 Great TV. Great Price June 16, 2008

I wasn't really planning to purchase a TV for another six months, but I happened across this model at 900 bucks on Amazon and decided to pull the trigger. For a 40 inch TV, 1080p is unnecessary.
I knew I wanted one of the Name Brand (Samsung, Toshiba, Sony, Sharp, LG) TVs because of some poor experiences my friends have had with other brands like Vizio and Dynex.
And while this is the older entry-level model from Samsung, the major differences (in addition to 720p vs 1080p) between this model and the more expensive ones largely came down to one fewer HDMI inputs (2 vs. 3), a lower contrast ratio that is still good enough to clearly distinguish many shades of black in a brightly lit room, and a slower refresh rate that might matter if I were playing a fast-paced video game, but hasn't been noticeable at all for watching TV (including sports) and movies.
All in all, for a price that comes in 30% or more below similar sets, I couldn't be happier.

I bought this for my 84 year old very techno Mother just days ago. I recently bought a Sony XBR4 52" from amazon with the white glove delivery and everything was perfect. This crew was not so great but we adapted and the TV set was really great despite the delivery crew. I would highly recommend this set. The 40" set really does not have to be 1080P, esp. since cable cannot deliver anything in HD this set can not receive.If you go to a 46" set; you definitely need to go to 1080P. Buy this set! Mom has this in her living room and absolutely loves it!
Gets 5 due to price July 3, 2008

For the price, at the time of purchase, you couldn't beat this TV. Delivered to your door, and taken out of the box which also is a big plus.
The TV is large, the image is crisp and clear, bottomline is that it works. If you've been reading TONS you'll notice that there are some slightly brighter screens that produce deeper blacks etc. So yes, you CAN get a slightly better image but at a much higher price. I've had it for several weeks now and have never said, "oh, that black isn't as deep as I want". Fantastic product.
Best deal...Fo real! October 15, 2008

Yes...I did my due diligence... I scanned the web, hit the stores and this was the true 'Best Buy' out there. I needed a TV that was better than the one that did not work and I was not looking for the latest and greatest to "one up" my friends.
What I was looking for was a good working TV that would last longer than it would take for me to pay it off...Which pans down to mean low cost and a strong reputation for manufacturing solid TV's...and this one hit the target dead-on. I got the best price on Amazon.com from the warehouse. Go ahead and search for yourself. You'll be right back.
HD stands for "Huge Difference" September 5, 2008

We were woefully unprepared for how crappy normal TV would look. That's a compliment to this excellent TV (and HD in general) but it meant we had to scrap our digital cable and get DirecTV. We also didn't have the right cables to hook up all our stuff. But all that's our fault. We just got the thing because my 10-year-old 32" block was kind of an embarrassment. This was one of the better prices for a name brand HDTV, though it was more than we needed to spend. I think it was worth it, though, because we have no complaints about the color, picture quality, or features. It was easy to figure out once it was hooked-up. And the design is clean and not as gaudy as some others. I'd highly recommend it if you're ready to make the jump to HD. Just be ready for the surprise, and to shell out some more dough for new cable and new cables.
