Great. As an appliance salesman I’ve been saying about Samsung that “well at least they make great phones and TVs” but now I can’t even say that.
I used to work doing dish, I used to suggest tv brands as, Samsung >Sony >lg and avoid everything else. But after all the shit Samsung does with their tvs, forcing their bullshit on them, forcing their smart tv shit over what you want. I no longer would suggest Samsung, they've fallen down to the likes of Roku.
On my Samsung tv I wanted jellyfin, needed to side load it. When doing so it blocked access to the Samsung servers and most Samsung features. I had no idea the tv could be so fast and responsive.
What's the beef with Roku? I'm all in on Roku at home. I even got a new TV with Web OS or Tizen recently, I don't remember. I hated the OS and went out and bought a Roku Ultra LT for it. Have I just accepted or gotten used to the crap? Like the Netflix, Hulu, etc buttons on the remote or are there other problems?
My parents have roku and I use it when I’m over there. Seems fine to me.
Far better than my xbox’s home screen
I think the only thing they make that is competent are their SSDs. Stay away from their batteries and phones. Also their "smart" TVs become slower and more ad infested with every update.
Never had any of their appliances, so can't comment on those. The exploding washing machine story doesn't inspire confidence though. My 80s Samsung AM/FM/cassette boom box is great though and still works.
Basically they don’t work well with water. All of the samsung appliance complaints I’ve gotten have had to do with water leaking somewhere.
