B. After seeing the actual differences live in showroom, i dropped my plan of taking LG as samsung and sony wins in color production in panels. Samsung was in my mind as it has lots of apps and versatilty in codecs that recognizes almost all codecs.nnAfter using for 3 days nownIf you are looking for smart and if you connect to internet, then only you can got for Samsung H5500, if not Samsung H5100 should be fine as it has same panel.nI played number of MKV format full HD movies, from pendrive and my exHDD, it plays flawlessly.when connected to internet, apps are definetly usefull like watching youtube videos, browsing (you need to conenct wireless KB), gesture control doesnt work, u need to invest on TV camera (6K). TV has in built quad core proc, 1GB internal memory for apps, when multiple apps opened TV reboots (yes, it switches off and on by itself). apart from that con, everything is perfect.nnIMO, if you are not going for smart, i would definetly recommend H5100 or extra investment for H5500 is fine as you will get smart apps and inbuilt wifi.nnoverall 4* rating, 1* for TV reboot
******Update********nnI am changing my review after using for 5 months. There was a dark spot started to appear on the bottom side. First there was one spot and then it become two and then three. I raised a complaint with samsung and they change the Display panel at free of cost. Then it was all fine for couple of weeks, Again a dark spot started to appear in a different place. I raised complaint for second time and they gave me full refund. Samsung customer care was excellent. But unfortunately i had to give up on the TV because of dark spots. nnExisiting owners please check for the issue. Dark spots will be prominent in bright scenes. It appears in bottom side.nnnnnnRecently bought this TV. But not from Flipkart. After a lot of research thought of buying 32F5100. And came around this model in internet. This model is not yet popular because its launched very recently. So planned to put the extra money and go for latest model. Using this TV for last one month and I can say I am satisfied.nPros :n1. Excellent Picture quality. Especially HD content.n2. Sound quality is awesome. Keeping the mode in Standard and activating clear voice feature and keeping the volume at 12 or 13, I can feel the real DTS quality.n3.Design is supreme. Its so sleek and I can never realize that there is a panel around the TV.n4. Extremely light weight.n5. Power consumption is very less.n6. USB to USB transfer, screen and sound capture ( It can be done only if you connect USB or HDD)n7. plays almost all the format of videos seamlessly (tried MKV, FLV, AVI, MP4, VOB and few others.)n8. Quick detection of external device connected.nCons:n1. Cricket Mode is not so good. This mode just increases the color and sharpness. and increases the background noise in stadium. I would rather prefer watching in Movie mode.n2. Placement of HDMI cable and on USB ports are so clustered. had difficulty in plugging the USB to the port initially. But used to it now. I wish there should be enuf space between them. Anyway those who use one USB port wont face any problem.n3. No E-manual.n4. No facility to switch between the paused Media content and set-top box content. if you pause any videos you watching in USB and switch to cable or set-top box content and again switch back to videos in USB, you must start the USB content from first. ( you can anyway pause, stop, forward and rewind the content while playing USB content )nOverall I am satisfied with this Full HD LED TV. You can go for it without second thought.nPros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
