After spending too much time on searching and viewing of these televisions to big box stores, I finally bought this set from Amazon and could not be happier.

I was in the plasma vs. LCD debate for a while ‘and decided that I needed / wanted the brightness of an LCD, does not want to worry about any burn in problems (I know they are almost nonexistent today, anyway). I wanted 1080p and most 1080p plasma sets are close to this price point as well. I debated for about a month between ln52a630 and ln52a750 recent years, and which one to buy. The matte screen on the 630 was his highlight for me, but there was a sacrifice in contrast ratio and various other little “bells and whistles.” The A750 is the most expensive, the price point has decreased so much, was practically a swap, too. Heard of the problems associated with glare 750 including Halo and TOC scaling issues, I decided the 630 with its matte screen is the TV for me.

So, I shopped price the A630 for a couple of weeks until I came across a new version of the set, the ln52b630. A little ‘money is well spent and more with the upgrade to this TV. The contrast ratio is 40,000:1 vs 80,000:1 twice, and also dominates in recent years, the contrast ratio of 50,000:1 A750. Again, this TV also has the matte screen! Almost no problems with reflections in my room very bright vision, which has more windows and a sliding glass door.

The quality of TV pictures is the best my friends and I have seen so far from an LCD. Deep blacks and brilliant brights are the comments I heard when people see this TV in operation. Clarity on Blu-ray 1080p 120Hz is breathtaking, almost do not want to look away from the screen. I have it connected to the service of Dish Network’s HD in 1080i and the PQ is superb, a slight loss of clarity and blur in fast moving sequences that exists in 1080p. Standard def programming also looks great as well.

As for the audio, I’ve setup via the surround sound, so I can not comment.

I still have to connect an Ethernet cable to use these features.
** UPDATE ** I connected the Ethernet cable and the InfoLink “features work as advertised. It is a nice feature, news, temperature / weather, stocks all positioned in the corners of the screen. Can I ever use it, probably not. But works as advertised. I wish that was a way to update the firmware on the television, rather than for these features.

Links to the USB port is another excellent feature. Allows you to play movies, music and pictures directly from the side of the TV with a USB flash drive or an external hard drive. It will play almost any codec you throw at it, presumably, x264 (HD), have not been able to verify this.

The remote is well designed and easy to use. Samsung has eliminated the dreaded “click-wheel ‘in this year the new models.

Delivery: Pilot was my shipping service, and I can not say anything bad about the service. Delivery early and made the necessary phone calls to arrange delivery. The box was in great form, as well as the television inside.

By D. McIntosh (Jersey City, NJ, USA)

I was looking for and participation in a new update television in the last 2 years. Samsung was one of the few manufacturers that offered to non-glare matte screens, which is necessary in our sun-filled living room. But I was always waiting for the right price. So when I was about to get the LN52A630, I heard about the new B series to be released in 2009. So I had to wait with 120Hz refresh rate and an upgrade from a dynamic contrast ratio of 80,000:1 to 40,000:1. Besides the look and shape of the series B seemed so much better to me that the series A. So Amazon had offered a Sony Blu-ray Free with the purchase of certain models of Samsung (including LN52B630), and that was my cue to finally place my order on 7/4/09.

Delivery:
When I placed our order I originally set the date of delivery for 7/15/09. Once I had the tracking number from Amazon and CEVA-mail notification of shipment, I started to monitor our TV. The result is one of their stores is located in very close to the PA and NJ. Our TV was right in our neighborhood on 7/7/09. CEVA so I gave him an invitation to provide information on early and were more than happy to deliver TV on 7/10/09. The delivery went well, and the communication I had with CEVA has been great. The kids have the TV up three flights of stairs, set the TV on the stand, gently put the TV on our console, then plugged in and turned on …

Product:
Photos – We started to change channels to see how it seemed. The image is really amazing. The default settings are really the film seem like a soap opera, which is really strange and fascinating at the same time. It takes time to find the right settings for the environment and the type of input. It ‘great that once the settings are set for a specific input maintains the settings. There are so many different settings, which allow a lot of flexibility to adapt to a particular input device. We have cable TV on their natural and AMP transparent. Cable HD is great and the standard is pretty good on a large screen LCD. XBOX is in game mode and it seems wonderful. My husband was dying to try Call of Duty on it and was totally blown away by the colors and the image on the screen. When it was time to look at the Blu-ray, we played Baraka (which I totally recommend the experience to appreciate 1080p). E ‘was unreal! The picture was extraordinary and the detail was incredible. E ‘be like we were there in person.

Sound – Even though we have our B630 hooked to our surround sound receiver, I tried the sound from the TV. It’s not bad and the volume is pretty decent, actually pretty strong even halfway.

