Although this review is a bit biased since it's my first HDTV, I must say, I love it! It has a great clear, crisp picture and has great volume. I hate that sometimes you can see the dust on it, but who cares. As long as I can watch my shows, video games, and movies. Has enough plugs for my Directv box, Wii, and DVD player (with still a lot of extra hook ups). Great buy!

What's great about it: Picture Quality
What's not so great: Nothing yet.
This is my second Samsung 40" LCD TV. This TV cost 1/3 the price of my first, has a brighter picture, less jaggies, and a much better sound quality from the TV speakers. I am very pleased with my purchase and have no regrets. I looked at Plasmas, LCDs, and LEDs and nothing gave as much bang for the buck in the 40" category. I will say that Plasmas weren't really an option since the room I put the TV in is so bright. However, I don't really care for the dim picture of the plasmas. I know that the blacks are truer, but I just like the brighter picture of the LCDs and LEDs.
In addition, this TV is about 10-15 lbs. lighter and the frame quite a bit smaller. Buy with confidence.

What's great about it: Features and adjustability
What's not so great: Changing inputs requires a few too many button pushes
This was an emergency buy when my old tv went out the night before the Super Bowl. I found this on sale for just a bit more than some store-brand TVs of comparable features. After getting it home, I did a search online for picture and sound setting tips for this model and got everything set up to my liking within minutes. Most everything is adjustable, which makes fine tuning easier than my old set.
The only gripe I have is that when you change inputs, you have to go through the input menu and press enter. It's minor, but still an annoyance.
Overall, it's a great TV for the money!

What's not so great: Speakers in the rear - def would recommend surround sound.
this is the 3rd samsung tv i purchased... and i love it as much as the others. the picture quality is amazingly clear and smooth. connected with a blu-ray player - theres just no way to watch movies! Love the fact it has so many connections for different plug-ins. The set up is easy. the unit is light weight.... easy to use. (remote, menus, etc).

What's great about it: Easy Set Up. Fantastic Picture.
What's not so great: Nothing
I bought Samsung's Ln60c630 60 inch TV from Best Buy about 6 months ago. That TV has an unbelievable picture, like most of Samsung's LCD TV's. When I wanted a large computer monitor, I naturally went to Best Buy. My video card has an HDMI out, so I wanted to use a 1080 HD TV. The picture on this TV is just as great as it's 60 inch big brother. Samgung and Best Buy make a fantastic team. PC games, and surfing the internet will blow you away. No more side scrolling.
When I bought my 60 inch TV, I did hours of online, and in store research. The results were Samsung TV's have the best picture out there. Some brands might match the picture quality, at a higher price, but none will beat Samsung's quality. I realize most will use this TV as a TV. You can't beat Samsung's picture for the price. Any HD signal looks razor sharp. This is a fantastic TV.
There is an extensive menu that lets you adjust the picture to exactly how you like, but right out of the box, the picture is just amazing. This would make a great bedroom TV, but if you're looking for a living room TV, you won't regret going a little bigger. It's not like the old days when the bigger the screen, the worse the picture looked. Even my 60 inch Samsung TV is razor sharp. A Blue Ray movie will drop your jaw.
I can't say enough about Samsung, and Best Buy. They offer you the best products and the best on sale prices. If you feel the 60Hz vs 120Hz might be an issue, just remember, 60Hz is the HD refresh rate you get from cable or Dish. Save some money, and go with the 60Hz. Watching cable TV, you won't see a difference between 60Hz and 120Hz because they only put out a 60Hz signal. Even if you're running a Blue Ray into it, 60Hz will amaze you.

What's great about it: Picture quality and deep blacks
What's not so great: Nothing so far.
We bought this for my mom and after we hooked it up, it looked better than our TV at home. Very deep blacks and crystal clear. She doesn't have internet but loves the HD. As far as I am concerned, no one beats Samsung. Got rid of our 2 yr old tv and bought a Samsung LED. Will never buy another brand.

What's not so great: no buttons on it so the remote is essential
My only objection is that if the remote is misplaced there are problems. It doesn't seem to have buttons on it that anyone in my family can find to turn the unit on/off, or adjust the volume. The remote seems to be essential.

What's great about it: Picture, sound, hook-ups
This TV looks amazing when hooked up to HDTV. There is no picture distortion what-so-ever and zero lag in the frames even when watching fast paced sports like hockey. The sound is very good for an LCD...in fact, I have yet to turn the volume up past 10, which isnt even close to the limit. The ONLY thing I do not like about the TV is the fact that it makes an odd beeping noise when you turn it on and off, which isnt too bad but it is very loud....an option to turn it off or down would be nice (although there may be an option, I havent really taken the time to look through the menu yet). Perfect size for a smaller living room/game room or a large bedroom. Couldnt be happier with the purchase and would recommend to others.

What's great about it: Picture Quality, Ease of Use, Multiple input handling
What's not so great: Built-in speakers OK but not spectacular
As with all the Samsung TV's I've owned, this one looks great and works great. Picture quality is superior for this price range, and it seems to do well with various types of input (cable, Blu-Ray/DVD, PC video, etc.)
Sound quality is OK, but it is well worth the investment to get a sound bar to really get the most out of games and movies.
P.S. - If you get irritated by the noise it makes on power up and power down, you can disable it through the menu. Trust me, you won't miss having the 'melody' enabled. :-)
