A Super HDTV…
I purchased this TV at the end of January after the Super Bowl. The purchase price has since gone up some $400 on Amazon so I count myself lucky I got such a great deal.

Right Size
This LCD HDTV proved to be exactly the right size for the space. Good picture. Little distortion. Some connectivity issues with other Anynet devices.

Excellent TV but better models out there right now.
I bought this TV in August 2008 and at the time, it was the best 52 in LCD TV for the price. Highly recommended.

Great TV
I received my TV on the estimated arrival date. There was an issue with the internal components, but Samsung fixed the TV 2 weeks later. I love this TV!
