Great TV for the price

I have had this TV for only 24 hours but as of know I really like the picture quality. The only down fall is the number of input options that are Available. Should have tleast 3 HD and 2 sets for jacks. Thank goodness for splitters!
So far I'm on day two of my purchase of this tv. My wife and I are avid moviegoers. I actually purchased her current tv about 10 years ago when we were both in college (Sansui, i know but hey, I was a poor college kid), so it was certainly a pleasure to be able to get this as an upgrade.
So far, the tv has been great. It has enough HDMI ports for my pc and xbox 360 (two). The usb port with the media player is awesome. I added a 500GB portable hard drive and pulled up all of my videos, music, and pictures. The interface is also nice. My ONLY critique here is that I wish you could switch back and forth from an icon to a list view, which would help when viewing folders with several files. Hopefully this will be on a firmware upgrade.
The screen? AMAZING! Colors are vivid, I looked all over between SEVERAL tv's, checking reviews online, and the tv's in person. And the detail is excellent. Wow is all we could say. No bleed on the edges as some other tv reviews had. We're pretty picky about the crispness and true color reproduction of the tv because we watch a ton of HGTV and Food Network. And of course, I watch a ton of sports. With some simple adjusting, the blacks were perfectly black and detailed and the whites were not warm or tinted with blue as some reviewers sad before. Again, I recommend you get the latest firmware upgrade, as this might affect the picture quality.
Last but not least, the built-in speakers were actually shockingly good. With the Tru surround on, we can watch regular programming without the home theater system.
I plan to update this review as we use the tv more. I'm not really a smart tv person. A tv, at it's best, should have an excellent screen and offer me multiple ways to connect other devices. This tv does that, and that's as smart as we need our tv to be.
This is an excellent tv.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight, media player interface
I would recommend this to a friend!

Had purchased the 47 inch version of this set, but it was too large for the space we intended for it, so I looked for the little brother of that model. Wow, same incredible picture. We already had a smart blu ray player, so we didn't need that in the TV. Just a great product and a vast improvement over our previous non-Samsung LCD set. Absolutely no comparison. Will be a loyal Samsung buyer from now on.
We purchased this television nearly one month ago to replace a 22 year old console that finally died. The console was having issues for a couple of weeks and I knew we needed a new one, so I began studying current Samsung models. I knew from the start that we would go with Samsung because we are so pleased with the 46" LCD we purchased two years ago. I am amazed at how clear and crisp the LED picture is. Assembly and connection couldn't have been easier. The hardest part of this purchase was finding a TV stand to match our furniture. We are so pleased with Samsung that we don't even look at other companies when making purchases such as this.
Up until now have been watching a 32 inch "other" brand in my bedroom since I did not believe that I could find a larger panel that would fit in the cabinet with a better picture.
Boy was I wrong, This Samsung fits beautifully, has an outstanding and amazing picture. The increased size of the screen is wonderful after squinting to see the channel guide all of these years. Can not say enough about how incredible the picture quality is, and how great it is to find a set this size that has such a high quality picture, that was able to fit in the cramped cabinet size that was available.
Really super easy to set up, did not need help to lift it into the cabinet. Out of the box, connected, calibrated, and watching in under 30 minutes.
Pros: Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, size, sleek, excellent quality for the price
