I spent a great deal of time researching flat panels. This seemed to be the best of the bunch. After standing in Best Buy for 2 hours looking at pictures side by side and talking with a sales rep, this was confirmed. Amazon's price was $600 less. The "white glove" delivery guys were great, set everything up without a problem. The picture is breathtaking. I say this having had a Sony wega w/ HD for the last 3 years. Picture quality is unbelievable. The sound from the TV is also fantastic. The biggest complaint I read about this unit before buying was the "touch of red" around the bezel and how distracting it was. You can barely even tell it's there, so I don't know what these people are talking about. I highly recommend this TV.

Samsung A750 46" LCD has a great picture. Much better than any other brand that I saw in stores prior to purchasing it. Touch of Red just adds to the beauty. Great buy and grat value. Would highly recomend. Just have one question: When you first turn TV on---the screen reads across the top 1980x1080i @ 60hz. Why does it say 60 hz when I have the 120 hz on and set to the high position?

In February 2009 I wonder if the quality will be even clearer. It taks as long to warm up as my old TV and the only strange thing is that with the wide screen the people seem shorter and fatter! However, the TV was easy to install.

After having done much research and product comparisons, as well as going to stores and actually comparing the difference in picture quality between the different television set-ups. I came to purchase this TV through Amazon. I purchased it through here because I got it cheaper than I could find anywhere else and with free white glove delivery. I was in all honesty a bit skeptical about the delivery service at the time, but they showed up when scheduled to and helped me take the TV out of the box and place it where it needed to be. They also took the box away for me.
Picture quality:
Full HD is 1080p, which is this TV's native resolution. And let me tell you, the quality of the picture is obvious even for someone who does not care much about it, or just doesn't know much about it. My Dad was instantly impressed when he came to visit me (and he isn't one for technology). Also, the contrast ratio on this TV is just about as good as it gets without going to Plasma or the LCD technology

Like just about everyone else making a major purchase like this, I agonized for the past few months over PLASMA vs. LCD, SONY or SAMSUNG, 120hz vs 60hz. Every time my family and I went to a store to view the various TV options first hand, the picture on the Samsung LNa650 and LNa750 were just mind blowing and clearly sstandout from all the other tvs LCD or Plasma. So then the debate narrowed down to do we purchase the 650 or 750, since the price was so close and the subwoofer, speaker placement and DNLA compliance and slightly faster processing were nice additional features. In the end we opted to purchase the 650, as the reports and pictures of the "halo" effect from the 750's bezel frame when viewing the tv in the dark was of concern to us and would have certainly bothered us, although some people are not bothered by it at all.
I am happy to say we have had this TV for 5 days now and are completely stunned and amazed at the picture quality. I am a jaded NYer and a hard person to impress,

After reading the other reviews here, and checking this model (and others) out at brick & mortar stores, we decided to buy it despite the negative comments on the sound/volume. As others here have noted the picture is quite nice, but more important we did not have any problems with the volume. We have not yet turned it up over maybe 1/3 of the total, and it is plenty loud enough for our living room. Granted, we are not vacuuming while watching TV, but we do have a couple of rambunctious kids, and they TV is plenty loud enough with them running around.

Amazon shipped this product on Monday and it arrived on Thursday! The company who delivered it, called my home made an appointment for delivery between 9 - 12 noon for the following day. They arrived at 9 am, unloaded the television, set it up and turned it on to make sure everything worked. They told my wife that we should keep the box for 30 days just in case something went wrong, as the manufacture likes it to be shipped back in the same box. Good idea, where are you going to find a box to fit it. My wife said they were very professional and took their time setting it up. Now for the main thing....the Samsung 52" TOC LCD, is amazing! I spent a lot of time going to stores looking at different brands, reading the forum pages on Consumer Report as well as the reviews here on Amazons. The Samsung won outright and it wasn't even close. The picture is the best on any unit on the market and Amazon had the best price and the best service AS USUAL. I could not ask for anything more,

I am so glad that I purchased a Samsung TOC 52-inch HDTV. The picture quality is superb and the remote is user friendly, along with the on screen menu selection. I would highly recommend this TV as Samsung produces high-quality products. The clarity of the picture makes me feel as though I am on the set when the movie was being made. The color settings were programmed perfectly by the factory that required minor adjustments during installation.
The most important part is that I realized a savings of $600 by purchasing through Amazon. I had originally purchased the same model at a local store, but had to wait for delivery to the store for pickup. Went home that night and surf the internet and decided to purchase from Amazon instead. Needless to say, the local store manager was not happy and offered a discount that was not acceptable.
Enjoy...beautiful TV and the quality is SUPERB!

