Date: 2008-11-02 REVIEW OF SAMSUNG LN52A650 LCD HDTV THIS TV IS AMAZING! DELIVERY WAS RIGHT ON TIME AND WELL DONE. THE PACKAGING IS VERY CONSUMER-FRIENDLY. EASY SET-UP. TOOK ABOUT ONE HOUR TO READ THE INSTRUCTION BOOK AND FINE-TUNE THE SET-UP(I AM A TECHNOLOGICAL CRIPPLE). THE HD PICTURE IS SCARY GOOD! I RECOMMEND THIS SET TO ANYONE. AND AMAZON'S PRICE, SERVICE, AND CUSTOMER RELATIONS ARE UNBEATABLE. GET THIS SET TODAY!!! Date: 2008-11-02 Samsung LN52A650 52-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color So far, so good. Great looking picture. Looks just as good as a friend's Pioneer Elite Plasma at about 1/4 the price. Amazon shipped it promptly and was delivered and set up to make sure that it worked by trained people that knew what they were doing. I would certainly not hesitate to buy another TV in the future from Amazon and save hundreds of dollars off retain in stores. Date: 2008-11-02 Great TV - Poor delivery I've only had this set for a few days, but it certainly lives up to what others are saying here - not much to complain about. The delivery, however, was another matter. The Amazon web site said that Ceva would be providing the "white glove" delivery service, including carrying up stairs, unpacking it, setting it on a stand, and removal of the box. What actually happened was that Amazon hired a company called Pilot (Eagan, MN) to do the delivery. The one guy that drives the truck was reluctant to carry it up the 10 steps from my driveway to the front door, but did it anyway, saying that "We're really not supposed to do this". When he got it to the front door, I pointed to the TV stand in my living room 15 feet away. He said "This is as far as I go." I showed him the printout from the Amazon site about the "white glove" service. He said he knew nothing about that. It was only after I refused to take delivery of the set that he called his boss on his cell. The boss said that the delivery guy would have to do what Amazon promised, except that I had to help lift it onto the stand and he still refused to carry away the box. A very unsatisfying way to start the experience with my new TV. Lessons learned: * Print a copy of the Amazon listing, especially the page describing what the delivery man has to do. * Anyone who expects a good delivery experience should contact Amazon directly to make sure that their web site's claims will be honored by their delivery service. Date: 2008-11-02 Perfect TV Purchase I has been a month since I have the TV. The rave reviews at Amazon gave me the confidence to purchase the biggest ticket item I ever bought through the Internet. I chose the Samsung LN52A650 model after months of research and contemplation. The CNET's Editor's Choice award helped too. I bought it with the Samsung Blu-ray player with an extra $200 off. What a deal to get HD movie quality! The picture quality is wonderful, clear, accurate color, etc. It is even spectacular after adjusting the settings recommended by CNET. For the price, I believe that the Samsung LN52A650 is a much better buy than the Sony's. I could see that the glossy screen might be a problem for others in bright settings. However, this is not a problem for me as the TV is in part of my basement that is away from windows. The CEVA delivery went very smoothly without any problem. I got a call from them as soon as the TV was at the delivery center. They delivered the TV in the time slot they said they would come. There were two guys, not just one guy as in some of the reviews mentioned here. They unpacked the TV and brought it to where I wanted to put in the basement. They helped me hooked it up and tested it before they left. This was a perfect purchase. No regrets! Thank you, Amazon for a perfect purchase. Date: 2008-11-01 Speechless I have nothing but positive words to say about this TV. Picture is awesome. Delivery was without a hitch. Price beat out any retail outlet by a long shot. Very impressed with Samsung quality, would recommend this 650 Series over 550 Series because of picture quality. Do not hesitate on spending more for this series because it is worth the money. I almost purchased the 46 inch instead of the 52 inch. I installed the tv above my fireplace and am so glad that I went with the 52 instead. In closing I would have to tell everyone to purchase through Amazon. Honestly I was a little hesitant about purchasing online, but 5 stars to Amazon.
