VIZIO, but not the newest versions that do NOT have a TV tuner.

Their 50+ inch sets have 4-5 HDMI ports. Their ‘smart’ TVs are supposed to have all of the latest apps.

Depending on the model type, they have real remotes.

I bought a 32” 720p widescreen VIZIO in 2008 and it is still has a crystal sharp picture. I had to replace the remote a few months ago and found one via Amazon.com for $7.

Second choice would be LG.

SamJUNK is on my ‘Never buy another piece of junk from them’ list. One month after a Win7 I-7 laptop warranty ended, the motherboard died. They don’t make replacements, so I have an $800 doorstop. Similar experience with a DVR.

I bought a refrigerator/freezer from Samsung, along with a whole suite of other appliances from them (the dishwasher wouldn’t come on and they wouldn’t come out until I paid an electrician sixty bucks to verify the unit was getting power. It was. It had a bad board. I never got the sixty bucks back). The fridge started having problems and I finally got the number of the area Samsung warranty repair service. When I called, the service said they didn’t have any more ‘credit’ with Samsung, so were not doing service.

It was the only warranty service in the area, so Samsung said they’d give me a check to buy another fridge. I would have lost a couple hundred dollars in the deal so I opted to have it repaired out of warranty, figuring that would be less than two hundred dollars. I’m a little leery of Samsung.