I am looking for a small HDTV so I can use it as a secondary monitor - this one suit my purpose considering I only paid $199 for it.
PLUS
- Very good HDTV picture quality - I connect it to my cable and the tuner is smart enough to pickup all ANALOG and UNSCRAMBLED HD channels automatically. Overall HD picture quality is good.
- It has one VGA, one HDMI, one component video, one S-Video and one composite video input - pretty good for a cheap TV.
- NO NEED FOR AC ADAPTER!! The power supply is built-into the TV cabinet.
- Sleep Timer
MINUS
- Not very bright at all
- Limited vertical viewing angle
- Limted tilt; does not swivel from side to side
- Anemic sounding speakers / slightly better after I adjust bass/treble
- Mediocre picture quality as a PC monitor
Overall, for $199 don't expect it to perform like a Sharp or a SONY but I give it 4 star based on its sheer value and it's HDTV picture quality. It's a nice addition as a second monitor because you can also use it as a HDTV.

This is a very nice TV. I have had this tv since about 7/30/08.
Pro's: The TV has a very good tuner, I was able to hook it to my basic cable with Comast and was able to get about 16 HD channels and 10 or more digital channnels. I haven't tried over the air tuner. HD channels look great, Standard Def channels look good. I have this set up in the bedroom and it works great for this purpose. 720p is all you need in this size of TV. The Favorite channels you can set up are great, on the remote you have favorites a to c and you can set 4 channels under each letter.
Con: Remote has to be pointed directly at the TV but not too bad
Other thoughts: I still haven't hooded this to my Direct TV receiver yet, so I can't comment on how the digital picture looks like from it! Nor have I gamed on it yet. TV does have a game setting and game timer!
If you are in the market for a 32' LCD and want a quality brand name for a good price with plenty of options this is the one for you!

This is my first HDTV (I am an electronics engineer so, it took very long for me to buy one that i like). But this tv blows me off. Great natural colors, no bright and deep colors as in other samsung and toshiba Tvs.
The Menu is simple but even then it gives wide range of adjustments. Don't be attracted by the video reviews of the other TVs given all over the internet about the different options you can change on your TV because you know what, not many people use all those menu items. This has got bunch of inputs to it and it also have a headphone jack. I added my Bose system to this TV and it really gives a great Movie Experience.
The edges can be a little too glossy, but if you are a person who likes to keep the things neat, you will love the gloss.
Very useful menu item as skipping the Inputs makes this more versatile.
16 ( 4 x 4 ) Customizable favourite channels make life a little more easy. I bought this TV for the olympics and the NBC gives a HighDefinition Feed using the regular

I've had this TV for about a month now, all I can say is I have no regrets about this purchase. Of course after heavy researching, it came down to this TV based on what I was particularly looking for - form and function. I realized the new TVs Samsung has coming out, but I didn't want to wait for them to be released and then wait again for it to become affordable, so this was the best. Having a previous Samsung SlimFit TV did sway me to stick with the brand as that TV was beautiful (but TOO heavy).
The pluses and minus:
- BEAUTIFUL
The red finish that borders around the TV is sleek and subtle (and matches the red accents in my living room, PLUS!). Please note that the red on the 650 version is only on the top and bottom, which looked a little odd for me. The 650 also has that (what I considered super ugly) oval shaped stand compared to the rectangle here.
- USB INPUT and DLNA
I can watch movies I save onto a USB that I plug into the TV. And with DLNA, I can just attach a LAN cable to

I purchased the T240HD for usage as a computer monitor because of a long history with Samsung monitors being absolutely top notch. Unfortunately this product while being pitched as a monitor, makes a great TV but not a great monitor.
The resolution is very good (1920x1200) and it's very attractive and stylish.
There is no vertical height adjustment (typical for a TV but important to have in a monitor). Your desk / monitor stand had better be at just the right height. The edge is highly reflective and creates bad glare around the picture in a work environment. The adjustments are typical TV adjustments but not monitor adjustments (there is no horizontal or vertical position adjustment).
I've used Samsung monitors for many years and recommend them to my clients. When I finally purchased a HDTV I bought a 46" Samsung which is excellent. The T240HD makes a great HDTV but I regret purchasing it as a computer monitor.

