I've had this tv for about 2 months. I got it for $849 and feel that I got more than my money's worth. Excellent picture and audio. Xbox 360 is great, the PC is great, HDTV excellent. This is my first HDTV. The ability to connect the PC is what takes this TV over the top. The VGA connection is excellent. Through the PC, I've been able to use Netflix, Hulu, Boxee, etc.
One thing of note for those curious about shipping. Shipping company called and scheduled a delivery. The delivery actually was 5 hours early and just so happens that I was at home at the time. The driver only brought the tv in and left. There was no setup or pre-checklist that he adhered. I was fine with that. |

I was looking for an lcd tv to replace our old tube tv in our family room. I found this tv at best buy for about $150 more. I was glad I also looked at amazon. The experience couldn't have been better. My brother has bought 2 flatscreens and also had no issues.
As far as the tv goes, we already had a samsung plasma and loved that as well. The picture is as crisp as our plasma. I did have to play around with the settings a bit to get the right colors, especially facial pigments. Also, the 120hz feature had to be dialed down a notch to avoid making filmed tv shows like sitcoms less jittery. Most shows I learned are at 60hz and so will appear jittery on here. Exception is live tv as far as I've noticed. Basketball games for example were perfect. I did see that turning the 120hz setting to its highest made the people on the tv seem almost 3-d. But that jittery stuff was just too distracting.
Sound is good for a tv speaker. There's some pseudo surround sound you can turn on but in the end this not a home theater and we don't need that for the kids to watch. You can get it pretty loud and clear.
We still have to get a blu-ray but even the pictures from the dvd look clear.
Eventually we'll try hooking up a pc to this and see how that looks. The only thing I wished for these tv's was to have built in wi-fi instead of having to buy an adapter. Cha-ching!
Definitely buy this tv. Especially for the price you will NOT regret it. |
Excellent!

I want anyone reading to know I am a TV nut and early HDTV adopter. The slightest picture imperfection (excessive grain, inaccurate color, color bleeding, etc...) will drive me crazy and I am happy to report this Samsung has displayed none. This is my 3rd HDTV purchase and first in the 1080p 120+hz era.
Got my hands on a this set last week for under $650. Hooked it up, calibrated with DVE and all I can say is WOW.
Needed very little tweaking out of the box (Movie Mode). Picture is outstanding. Anyone in the market for a TV of this size should not hesitate.
Colors are spot on. Blacks and whites are very good (after calibration). Gray scale is very accurate (after calibration). Screen uniformity is also very good.
Still playing with 120hz motion control. I think I like soap opera effect (at least when watching cable).
Blu-rays really look outstanding. You will not get a better TV in this price range.

Great tv with a few issues

I love the tv, it was exactly as described; however there is one major issue with the tv that people should know. This tv has the power button on the front bottom part of the tv, but it is not a button you push in; it is a button that is I think heat sensitive because you have to press power sign on the glass which is hard to see unless your looking straight at it. Think of the tv as a rectangle and on the bottom part of the rectangle smack dab in the middle is on button sensor. This is not in the manual which makes it even worse when trying to figure it out. I believe that was the only poor thing about it. I wish the picture and picture worked with TV to TV, not just component to TV and it doesn't work great with cable unless you play around ALOT with the picture stuff like sharpness and color, etc.
Also, if you have an xbox, please realize that it can only go to 60hz so don't get the tv if your getting it mainly for gaming purposes.
With the delivery, it took like 2 weeks when it said I would get it within 4 days. I didn't mind too much because the shipping was free, so can't really complain they sent a 40 inch for free. The shipping people were really nice when they scheduled the drop off and they were right on time. I would buy from them again. |
Amazing Picture!!!!

| This is one amazing TV! The picture is unbelieveable! I went from a 32" to a 40" and couldn't be happier. Easy set up! The matt screen is a must for my sunroom. Takes up very little room and even when not on it look great! Very sleek. My daughter has the 46" and loves hers also. The 40" fit my room size better. Clear picture from any seat in the room. I shopped around and couldn't match the price + free shipping not to mention the no interest payment plan. |

Big difference for Samsung

| My old LG was having issues so I upgraded to this Samsung. I don't know what caused the difference, but the images immediately seemed more real. No matter what the source, picture seemed like you could reach through the screen and touch the people there. The ATSC tuner also received more channels than my previous HDTV. Fabulous! |
Excellent video quality

Excellent video quality.
I paired the TV with a Motorola Cable HD box and the Samsung BD-P4600 Blu-Ray player, all interconnected with high quality Sony DLCHD HDMI cables and I must say that the quality is absolutely flawless.
I am literally amazed by the quality of the Netflix movies that I currently stream (wirelessly) a well ast the You Tube cntents.
Speaking of streamimg from Netflix, I watched the National Geographic documentary "Yellowstone: battle for life" and I was able to stream in HD... fantastic quality.
Only 2 (minor)cons about the TV:
1) the flange that connects the TV to the pedestal is somhow "flimsy"
2) the TV built-in audio speakers are basic (clearly designed to be connected to a proper home theater system)
Other than that, I would reccomend this TV to anybody. Great purchase, great bargain, exceptional quality. |
Beautiful...

| It took a couple days longer to get here than expected but it was worth the wait. I researched HDTVs for at least a month before buying and the Samsung LN40B630 kept coming out on top. It was the most "bang for the buck." The instructions and set up were simple. The picture is absolutely beautiful. I am well pleased with the purchase. I was a little apprehensive buying it from Amazon because I had never purchased a major electronic device on-line. However, I have bought many things from Amazon and have never been disappointed and was confident that the buying experience would be a good one. Great deal! |
