Warranty Service Stinks Jun 06, 2009 The vast majority of the reviews I read about this model were accurate: great picture, ok sound, nice features, etc. Unfortunately the model was too new to reveal its reliablility problems. Mine failed after 5 months of use and Samsung Warranty Services has been useless in resolving the problem. They referred me to a service center 60 miles away from me (I have now found one 10 minutes away - wish me luck) and these guys had my set for 6 weeks before claiming that they couldn't duplicate the problem??!!! They SAW the problem in my house, took it and then sat on it for 6 weeks. I called Samsung customer (dis)-service and they did nothing for me. The phone rep said it was between me and the repair company. I tried explaining that the repair company didn't know what they were doing after 6 weeks of futility, but to no avail. I can understand that things break, but the lack of warranty support from Samsung was absolutely amazing considering it was a nearly $2000 purchase. Go ahead and buy this TV, but pray that it doesn't break.
NICE QUALITY TV Jun 02, 2009 This tv has an outstanding picture!All functions were easy to operate.
Setting up the picture quality was a lot easier than I was led to believe.
The only knock I have against this tv is the sound system.Very mediocre.
Since I am am using a seperate sound system anyway this problem is not
really an issue for me.I would suggest anyone purchasing this tv to consider
doing the same,but otherwise a tv well worth the money!

Beautiful picture May 06, 2009 I purchased this television in February of 2008 after doing weeks of research and comparing the picture quality to other HDTVs in store.
I could not be happier with this television. I have had it for over a year and it has survived two moves, and a toddler spilling a drink down the front of the LCD screen.
Once you view an action movie or a sports game on this Samsung, you will never be able to stand watching it on a lesser quality television. If you are a serious gamer, you will fall in love with the resolution, clarity and smooth motion.
If you are in the market for an LCD HDTV, you must buy a Samsung! I cannot wait until I can buy the Samsung LN32B550 32-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color to use in my bedroom for movie watching and as a computer monitor.

I threw it off my 8th floor balcony and it still works!!! Apr 28, 2009 This thing is like a piece of iron.... but its a machine made of chips and plastic I think
Time to buy! Apr 25, 2009 Between the recession and the introduction of the 240Hz LCD TV's, the price for this big beauty is down nicely.
We watch movies, Hi-Def cable shows and kid shows in my family, mostly, and this TV does a fantastic job with each. If your focus isn't on sports, this is an excellent television and a very good deal right now.
If you haven't bought a TV in a few years, or this is a step up, be warned! there are a lot of options and features to work with. It is worth your time to learn them, but it does take a little time. If you routinely upgrade your computers or cell phone every couple years, you'll be fine. If you don't, be prepared to spend some time learning what this beast of a TV can do for you.
I recommend it and would buy it again.

Consumer Reports Says Buy Your HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2008) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2007 and June 2008. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its December 2008 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com and Crutchfield.com came closest.
