Date: 2006-01-29 Terrific Projection TV This Samsung is Great. The picture quality is sooooo clear.. and AMAZON.COM has a great price. Shipping and handling with a white glove is excellent. It is a steal price. Amazon price can save me money for more than $700. The TV was easy to set and excellent quality. everything is WOW... I am so Happy!! Date: 2006-01-26 So happy with our new TV Our son just bought us a Samsung HLR5667W DLP television which was ordered from Amazon.com in January. I have to admit we were a little nervous about purchasing such a major item from an internet based company but we worried in vain. Beginning with the fact that the TV arrived 4 days before we expected it, the whole delivery process was phenomenal. Two gentlemen removed the set from the box, brought it in the house and set the whole thing up cables and all. They also gave us plenty of time to look everything over and be sure there were no problems. The picture is so clear and bright and of course there are no words to describe the HD. The price was incredible as even with the shipping charges it was over $800 less than in any local store such as CC, BB or Sears. We decided not to purchase the Extended Warranty but we did register the TV on our Visa and they will give us a second year of warranty at no charge. Visa even offered us a five year from date of purchase plan for $189.00. I guess you can tell we are very pleased with our TV and with the excellent service received from Amazon.com. Date: 2006-01-24 Great TV but... OK here is the deal. I got this TV a week ago. I love the picture. It is amazing. Even my wife who hates 'techy' things likes it. A few things you should be aware of. PIP does not work great. It will not swap the pictures if you are in a digital mode. Very upsetting when you are watching to sports games and you can not get sound from the second game without changing the main channel. The TV Guide is not as good as the one you are use to from your cable provider. A few features have to be accessed from the on screen menu, not the remote. For instance, if you are in digital mode and want to change the channel on the PIP window you need to use a menu. The remote buttons do not work for this in digital mode. All-in-all it is a great TV for the price. Enjoy it. Date: 2006-01-19 Great TV for the price DLP is the best techology for the price. In HD this TV's picture is great. In regular TV it is good. At $1999 plus $200 delivery it was $1000 cheaper than at Best Buy. Delivery service was great. Eventually they will have LED bulbs which will prevent bulb failure. For now, however, unless you want a $4,000 plasma TV this is pretty darn good. Date: 2006-01-16 Great TV. Wonderful for video games!!! I am flabbergasted at the reviews describing "lag-time" on video game play for this set. It is totally incorrect. If you are playing legacy consoles such as PS2, Cube or first gen X-box some of the games cannot be played in 16:9 ratio because the stretching to fit this view distorts certain aspects of the game making it seem to lag. For instance if you are familiar with Mario Golf on the Cube, there is a power bar at the bottom of the screen that determines the strength of the swing. As the meter crosses the screen you have to push the 'A' button at the yard mark for your shot. If you are playing in 16:9 mode it looks like there is lag from the time that you hit the 'A' button and where the meter shows that you hit it, it is just due to the stretching from 16:9 mode. Just change the view to 4:3 and the "problem" is solved. DLP sets are perfect for gaming because of the no 'burn in' design. This is really a great set that looks good and has A+ picture quality. If you are in the market for this type of set I would definitely recommend it. * Price is subject to change. |
