I wonder if there I’ll be more older models at lower prices? Looks nice.
RIP OFF ALERT!!! Same TV at best buy is 1199.00 (2025 65" corded “The Frame”) including free shipping/delivery and installation included
That’s a great deal. Costco has the 65 for $1,400.
(I don’t think I’d ever buy a TV that extravagant, though)
I’m not seeing that price at BestBuy. I’m seeing $1599.
Woot still has the better deal here for the 65 inch model
Woot: $1,197
Best Buy: $1,599
The Best Buy one you’re likely seeing is model LS03D for $1,299
Snazzy Tech on YT did not have nice things to say about this model, or Samsung.
That’s the Pro version (wireless one connect box).
I have been going through a saga trying to get a new TV for my apartment. Got the 2024 55" from here a few weeks ago, then realized I wanted something bigger so I returned it. Got a new/open-box 2025 65" from VIPOUTLET (aka walmart’s Woot) which arrived BUSTED 
so now paying a little more but getting a guaranteed new 2025 65" with a 2-year warranty (thanks to Chase) and praying it shows up okay.
Samsung
packaging is to blame for the broken screen. I also bought a new “The Frame” which was destroyed in shipping. No wonder — nothing but thin box and thinner foam sheet between the screen and whatever else is in the back of the truck
Seriously! I knew I should’ve majored in packaging science
I once worked for a large test lab. One of our departments ran a “transportation testing lab” where packaged items were tested against a strict military standard for vibration, shock, impact, temperature, salt spray and a bunch of more stuff I’ve forgotten about. So, there are solutions to packaging problems available but enginer Ing from the school of wishful thinking is rarely successful. Werner Von Braun said it best — “one test is worth 1000 expert opinions”
Was working there as cool as it sounds?
It was fun, especially when we got to blow stuff up!
If only the bosses hadn’t been such a bunch of doofuses, I might still be there today.
Okay so the brand new 65" TV has arrived and it works!! My only concern… the back panel of the tv seems to be scratched and slightly bowed or misaligned, in a way that prevents me from easily inserting the One Connect cord. I was able to get it inserted by gently pushing on the back panel so the cutout would line up but it does make me worry about longevity of the plug on the One Connect cord if it has this constant pressure on it.
Plus I thought this TV was supposed to be new? I sent an email to Woot to see what’s up.
Pics below:
Heard back from Woot CS, offered a decently-sized partial refund or full return. Gonna go with the partial refund since the TV seems to work well enough currently. Thanks Woot!
Bought mine for $25 more last month. Shipping took 7-10 days, if I remember right. TV arrived in great condition, but box had been smacked in one of the corners. I took way too much time trying to get the mounts level, when the TV has a leveling feature that helps adjust the last few degrees. Still want to make my own frame rather than paying Samsung $200 for one. My only issue: my wife thinks the 65" is too big for the space. I think it’s growing on her.
Do not buy these. I had a 2021 model and last year the one connect box stopped working. It was similar price and I feel like anybody buying a TV at this price expects it to work for more than a few years. I tried getting Samsung to sell me another box but they do not carry it anymore they dont give two shits they just want you to buy a new tv. Then I started researching and there are a LOT of people reporting similar issues after a couple years. Look elsewhere for a long lasting TV samsung just sucks, not worth the hassle
VIPOUTLET also sent me what was essentially a TV that seemed to have one hearty swing with a metal bat to the screen
