Samsung LN46A530 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV

Samsung has a great product in this big screen LCD. It has been great during this football season. A lot better than my team has been. This big screen LCD is everything it was advertised. It has a much better picture than the Visio for not much more money. The LCD reduces glare incredibly over a previously owned projection HD TV.

The picture on this TV was great but a few days after arrival I noticed a stuck pixel. I did not want a brand new TV with defective pixels, so I called Amazon. They took the TV back and issued a full refund. Amazon has taken the risk and hassle out of shopping on the internet.

Excellent product in all respects. I researched many 46 inch sets and I believe this was the best buy. Very satisfied.

(note: I bought this TV elsewhere, but I am grateful to the Amazon community for its reviews, so I wanted to add one)

I found the process of researching and buying an HDTV to be overwhelming, but I am thrilled with the end result.

The picture quality has been nothing short of stunning. I'm sure that the black levels could be better on a high-end Sony, but for me they are excellent. NBC's coverage of the Olympics has been luxurious to watch. The colors are fantastic.

There are a few times when I notice artifacts, such as with water polo and with the Olympic logo that flashes through between replays, but I can live with it. I actually think that the reason is NBC's 1080i signal, because Fox's 720p signal for football and baseball has been flawlessly smooth.

I am typing this on the TV screen, using it as my computer monitor, which has worked great through both the VGA port and the (DVI-to-)HDMI port. Movies on an upconverting DVD player have looked great, and the big screen is lots of fun with the 480p component signal from our Nintendo Wii.

Sound could be better, with the speakers being in the back as well as the sides, but it's as good as any other TV I've owned. I would get a separate sound system if it really mattered to me.

I found the setup to be easy, and it was a pleasant surprise to see that the TV could pick up the HD local channels through the cable, even though I just have basic standard-definition service. The standard channels are much less attractive than the HD ones, but I'm willing to accept that in order to enjoy the HD.

Knowing that 120hz technology and other features will be coming down in price, I think that this was an excellent purchase in terms of getting a good deal on features that are mature enough to enjoy right now.

i recently bought this tv and let me tell you the image is excellent. i never actually thought that i could get so much quality at this price. the only downturn for me is that is still have a lot of AV devices and this tv lacks on that. i've only found one and it is a side one. so if you are like me (that still has a lot of AV systems) this tv is a bit of a bummer (i hate swapping cables). apart from that the set is great, love the swivel stand. i honestly dont know what good can i get from 120 hz as of today.
