[Electronics-Talk] Samsung talking Televisions

[Star Gazer]

				Thank you for this. My husband is thinking
we need a talking tv. How much do these cost and is the spoken output
useful?

Hi, Merv.  Yes, the Samsung TVs do talk.  You hold down the Mute key
(bottom-most key on remote, and rectangular in shape) until it talks.  I
have the 40-inch, 4k TV (Model No. UN40MU6300F); (Model Code: 
UN40MU6300FXZA).

Was able to sync it up with Verizon FIOS cablebox and my sound system. 
You can also change channels by holding down the Talk button and saying, for
example, "channel 631".  Or, you can go into Settings by holding down the
Talk button and saying, "Settings".  Hope the above helps.--Matthew Chao
