"I needed a 80" TV as cheap as possible for my business.
I found buysquad to be $50 lower then the lowest guy with good reviews.
I ordered the TV on a Monday and got the TV that Friday. The trucking company brought the tv in my house and I pluged it in to make sure that there was no cracks.
This unit was in great shape."

"After reading all the positive reviews on buysquad.com we placed an order for a top of the line Panasonic VT-60 plasma TV. Soon after placing the order we receive an email asking us to call a long distance phone number to confirm the order. As a customer why should I have to call to confirm an order. If they want it confirmed they should be calling the customer. After sending two emails asking them to call us and getting no response my wife called them. They they tell her that they require a $135.17 insurance charge be added to any items over $500.00. I was unable to find this requirement listed anywhere on their website. We promptly canceled the order and found another vendor to place the order with. The customer service was short tempered and rude on the phone and kept smacking his lips like he was eating or chewing something. After quite a bit of questioning and grumbling they finally agreed to cancel the order. Not recommended from our experience. "

"Overall smooth and easy experience, placed an order on 10/1 just got my TV today and I am very pleased with the service, prices and speed if my delivery. Ordered the UN65F8000 can't wait to start having football viewing parties on this TV everything can factory sealed BRAND NEW and just signed up to Samsung tech support. Wow what a TV I'm getting excited writing this review.

Great job Samsung and Buysquad!!! I will be back for more!"

"I had an issue with the time of scheduled delivery. I called buysquad and they took care of the issue and made sure it was rescheduled at a time that was good for me.

Regarding the service and product, all was as advertised.

This is a good reflection for this company as one that takes care of their customers."

"My Partner suggested this site. He purchased a 60 inch LED TV and was happy. After that, I went online and purchased a 55" for my bedroom. It took 6 days to get to my house. Got the tv brand new in perfect shape. Thanks"

"got brand new sharp tv

all is good

will return"

"This is the first time I have ever written a review. i have purchased thousands of dllars ver the internet and I never write riviews even if its not such a god experience.

This was actually a better then expected experience. I was looking to get a new look in my bedroom and I figured teh best way todo this was buy a new slim tv.

I found the Sharp 80" and went for the lowest price and best reviews. i found buysquad and gave them a shot.

The online ordering process was easy. I spoke t a rep to make sure I was getting the tv shipped right away.

It shipped the next day and gt to my house 1 week later.

There was 2 men that came to deliver. The box was in perfect brand new condition and I peed the unit and it was beautiful.

Buysquad actually called me after the purchase to make sure it was god and I must say i was really impressed.

Thanks guys.

i will let my friends know."

"Thank you very much buysquad staff. I needed my tv to be delivered in a quick fashion for a house warming party I was having. buysquad really did there job on getting it to me.

I must say that I did drive them a little crazy because my wife needed the room to look perfect when the neighbors came and they came through in a very professional manner and went out of there way to assure me that it would be delivered with in the allotted time.

This company has the best prices around. I would definitely recommend buysquad to whoever is looking to purchase a flat screen or any other products they offer.

Thanks Again and will definitely be doing businuss with them in the future."

"I was looking for a 60" LED HDTV with smart features.

I Called buysquad and the sales person who helped me could not have been better. He recommended a TVthat was less expensive than the one I had set out to purchase.

My sales rep's suggestion saved us money and allowed us to purchase more machines than what we thougt out budget
would originally allow.

I love saving money and good experience."

"This rep at buysquad was just awesome! He took my order for a brand new Panasonic TC-P65ZT60 on Wednesday and emailed me that same day to let me know the tv would be delivered on the following Wednesday.
He provided me detailed instructions on what to do to take delivery of my tv and gave me a contact if I had any problems with the delivery or tv.

The tv was delivered Wednesday by the trucker and the delivery team got to my house 20 minutes early! They were extremely patient and even helped me put it on the stand and hauled it down to my basement at no extra charge.

They verified before they even brought it to me that the screen was ok and helped me power it up to make sure everything was ok upon delivery.

buysquad then followed up with me that the delivery had gone smooth and that I was satisfied with the purchase, which I am extremely pleased with my purchase.

