User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars One of the best 52″ 1080p LCD TV on the market
The TV is very easy to setup. The picture quality is fantastic. Before the purchase, we compared this model to other brands and found the Samsung had the best picture quality. The contrast is very good on this TV. Highly recommended!
5 Stars Complete Awesomeness!
I purchased this T.V. for my husband about two months ago. We love it! I did a lot of research and discovered that this would be the best T.V. for our apartment. It is just the right size and has excellent picture quality. For those people who don’t know all that much about electronics this T.V. is great; it is easy to set up, easy to use, Samsung products have always lasted a long time for me, and the price is definitely worth it all. All men love this T.V. and our house is quickly becoming the place everyone loves to gather. I also got the Samsung upconverting DVD player free with the purchase of the T.V. and that is also extremely easy to use. Let me reccommend that if you are considering this T.V. no need to look any further, take the plunge and make the purchase…you will be happy you did!
5 Stars Very Good TV
I purchased this TV about 2 months ago from Amazon and would recommend them over anyone else. You wouldnt believe the people that come over and drool over this TV. I recently hooked my laptop to this Tv so I can play netflix movies and do homework and it is the greatest. But best of all my PS3 looks really good on this TV too. I compared the Sony and Samsung together and yes there is a slight difference but, price was the biggest difference. If Sony came down and did a price match I would consider them but, they didnt and I am happy with my SAMSUNG. Also I had a samsung TV that lasted me 16 years which was great.
5 Stars Great TV, great price, no complaints
This TV has exceeded my expectations. I’ve had it over 7 months and I still find it amazing. It works great for games as well as blu-ray.
Oddly, glare from the shiny screen has not been a problem for me. On a bright day I occasionally turn up the backlight to see the darkest colors in certain games, but I think this is more a function of the physics of the human eye adjusting to light and not anything to do with the shiny screen. By the opposite token, nitpickers may complain that the darkest blacks aren’t pitch black in a *darkened* room, but this isn’t very noticeable except in credits or in dark horror films/games. The price difference between this and the next model up doesn’t justify the small advantage of ultra-dark blacks to to me. I used that savings to get a PS3 on which to view blu-ray disks.
If you can call it a drawback, this TV doesn’t feature 120hz technology, which gives live action movies a home video look and cg movies a video game look - neither of which looks “right” to me.
1 Star Don’t buy from Out of the Attic
I never received the TV from the merchant, Out of the Attic, and after three attempts to contact them, they still never responded. Fortunately, Amazon refunded my money, though. I noticed another customer review with almost the exact same problem, but I gave the merchant one more chance. Well, it looks like I’ve confirmed that this is either the most unreliable merchant or they don’t even exist. I strongly caution anyone from buying from them, and I suggest Amazon drop them as one of their merchants.
