Our #1 pick for the best curved TV is the Samsung 7 Series TV. Its UHD processor upscales old shows into 4K, and there are millions of shades of gorgeous color. Curved TVs make for immersive and exciting action, and are sure to be the talking point of your living room. Let’s review one of the best TVs you can find from Samsung.

Why We Like It – Samsung 7 Series TV

Even with a curved screen, the Samsung 7 Series TV has a wide viewing angle, so you can watch your favorite movies from any seat in the living room. We love Samsung’s clean cable solution that helps tuck away cords in the back of the TV.

Pros
  • Cable management system
  • Compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant
  • Samsung’s Universal Guide is really convenient
Cons
  • Amazon reviewers had trouble with Samsung customer service

Performance/Display/Resolution/Refresh

A fantastic 4K Ultra HD TV, the Samsung 7 Series comes with PurColor for a more lifelike picture. The 4K UHD processor upscales older content into near-4K picture quality, and it’s HDR compatible, meaning your favorite shows and movies will never look better. 4K UHD looks much better than your standard 1080p full HD TV. With a motion rate of 120 (60hz refresh rate), you’ll watch super smooth sports and enjoy video games with very little input lag. And Samsung’s Ultra Slim Array makes blacks deeper and colors pop for beautiful contrast. Compare the Samsung 7 Series to the Samsung Electronics UN65MU7500.

Sound

The Samsung 7 Series has speakers that sound surprisingly good for being built-in. If you do want deeper bass or higher audio levels, however, you will have to connect an external sound system, or connect a sound bar via its Bluetooth.

Smart Features

This Samsung smart TV is a great addition to any home theater. Samsung’s Universal Guide conveniently pulls listings from Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video and more into one convenient place, so you’ll be watching your favorite shows in just seconds. It’s also compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant devices. With built-in wifi, you’ll have easy access to the internet. Connect to Samsung SmartThings to access your entire smart home.

Ports/Expandability

This Samsung TV has 3 HDMI ports and 2 USB ports for flexibility in connecting all of your gadgets; plug in your DVD player, cable box, gaming consoles, and more, all at once! It works with the Samsung One Remote Control to control all compatible devices connected to the TV, so you don’t have to worry about losing multiple remotes.

Value

The Samsung 7 Series is similar in price to the Samsung RU7300, but is overall a great value for your money. The gorgeous picture quality and easy-to-use smart features make the price definitely worth it, and its energy saver mode will certainly help your electric bill.

Samsung 7 Series TV Wrap Up

Samsung TVs have some of the best displays on the market, and the 7 Series is no different. The 4K UHD upscaling technology will make even older movies and shows look amazing, and you’ll love watching sports with its smooth refresh rate. Other smart TVs don’t have such easy-to-use smart features like the Universal Guide. This Samsung LED is fantastic, but if you’re looking for higher end Quantum Dot technology, check out the Samsung 7 Series Curved 65 QLED.