Other – The B630 is a very interesting television. Everyone has commented touch of red and think it’s really cool. The inputs available are more than enough. Swivel stand is fantastic for when you are cooking or just turning around depends on my luck. The swivel stand is a plus, when you get to the back of the television to easily work on cables and inputs. Viewing angles are pretty good. Matte non-glare screen is wonderful too, no need to close the shades during the day anymore. Experience the USB input with an external hard drive media game and found the response time very fast for a TV. The media play mode is fairly intuitive and easy to use. Photos look amazing as well. I noticed the car blackout during the credits of movies and screens blacks. This happens when the option of saving energy is used. We set the option off and now darkness is nonexistent. InfoLink via Ethernet is a nice feature, but limiting. I hope that Samsung makes an update to enable widgets and viewing online. BTW, the Ethernet is great for getting firmware updates available from Samsung. V1009 firmware was available for download and the update was quick and seamless. Since I have not had the TV long enough, do not know what the firmware update improved, but the TV is working well.

We love our Samsung LN52B630. I must shamefully admit that I fell asleep watching television almost every night for the last 12 days. My husband would normally be jealous, but also shares the same feelings I have for our new TV. We recommend it to anyone and everyone. The TV has exceeded all our expectations. Amazon has allowed us to have an incredible price and free delivery service of large white gloves as well. It ‘a winner and we could not be happier.

By P. Butler

We were looking for a 55 “matte screen LCD TV, but does not seem to be any. I came across this 52″ and has had a chance, I could not find in our local shops. I’m very pleased, the picture is great. I am not an expert, so I can not give a thorough examination. I can say that my husband said he had a lot of pictures (the HD is great).
I also wanted to comment on the delivery. I read the reviews on other TVs that gave bad reviews of the pilot service. When I received the e-mail saying he would be handed to the pilot, I was expecting the worst. There service was great, they set it in the room I requested, attached the support and control to a blue screen and have no damage occurred before I signed. They also took away the packaging.
Also, Kudos to Amazon. I ordered the TV on Wednesday and Friday it was delivered. I could not ask for more. I am happy with the TV and Amazon’s service.

When I bought this TV from Amazon.com I had already decided on this Samsung 52 “series and was trying to decide between 650 and 750. At that time there was a small difference in price between the two on Amazon.com. I ended up choosing the 650 because I was putting the TV into a niche that had limited space.

The 650 has a less bulky frame around the LCD screen, and then it was only 50.2 cm in width than the 750 which is 52 “wide. Both screens are exactly the same viewing area. Beyond trying to accommodate my limited space, I felt that the smaller frame looked more beautiful on TV that the broader framework.

The other reason I chose the 650 is that it can swivel on the base, while the 750 is fixed on its base. Why do I put the TV in the corner, this swivel feature has come in very handy, as I had to get behind it from time to time to connect the cables, etc.

I read a lot about screen reflection and reinforcement potentially unpleasant experience for me while watching daytime TV mainly because the room is all windows is the way through two walls and is full of sunshine per day. I am pleased to report that screen reflection is absolutely no problem. The TV I was replacing with the Samsung LCD is a 32 old “Panasonic Panablack analog TV with a screen of glass, which had a lot of reflection. As a point of reference, the Samsung has about 20% of the reflection on the screen my old TV (judging from the time when the TV is off). When the TV is on, the Samsung has about 5% of reflection on the screen than what I used to have with my old TV, which can be due to the incredible brightness of the display.

I spent a number of months of this decision and I feel like hitting a home run with this purchase. Samsung has certainly exceeded my expectations with this model and I was very pleased with my first experience buying a TV online from Amazon.com.

December 20, 2008 UPDATE: I now owned the TV for more than 6 months. No Regrets. The television has survived well in a family with 5 children under the age of 10. It took a few direct hits to the screen with the toys thrown from a 2-year-old, but any marks on the screen easily rubbed off. It still seems like the day I realized and it works perfectly. I am very happy with this purchase.

June 7, 2009 UPDATE: Still going strong after 1 year. Absolutely no problem with the TV. Best buy I’ve ever done. Anyone who has seen hard to believe the quality of images. I get positive comments all the time.

By Scomel (Greensboro, NC)

I have had this TV since very early March. I’ve seen HD, SD and Blu-Ray and can not find a fault. The 650 handles motion very well to where blurring and other artifacts are vitually non-existent. The AMP is a very cool feature that brings a realism to film making it seem more realistic, or as if it were originally shot on HD Video. Some have said this gives off a ‘soap opera “effect. I see that description, but to me it makes film based DVD and movies look more like your watching a real game of life, the view through a window. It ‘a very cool!

I understand the concern of people with the glossy screens found on plasma and some LCD. This screen is a bit ‘less reflective of Samsung’s 71 series, but can still be a problem for some. It would be nice if there were a simple solution for this, but there is not. Sony and other manufacturers use a type of opaque screen that certainly helps or eliminates the problem, but introduces other negatives. I find colors and blacks just do not “pop” on matte screens and tend to wash more for off-angle viewing. The 650 has a picture with great depth and color from any angle, greatly adding the effect of immersion.

Much talk has been about the TOC bezel. I think Samsung has hit out the park with this. I absolutely love the red. I think it just adds a touch of class. It sets this tv apart from all others (although the picture quality is already present), while still being very subtle and retaining the ability to blend with any decor. Most people who came to my house do not even notice the red until the point it out. I am a little ‘tired of every set looking the same or a piano black bezel or flat black. This is a very welcome change.