Buysquad gave me an even lower price than they advertised, even beating out eBay, amazon and Google shopping prices. I would definitely recommend buysquad to anyone who is looking to purchase a new tv - they will set you up right! AAA+++

Need a 50” for my kids room and will be calling back soon…
"

"My experience with BuySquad in the end was well-worth it.

If you know what you are hunting for and you compare a lot of prices I found BuySquad had the best value. My Samsung UN55ES7500 TV could not be beat in price by any other company.

Also what I liked is the customer service is very friendly and they did follow thru with their promises.

If you are in the market for a TV or any electronic I highly recommended you shop online. After I did all my shopping it was clear BuySquad had the best value.

Also if you can budget it the extended warranty is worth the value. As long as my friends or me do not break the TV it is covered against all defects for 4 years.. That is AWESOME peace of mind.

Thank you BuySqaud for helping me get my expensive TV less than elsewhere!! "

"Ordered a Sony XBR tv from buysquad. The price was untouchable by any other competitor and the service too. I was looking to buy this tv for about 2 weeks but could not find the best place to order from. Most of the other companies don't have the same good ratting like all-time does. Now I finally realize why they are marked a 5 star company everywhere and why everyone loves them"

"Everything went as expected. Got a new TV in perfect shape. Delivery was on time and smooth. The price was the lowest on the web. I would buy again and recommend to my friends and family. Job well done."

"*Updated on 9/16/13 to reflect upgrade to 60"*

Overall: I have had this TV series for about 3 months now. I am VERY pleased with the purchase. The previous ES8000 model was plagued with cloudiness, banding--both gone in F series. Flashlighting is minimal on this set and improved over the ES series. I needed a LED TV upgrade and was on a budget ($2500 OTD/with tax) that didn't place me in the local array dimming technology zone(best type of TV right now). Plasma's are too reflective for my environment and the extra heat is unwanted (check out the Samsung PN51F8500 though, sounds wonderful).

Right away I noticed how solid the TV itself felt. IF I had to do it over again, I would definitely recommend the 55"(or 60" I have now) F8000 for others to buy over the ES8000. Just ensure you get the best deal for it as the MSRP is overpriced. For ES8000 owners...I wouldn't upgrade. No way. This TV will hold me over until 4K's are on the market for awhile, helping perfect them and lower price.

Be wary of some of these random 1 star reviews, as many users do not even own the F series TV! Or they had an issue because they didn't have the right settings configured. I feel this TV rates 5 stars as I believe this tech is at it's "ceiling" and there is minimal room for improvement using edge lit tech.

For those who wish the short and simple, thats it! Keep reading for indepth review.

Current FIXABLE problems with firmware 11.10:
-3D setting "light control" settins on "high" resets to "low"
-Netflix, Vudu, Amazon Prime, DLNA video's all have cinema black disabled(supposedly this can be fixed in app updates but its remained off)

Picture Quality: The picture quality on this TV is fantastic especially after a few color tweaks (posted below). The blacks are so DEEP compared to my last tv(direct lit led). There is a SMALL amount of flash lighting in all four corners(more noticable on 60" when in PC mode); I believe this is a fault for ALL edge lit tv's as that is how the image functions. I can only notice flashlighting in all black lighting with something like movie title in middle of screen and black on rest of screen, or if in PC mode with a most black screen. Unless you are really looking for it in a black screen and concentrated on a corner you will not notice flashlighting.

Viewing Angle: Fairly limited. You will notice the farther off center you will notice more of a degradation in picture quality. This doesn't bother me as my "seat" is always right in front. Most end users are not as particular or picky as me when it comes to picture quality, many will not even care or notice a difference until a more extreme angle(an angle you can't reach in the room my TV is in).

Price: MSRP is overpriced. Ensure you get a good deal and go to Buysquad.com. The 55" should be around $1999 and 60" $2330. It was a $500 difference. I've found this TV from stores as low as $2075. I bought my last flagship Samsung TV in 2008/9. The A850 model(now in bedroom, this TV still satisfies me and looks better than many lower model Sammy TV's on market today).

