I use the app, there’s a “view available coupons “ under the “apply coupon code” box, just click the coupon you have in there and it will apply

But wait, how to get a $25 off 199 coupon? Is this targeted?

You can't use it because they marked the item as "low profit".

It seems like a bargain, but what on earth is "DLED"? It's not OLED (and what a difference one little curve on a letter makes!). It's not Direct-view LED. 'cause that would be amazing.

For 199$ it's "whatever was available" LED

Bought this TV for exact same price back in 2018 BF sale. I have a Chromecast hooked up to it and it is awesome. Still working great!

I bought this back in Feb 2020 for ~$250 (which gave me $60 worth of their S-Points): it's not a bad TV, but not good enough to recommend either.

Went to VESA mount it and the nut on the inside of the TV came loose - so I couldn't remove the bolt (it just kept spinning around inside). With less than 50 hrs of use got a dead pixel. Haven't had any more since then (it's not used much, up around 200+ hrs 18 months later). Colours need tuning out of the box.

The only reason I'd get this instead of a 40 inch TV at SDM for ~$250 is the free shipping.

Does anyone know if the PrimeCables logo can be removed without damaging the bezel? And what branding is on the splash screen?

Thanks!

I had this TV until recently; (gave it to my bro). It's good for the price, (I bought it for the same price a couple years ago,) but you have to put the Sharpness setting to 0 or the image quality will look pretty bad.

There's no such thing as DLED they just made that up; but there's no such thing as an "LED TV"
or "QLED" either, but that didn't stop Samsung from inventing this nonsense and somehow "making them happen" as people say these things all the time

An "LED TV" is just an LCD with an LED backlight, a "QLED" TV is just an LCD TV with an LED backlight and a QD filter.

I imagine "Shopper+" is merely referring to a direct LED backlight (as opposed to edgelit) hence the "D". However unlike Samsung, Shopper+ will not be able to "make DLED happen".

That's right Shopper+, stop trying to make your dumb name "happen".

Anyway this TV is fairly pointless. IPS but it's 1080p so it's useless as a monitor. Being IPS it will have terrible contrast which means it's crap for a TV too, not to mention it's bottom of the barrel junk we're talking about. Basically another one of those cheap "electronic waste" products no one should buy.