I like many others suffered the closure problem. As has been said it appears Samsung has fixed the problem with a firmware upgrade. I updated the FW and so far so good. E ‘was annoying, but not a huge deal for me. Samsung should be commended for the speed with which it tackled the issue. I received several calls from upper level officials, who were very concerned with my problem. I never had this level of service from any other manufacturer. Well done Samsung! A side effect of the FW update is that the AMP processing received a boost. Before the FW update I usually had AMP on low at all times and occasionally put up. Now, I’m still in use at the low setting, but most of the time you put on the Middle occasionally, and find the setting a bit strong ‘too much for me. Can I put on High without most of the annoying artifacts people have desribed the 71 series has, which is nice, nut the actual effect is bit ‘too much for me.

Overall, this is the best LCD on the market. I can not see Sony or any of the other manufactures making a better TV this year. They can match perhaps, but certainly not overcome it. For those who were on the wall waiting to buy until the closure issue is resolved, your wait is over. Buy with complete confidence and enjoy one of the best TV’s out there!

By G. Corella “Amazon Enthusiast” (Sarasota, FL USA)

I did the research and visit sites of brick and mortar and I concluded the Samsung features are the best on the market today. I was concerned about the auto shutdown problem that I have read. I called Samsung customer support and was told that it is not a problem but did not mention the firmware update that is actually published on their website today. Go to the Samsung web site and look under “Support / News & Alerts” – A650 Series LCD TV Auto Off Firmware Update. A small number of Samsung A650 series LCD TVs turn off automatically. The models affected are:

* LN40A650A1F
* LN46A650A1F
* LN52A650A1F

Samsung has released a firmware update that fixes the problem. If you have one of these models, Samsung recommends you install this firmware update on your TV, even if you do not check the auto off problem. If you have a USB memory drive, you can download the firmware from our website. For complete instructions on how to download and install the firmware update, go to [...]. Unless you have a USB memory, Samsung can send a disc containing the firmware. To get a copy of the firmware has been sent to you, call Samsung Customer Care at 1-800-Samsung (1-800-726-7864). They have the model and serial numbers handy when you call.

Samsung LN52B750 52-Inch 1080p 240 Hz LCD HDTV with Charcoal Grey Touch of Color

Customer Reviews

I was the owner of an HDTV for six years and during this time, I saw about two dozen friends to their home theater HDTV equipment. I just upgraded to LN52B750 Samsung and I could not be happier. For reference, I am upgrading from a Samsung DLP and I own another Samsung LCD HDTV.

There are many things that have misunderstood this TV, rather than the usual pros and cons, I’d like to share how I am seeing the value of this set.

First, if you’re reading this, or you already own a LCD or have read about them – and have read about this new breed, and if you’re like me, you’re wondering what’s what.

Vortices of color – you never read about this, but if you watched TV on an LCD set in the past, especially with standard definition (SD) stations, you’ve seen. The backgrounds seem to be compressed color jpg file photo. My previous LCD HDTV (8ms response time) had it – this simply is not. (I had trouble watching the compression artifacts in a movie between 1930 and TCM on this TV – but that movie was so messed up, can not blame only the TV.)

Contrast – now that you have read all the LCD makers lie about this. If you’re confused and remember the old days sound that works this way: you would have a 35 Watt RMS / amp channel (8 ohms). Some might lie and call a 70 watt amplifier. Then there are still a bit ‘and call it a 140 watt amp (like about 4 ohm speakers?). Then there are still a little ‘and refer to peak rather than RMS – and suddenly a 35 watt amplifier is legally lie about like a 200-watt amplifier. Now – I do not know the details of legal enforcement to lie, but I think what I read – that exists in this area. This set is evaluated in a contrast of 150,000:1 – with each stroke of law relaxed as possible – the contrast on this set is amazing. I still can not believe that this is an LCD. It’s just that good in terms of contrast. A plasma having friend insisted for half an hour that I was wrong, and had obtained a plasma top line.

Blur / response / lag – LCDs are known for this weakness. This is not TV. Read on.

The quality of SD programs – some controversy exists. Not a problem on this TV. Read on.

AMP 240 Hz – this is the most misunderstood feature that I read on this TV. Nothing I read in a possible review prepared me for what to expect. I was buying the TV in part for this feature, noting that depending on who you believe, you turn this feature off, for the movie, but not sport, sport, but not the movie.

E ‘none of those on / off things. E ‘adjustable. Here are my simple suggestions based on my configuration:

1. DirecTV.

I use an HDMI cable Dayton, also bought on Amazon cable (surprisingly good – EUR), from my DirecTV HR20. I have the HR20 set to display all the resolutions in native mode. The resolution LN52B750 switches so quickly that this is not a problem. Unlike previous sets I owned, the HDMI input on your TV accepts 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p – the HR20 outputs all those on HDMI. Circles DirecTV, is well known to the TV set and your HR20 to the native resolution of your TV and turn off at exit Native HR20. That’s because the HR20 is presumably better at 3:2 pulldown processing compared to the top of the line of chipsets / firmware used only a few years ago, because the descent is between the steps of converting the satellite signal in TV frames – and My experience agrees with this.

