I bought this item through Amazon from OneCall due to a better price at the time. (I buy in USA & ship to Trinidad)I am an Amazon Prime customer & if I purchased from Amazon directly there may have been some redress. So, I have to live with the black spots on my screen.oh well, you live & you learn.My only other comment is that the audio quality should be better. I like the TV, but my unit came with blemishes (small dark smudges) on the screen. SAMSUNG does not provide a warranty for international customers who purchase from the USA.
They still have a few limitations. Game systems look great, no motion blur. I watch alot of movies and had been using a DLP projector setup in My living room. I finally decided to ditch the projector to move to a LCD/Plasma. I was concerned with contrast, but watching dark movies has been great, i see no loss of detail in shadows or dark spots. There where several 720p ones for "almost" resonable prices. I had no interest in rear projection TV's from my past viewings of them.
I have a PC hooked up and the Picture and text is clear. I was unsure of the picture quality (once again from my time with older projection sets) but this TV is excellent.
Well after pricing 50"+ LCD's and Plazmas i was in sticker shock. Once placed on a 2 foot tall stand it works perfect for me and I have no problems with viewing angle.
The size of a DLP projector is hard to beat if setup properly but the downsides are ambiant light, pull down screens or blank walls. Viewing angle, to high or to low, or to far to a side will make the picture dark or faded looking.
Overall I'm 100% satisified with this TV and am glad i got the extra size. I currently have a Samsung 37" LCD in my bedroom and love it.
But since i use it for gameing and computer also i prefered the 1080P (native 1920X1080) which jumped the price quite a bit.
I echo some of the same thoughts as previous posters. For the first few weeks, I found it somewhat distracting, but I've gotten used to it (had the TV for almost 3 months now). However, given that this TV was 20 - 30% cheaper online than in the big box stores, I decided to give it a go.I placed the order online on Sunday, 1/20 and the TV arrived on Thursday, 1/24.
The only complaint I have about the picture is the silk-screen effect (SSE). I still notice it now, but I find that once I get absorbed into the program I'm watching, that I don't really notice it.Overall, this is a good TV at a great price. So far, I am the only one of dozens of people I've had over to watch the TV that has been able to notice it.
Being the first time I purchased an item this big/expensive online, I was a little hesitant at first. The picture is awesome, I can't believe how good HD looks (this being my first HDTV). The only reason I can't give it 5 stars is because of the somewhat-annoying silk-screen effect.
Everything was in perfect condition and I had no problems with the tracking, delivery and setup of the TV.Now, onto the TV itself. The sound on this TV is weak.
I was on and off of hold for 40 minutes because their computers were not working. It is a very good picture when it's working, but I'm now wondering if I made the right decision to go projection if these lamps are going to be a problem.
I regret not doing so. Also, if your looking at this TV, spend the extra few bucks for the 61".
My TV was delivered just after Christmas 2007 from Amazon. I'm very disappointed to have problems like this already after spending so much money for a TV.
All being said, I wish I had gone with a plasma. I had to call Samsung today because the brightness decreased considerably, and peoples faces were green after only four months of operation.
I might add I haven't even used this TV that much because I have a Samsung LCD that I watch most of the time.
Would reccomend this unit and amazon to everybody Best HD picture i have seen yet, incredible.Delivered as promised with no catches.
