This is our first flat screen!After looking at Lcds,the Led had a better crisper picture.Sports are unbeliveable.Sound is lost because of the thin frame.You must have extra speakers.Christmas Holidays brought the price down.we will not have anything less.

I've had this TV for about 3 weeks now, and overall I think this is a great package.
I was most attracted to this because of a specific mounting location that called for a thin profile, it solves that problem beautifully! I mounted it on and it sits flush against the wall, and looks great!
Looking good is important, but even more important is how it performs. The picture is incredible - you can make the picture look exactly the way you want with the extensive user settable adjustments. Cable HD signals look good, Blu Ray looks even better and even SD signals from cable look OK - overall I'd say the picture is as good as I've seen in a family room setting.
Unfortunately the sound from the built in speakers is a little weak, but for general TV viewing, certainly acceptable. If you're going to do a lot of movie viewing, you might be happier with an external speaker system.

I have had this TV for over three months now and so far I have been very impressed with it overall. Got it at Best Buy in September (contrary to my experience, I got it even cheaper at Best Buy back then, than it was on Amazon), and am surprised, how so far the price has not dropped yet. Actually it has even crept up a little, right now before Christmas.
The first thing that gets your attention after you get it out of the box, is just how stylish and elegant is looks and how amazingly slim and relatively light (as in "not heavy") it is.
I am not generally an avid TV watcher, however I have given it a pretty good test drive so far, and used it quite a bit, and once again, I am very pleased with the results.
The picture quality is superb... the reason for only four stars is, of course, the not so great audio quality, that everyone else mentions...
but then there is also the issue with the light coming through and bleeding from the edge.
Another reviewer (who gave the TV just one star because of this) mentions this as well, and supposedly this is something common for Samsung TVs. Seems like this becomes more noticeable with time... first couple of weeks I did not see this at all, but now I have been noticing the bright light streak coming from the upper edge of the set. It is not ultra-annoying, and mostly I can live with it, however, especially during the really dark scenes, it becomes noticeable enough and does appear somewhat distracting.
Other than that, I have been very happy with the performance and the quality, and would definitely recommend it to anyone!

After about a year and a half of research I bought this TV off of Amazon. I had seen it in a store before I purchased it, and in the store it blew the other TVs around it away.
Having used this TV for about 2 weeks, I can safely say that it has in many ways lived up to my expectation. The color is true to life, the contrast excellent. Motion is seemless, and watching blue-ray movies on the TV is exquisite, and this is with out of the box settings! I have also played many hours of video games on this TV, and the image is mind blowing. My wife was astounded the first time I booted up our Xbox 360, saying "I'll never play video games on your computer again!" - Not sure if I am happy or sad about that one... Even for action games and FPS's this TV has had seemless visuals with no bluring, slowdown, or anything else I've heard negative about LCD/LED TV's. Many people complain that LEDs tend to have a washed out white "halo" around the outer rim of their TV, due to the way that the LED "side-lights" the display (in contrast to the "back-light" of an LCD TV. I use this TV in my basement with no other lighting, this is the worst possible scenario for these issues, and I almost never notice a problem. The only time I do notice this is if the lights are off and the screen is pure black (credits to a movie). Otherwise I can't say I notice this AT ALL.
My complaints about the devices are these:
1) It isn't true 120hz
2) Isn't best bang for the buck
This TV claims to be 120hz, but is really 60hz with "auto-motion plus," a feature that digitally inserts extra frames based on some sort of average of the current and next frame. This creates an artificial 120hz. I've found this system to be great for high quality images, as it gives me a fluid and realistic feel, which is almost creepy. On the other hand, this technology doesn't always do the images favors, and I've found when this technology is applied to standard definition video the effect is less then desirable. It is almost as if the feature accents problems with the image, making poor lighting and non-fluid movement obvious. That said, you can turn the feature off, but its burried in a complex menu system, and is a pain to toggle. I bought this TV thinking it was true 120hz, but I was wrong. Still, even with true-motion turned off action scenes are without skip, and look great.
My last and final complaint is that for the price this TV is quite as nice as I would have hoped. If it were a true 120hz this TV would be a 5 star purchase, but what you are really paying for is the LED factor, and not for the other features. All in all the interface, remote, and construction is top notch. Performance is admirable, but the TV is expensive, and I've seen LCD tvs for hundreds less that can compete with this TV in most departments.
A definite buy if you must have an LED TV. If you can go with LCD I'd consider buying something else.

I like this TV.
It has a great picture that is almost 3D like. It is a bit disconcerting at first and seems kind of unreal. But once you get used to it, the TV is great. Colors are accurate, the picture detail is very good and the black levels are good for LCD. I seem to have no issue with light bleeding from the corners in dark scenes. My Samsung Plasma still seems a little better on dark scenes but for most people this TV will be more than good enough.
The TV is easy to use and the form factor is fantastic. The TV sits close to the wall so plan ahead on where your cords need to go. The sound is pretty average which is the reason for only 4 stars. I realize this is a thin tv and engineering good sound is difficult but...the sound quality is not great. I would make the trade off for the form factor since I have other speakers to handle the sound. I would not recommend this tv to someone that has a larger room and has no home theater to handle the sound.