However, I offer these simple tips – set its output HR20 natively, all the resolutions, and set the 240Hz processing to B750: Blur = 5, vibration = 3 – and you’ll be incredibly happy with the results of all the inputs of the program . My Boston Legal replicas have never looked so good and appear on some of the poorest signal (highly compressed) stations in my training. So, with this setting, and satellite SD 720p and 1080i programs look great – not fake at all. (And all you have to do to see the controversy on this feature is to “Turn It On ‘without customizing its adaptation – and wait for your eyes and stomach turn.)

I played baseball as a kid – loved it. I still remember that ball seems to pass through the air. When you’re with the right angle, you see a blur stob and clear, red dots. With Blur = 5, the vibration control = 3, I finally saw that looking only drop a ball curve (720p source). Higher or lower, the ball seems wrong – oh, yes, very exciting – but wrong.

So I strongly recommend this series for producing 240 Hz – providing you are willing to change these parameters slowly and study a lot of material to settle in what is right. I maintain that if you are an owner of DirecTV HR20, I have just given the key to really great SD and HD viewing.

And do not be afraid to blur those great films that would be missed from there – Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire seemed really great about it.

BTW – Resolution step on this series is FAST – you little or no experience additional delay when changing resolution. (Not true my older HDTV.)

2. HTPC (Home Theater PC)

I use a Mac mini. I know, people hate them, you pay too much for Mac, blah, blah, blah. The Mac mini is the correct form-factor for a HTPC. You can find duplicates of this form factor – and features directly comparable – in the Windows world for ** ** exactly the same price as a Mac mini – so, ‘Nuff said on price.

But – as one I know, only the built-in Apple DVD Player plays movies at 24 frames / second. Last I checked (and this may have changed by now), all other software (Win) reproduction at rates not TV: 60 frames / sec, with progressive scan, etc.

Now – I do not have to explain anything to brag Mac – this is all on Blu-Ray vs. DVD.

The de-tech vibration target of processing 240 Hz is entirely compatible Blu-Ray 24 fps (read: the Royal Theater) vs 30/60 fps (read: television signals).

I do not own a Blu-Ray – my gut, after all these years, it still tells me to wait for the right features and price.

But, I use a Mac mini for my HTPC and if you do – or are considering one – here is my recommendation (based on Leopard 10.5.7): DVD player with the best quality Deinterlacing, set preferences Display for Mac 1920×1080 at 24 Hz (progressive is the default), and feed that into your LN52B750 with options set to 240 Hz Blur = 5 or 6, vibration = 6 or 7 – and will drop your jaw. If you have a copy of the Moulin Rouge – use it as a reference for the settings. I particularly recommend to note that we will see the kittens of dust on the floor in chapter Tango Roxanne (among other things) and also suggest that you really love the depth and detail of the stars, lace and glitter in Your Song.

With those settings that will not only get a great HTPC, but you probably the best standard DVD player you’ve ever owned. Before LN52B750, it was very good – now it is unbelievable. Ghost Dog and Moulin Rouge on DVD are now fully three-dimensional fakey foreground (do not overdo it – in reality 3-D search) – I do not even know that this type of image is possible from a DVD.

I think my setup also shows how this TV does 1080p/24 fps with a source – I can only imagine that the Blu-ray seems even better.

3. Sound

People complain about the sound quality of LN52B750. I do not know. Did not use a TV for the sound in 8 years. I do not want to play a snob, but really – you pass a boat on your TV set and input sources, so listen to the TV speakers?

I do not go for surround sound. I am one who prefers the purest high-fidelity stereo audio. To each his own, but if you’re like me, here’s the secret about this: route the audio from the optical LN52B750 the Mac mini, not the optical port of DirecTV’s. This routing is surprisingly better. Use a software Rogue Amoeba LINEIN free, set all buffers to default values, except for output – use a buffer size of 2048 – to convert the optical stereo and the copper pipe that into your stereo system. This is the best TV-to-stereo sound that I got in 8 years.

I’m using large electrostatic panels, led by a 400 Watt (peak) / channel amplifier and a servo-controlled subwoofer 2 kW. Feel the sound throughout the room and the depth and spatial qualities are great. I recommend more money in a better stereo wiring and less space for surround sound, but that’s just me. To each his own.

4. Miscellaneous Adjustments

Next, a few words on opacity, adjustment and screen glare.

Clare – I have none. Yeah – I see a reflection on the screen at different times of day. The picture quality is so deep – is the contrast – not even notice glare, if it’s there. And the screen is not glossy, not dull. You feel bright, but as low-glare matte, but clear and crisp as polished. Are telling the truth about this improvement.

Opacity – left the set to burn in a couple of days before watching. This is a great tip for any large LCD display, among others. Opacity – I have none.

Settings: Go Very. Slow. I recommend not to touch anything for 24 hours of viewing. So far, I lowered the backlight and the contrast and brightness turned up. I’m not going to suggest the numbers here, though – there are too many factors, such as your room, which will dictate what is right. I will say that out of the box, the contrast is too high, as the backlight (but not the brightness) – so, as I said: Regular. Each. Parameter. Slowly. You’ll be happy.

