    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: great picture, huge screen, blue light in the front, samsung link technology, usb updateable, usb wiselink to play songs or pictures, Tons of inputs

    Weaknesses: none

    Overall Evaluation: This is an excellent television for the price. I simply love it. The picture is great quality. There are many inputs in the back from hdmi, svideo, RCA and composites so that you can hookup many things to the television at once. The firmware is updateable via usb as samsung has already solved the restart issue with the television. I love to use the usb wiselink to pop in a thumb drive and view pictures of my new niece and kid on the huge screen. It is simply great. Definitely a great television and coming down in price every time i look at it!

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Picture quality. Number of inputs. Quality.

    Weaknesses: Have not been able to pick up one of my HDTV over the air channels that I was able to on my previous set. But I did gain one channel that I could not pick up before

    Overall Evaluation: This television is the best bang for your buck that I could find. Purchased from Amazon for a great price and fast delivery. The set turns on quickly and has numerous picture adjustments for fine tuning. I recommend a DVD set-up disc to fine tune the picture as the picture was too vibrant upon the first use of the television. The only problem that I have had is with the sound. If you connect the optical output to a stereo and also use the TV sound (for center channel etc.) there is an echo. You need to turn down the TV sound to remedy the situation. I am happy with my purchase, you will be also.

    Duration of ownership:2 Weeks

    Strengths: LED DLP, 1080p, 120Hz, Less Heavy

    Weaknesses: Speakers, Brightness Angle

    Overall Evaluation: Good Picture Quality depending on the HD Input Signal. Some compressed HD really look bad with pixelations. This might be because of the size (61"), compared to a Mitsubishi one (46") that I replaced. It is not really as bright from different angles as the Mits. CRT RPTV. The music when the TV is powered on/off is annoying. Btw, the speakers are on the bottom and need to pay extra attention while lifting the TV as as not to damage TV and the speakers. All-in-all good price for a big TV and am a satisfied customer so far the first few weeks.

    Duration of ownership:5 Days

    Strengths: 61# with slim bezel, X.V. Color w/ 3 HDMI 1.3 inputs, matte finish screen for virtually no glare, Full 1080P with 24P Capabilities, LED light engine should last 20yrs.

    Weaknesses: Slight reflection in cabinet can be seen on 2.35 to 1 movies just above the image.

    Overall Evaluation: This TV is fantastic!! The color reproduction is great and is bright enough for the sunniest of rooms. This problem with 2.35 to 1 movies is slight but noticeable. I have no bowing or tilt in the image so I'm reluctant to call a tech to try and fix it. I might just zoom the image to fill the screen and problem solved. See if it bothers me in a few weeks. I would recommend this TV to friends after informing them of the slight issue.

    Strengths: stunning picturegreat inputs/menu

    Weaknesses: none

    Overall Evaluation: the first tv delivered from BB had some issues, but a replacement tv works great.ppl online are skeptical of buying the tv b/c of a tv reboot issue. Samsung has already released a firmare to fix the problem, which you can download from their website or call them and they will send you a thumbdrive with the firmware for free.going from a sony WE-50655 that was lemoned, this tv is superb in everyway.1080P blue ray compatible, hdmi. ease of setup.i'd go for it. the prices have come down and it has phatlight technology for the LED's, so you can't go wrong.lifetime LED versus changing out costly bulbs.I wouldn't buy any $2k item without an extended wtty (paid off with the sony) so spring for that and you'll do fine.
