 Fantastic Picture April 10, 2008
30 out of 32 found this review helpful
I first bought the Samsung LNT4665F and was fairly pleased with it. I decided to return it when I saw the newer model LN4A550P has better specs and it was cheaper. In fact, the price has dropped almost $100 since I ordered it 8 days ago. (You can call customer service for refunds for 30 days but check the details on refunds).

Most of the specifications are not listed on the Amazon site. If interested, check the Samsung site.
Ignoring technical stuff, this TV is fantastic. The picture is outstanding especially for the HD shows. The non-glossy screen is also a big improvement. Even the sound quality is better. I watch sports and the picture quality is so much clearer with no shadows. By far, this is the better TV, for less money.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.
The delivery company was great - both TVs were delivered a few days after ordering.
Terrific TV, Great Customer Service April 26, 2008

Since pretty much everyone on here has given this TV the same praise, I will spare you all of the details it is certainly the best TV for the money out there today.
However, my customer service experience is something to note here. Like others, I was wary of making such a large purchase online. Low price + no sales tax and free shipping made up my mind. After seamlessly receiving the TV 4 days after ordering it, it broke withing 3 hours of being delivered (there was a loud snap-like sound), and there was no power. I immediately contacted Amazon, who told me to contact Samsung directly, and if they could not handle my concerns, call back. Samsung dispatched a technician to my house 4 days later, who told me that he "thought" it was a defective power card, and that it would take 1 - 2 weeks to get the part and come back for repair.
Now I think most of you will agree that you wouldn't want a TV that was refurbished after just 1 day. Samsung refused to replace it, saying their policy is to repair, not replace. I then emailed Amazon, asking for a new television, giving the above explanation. When I called for an update the next day, my issue had already been escalated, and a new TV was about to ship, no questions asked, at 0 cost to me.
In the end, I have Amazon did everything I asked and more, including crediting my price 4 times, from 1700 all the way to 1469. The biggest fear in buying something like this online is, "what if it breaks???" Well, mine did break, and if you buy from Amazon, you can be sure that you will be happy in the end no matter what.
Great quality for your money April 7, 2008

I recently assisted my parents in purchasing this television for their room. The price was right (1699$) at the time purchase (4-3-2008) for this set. 30,000:1 contrast ratio with more ports and cable slots than I myself could fill with all 3 video game systems this generation and a peripheral DVD player.
The image is extremely clear with no banding or ghosting whatsoever (but like any HDTV don't stare at the screen from point blank). HD channels come in crisp and clear, and blacks look very black, not greyish like my older Sharp LCD's TV displays. They don't have any high definition movie player yet, but we are working on it.
Another thing for those interested in wall mounting. The whole TV is less than 60 pounds. I held it up myself while my dad mounted it to the wall.
Also it's easy to carry up stairs (you don't need to have an expensive moving company do anything for you or mount it if you are sufficiently skilled with such things).
Like the other reviewer said however, the speakers are very underwhelming, in comparison to the rest of the setup. Then again, most TV's speakers are.
In all I have to give it a 5 out of 5 based on the value, even with the lackluster speakers, the display itself is just too good.

This is a fantastic TV. It has a breathtaking picture. I got it out of the box and tried every feature and every type of picture i could think of, to see how it would do. It aced the HDTV test from my satellite provider. Next I tried a DVD, once again the picture was pretty sweet. Then I tried out a blu-ray movie. As good as the DVD looked the blu-ray looked about a million times better. Then I popped in my college football game for my PS3. Once again fantastic picture. I also attached my Macbook Pro via a DVI to HDMI converter cable. I had never had very good look with the quality of computers on my other HDTVs however, this one knocked another one out of the park. Great picture quality and i could read the smallest fonts because of the 1080p brilliance. I cannot give a response on how good the speakers are or are not because I have a bose home theater. I have been researching TV's since the beginning of the year and I found both in quality and price Samsung seemed the best. I received my TV from CEVA only two days after ordering. They were very courteous and the there was no evidence that the TV was mishandled in any way. If you are looking for a TV with the quality of a $2500 TV at a much better price this is the one in my opinion. I have many hours of staring at the wall at Best Buy to verify this... at least to my eyes.
 Sound is the only drawback April 20, 2008
15 out of 15 found this review helpful
We've had this TV for about two weeks now and we're very happy with it. The bottom line is that you get incredible picture quality for a very low price. The colors were a little too intense out of the box but a few adjustments using the on-screen menu controls remedied that. Now it just looks wonderful. As others have said, the sound is mediocre. I think the problem is that the speakers point down, not out. I guess they didn't want to ruin that very stylish, "minimalist" look of the set. We have the set mounted inside of a cabinet, so those downward-pointing speakers tend to result in muffled sound or echoes. We just play the TV through our audio receiver, so it's fine. Overall, this was a great buy for our first HDTV.
