I have had my Samsung 65in smart TV since new and the main reason being the ability to upgrade the hardware capability using the evolution kit. Is there any chance you can work on a task to release a new evolution kit for our stranded TVs? My TV is still functional, the evolution box itself is OK for now but I am worried it will soon be too far behind the latest technology. Are you happy to parts exchange my TV so I can get the latest model? I paid too much to sell it cheap, I need Samsung to recommend a sensible route to upgrade.

I installed the Evolution kit to bring my 65" up to date. I paid a lot for it and wanted to keep it on the edge. Advantages: 1. New smarthub has more room for apps (in fact now I notice there is a real shortage of apps) 2. Some apps perform better, the processing is clearly quicker 3. No change in HD picture quality. However a poor SD feed is definitely improved with heavy duty noise elimination 4. The voice and motion activation definitely work better now even though not to a level that I would regularly use them. Disadvantages: 1. The connection to your Ethernet cable is flimsy and am afraid that cleaning behind the TV may damage it if not careful. 2. The remote that was provided with the kit simply doesn't work. It can only switch on and off the TV. I had to improvise to get the old remote working by trying to pair it a number of times with the TV until, it worked. Note: In my case it took up to 2 days for the kit to work properly. Initially apps did not download or run. However every time I switched on the TV a few worked again until after some time it all worked and has worked correctly ever since. Coinclusion: Average product that works (except remote) . If you are Happy with your apps to date on your 2012 TV I would advise that you wait until next year and see if the new evolution kit offers better value. If your apps are slow this upgrade is definitely recommended

Check this kit and its features out very carefully before you spend your money on it - I didn't and I now regret it!
