 "great TV" 2009-09-13
By S. Hoang
So far, everything looks good on this TV. It arrived perfectly and the picture quality is great. I haven't noticed any motion blur yet and I'm using this TV mostly for sports and gaming. For the price I got it for, I have absolutely no reason to complain.

PROS:

*Picture is great on blu-ray & HD cable; I LOVE the 4 HDMI inputs

*bought the component cable for the wii (ebay) & it looks great on this TV

*the red touch of color is SWEET...say it again....SSSSWWWWEEEET!

*TV audio is more than adequate; I've never turned it up past 22 (out of 50)

*menus animations are creative

*remote is ergonomic and well thought out

*out of the box, the brightness/contrast viewing settings were fine

*widgets/internet/picture in picture are good, though I have yet to put them to repeat use; it's worth mentioning you can't have two HD signals Picture in picture...1 must be analog/RF

*TV demos are wonderful to illustrate certain settings/features



CONS:

*the glare is pretty bad (I knew this could be a problem ahead of time); if you have windows/lamps anywhere in your viewing room, YOU WILL HAVE A GLARE!

*the delivery experience was a disaster - I selected a delivery day/time (10am - 1pm)...long story short, the delivery company called me on the delivery day @ 5pm (4 hours AFTER) and asked to deliver it a couple days beyond the white glove appointment - HELLO! I took off of work to arrange being there....thanks for nothing!

*the image quality sucks on non-HD channels...this is a global problem, not specific to this or any model...just felt like jabbing...

*the cdnet menu tweaks seemed to be for a previous menu release b/c some of the menu locations changed...I wasn't a fan of the dark room watching settings...

*no svideo input (this I also knew ahead of time)



I haven't quite figured out the 120Hz setting that perfects both sports and game play, but I'm working on it...

All in all, I would make this purchase again in a heartbeat. Rock on Samsung...you complete me.



PS - Jesus is Lord!



 "Love the crisp and brightness" 2009-09-10
By Keven Su
I just got rid of my Sony DLP and got this Samsung HDTV and what a difference!

The picture is crisp and bright...

The only drawback is the DLNA software it came with, it's very confusing where I had to manually set the Device Policy to even have the TV recognize and very limited file support...

I'm now using different DLNA software from Transtechnology called Ultimate CS which is easier with better media support like .rm and .mov files are also supported...

Overall, no regrets... love the TV...

 "Fan-freaking-tastic HDTV" 2009-09-10
By M. Alicia Orgel (Louisville, KY USA)
This was my first ever TV purchase. I have always been spoiled a bit when it comes to home theater since my father was such a nut about it, but since I moved out on my own I really didn't want to compromise on the picture quality I have been used to for years now.



The picture quality is stunning, the colors are bright and clear, and the aesthetics of the TV alone are great for any decor. In fact, my roommate (who has never been able to tell the difference between HD and regular TV,) exlaimed the first time I turned it on that she could finally see the change, and immediately called her ex-boyfriend to let him know that his HD TV sucks.



I must say, I am thoroughly pleased with my purchase. I carefully researched everything, plasma vs lcd, 1080p to 720p, refresh rate, the whole shebang. Amazon offered a great deal on this TV that I couldn't refuse, not to mention the promotional codes that are constantly available to use. The TV itself came out of the box, no dead pixels (I have never read a review of a Samsung brought home with dead pixels,) easy to put onto the rotating TV stand (one you figure the rather poor instructions, it goes into a slot in the TV which isn't clear in the picture,) and just beautiful to watch TV on. I haven't flipped away from my HD channels since I set it up last week.

 "Rediculously great screen! Minor issues after 3mos. use." 2009-09-09
By Joseph Saccuzzo (CT, USA)
My experience with this product has been great. Samsung knocked it out of the park starting with this series. That said, the only issue I have is due to a feature that influenced my buying decision, Internet@TV. Something happened and 3 weeks after purchase, it disconnected from the router. The connection is with an ethernet cable directly to the Netgear router. It worked fine for 3 weeks, downloaded the youtube widget, worked fine. Then shortly after I upgraded the software to version 1008, something caused the ethernet port to be disabled. Not even the led's light up in the back when it gets plugged in. I hope this can easily be fixed, just haven't spoken to the right tech person (most of whom have no idea internet feature even exists). The problem lies in this upgrade, so if you value this feature, don't upgrade the software! Other than that, the usb ports work fine, have one connected to 500GB drive with movies and pictures. Plays all but .MOV video files. Sometimes bugs out when connected to camera, will not display videos on card after photo viewing unless reinserted. Home network connection only works if you have wifi dongle. My bypass for internet usage is connecting an Archos 5 via HDMI which gives me 720p resolution and crisp viewing from 12 feet away. I would recommend this and future iterations like the LED versions 7000 and up. But for the price, this is a great product.
