User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Outstanding
Outstanding quality of the picture. Colors and clarity are exceptional. Standing in the room with big windows, even then glare is not a problem whatsoever. Highly recommended.

3 Stars Amazing picture but..
This television has an amazing picture but the backlighting for my particular set was off. When a completely dark scene was up the television went black (the deepest black that I have ever seen on a set). However, when a lighter image appeared the backlighting would shift and would have a white tint around all four corners of the set. Once I noticed this that was the only thing that I was looking for and became annoying. I sent the television back because I have an older 46″ Samsung and had to deal with Samsung customer service which was a nightmare. I replaced it with the LG 42SL90. The LG is perfect. This set has an amazing picture, no shifting of the backlight and no white areas. You have to mess with the setting for awhile to get it just right but once that is done the picture is ridiculous.

4 Stars My first HDTV
The picture quality is absolutely fantastic. I have a few things to note for would-be buyers. The buttons on the TV are kind of a pain to use. You can hardly see them and there is no tactile feedback or even a raised bump for the buttons. The internet “widgets” are painfully slow to load. This makes them basically useless to me. The audio out for the headphone jack is independent from the main volume control. This is nice, but it could be a bad thing if your headphones don’t have a volume control. The source select on the TV is odd. Your connected device must me on before it shows up at the top of the list. But for some reason PC/DVI is always there. One last thing: you can’t set the wake-up time on the TV so it turns on with a different source selected. You can only have air or cable selected. So my TV turns on with white snow, then I have to switch the source over to the cable box.

Good TV overall, not perfect, amazing picture. Be careful how you set the “Auto Motion Plus 120Hz” because it can make some video look very weird.

5 Stars LOVE IT!!!!!
Absolutely love this TV!!! One of the best purchases I’ve made, value for price. Amazon delivered it intact. My problems were with FedEx (had multiple problems with them before), who refuse to deliver to my house/guard station in my absence, requiring my having to pick-it up. When I thought the TV stand was defective, they immediately shipped me a replacement part. Assembly was super easy! Up and running in minutes. Great as a computer monitor.

5 Stars Fantastic HDTV
I have had this TV for about six weeks and I am still amazed at the picture quality – simply fabulous. At first I was reluctant to make such an investment without actually seeing the equipment (as it is not yet in retail stores in my area); but after reading many reviews (on Amazon and elsewhere), I decided that there was little risk in buying this TV — I was right. Basic setup was quick and easy (plug it in and connect the HDMI to the cable box/DVR), though the TV has many features and it can take a while to get through all of them. I bought the Samsung Wireless LAN adapter along with the TV and it has been very useful in updating the firmware. The internet icons are interesting, though I’m not sure I will use them very much. Some reviews that I read criticized the sound; I don’t know why — the sound is typical of all current TVs. One can always add external home theater features to enhance the sound to suit one’s needs. To summarize, this is a great TV and worth every penny.
