Samsung HL50A650 50-Inch 1080p Slim DLP HDTV

I ordered a 50in. Samsung DLP HDTV 1080p and was very surprised how well packed it came to my home. I was skeptical in ordering this product for fear something could go wrong with the shipping. I already belonged to a satellite service company, and all I had to do was call them and they came out and changed over the box and dish and set everything up HD for me. Would recommend anyone interested in ordering to do so.

I have had the HL50A650 for one month. The picture quality is as good as any plasma or lcd hdtv that I have seen. There is no trace of bluring or loss of resolution in high movement movies such as Transformers.

The Amazon price for this hdtv was competitive and much, much less than the other technologies.

The picture needed very little adjustment during setup which was extremely easy. The only aspect which required some thought was getting the picture format correct for my cable as I do not subscribe to the high definition channels and must up sync sdtv.

As with all DLP there is a foreshortened viewing angle so the TV horizontal centerline should be mounted at eye level.

I am going to purchase the 3D accessory so that when the hdtv 3d format is instituted I can view them on this set.

First, I would like to say that I love this TV. It has everything that I expected and then some. I was concerned that the Dlp would not look as good as a LCD or Plasma...boy was I wrong! This TV looks great. HD channels look amazing, Bluray movies look outstanding and my PS3 looks surperb (this tv is made for gaming). The Dlp comes with all the hookups one could possibly need (including 3 HDMI inputs).

I have only had this tv for a short time but I know I will be enjoying it for a very long time to come. I am not a videophile so I don't look for flaws, I just attempt to enjoy my new purchase for its intended purposes. The HD Cable from Comcast looks stunning although its displayed in 1080i resolution. I chose to go with the HDMI hookup from the cable box to the tv to eliminate the cord clutter, hey as long as it looks good I'm sure enough okay with it. The Xbox 360 60 GB with HDMI hooked up to this tv through the many HDMI ports on this tv is AWESOME. I noticed as soon as my tv was delivered Amazon dropped the price of this set a little over $169.00 and I'm trying to see if I may be able to get a refund which would be SWEET! All in all I really enjoy this Samsung 50" DLP tv, it fits perfectly on the 50" tv stand I bought for it. I will always buy my big ticket items from Amazon because I believe their product inventory and their prices are the best on the web.

This TV is great. Large screen, great colors, bright, etc. The size to price ratio is just right for those of us on a budget. Two thumbs up.
