The set is as good as everyone says it is. Ignore the thick manual and just use it as a reference. I just hooked everything up, turned the set on, followed the onscreen prompts, and the unit worked great.

I am so impressed with this Tv that I am in aweee. To think of the football games that Ive been missing in High Def just blows my mind.

This is a great television. The picture is great. I tested my Playstation 3 and Atari 2600, and they both look fantastic. Only problem I had was with my cable tv box. I could not plug the box in to the HDMI input. After a day of trying to get it to work, I called a neighbor with a Samsung, and he got it set up in ten minutes.

I was really impressed with the image quality of games at 1080p, plus no artifacts or smearing. Initially, the QAM tuner was able to pick up only a few “in-the-clear”

This is my first HDTV so I’m somewhat novice when it comes to looking at other sets. Although I looked at several other sets before I chose this one but settled on the Samsung because of the quality reputation and the fact it fits perfectly into my existing TV cabinet. Since the speakers are on the bottom of the set I was able to get 40″ instead of 37″ into the space. The 3″ makes a big difference, in fact it is the only 40″ that is 38.5″ wide.
