My husband and I bought this TV and we just love it. It has an awesome picture, extremely clear and great sound. It really is the focal point of our living room. Samsung is such a great product overall.
What's great about it: Great price and an incredible picture.

i think this T.V. is amazing. i bought it because my old RCA T.V. went out after like 20 years. this is awesome for the money. also Samsung is a great brand. i would recommend this to anyone who wants a new T.V. if u are deciding between a 37" and a 40"......get a 40" they are not that much bigger. plus it's only like a $100 more. i recommend this to anyone.

I just bought this TV yesterday from instore and I love it! I took it out of the box and a minute later had it on my tv stand ready to use. What I really like about it that my other tv doesnt have (The 42" Insignia) each input can have its own video settings which I really really enjoyed. I havent been able to hook it up to HDTV yet but my Xbox 360 and Wii look amazing on it. You do not want to miss out on this deal. I did a lot of research before I decided to get this because it was only 100 dollars more than my last tv (42'' Isignia) and 100 dollars cheaper than thte Sony Bravia I was looking at but it had a better contrast ratio and price so it was almost a no-brainer. I have no regrets about buying this tv so far.
What's great about it: Great price, great picture!
What's not so great: Sound has some getting used to

I have been looking at televisions for the past 6 months. This TV came highly recommended and I am so glad I bought it. I bought another TV for my bedroom (prior to buying this one) and I am so disappointed in it after watching this TV. The sound and picture is great.
What's great about it: Very easy to set up. Wonderful picture.

I bought this 40" samsung to replace my 32" analog set and was expecting it to be a much better picture and it was. I hooked up the HDMi cable, (seperate perchase) and got a great picture. The problem was the sound, it is really bad. Come to find out that the speakers are only 8-10 watts or ohms compared to 40-60 in my old analog set. That explains it to me. I'll need to use my surround sound system a lot more, or a sound bar if that's what you have. But that's ok some times I like it better anyway. When you buy an HD tv, your paying for a better picture.
What's great about it: The picture is pretty good compared to my old analog set.

Bought this TV for a great price at $799. For the most part I love it. Sound isn't an issue since I use surround-sound anyhow, and I have to say the picture can't be beat...until you get rapid action/camera pans, etc. I noticed watching a pretty typical fight-scene during a HD broadcast movie on NBC, that the picture distorted and pixelated the entire time. It's VERY noticeable and disappointing. I have it hooked up via HDMI and still the problem exists.
Otherwise, really impressed by this TV especially for the pricepoint.

Great picture. Granted, it's only 60 Hz, so a lot of fast motion isn't crystal clear, but it's not very noticeable. Sound isn't great, but it's good for a TV. I have a surround sound system so that isn't really an issue. Good amounts of inputs and outputs; more than I need actually. I have my xbox 360, blu-ray home theater combo, wii, and computer (which is really cool) all hooked up to the TV, with more slots to spare. Very satisfied.
What's great about it: Good picture, good amount of inputs and ouputs

Love the Tv for the price and quality. My brother worked at Circuit city for years before they went under and always said that Samsung gives you the best picture for the money. I bought this and am not disapointed. Picture is great after viewing for a month. Price is also awesome. My advice would be to save some money and go for the 60hz refresh rates because when watching sports you cant tell the difference between 60hz and 120hz. But the price is way higher for the latter. Sound blows just like most hdtvs but you get use to it. I hooked up receiver and nice speakers to it but as i said you get use to it anyways and its not a big deal unless you hear it next to awesome speakers. Great buy for a tv. dont spend hundreds more new technology