5-26-09: Three things – absolutely * off * Dynamic Contrast Enhancement and Edge! In addition, Digital Noise Reduction (NR), default is auto – certainly on DVD, this causes a sort of electric eye to things like paper, better in the medium or high.

Color – I read a review that Auto favored over Native – I agree.

Movie mode – The default is Auto2 (optimized for scrolling text). Use Auto1 (film optimized) – text looks good.

5. Internet

This is not a function useless. I thought it would be – but it is not. If you’re using a Mac Mini and found the wireless network, go to System Preferences-> Network-> Ethernet and DHCP with manual IP – set to IP 192.168.2.1 – then go to sharing and share the ethernet connection through the airport. 100/1000BaseT perform a type of Ethernet cable (looks like a large phone connector) from your Mac to the TV. Set Internet TV as follows: IP = 192.168.2.2, mask = 255.255.255.0, and Gateway and DNS server is 192.168.2.1 – and it’s all ready.

Note – this functionality does not support DLNA on TV – and if you have an HTPC, especially a Mac, you do not want anyway. The music files will have to transcode to support the function – stick with music in its native format, and simply switch to Mac Front Row for your listening to music. You get higher quality and you’ve already made these decisions on the import of music – and I think the same applies if you are a Vista / Media Home user and which is your HTPC.

But – and this is a big but – if it is easy to connect your Mac or other HTPC to share its Internet connection. You already Get your operating system upgrades via the network, regardless of whether you prefer OS X or Windows. Well, guess what? This TV is at its heart, a lot of computer technology. Out of the box, my firmware LN52B750 was characterized by 3-30-2009 – and last week (May 2009), Samsung had a firmware update for this set. What Samsung has done the upgrade? I do not know and do not care. I left my Windows XP and Mac OS X is updated all the time. These guys want to fix things for free, do not argue – I take the correction.

Get it online and you’ll never have to sweat to get an update or remember how to transfer to your TV via a USB stick. For more than U.S. $ 2k, I do not like to sweat things. BTW, please note that at this point, the TV does not seem to support automatic updates – so that still need to go beyond that menu option. Not bad.

Having gotten this far, I have tried Yahoo widgets. This is a feature by far underestimated. Now I’m set to get the record 5 days of weather here, again, where the mother is, and other places where my business is. It places the TV show being watched in its own Shadowbox while displaying the widget. This is insanely faster and easier than using my Mac Dashboard widgets or DirecTV for the same thing – and I never lost track of my show and I never caught a mouse.

Oh – I also used Yahoo News and Video for the latest video web Hubble repairs during a long commercial break. Sure, it was low-res. But I did it with my remote, and not a mouse, and has not lost track of time on the internet to look stuff Hubble during a commercial break.

So – I strongly recommend the option of internet connection to this TV, too.

6. Heat

September LCD get hot, as you are. I burned my first LCD HDTV OnTime days long. I left this TV for 50 hours straight. And ‘the summer (here in the desert) and I have my swamp cooler – but the TV screen is still not very hot to the touch.

7. Confident business guests

Anyone who publishes, who have tested the X-inch model in this series, but this is the same – do not read them, do not believe them. Quality control for the production of LCD series increases exponentially as you go up in size. Only trust reviews on the actual set you are watching – no later than the next, not the model of last year.

8. LCD response time

This set is estimated at 2 ms. I heard that is a lie in a review of 120 Hz set – even if the reviewer does not refers producers. Reviewer who said they were simply taking 8 ms panels, and rating them a 4 ms when they are processing 120 Hz – and so, while my TV was in transit, he rightly asked whether the 2 ms is just the same formula is applied to a screen 8 ms at 240 Hz (4 in only 60 Hz, four times faster than 8 ms).

I have no idea of ground. All I can say for a fact is that this thing is razor sharp and free of motion artifacts (and scrolls) I have seen on my other 8 ms LCD HDTV. I hope this helps, certainly, with that confusion.

9. Actual Size

Not because he does this, but it does: you can see my Mac via DVI-HDMI connection and gives me an adjustment to fit the screen size. No more lost pixels, there is no need for more SwitchResX or DisplayConfigX. Not this option from DirecTV HDMI input. I do not know why.

But know this: for years, HDTV makers had hidden a bit ‘of edges, from upstream sources – causing no end of grief for the owners of HTPC. This set eliminates all these evils.

(**** UPDATE, May 23 – Fit Screen option works with any HD source – DirecTV or HTPC. Passa 480th input, and the Fit screen goes away. Also – when you get the show HistoryHD typical where they just stretch the image horizontally letterbox giving all that makes Pillsbury Doughboy, you can quickly resolve that with the passage of the TV to 4:3. You end up with a HD in the box – not as good as full-screen high-definition but better than watching the Pillsbury Doughboy.)

10. Properly adjusted.

We are told that the only way to do this is with a TV technology, and to pay for it professionally. Believe them. This TV is not less than 9 settings for red, green and blue – add brightness, gamma, etc. and you have more than a dozen adjustments there.

