Strengths: Crystal Clear Picture Quality. Very Good Energy saver. Easy to Setup. Lots of input ports! Superb movie quality!
Weaknesses: It's a bit pricey!
Overall Evaluation: This is an absolute MUST for everyone looking to get a new HDTV! ...BUT, the price is a little to high in my opinion, I never would have got one if I never got mine for FREE!. Luckily a friend recommended this website to me before I went and bought one: **- www.hdtv.justgetitfree.com - ** . I checked out the website, completed ONE simple offer and met the requirements to receive one for FREE, it arrived a month later in the post! It was also shown on BBC and CNN news!!

Strengths: Upgraded from my rear projection 46". The picture is excellent and the unit has a good amount of hdmi inputs. The menu is slick and adjustments are easy. Backlight remote. Red bezel is subtle.
Weaknesses: Cable inputs are one sided, they would be more useful if they were near the pivot point. Remote is a bit weak. The design is subpar and the click wheel feels cheap. Red bezel may turn off some.
Overall Evaluation: Great lcd for the $. Hopefully it performs well over it's lifetime. HD looks great. Slim and light

Strengths: Great HD smooth brilliant picture and sound
Weaknesses: None Found
Overall Evaluation: We love this tv. I looks great and fits nicely on our wall. It was easy to mount. It really has a sharp image and isn't choppy. It has lots of cool features and settings you can change. We bought ours at Buy Dig. The remote looks nice and is easy to use.

Strengths: Picture Quality and many inputs. What else is there?
Weaknesses: It wasn't free (but still a good value)
Overall Evaluation: Went to the local A/V store (the small expensive kind) to see one and it shined even when compared to some very pricey HDTVs on either side. However the price was pretty steep so I ordered mine from Vanns (they always ship quick) and picked up the extended warranty from extend4less (only $219 for 4 more years). Just watched Rambo (first blood) in blu-ray and somehow this TV overcame the old film quality to look absolutely stunning. Maybe it's the blu-ray too but it didn't look this good on my last set. You should buy one of these and see your HD programming and blu-rays on yet another level of quality.

Strengths: Fantastic picture, beautiful design, HD stations are incredible!!
Weaknesses: The remote sucks.
Overall Evaluation: This TV is by far the best value for it's capabilities. I compared the Sony 52"LCD TV's to this one and there was no comparison. The quick refresh time of 4ms is the best in the marketplace. Samsung is doing what they do best, making great TV's.......

Strengths: Great picture, adjustability
Weaknesses: one color available right now
Overall Evaluation: This is a great lcd tv. I did a lot of research before buying something this expensive, and it came down to this and the Sony XBR4. I honestly think the picture on the Samsung is better when sitting side-by-side with the Sony....Plus it's cheaper! I was also debating on size...46 or 52... While the 46 would have sufficed, I'm glad I went with the 52 incase I move into a bigger house or something. If you're on the fence, get off of it and get this tv; you won't regret it.

Duration of ownership:3 Weeks
Strengths: Light, slim, extremely programable, well made and amazing picture quality
Weaknesses: Not cheap
Overall Evaluation: I've owned this LCD for about 2 weeks now and I must say it's some amazing kit. I'm not "cheap" per se just frugal but I must admit that this is about the best purchase I've made in years. Wonderfully versatile with a great picture and with 4 "stretch" modes you're sure to find something that'll make your movie look great. But with confidence, Samsung is great gear.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: high contrast ratio; 120 hz; plenty of inputs!
Weaknesses: glossy screen
Overall Evaluation: I've owned this TV for about a week now and absolutely love it! I've been contemplating for months if I should get this TV or the new Sony w4100 but I jumped the gun and purchased this set with no regrets. There are too many good things to say about this TV but my only con would be its glossy screen. Depending on the lighting of your room this may not be an issue but it was for me. Other than that, this TV is probably the best out there right now.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Picture quality and brightness; fast-action motion; plug-and-play set up; inputs; low weight
Weaknesses: Too many menu options; sound quality; slow menu navigation; remote control
Overall Evaluation: First foray into big screen/HD. Not a videophile but picture is great, particularly brightness and contrast ratio. Motion, for example, sports, still pixelates but better than anything else on the market. 120 Hz improves motion (split screen demo mode is neat) but not sure worth extra money. Yes, screen is reflective material but picture brightness makes it irrelevant. Plug and play and convenient inputs makes it easy to set up, but the array of picture menu options is confusing. Who needs all that

Strengths: Great picture! 4 HDMI inputs!
Weaknesses: Remote wheel sucks!
Overall Evaluation: Truely this Tv has great picture and it upscling of SD content is not bad at all! Lots of inputs and it is not too shiny screen. The only thing I don't like is the remote specifically the wheel since I frequently turn it by mistake. i think it is not a very good design. Otherwise the TV is really good!