Stand: I hated the TV stand. To feng shui for me. My wife loved it though. It actually fit our TV stand, be warwned if you have a small TV stand it will not fit...this stand is very wide. This helps the tv to appear to "float". It even came with some sort of oversized plastic screws and rope that ensured a child couldn't pull the TV down (smart). I planned on mounting this TV though like my last TV, so the stand doesn't matter much to me.

Heat: Had the TV on for 12 hours and couldn't find any hot spots or to much heat to make me worried with how close the TV was to the wall. Was an issue on certain ES8000 sets last year causing a V spot of cloudiness.

Remote: The remote is solid and touch part is amazing. It's not a gimmick at all and actually works great. I find it easy to type with there on screen keyboard. Came with crappy batteries so I opted for some standard spare ones I had in the house. It would have been nice to get a standard remote though for older generations that do not like touchpad technology. The European model gets a 2nd remote. *update* Apply for free standard remote here: It appears you cannot post direct links to the manufacturer goto your tv i.e. UN60F8000 and click the "Support" tab. On that page at the top there is a blue box that states "click here to see if you qualify for a free IR remote". Click that link and fill the form out and it will inform you if you can recieve the free remote. I will try the link one more time: www DOT samsung DOT com/us/support/owners/product/UN60F8000BFXZA#

Smart Hub/"Smart TV" features: Easy, smooth. It would be nice if it was a bit more customizable. Its nice to have all apps in one system. No more need to use my xbox or bluray player apps as the tv smart hub works great. Browsing the internet is as smooth as Safari on my iPhone 5. EXCEPT when dealing with flash, then it slows way down...I'm not sure if flash is compatible. Netflix and Amazon Video stream fine, just wish they had the Smart LED feature. S-Recommended feature does not support Century Link Prism TV(their FIOS tv). They have the DSL rights to my area so I can't have any other FIOS TV. Not a fan of motion control, just like the kinect not useful yet, to gimmicky. Voice seems fairly well if you practice at using it although I had a movie set it off twice in a matter of 3 weeks. I prefer to hit buttons myself, using your voice still isn't natural to me. I was able to stream DLNA sources easily(up to 1080P 3D) with no issues wireless on a 5ghz network. Only issue is DLNA servers on Samsung TV's don't let you fastfoward so you have to find a workaround for certain movie formats. Mine solution was using ZappoTV(free app on iphone) to inform my NAS DLNA to stream to TV...then I could FF/Rewind on tv with touchpad remote(flicking remote left or right) OR doing it form my phone.

Smart LED: This is certainly more of a "personal" setting depending on what you prefer to stare at. I believe if you are a videophile that is obcessed with "trueness" leave it on low. I went from 'low' to 'standard' and really enjoy it there.

Cinema Black: I love this feature it certinaly makes the bars more black on widescreen flicks. I have not noticed this(nor have others), but another owner claim that the black bleeds into the picture where the black meets the "lit" area. Again you be the judge of this feature, let your eyes guide you.

Devices: Hooked up my 10-13 year old 1st gen microsoft bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Worked just fine, somewhat impressed how functional it seemed to be.

Banding: I did several different banding tests and had no banding. I found none on the 55"/60", I have yet to see a 65" without minimal banding.

Stuttering: I really had to work on finding something to get this tv to stutter. My bluray player on any movie? No. Streaming all different types of formats up to 1080P 3D quality on my laptop to TV via HDMI..no stutter. Streaming from my NAS(Synology DS213+) to TV with same formats/qualities listed above. No stuttering. Other users have noted stuttering on Verizon FIOS though and had to set their AMP to clear. Mine works great on custom(settings below).

Sound: No idea, disabled it to use my own speakers(newegg runs crazy sales on polk audio speakers) and a Denon 2112CI..link to the current model Denon AVR-2113CI. A few years ago I spent $700 for Samsung's HTIB. HUGE mistake, so many repairs. Do yourself a favor and invest in a real audio company that has longer warranties and stand behind their product for longer.