Think: 12-sided Rubic’s Cube – now have the idea.

So, I’m just adjusting the brightness / backlight / contrast me. All independent reviewers argue that the rocks of Samsung brand right out of the box to correct color. That was not true of my older Samsungs – that certainly is that. The color is just great.

13. The remote

I had things down to just my Mac remotely and my DirecTV remote. Now I have this third happening remotely, to use some of the features of this cooler TV. Just as most people use the surround sound, while I use stereo, seems to get most of the people instead of using several remotes integrated.

OK – I am a Luddite or something like that. We use multiple remotes. (This is for music, audio, photos and DVD controls, this to DirecTV and now this for switching input source and control my Yahoo widgets.) My wife and I just found this easier. So if you’re like us, in this regard:

This is a great distance. You feel comfortable in the hands like you would not believe it was lit, the keys are large enough to read. What else can I say about this?

14. Viewing distance

I look at my to 12.5 meters from the screen. This is well within reason for this TV size. If you look at a salon, be prepared to pace out what your viewing distance will be. I often see people in shops and judging by the high-definition televisions is 8 feet in front of one, 12 feet in front of another. Never do. I can not overstate the importance of television to judge the distance in line with its use.

15. Pilot Delivery

I got my LN52B750 delivery via Amazon’s pilot equipment. These guys were great. Others have had problems, many have not. Pilot seems to employ local students for their white glove delivery. My kids have been great local – ‘Nuff said.

16. Modified 6/13/2009 – If you record TV on Samsung’s site, which give a further period of 3 months for the warranty.

Well – that’s it. Thanks for reading. I hope I have contributed.

By EarlyMon (New Mexico, USA)

There are many things that have misunderstood this TV, rather than the usual pros and cons, I’d like to share how I am seeing the value of this set.

First, if you’re reading this, or you already own a LCD or have read about them – and have read about this new breed, and if you’re like me, you’re wondering what’s what.

Blur / response / lag – LCDs are known for this weakness. This is not TV. Read on.

The quality of SD programs – some controversy exists. Not a problem on this TV. Read on.

E ‘none of those on / off things. E ‘adjustable. Here are my simple suggestions based on my configuration:

1. DirecTV.

And do not be afraid of those big blur be missed by the films he wanted there – Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire seemed really great about it.

BTW – Resolution step on this series is FAST – you little or no experience additional delay when changing resolution. (Not true my older HDTV.)

2. HTPC (Home Theater PC)

Now – I do not have to explain anything to brag Mac – this is all on Blu-Ray vs. DVD.

The de-tech vibration target of processing 240 Hz is entirely compatible Blu-Ray 24 fps (read: the Royal Theater) vs 30/60 fps (read: television signals).

I do not own a Blu-Ray – my gut, after all these years, it still tells me to wait for the right features and price.

I think my setup also shows how this TV does 1080p/24 fps with a source – I can only imagine that the Blu-ray seems even better.

3. Sound

People complain about the sound quality of LN52B750. I do not know. I have not used a TV for the sound in 8 years. I do not want to play a snob, but really – you pass a boat on your TV set and input sources, so listen to the TV speakers?

4. Miscellaneous Adjustments

Next, a few words on opacity, adjustment and screen glare.

Opacity – left the set to burn in a couple of days before watching. This is a great tip for any large LCD display, among others. Opacity – I have none.

By M L (Frankfort,IL)

Got this from Amazon at a good price, although I’m sure that will drop a bit ‘more as the year goes on.
This TV is spectacular! Absolutely stunning, jaw drop picture. I can not say enough about it. Excellent blacks, infinitely adjustable to your liking.
When I turned I got “The Office” comes on and I swear that my mouth remained open for several minutes as it seemed that Michael was in the same room with me! Lots of inputs and the characteristics of this series, the internet connectivity, DLNA home networking, wonderful submissive TOC, which is gray instead of red on last year’s 750. Very polished bezel, the neck of crystal stand that pivots. The screen is bright, the reflections are not a problem for me, I tend to look in a dark room, but even with the curtains open, I see myself! AMP seems to work best in this series, as I also have a Samsung 4071, which has a small problem with AMP, which has been well documented over at the AVSForums.

Just like anything else is not perfect, hence the 4 stars instead of 5.
The sound is bad. I mean, you should link this up to a good stereo system, or at least a pair of powered computer speakers or a set state.
This TV attracts dust like Nobodies business.Either that or my house is very dirty. Front panel controls (which was rarely used anyway) is hard to say where they are (bottom right). Yahoo widgets, which are a bit ‘cold the first time I see them, are eh, not a problem. Perhaps as more become available I would be more excited.
There is no printed manual, is on a USB drive, called e-manual and no, not Spanish! There is a light uniform, when the screen is dark (no signal) is not sure if this is a problem for me yet does not seem to affect any quality, but something to watch.

This is a tv to 5 stars, but the sound is what makes fall 1. All other issues are not a big problem.
Amazon delivery was good, not issues.Overall are extremely satisfied!
Now, for a Blu-ray right!

