Made the leap to HDTV
By PaxMan
After several years of watching our old Sony 27" TV deteriorate, we decided take a risk and spend what seemed like an outrageous sum to buy this TV. It was definitely the way to go -- great value for the money and it is cool that we are ready whenever the cable/braodcast world goes HD. The color is brilliant, features are extensive (a little confusing at first) -- sound is good even when not using our 5.1 DTS. There is a very explicit warning about "burn-in" from channel logos, tickers, freeze-frame images, etc. but I think (hope) this is easily managed by avoiding such images and adjusting picture size. Also be aware that the picture-in -picture (PIP) is limited in the sense that the TV itself has only one tuner -- but a second source and tuner (like a VCR) should work. We have enjoyed many favorite movies and some new ones too since getting this TV three weeks ago. You will see detail you didn't know existed and discover that those beautiful movie stars actually have complexion problems like the rest of us. We used "The Wizard of Oz" as the benchmark to evaluate this TV, because is is so familiar -- and the richness of this 66-year old classic is nothing short of astounding. Also -- unlike another reviewer reported, our picture needed no adjustment, and the settings you can adjust we did not find difficult to use. A negative: when the delivery folks arrived they did not set up the TV, as promised in the Amazon description. This was the most unnerving aspect of the whole transaction but everything turned out fine. If you love movies this is a terrific TV.

By M. Douglas
My wife and I were looking for a large TV to occupy some serious wall space and were directed by friends to look at DLP for the "long term" benefit. After being warned by several about the dangers of plasma burn-in, and the gaudiness of the old-school rear projection TV, we did some independent research and a lot of store viewings.1. DLP is crummy from any angle other than directly in front. The bulbs range in time from several hundred hours to a couple thousand - which means that during that crucial playoff game, you're back to your old school 25inch CRT, relegated to the guest bedroom tv. That's the real reason you kept her around.2. Rear Projection is pretty much the same, albeit cheaper for the same quality, and should come with a pre-installed Magnum PI and Knight Rider video show because this is the TV of the 80s.3. This newest generation of plasma TVs is less likely to burn-in than my old CRT, and have the means to correct the burn-in if images start to appear at any time. Which means permanent plasma burn-in is BS unless you are an airport, school, or other public information conveyor that never checks their equipment. I checked and we apparently aren't, so we looked closer at the plasma option. Bottom line: Plasma looks brighter, better for longer than any other TV out there. When I'm standing 70 degrees to the side, I can still see the whole picture - when I push the on button, I don't have to wait and pray that the lamps will heat up without popping. And in spite of my love for old school tv shows that will probably never make it to HD, the plasma looks great for anything on it's gloriously sleek screen - standard or hi-def.Samsung has a winner here - the TV was cheaper than I could buy on a military base without tax, and it was delivered quickly and took almost no time to set up. There are plenty of connection options, and the menu options for setup are so simple, I can actually understand them. The TV was 90 lbs - so it isn't flimsy in any way - and the design is pleasant, not overstated, and nowhere near as instrusive as a rear projection box. We've already put about 150 hours on the tv, and no problems (other than the addictive quality of playoff games in HD - you can see the texture of the grass, the game ball, and the announcer's toupee - it really is amazing).A word of caution: In spite of the low price, this is definetly an enviable Keeping up with the Jones item. Be prepared to sever friendships and test loyalties after purchasing this tv - it makes you look rich without having sold children or body parts to get one. Thank goodness Amazon sells "Bourgeois for Dummies".

While researching HDTV I leaned that Samsung is IT. This HDTV is all that I was hoping for. Take your favorite movie off the self, get 40 minutes into it you will know why you spent the money to have this HDTV. I also got the Samsung DVD HD950 as a companion DVD player. My Xbox looks great on this TV ,I guess the bottom line for me is I have never seen anyone have a HDTV set up that compares to this. Eagle shipping dropped the ball and I had to go and pick up my HDTV from the distribution center. What a rip off I paid $200.00 for me to my own shipping, anyway The TV is great , the price is wonderful, the pictures are clean and bright, but buyer beware of Eagle shipping. :::::::Update Amazon.com customer service department fixed shipping problem and satisfied me with their solution::: very happy!!!!!Lang
