Samsung LN46A550 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV
- 1st flat screenWe did alot of product and user research before deciding on the Samsung 550 and just love it. We were actually looking at the 750 but after reading a customer review about the 550 and how its screen is practically glare-resistant, changed gears. Then we found the best price on Amazon and like other reviewers we were hesitant to buy a "big ticket" item on line but after reading about others' positive experiences and always having had good experiences w/Amazon's delivery, just did it. It arrived exactly when promised, the deliverer called ahead to schedule the delivery and they were flexible around our schedule. We are using the stand which is included as we prefer the swivel feature so we did not need installation. To set-up, the 550 is pretty close to plug & play. 5 stars for the product and to amazon!

- Good for the priceI work as a satellite TV tech. So, I view many TV's throughout the day. My impressions of this TV are based on comparisons to the many different models I've seen and used.
The GOOD:
Great bright colors. Does a decent job of handling motion blur. Decent feature set and menu. Attractive overall look and finish.
The BAD:
Voices are muffled and hard to understand with the built in speakers. The TV has glare as bad or worse than regular tube TV's. The TV's standard def. processing is pretty poor.
Overall the picture quality is what sold me. I play planet earth in 1080p on it all day long and it looks great. Football also looks really good. It's not a bad buy for the price, but for the budget concerned buyer there are other TV's in this size range for cheaper that work great as well.

- Great TV, best price, excellent serviceI chose this TV because after extensive research on which 46" HDTV to buy I was thoroughly confused. I decided to leave the research to the experts and bought this TV because Consumer Reports rated it #1 among the 46" LCD's. Amazon offered the best price, by far. The delivery was super fast and easy to arrange. My husband is thrilled with his Christmas present. The picture is beautiful. This model has three HDMI inputs which makes hooking satellite, DVD player etc super easy. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

- Great 1080p TVPurchased this during Customer's Vote and what a great TV to have. I have yet to find a flaw, but I will admit I'm not a very picky person. I love how it detects new sources and tells you what the problem is if there is one. Now to shell out the money for an HDPVR...