By G. Arteaga (Chicago, IL)

I just received my LN52B750 this week and I must say that it is simply an amazing display of l’esperienza high definition. For the price, this is an LCD IMO great value – and not just because I bought it, I shopped around for about 1.5 months and could not find a better LCD with the characteristics of this series offers.
A friend has in recent years LN52A750 and I can honestly say the differences and updates the model ‘B’ – such as increasing the contrast ratio, 240Hz refresh rate and improve the functionality of Media USB 2.0.
If you are looking for a decent price LCD (with characteristics of the upper band), this is the TV for you!

Pro
-Image quality is amazing need to see in person to appreciate it.
Feature-Media 2.0 (USB) has been improved and very useful for looking at pictures / movies and music.
Swivel-Stand is convenient.
Coal-TOC is much thinner than the red on other models.
-Shipping and delivery was spot through Amazon.

Cons:
-The quality of sound (honestly not that bad, get a nice surround sound or a sound bar and the matter is debatable).

By D. Auzat (Studio City, CA)

I lived with this TV for about 5 months and I can not really say too many bad things about this TV. I had great expectations, BT had no idea that was met so clear.

There are things I want to be improved? Of course. But lets just start a list.

Sharpness and color: Great. I have not found the “perfect” setup yet, but it came very nice out of the box and I’m not in a hurry to sit down and mess around with it for a few hours for what would amount to a small incremental improvement.

Upscaling: much better than I linked to the receiver (Pioneer VSX-1019AH-K 7 Channel A / V Receiver (Black)), which among other things is amazing, especially for the price. Use the TV for not upscaling the receiver.

Performance: Great. I use for Wii, PS3 (games and Blue Ray), and digital cable. No problem with action games as high or fast movement. No special settings needed. How to play Batman: Arkham Asylum and wet (no, not adults) with excellent results.

Sound: Who cares, I use a receiver. But it is good for a TV.

Dimensions: Awesome, especially in my field of vision at 10 feet.

O.K. There are some small gripes, but far from show stoppers.

Media Play via USB works fine, but some tracks embedded audio out of sync more and more through the movie.
Addition, COME ON, SAMSUNG! pay the license for DTS. I have some avi files that I do not want to mux and not be so good.
Furthermore, it would kill to be able to play a m2ts file.
In particular I would like to see Media Play via eSATA port. Do not worry about file size then.

The new firmware update has added fast forward and rewind nifties and a couple others, but the above would be better.

Shipping and Service: Amazon has been difficult, at best the order. I was on the phone with customer service more than 8 times to get the thing paid for and delivered, and lost eventially payment without interest that I was looking for.

When it was delivered, the box was severely damaged. I almost did not accept, but I got on the phone with Big Screen Department, and they were great. They were ready to send a new and the old pick up the same day. I plugged in and everything worked well. (Did I mention the entire lower right corner was torn, that is falling). That caused the garbage to be in more remote and missing, but I ordered it through the Samsung and Big Screen Dept reimbursed me that day.

Aamazon Customer Service: Shame on you. Big Screen Dept Kudos.

Overall great September When my wife saw I ordered, he said, “Why did we ever need a big TV?” I looked because I did not even approach the understanding of the issue.
Now you look only at me and says, “We really made a great decision with this TV is amazing.” Hmmmph.

By W. Yang (Oakland, CA)

I will do my best to be fair with this review. I think this series has its merits, but too many flaws really bring it down.

While in some ways, this TV is a step forward in the line of Samsung LCD TVs, is a huge step backwards in other ways. LN52A750 compared to last year, the B750 is a bit ‘better black levels, much less flashlighting / blurring, and a convenient swivel base. Overall, the framework provides vibrant colors and incredible detail. I was really blown away by the appearance of Blu-ray at 24p native movement in full 1080p resolution. Samsung really packed in a ton of features, bells and whistles with this set. I loved it for the first day I owned, but soon I started noticing some worrisome aspects.

What really ruined this series for me are three extremely important things: (1) the transformation of poor movement (2) significant input lag and (3) viewing angles poor. The sad thing is that I have a 32 “Samsung LCD from 2006 (LNS3251D) exceeding the B750 in all these aspects. I’ll go into each in detail:

(1) Proposal Processing
For all Samsung boasts about how the much-vaunted 240hz, I was surprised how little this series maintained bike. Maybe it’s all the sophisticated image processing which is applied in modern LCD. But apart from native 24p sources, the B750 exhibited some bizarre artifacts of movement. Motion on this set are alternated looking smooth as silk (too, for a breakdown) and to be suddenly jerky and even kidnapping for a fraction of a second. It ‘a phenomenon some’ subtle to detect, but leaves a feeling of vertigo display. Even with 240hz mode applied (I tried a great combination of vibration and de-de-blur), the phenomenon has continued to exist.

As we stand on the issue of 240hz, I personally am not a believer in these ways and find them misleading. While 240hz mode, the set interpolates the motion between frames, which leads to artificially and unrealistically fluidity of movement, often referred to as the effect of “soap opera”. This completely ruined the natural cadence of film and TV fiction, but it may be useful for watching sports. It ‘just a bandaid, in my opinion, why is approaching the natural movement of the plasma treatment or CRT TV.

