Totally Awesome Picture

When I went looking for my new TV, I didn't have a particular brand in mind. I went there with a open mind looking for the best picture quality, features and ease of use. When I finally came across the LN52A650 I was blown away. This TV has it all. Aside from having the best picture I have ever seen, It has Info Link which I sure do use. Connections were a breeze and forget everything you have heard about speakers with A monster TV like this you have to run it through a surround sound system, even when you are watching regular TV just switch your receiver to 2 channel audio it's awesome. Words can't describe this TV get one today and experience it for yourself you won't beleive it. I just went and purchased the LN37A550 for my bedroom, don't worry my spare bedrooms are getting Samsungs' in them also.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I did extensive research before purchasing this LCD. Received great reviews on many sites. I think Samsung makes the best LCDs! I gotta get Blu-Ray and surround sound to really maximize my enjoyment...

52A650 Top Rated by Consumer Reports

This set is almost perfect in every respect. CR had it rated as #1 within the 52" LCD class in late 2008. Here's my take on it.
The picture is great, the presets don't need to be changed, they got it right on this set. I'm only using Component Video cables from my DVD player and its still amazing, can't wait to upgrade to HDMi cables.
On-screen menu's are easy to use. Variety of inputs/outputs is plentiful. The 'Touch of Color,' in this case the color red they infused into the frame is appealing, although still looks black in dark rooms.
The remote is very simple to use, and lites up in the dark. My only complaint is the iPod like track wheel is a little unresponsive.
CR also left out the glare issue on the screen from bright lite sources in the room. This however can be alleviated by careful placement and blocking out the bright lite sources. Viewing at night is flawless!!!
All in all, this set is worth the investement, I would highly recomment it to anyone! Samsung in general has done very well in the Consumer Reports Ratings of LCD TV's at all sizes. Enjoy!!!

The new standard for television

The best product you could find for the money. Outstanding color saturation and contrast detail. No problems with bluring from fast action signals. The most pleasant surprise was sound quality, I have a Samsung HT-X810T theater hooked to it but seldom use it for regular braodcasting. You simply don't need it!!

Awesome TV

"I just bought this TV and I feel like this was a great investment for our home theater. Picture quality is tops and it has very nice features.
You can view the picture from all sides of the room without any problems. We hooked up our Playstation 3 to it and it is awesome to play video games on it and to watch blu-ray movies on it. The picture is so clear, you feel like you are part of the movie. The only regret I have is I wish we could have afforded a bigger TV."

Should have upgraded long ago......

This TV is wonderful. I was a little worried about the Touch of Color but after reading other reviews and seeing the TV in my home it is not a factor. Very crisp picture and user friendly. Still trying to fine tune because there are so many options to change, but not overwhelming.
I upgraded from an analog TV to this digital, HD model and it was well worth it. These TVs are like computers and you have to pay for the technology, good thing though the prices are coming down on TVs just like computers have also come down in price. The wheel on the remote is also easy to get comfortable with unlike some of the reviews I read. Thanks Samsung and that non-profit review magazine for your input!
