"I know that I wrote what was great about this tv was the picture clarity, and it is.Unfortunately what ruins this tv is the dreaded "halo effect."Do you really want to spend $2100 dollars on a television and have the screen reflect off the bezel that in turn bleeds over the line's on the side of your tv. What you get is a horrible defect. I strongly suggest that you go with the samsung 550,650,or 850 series. Per..." Read Full Review
"Don't be hesitant wondering if this is the right TV..it is. And even the wise link and info link technologies are easy to set up. The picture is as if being there. Especially true when watching Blu-Ray, colors are so deep, distinct, and crisp. I've heard others complain about the sound, but I am not experiencing any problems with he sound. If leaning toward an extended warranty I would suggest checking directly with the warranty companies or [...] to save a few dollars. Delivery was smooth, no problems. I am definitely glad I chose this TV. Go ahead, do it!! You will not have one second of buyers remorse."
Pros:
"The best picture on an LCD I have seen yet, I like it better than the Sony XBR4 line. Color accuracy is just amazing. Plenty of HDMI and Component connections as well as a LAN connection to attach it to your home network for streaming media and some basic internet information such as local news and weather.
There is some screen reflection, but the TV I replaced was a glass picture tube so I really do not notice it."
Pros:
"I think I am the 107th person to review thie TV and give it 5 stars. Doesn't that tell you something? Excellent picture, easy to use and you do not have to be tech savy to utilize the special functions of internet and pc sharing functions. The remote is a bit bulky and difficult to handle but is configured well and back lit to see what choices are there. Picture quality with a DVD and a good strong HD signal is almost Blu-Ray.... Blu-Ray is almost life like as if being there. Sound quality for me is fine for regular program watching but can always be enhanced with the use of a amp/receiver/ home theatre system when watching DVD, HD, or Blu-Ray.I bought mine from Abe's [...] If buying from some of the big internet suppliers, you can save a few bucks by shopping for an extended warrantly directly from the warranty companies or [...] for that matter as Abe's is a bit pricey. When I registered ownership with Samsung's website, they gave me an extra 3 months of warranty. Go ahead...make the plunge...you won't regret it."
Pros:
"I had been in the market for a new HDTV for quite sometime. I am not a supporter of any particular brand so to speak but have had very good experiences with Sony electronics. So I wanted to make sure the Sony brand was part of the mix. When I ran into this particular Samsung model I was initially impressed with the picture. I walked into Best Buy and was drawn to it immediately. When standing back looking at the screens I found myself always saying the same things "This one is a bit clearer, brighter and crisp from multiple angles." After shopping around town and comparing the TV with others in its class I found no other HDTV that could match or beat the picture of the Samsung line. I was ultimately torn between the Samsung LCD (52") and the Pioneer Plasma (50"). When it came right down to it I scrutinized the details of each unit. I looked at what both models offered as far as ease of use and overall technology and quality. What helped make my decision was the fact that (I believe) the LCD had a slightly better picture and the touch and remote controls of the Samsung flowed better. I was really convinced when I seen the built in content that the Samsung offered (it is amazing). If you have a chance to see one of these in person before you buy. I would suggest taking a closer look to see what best fits you and the area that you are going to use it in. Also a plus for me was the fact that the LCD uses a lot less power over the life of the TV (again in my opinion... to produce a better picture) which will also save you more money over time."
Pros:
"Setup much easier than anticipated. Just have HDMI cables ready - one for TV to cable box and another for DVD to TV. The sound is quite acceptable without extra speakers. Having researched models to death, the Samsung 750 is a great combination of latest meaningful technology and price. The 850 is a couple of inches narrower and the 950 has a screen 3" larger than my 52" and LED features, but I can't see the ever-so-slight differences in picture quality for another $1800 in price. Looked at Sony's KDL 4100 series also but felt the Sammy's connectivety features won out over all by very small margin."
