This TV is a bit more than I needed, but I know that going into purchasing.

I like the there is no red color in the bezel. The picture is very good, it really feels that the foreground movement is separated from the background. This gives everything the feel of 3D. I don't know if this is from the motion plus smoothing or if this is normal on newer TVs. It feels weird to watch, but I might get used to it.

The widgets and add-ons are neat, but gimmicky. The processing behind them is slow so there is a lot of lag in the controls.

The media connectivity to me seems pretty aweful. THere may be some settings I have not found yet, but I tried to play a DIVX TV show from my computer using the software provided. The TV played the video but the aspect ratio was way off, it placed the video in the center of the screen, it was very small as well. In comparison if I play the same video from my PlayStation 3 it looks fantastic on the screen.

The connection options are fantastic, lots of choices.

The delivery process was great. They brought the TV to where I wanted it, but did not wait for me to plug it in and test as others had stated.

Picture: looks great for blu-ray movies and the few HD channels that I pull in without a box.

Sound: I do not use the built in speakers

Extras: widgets and extras are neat, but gimmicky, slow, and not terrible useful.

Value: A little expensive, but it's a new TV so thats to be expected, I feel that it is worth what I paid.

Clean, bright and sleek design on top of the impeccable digital images of the TV is flawless. And the rest comes easy and simple for your viewing pleasure and I guess that’s why the Samsung LCD HDTV is number one.

I saw the high ratings Samsung gets, and chose this model for the 240Hz, 2 ms response, 150,000:1 contrast, and a price within my budget of $1475 on 6/19/09. Amazon delivered in 5 days by a shipper called Pilot, who set it up in one minute. The packaging is a tech marvel – 4 handles lock the top to the bottom, just 2 foam corners, no outer box needed, easy to save in case of return.

NOW for the dizzying array of connections. I’m all for it. But I had no clue which cables to buy, even just for my cable box (hey, I’m 62). I wish that the info I received with the TV had been in the specs online and that there was just one sentence saying ‘research cables you will need.’ Still trying to sort it all out. The picture has a sort of 3D look and nice glow and I’m assuming it will be sharp when I get the cable.

Bought this TV in May, received it in June, and by August the TV failed.
Called Sumsung customer service, got a flippant response from a customer service representative who seemed more concerned with her hair weave and fake nails than with helping me out with my TV.
Called the "local" (next state over) Samsung service representative who said they would not be able to service my TV until next week.
Good job Samsung..... great product, great service!