I recently bought this TV from Amazon. It is simply awesome! Great picture (way better than I expected). I visited Best Buy and CC a couple times to look at it and I thought the picture was 'average'. Once I got this home and hooked up some HDMI cords (which I also bought online at amazon), the picture was absolutely amazing. Watching nonHD sources is not awful, but it is amazing to see the difference.
Couple things to share:
1. Buy your HDMI cables online and early. Dont spend $40-60 in a store when you can get decent cable online for under 10.
2. Call CEVA as soon as you get a tracking number to schedule your delivery. If you wait they will send you a letter basically saying that you need to call them. This will take several days away from your viewing enjoyment.
3. Surround sound is a must! The speakers are not good for anything other than watching TV late at night when you dont want to wake anyone up. Watching a movie with nothing but the TV speakers would be torture.

I am using this tv with analog cable. The box with the channel number in it keeps popping up all the time (every 30s-1min) on some channels. This is very annoying. Changing the channel takes a few seconds making channel surfing slow. Other than that it is a great product. With digital cable you should not be affected by the channel box problem. Unfortunately I do not have this option.
I contacted customer support about the channel number popping up and this was their reply:
"The display will populate on screen any time there is a change to the incoming signal (mono to stereo audio, weak/fluctuating signal strength). Unfortunately there is no way to deactivate the on screen display. If you are able, try using an alternate connection (composite video and analog audio; yellow, red and white cables) from your source device (cable/sat box, if using) to the unit. This will prevent this issue from occurring by providing a more consistent signal. Let me know if you have any other questions

I bought this set for use in my kitchen. We receive both digital and analog stations from our local cable company. The digital picture from this Samsung set is simply superb and the analog picture is very good. Setup was easy although the owners manual could have been better written. The controls that run up the side of the set are very hard to see, to the point of almost being invisible; but, as I will be using the remote control for set operation, this is not a problem.
If you are buying this set because of the Touch Of Color option, you may wish to think twice. The dark red blends into the black of the set and is difficult to see at best. The price at Amazon was reduced enough so that the extra charge that goes with TOC was negated. I didn't buy it for the TOC anyway.
I used the Free Super Saver Shipping option with Amazon and the set was at my house in 2 days from date of purchase - WOW.
Overall, I am very happy with this Samsung. I would have given it 4 & 1/2 stars if possible,

This TV has an excellent picture but poor, tinny, sound. The sound equalizer needs to be set high on both the low and upper frquencies to produce acceptible audio. A separate sound system would be a plus. Also the PIP function operation is poor and difficult to set up. It requires a separate sound setting when PIP is activated. The manual is not clear as to what component requirements are needed to activate PIP. The W-Link feature works very well to display digital pictures stored on a camera memory or storage device.

Good monitor with a couple of issues. Colors are very bright and graphics are clear and distinct. I was lucky and don't have any dead or stuck pixels. Love the 1920x1200 resolution. I wouldn't go with anything less because then you lose too much screen height in my opinion.
The case looks good. I can only see the red in very bright light, it looks black in normal use lighting. The plastic on the back of the case seems to be very thin, and feels kind of cheap. Probably to save on weight, and the monitor is very light for it's size. The stand and front of the case feel strong and sturdy enough though.
It swivels on the stand easily, but it takes a bit of work to change the viewing angle. I always feel like I am going to break it when trying to change the angle. The monitor does not have a height adjustment, and coming from a monitor that did I really miss this function.
The screen is recessed about a 1/4" in the case. The problem here is that since the screen is recessed and the surrounding

While a 26" screen may not sound impressive, it certainly seems a lot bigger in the living room. What's more, it leaves in the dust any analog TV of a similar screen size.
I like its sharp picture, vibrant colors, the design, and various ways it can display the picture and sound. It has a lot of other features (PIP is one) that I haven't quite gotten around to using yet.
The only thing I could wish for is for it to respond quicker when I turn it on and change channels.
All in all, though, I'm very happy with this TV.

After only two weeks of ownership, I had to write a review and let others in doubt know how amazing the picture quality is on this TV. Never having been a fan of LCD TVs, I have been in the plasma HDTV camp for about 5 years. After purchasing 3 Panasonic Plasma TVs (including the 65-inch TH-65PX600U monster) and one Samsung 50-inch plasma, I saw my parent's Samsung LCD and was blown away. Now, even their model is blown away by this one in picture quality.
After applying the settings found on the AVS Forums, the picture on this TV is amazing. I've really become a Samsung LCD lover now.
Also, the delivery by CEVA was not too bad. I got it one day early.
