Date: 2008-12-01 Outstanding !!!!! First time purchasing with Amazon, very, very, pleased with the entire experience. Saved a bundle of money on shipping costs, and the product was far less than retail store competitors. Friends & family can't believe the picture, just outstanding! Recommend to anyone looking to score a beautiful LCD HDTV. Personally love the Red Touch of Color, looks fabulous with our red mahogany furniture. Date: 2008-12-01 Great TV with a "Little" Problem GOOD NEWS: Make no mistake, the A650 is a great TV. BAD NEWS: the A650 developed a glitch on the screen shortly after I purchased it from Amazon. GOOD NEWS: going online to Samsung.com got me an extra 3 months on my warranty. BAD NEWS: Samsung.com customer support sucks. It took weeks to finally get a repairman in. GOOD NEWS: the A650 got fixed (it took two visits by the repairman to figure out what was wrong (the display) but he got it working and it looks great). Date: 2008-11-30 Far surpassed my expectations! This TV is definitely at the top of its class. I own an older model Samsung (LN4041), which is a 720p unit, and it was time to upgrade to a 1080. I have been looking at this LN52A650 for quite some time, comparing it to other manufacturers and models, and checking prices. The 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 120HZ, and 4ms response put it at the top of my list. When I finally bought it, I couldn't wait for it to arrive! On the scheduled delivery day, I was told to expect delivery between 11am and 3pm, with a call 30 minutes prior to arrival. That call came at 10am - earlier than I expected, but fine with me! At 10:30, they arrived. The delivery men brought it into my living room, unpacked it, put it on the stand, plugged it in, opened the remote, put the batteries in, and handed it to me. After verifying that the TV works, I signed their paperwork and they were on their way - about 10 - 15 minutes, and back to work for me. When I got home that night, I couldn't wait to finish the installation. I have a wall mount for this, and all I had to do was take the old one down and put the new one up. Well the old TV is pretty light (about 50 pounds), so it came down easily. Well this new one is much bigger and heavier! It took about 6 tries before I got it hung on the wall mount, and I was pretty tired afterwards. It was recommended that I have help doing this, but I didn't think I needed it. Looking back, I now recommend a second person. The last thin you would want to do is drop your new $2000 TV while installing it. Once installed and connected, I turned on my new TV!! The last channel I was watching was Spike HD, so that's the first thing that came on. Star Wars III was playing when my new TV booted up, and let me tell you, the picture and sound were simply AMAZING!! It looks 100 times better than my other TV. I'm not sure if it's the 720 vs 1080 or the size difference (or both), but I couldn't be happier with it. Every channel, whether HD or not, looks incredible. The controls are pretty straight-forward. I didn't need to read through the manual to figure out the basics, although the manual is well-written. I also have a Samsung blu-ray player, and it still auto-detects it even though it is plugged into my Sony receiver. I have the TV hard-wired to my internet router, and it easily set itself up. So far, after 2 weeks, I can't find anything negative to say about the LN52A650. I looked at the A750 also, but the only difference between them was the additional storage capacity, which I don't need. Also, the A750 does not included picture-in-picture, and while I don't use that feature much, I want to have the option. If you're thinking about buying this TV, I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed. Date: 2008-11-29 just what the doctor ordered Must admit i was worried about buying something like this online. But have no fear Amazon came through with flying colors. Speaking of colors all i can say is WOW this t.v is awesome it really delivers the goods. I did a lot of research and had decided this was the one for me. Delivery was as promised and i did purchase some 1.3 hdmi cables from amazon for 10.00 bucks a piece and they work great with my blu-ray and yahama rec. with hdmi and 1080 passthrough. sports , movies hdtv and even basic cable stuff looks sooooo good. You can plug in almost anything to it to. DONT BE AFRAID I RECCOMMEND IT HIGHLY Date: 2008-11-29 Samsung LN52A650 The Samsung LN52a650 is a excellent television. The features are outstanding. The picture quality is excellent.I am very satified with this purchase. I would recomend this tv to anyone that is looking for a great picture plus it only uses one third the power as plasma.
