Samsung LN40A650 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color

The 650 was a decent TV. It produced some amazing colors and definitely looks amazing if the video source is up to it. As much as I enjoyed the TV, I had to return it recently because of the clouding that was prominent in dark lighting conditions. My set also had purple tinting but I'm told that this is a manufacturing defect and not all sets have this. The motion handling was disappointing. Movies and games looked great until you watched a scene with fast movement. The motion handling on the set as poor and caused a lot of unsightly blur.

I wish the set didn't have these glaring problems as it was amazing otherwise. It seems like LCD tech is flawed in those regards. I've returned the set and will probably get a plasma. But, if you're in the market for an LCD, I recommend the LNA650 as it's one of the best LCDs for the price range and is definitely a good quality set. Just make sure you can live with the problems inherent with current LCDs.

Well I bought this TV because of all the "GOOD" reviews, I dismissed the few bad reviews as flukes. Well I loved the TV, then about a month into it the screen crapped out, still in the shop getting fixed they have to replace the whole LCD panel. They say it will be 3 more weeks till I get it back. I thought this was a good brand but I guess not. The TV will be in the shop longer then in my living room. I have called the service center twice, the first time to tell them the TV was broke, the second today to express my displeasure with the time it will take to fix the problem. My problem is that if this happens one month from buying this P.O.S. what will happen in 2 years. I asked if maybe i got a lemon and they tried to sell me an extended warranty. This really made me real mad, as if I was gonna drop a couple hundred more into this piece of junk, what a joke. If I could do it over I would not have purchased this set, I have learned my lesson never buy SAMSUNG. Hope this helps someone I hardly ever write reviews.

I was looking for the best out there and I took a very long time to decide which one will fit my room and my budget. I compare and compare, I walk into many electronic stores and compare the prices and Amazon beats them all. The price is right and it had everything I wanted. The specs are amazing!!! I am extremely satisfied with my purchase through Amazon.com and I will do it again in a heart beat!

This TV exceeded my expectations. At first I was having buyer's remorse...I have never bought something so expensive but after hooking it up to my ps3 and watching blu-ray on it all my regrets were gone. I walked around the Sony store and say TVs going for 2000+ and I was very unimpressed by them in comparison to mine. Now all I need is a surround sound system.

I bought this after way too much research. I decided to splurge on the 650 over the 550 after going to Best Buy and seeing them side by side. I am happy I spent the extra money. The picture on this TV is so good, it ruins movies by making them too realistic. I have never seen anything like it.

I wonder about the tvs that Samsung offers that are a step up from this. I cannot imagine anything better unless it was 3D or came with pole dancing strippers. The remote and menus are great.

My only complaint about the unit is that the screws were way too hard to get out from the base in order to mount it on the wall. Took about 30 minutes to unscrew 4 screws because they wouldnt fall out. I finally had to shake the tv to get them out. Very frustrating first experience.

Also, white glove service is a joke. They basically take the box away and thats it. Dont expect them to mount it or show you anything.

I bought the $3 HDMI. I wasnt sure if this was the right move but like i said, i cant imagine a better picture so i doubt i will spring for the monster one. Get it and dont look back!