The firmware I'm currently running is 11.10. Right when I started the TV and setup network it notified me that I had an update available. I said not to and to turn automatic updates off. Still, Samsung updated the firmware (they are known to sometimes do this). This can be a bad thing as in the past on other sets they sometimes take away features or make the sets look worse--not better. On my last TV it was easy to upgrade OR downgrade firmware...now it's a PITA to downgrade but still possible.

Evolution Kits: I think until these kits prove themselves they are a complete and utter joke. UNLESS these kits prove themselves somehow improving picture quality. If they don't at most I might update the last year its "compatible" with my set to upgrade the processor.

Game Mode: This setting helps reduce lag while playing through your gaming consoles(xbox/ps3). I played BF3 on my Xbox just find and did not notice any lag. Before there was a noticable different between how great PC mode was and game mode. Although on firmware version 11.10 game mode seems similiar to PC mode. This is great news as you have much more control over color settings in game mode(such as smart led).

NOTE: PC mode can only be accessed on sources not assigned to a "Samsung" device(i.e. Samsung Bluray) or any input set up with their universal remote system...it renames source forcing a keyboard naming option that does not enable PC mode. Simply select HDMI 1/2/3/4, select tools(top right), a drop down list should appear, select PC and select it. This mode/dropdown list is ONLY accessible from HDMI's that weren't previously assigned to a Samsung Product or your universal remote. If you wish to assign PC mode to a port previously assigned to STB, just delete the universal remote settings.

The features currently disabled in 11.10 are:

Game mode settings not available:

Picture Options:
HDMI Black Level (forced normal)
Film Mode
Auto Motion Plus
Advanced Settings:
10p White Balance (forced off)

Summary: This TV is an excellent purchase for the right price. I believe it deserves 5 out of 5 stars as it has very MINOR flaws: somewhat pricy, stand wide, stutters nonexistent on my tv service(Century Link Prism TV), flashlighting (BARELY there, doesn't even bother me as I think this edge lit tech is perfected and Samsung needs to hurry up and take over sharp's patents so they can get back to local dimming array models).

Buysquad was a complete pleasure to deal with and satisfied my every need. I still saved hundreds from the local retailers and it came delivered to my door, factory sealed!

Current Color Setting's I'm using from an online forum members home calibrator's settings and slight tinkering of my own(remember, all sets are different and you should use this only as an end user as a good "base" too start with and tweak to your liking's..thats why mine do not match his, also I added turned on cineblack/smartled):

PROS:
1.) Ease of ordering = Good
2.) Customer Service = Excellent
3.) On-time Delivery = Good
4.) Selection = Good
5.) Would shop here again = Yes
CONS: None
SUMMARY: 4 stars = Good

I ordered an LCD TV from buysquad (at the lowest price anywhere on that model),
it was shipped very promptly. The TV has been great, and buysquad provided excellent service.
I would definitely buy there again if they can come up with more great deals.

Over the last couple of years Panasonic TVs have followed a pattern so simple, a caveman could remember it:
Plasma good, LCD bad.

Not including one out, Panasonic plasmas have been uniformly excellent reviews,
the best on the market, averaging a score of 8.1. Its LED LCD TVs have been among the very worst.

The Panasonic LCD outlier. The TC-LE60 is the only non-plasma Panasonic TV in two years to crack,
and it does so handily, with a combination of aggressive pricing and very good picture quality.

It's not the equal of the company's like-priced S60 plasma, but it certainly trounces that TV in a very bright room.

The E60 also offers modern minimalist styling and a solid feature set, including 120Hz and the full Smart TV
treatment. But this complete midrange LED LCD package distinguishes itself with its deep black levels, superb bright-room

image and lack of other major picture quality flaws. the E60 is one of the best LED LCD values of the year.

I performed a evaluation of the 50-inch Panasonic and the other screen sizes in the series.

All sizes have identical specs and according to the manufacturer should provide very
similar picture quality.



Bottom Line:


Buysquad has Outstanding service. Product arrived earlier than expected and was better than expected. Intend to purchase
additional tablets for grandsons. They were thrilled with the one I did purchase"
