Impressed!
I just received my new Samsung yesterday. I ordered the TV from Amazon on Monday morning, and received it on Wednesday! I am still getting familiar with the TV, but so far I'm very happy with it. I don't have my HDMI cable yet, so I'm only watching it with an analog picture, but only until tomorrow. Even in analog it looks great! The touch of red along the edge of the frame looks very nice, not overpowering at all.

I am going to have the TV wall mounted above my fireplace in the next few weeks. I'm looking forward to showing it off, and enjoying lots of good movies! Thanks to all the other reviewers that helped me to make this good choice!

Super TV!
At first, my eyes had to adjust to the vibrant colors in the tv and is still trying to adjust. It's so different from watching our analog brand, which I love and still use. It shows fantastic except a surround system was added to improve the sound. This tv is my husbands and he loves it. We bought our set from another retailer, but Amazons price is better for this set. Other retailers are higher. Buy from Amazon, and save some money.

Great TV
This a very nice looking TV and the picture is excellent. I like the slight hint of Red around the frame. Using free shipping was a good choice, delivery was quick. Received a phone call the day it arrived and was deliverd the next day to my living room.

Con, it has a annoying sound when you turn it on and off. Wish I could turn it off or at least turn the volume down.. I don't need the audio to let me know I turned on the TV, I pushed the power button on the remote.

Awesome TV!
I bought this TV to replace a Samsung LNS4051D that had developed a line in the display across the full width of the screen. I was very happy that I had purchased the extended warranty that Amazon offered in Jan. 2007.

This TV cost $2 less than the old one. I am blown away by difference in the picture quality, clarity, and brightness. I currently do not own a Blue Ray player, but an upconvert DVD player. Watching DVD's on this TV is amazing compared to the previous Samsung I owned. I can't wait to get a Blue Ray player to take full advantage of this TV.

There is also a noticeable improvement in the audio of this one. Since it is the TV in my bedroom, I do not plan to use a 5.1 surround system with it.

2 years ago, I imagine that something like this would have probably cost around $3000. You can't go wrong with buying this TV.

Amazon beat most retailers sale prices by $300. Plus there was no sales tax, and free shipping. Ordered it on October 28, had it on November 1. Can't say enough good things about Amazon.

This is a great TV. I replaced a 32" Samsung 1080i and the improvement is dramatic. The improvement goes well beyond the size. The colors stand out, the contrast is terrific and the resolution is unequaled. Watching this year's world series was a joy. The picture is so clear you can see individual whiskers on facial close-ups or, during the world series, individual rain drops.

I thought the touch of color was actually subtle LED lighting but it is simply a change in the plastic color. Barely noticeable.

The only thing I haven't figure out is how 120hz is activated. Whenever I check settings it says 60hz even though I think I have the set up right. Perhaps it is automatic when screen motion dictates?

Finally, the CEVA delivery was a little frustrating as the TV only had to travel about 90 miles from Harrisburg to South Jersey but it sat in the Harrisburg terminal for a few days. I followed the tracking closely and called CEVA twice and finally picked it up at the South Jersey terminal so I got it 3 days early. Be advise that the shipping container is LARGE and it is not going to fit in most cars. I successfully squeezed in into my Saab 9-5 Aero through the trunk with the back seats folded down.