Pros:
"I had been watching sales and keeping up with popular models at my warehouse club for a year or more and finally decided on the Samsung LN52A750R. You have to acknowledge that 99% of the reviews (I've read over 100) say this TV is FANTASTIC. They are absolutely correct! The few who said the audio was just OK, must have had a great surround sound system, because the audio is really good. Way better than any TV I've ever owned. A plain, low profile wall mount places the rear of the TV close to the wall, where the speakers face. This could compromise the audio. I have an articulated wall mount (tilts & swivels) which keeps the back of the TV at least 4 - 6 inches away from the wall, so audio is fine. The picture is so clear and sharp it looks like 3D sometimes and I have yet to upgrade to HD programming! I'm not sure why, but I'm glad Sony doesn't dominate the large flat panel TV market. The Sony TVs I compared to the Samsung, were noticeably inferior, and cost alot more! The Samsung remote does take a little getting used to but the backlight button is really nice in a dark room. [...] I considered the 860 model: it's main feature is that it's only 1.9" thick and ~10 lbs. lighter than the 750. Makes me wonder if the took some sort cuts to make it smaller. This Samsung 750 is the TV to get and Abe's is a great place to get it."
Pros:
Cons:
"This is my first HDTV, having made my old 26" CRT last as long as possible until my ideal television came down in price. It finally did and the Samsung is it!
This is one incredible television: 1080p resolution, incredibly bright and sharp, with plenty of connections. I had no problem connecting a DVD player, Wii console, Roku (Netflix box), and a laptop computer.
The remote is easy to use and well laid out. I had read about other's dissatisfaction with the remote's unique wheel control, but as I found out you can either spin the wheel or click on the desired side a couple of times to accomplish the same thing. Yes there's some delay but it's tolerable.
I would highly recommend this product (and OneCall) to anyone. In fact, my best friend is now seriously considering one for his home.
We initiated the television with a Lord of the Rings marathon. Unfortunately, it wasn't until the third movie that I realized I needed to set the output of the DVD player to 16:9. Once I did this, we got a better image and it filled the full screen. Upscaling of the DVD player's component output by the television appears to be very good, though I couldn't say whether the upscaling is done by the DVD player or the television."
Pros:
"After lots of research, I decided to purchase the Samsung LN52A750. I thought it had the best balance of features and most "bang for the buck". I could not be happier. The picture looked fabulous at BB and looks even better in my living room. [...] setup was a no-brainer. The HD channels on Time Warner look fabulous (Battlestar Galactica never looked so good on SciFi HD). I especially love the feature that allows you to plug a USB drive on the side of the unit (WiseLink Pro) to play DivX videos (it supports other codecs as well). I have a large collection of DivX movies and it's so easy to play them on here. The unit can display three feeds from USA Today: Weather, News, and Stocks. These will appear as overlays on top of whatever the TV is displaying. It also comes with software to install on a PC that allows the unit to access multimedia files on the network. Awesome!I liked the remote (long and thin) and was able to master all its controls in about 2 days.The unit has an abundance of connections on the back and side including four HDMI ports. If you want to blow your friends and family away with the picture quality, watch a Blu-Ray animated feature on this set. Wow.About the only weak point on this set is the audio speakers, but you should be using an external home theater speaker system with something like this anyway."
Pros:
"We use the SAMSUNG for viewing HD TV and home movies. Everyone has commented on what a great picture. My friend who installs hi-end in-home theater systems gave high praise to my choice of sets. Consumer Reports also had good reviews which the TV lives up to.One family member thought the default brightness setting may be too bright, but you're able to control that. People, gardens,...almost seem too real. I read one review to turn off the 120Hz on certain material, but I haven't found that necessary.[...] It's still working fine with 30 days of heavy use...past the burn-in period for most failures.Wall mount: A great deal from Abe's. I upgraded to a better wall mount at the rep's suggestion(didn't feel it was a bait and switch) but thought it would be thinner than described. I also had some confusion on the tilt capability (side-to-side/up-down)--he was referencing side to side while I was picturing up/down.HDMI cable: Didn't work which caused a rise in blood pressure thinking the TV may have been at fault. When the component cables worked, I narrowed it down to a bad HDMI cable which I swapped out and everyting worked fine.Extended 5 yr Warrenty: I checked the website and I'm still uncertain if there really is a local repair capability for in-house support. [...]"
