Strengths: Picture quality both HD and non HD. Built in speakers are great. TOC is beautiful.
Weaknesses:None
Overall Evaluation: I got mine on May 5th. Delivery was excellent. Lots of features and easy to setup and start using right away. I had the cable company install an HD DVR and then also check the signal strength on the cable. Signal was low, so the cable guy put in an amplifier. Analog shows look very good. HD is amazing on this TV. If you register your warranty On line then Samsung gives you an extra 3 months of warranty. If you buy with VISA you might also get an extra free year of warranty from VISA. I think Mastercard does the same. I'm currently using video cables and the picture is perfect. The remote is made for the hand and easy to use.

Strengths: Glossy Screen. Deep Blacks. Bright Whites. No noticeable TBE. Perfect for fast gaming.
Weaknesses:Glossy Screen. Reflective. Red TOC may not match your setup.
Overall Evaluation: The glossy screen is a matter of contention for some viewers. In a dark room, it works perfectly, but as soon as it gets bright be careful of reflections. It gets annoying seeing yourself in the tv during the daytime, but I guess this has been a sticking point with TV's for years now. The anti-reflective coating on this TV is better than those of prior years. I must also comment on how good this picture is, so much so I upgraded from the 46" to the 52" knowing that I'd be holding on to this puppy for a good time to come. Gaming is as good here, if not better, than on my plasma. Highly recommended.

Strengths: Clarity is superb, especially with Blu Ray discs hooked up via HDMI. The color tone is very natural and vivid.
Weaknesses:Screen and edges easily smudged and not easy to clean. But it's all just cosmetics, the real beauty is the picture.
Overall Evaluation: This TV really is one of a kind. I've been researching LCDs for months and months and finally settled for this one. The picture and the touch of color look is unmatched. You might've heard people complain about the shutting off issue, but that issue has been fixed and has been a non-factor. Go check it out at your local electronics store, this thing is a thing of beauty.

Strengths: Awesome in almost every single way, excellent picture, 120HZ, plenty of inputs
Weaknesses:Click wheel on remote is hard to get use to and lacks tactile feel.
Overall Evaluation: This is by far the best tv i've owned. I thought my previous Sharp Aquos was good but this blows that out of the water. No issues like the Sharp with banding. 120hz really makes bluray movies stand out. I did have the issue some people have the the tv set restarting on its own but that was quickly fixed with a firmware update. The Touch of Color goes well with my black/red themed living room but may not work for all people. The price on this tv seems to be dropping right now, there's no reason for everyone not to get one!
