Great tv! May 6, 2010 D. larose (louisiana) i would definatly recommend this tv to anyone looking for a quality tv at a good price. i purchased this tv about 2 months ago and it has been performing well.
pros-
definatly looks great. lots of inputs...and digital optical audio out for my z-5500 ss system. and price
cons-
sound. the speakers on the tv do not really put out too well. i have had the volume almost maxxed. it was loud but it did not sound clear. if you are going to spend $1200, why not $200 on audio???
all in all..great tv..great price. i am completed satisfied with my purchase!!
Samsung LCD HDTV April 23, 2010 John Horton (Neptune Beach, Fl USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
In early 2009 I purchased a LN52A550 LCD HDTV from Amazon which was delivered by Pilot trucking, who also set it up. At the time I noticed that some input jacks were not functioning but didn't complain until I got my wife a Wii and needed tmore jacks. A week later they replaced circuits so the jacks would work. Several weeks later the TV began turning itself on and off, requiring another warranty repair. More recently, on April 8, 2010, it was still turning itself on and off so I again called Samsung to schedule more repairs. At that time I was told both verbally and via several e-mails that the warranty covered it but that the warranty would soon expire on Apr. 30. On Apr. 23, not having heard from the repair people, I again called Samsung. They told me that the warranty had expired on Apr. 1 and that any repairs would be at my expense. When I pointed out that I had several e-mails from them stating that my warranty would not expire until Apr. 30 and that the e-mail's could be used as evidence in court, they put me on hold until finally agreeing that they would honor the Apr. 30 expiration date. I am very troubled by the fact that they backdated the warranty expiration in hopes that I would pay for the warranty repair. That was clearly illegal. I am also disturbed by the cronic failure of the TV. For tose reasons I will never buy another Samsung product nor recommend threm to anyone.
Samsung 52" is amazing! April 1, 2010 K. Toy (San Francisco, CA USA) The picture is amazing when a 1080i or 1080p source is playing. It's like being in a movie theater. 720p is soft and 480p is softer and you can really see the difference of 1080i/1080p vs 720p and 480p on a screen this big.
Controls on the remote are pretty easy to understand. Color controls are very good. There are 3 settings depending on the ambient light and you can quickly switch from 1 to the other. Screen controls are also easy to understand and easy to switch back and forth from 16:9 to "wide fit/screen fit" depending on the signal.
The two things that I have a slight problem with are the connector tube to the stand and the design of the remote. The tube could be sturdier. The remote handle curves down and out (sort of like the old Star Trek phaser grip) and this causes the remote to drop off the coffee table onto the floor if you don't take the time to put it EXACTLY entirely on the table. Annoying when you just want to watch the show/movie/game.
The sound coming from the unit is good but I plan on hooking it up to a home theater system.
Overall, I think the Samsung is an excellent unit and purchasing from Amazon Warehouse is a fantastic way to save lots of money!
Love my new flat screen! March 23, 2010 Callie Chunestudy (Tahlequah, OK, US) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very impressed with the resolution and color on my new tv! I especially like the fact that there are plenty of ports for different hardware hook-ups and the pre-set screen features make it easy to find the best picture for what you are watching quickly.
Good for about 2 weeks March 18, 2010 B. Hawkinson 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ordered from Amazon Feb. 2010 Great price, good picture, good delivery time. After about two weeks of use the picture now blinks off and on after the T.V. has been on for about an hour. Picture is on for about 3 sec. then goes off for a second. The audio never goes away just the picture. It doesn't matter which input source I use, sat., over air ant., or DVD player. Amazon will take back for full refund or exchange for another model. Problem is this model is no longer available. A similar model will be more expensive. What to do? Called Samsung, awaiting a call from tech support to schedual a time to repair it. Don't know if i should return it for refund while I still can or get it fixed. Disappointed with Samsung but happy with Amazons customer service.