The only solution to the problem of processing motion was to apply Game Mode, which disables a lot of controls inherently reduces the amount of photos and image processing. I found this to be a solution acceptable to all. Unfortunately, here, my 3 years LNS3251D no such motion artifacts at all. A750 last year, the proposal also runs much better than the B750.

(2) Input Lag
Samsung claims a 2ms response time with this set. I find this hard to believe. When you look at the blue-ray, I noticed a significant delay in the photograph that led to lip-sync errors. This is correctable either by using the game mode or setting the LAG audio on your A / V When Auto-calibration lag Videos Rock Band 2, the B750 was about 130 ms, without Game Mode and Game Mode with 76ms. In comparison, the LNS3251D (rated 8ms by Samsung), measured 36ms without Game Mode (do not worry me at all BC Game Mode, this was excellent performance). It does not suffer from any of the lip sync error of B750. What has happened over the last three years?!

(3) Viewing Angles
Finally, viewing angles are a serious problem for this series. It is a very small sweet spot (at eye level and centered horizontally) in the center of the couch where the colors are bright, lively and precise. I was really disappointed that even slightly off-axis display LED significantly faded colors. I could not even sit on the side of my little couch without noticing the degraded image. In comparison, the LNS3251D and A750 last year are much better. Again, I have no idea why the B750 is so poor.

I think it’s important for these issues must be brought to light. Not everyone will be annoyed by all these issues. E ‘also suggested that I had a lemon (I sent this TV back to Amazon). But I am disturbed by the trend of global image processing unnecessary in modern LCD televisions. I ended up buying a Panasonic TCP54V10 to replace the TV and I could not be happier. I never turn on any game mode, I can sit on the floor and the picture does not change, and the movement feels natural and smooth. I really wanted to love the B750. E ‘packs a lot of features. But in the end did not deliver the most important, being a strong performance television.

By Billitteri “Word…”(Minnesota)

Let me begin by saying that this TV offers the best picture I’ve ever seen. After I finally bound up with a PS3 for playing Blu-Ray, I was even more impressed. According to CNet, the series of TV Samsung B750 exceeds the edge-lit LED TV (you know, those really thin). This is the absolute top of the 2009 Samsung line and, in my opinion, the best TV currently on the market. The blacks are blacks, the colors are accurate, the contrast is enormous, and the clarity is unmatched. Speakers are fine, but lacks the bass, as expected. Mine is connected in 5.1 surround sound.

That said, there was one small problem with the TV. When I realized, just my HDMI-1 was working. If I put something into HDMI-2, 3, or 4, the factors that appear on the screen switcher Source, but if I switched to them, the HDMI-1 would still display. I have noticed for some weeks, though, because I only had one HDMI source. However, the customer service of Samsung maintained their rated 5 stars.

1-800-SAMSUNG I called and was waiting for about 2 minutes. So I told the girl from customer service about my problem on the TV. Typed on everything I said and told me to put a repair ticket for me. Within the next two days, I receive a call from your nearest Samsung authorized service center. Total elapsed time, about 10 minutes. I do not wait two days for the next call, however. In 20 minutes, I was on the phone with the repair center. I explained my problem to the type of repair and he immediately ordered me a new card for entry. Once again, less than 10 minutes on the phone. Now, I had to wait a couple of days for the part to arrive at the repair center. Two days later, the coach was ready to come fix my TV (which still worked great, except the inputs). It came just when we reached an agreement and went into half an hour. Sunday I called, I think. He was ready to set the TV Wednesday.

Three days to repair a home that require a part shipped. They earned their 5 stars here.

By the way, check out CNet for their settings more accurate picture. Then watch a Blu-Ray that you’ve seen on TV. You will be planning for the difference.

SAMSUNG CAPACITOR PROBLEM

Ok, first let me bring the issue with Samsung LCD / Plasma and capacitors evil power. Many people have problems with their TV, which is directly connected to the blown capacitors due to bad design of the fuel system, which sit next to the heatsinks. Typically, these capacitors not between 11-18 months (depending on usage).

The most common symptoms of blown capacitors are:

1. Long time TV start. Usually preceded by clicking sounds (most attempts by the relay to start the TV)
2. Photo of problems. Gloomy picture, lines, or no image.
3. TV fails to start at all.

TV REVIEW
Pro
That said, I loved my Samsung LN52B750 for 2 days that it worked. Bold, rich colors and very deep blacks, who are the best I’d seen on a TV without a local dimming backlight. He had a whole slew of color and picture adjustments, including vibration and blur separate adjustment. The 240hz works great if you like that sort of thing (I like to STANDARD for motor-sport and off for the rest). A lot of connectivity and a beautiful design. E ‘was everything I wanted in a TV, after more than a month of research.

Cons –

Unfortunately the TV only lasted 2 days. I’m not sure if it was the capacitors blew, or if it was just a lemon. I would turn on the TV and get no picture. On a second start I wish I had a strange mist on the screen as its light pulse through the LCD panel, but the information there is no video (I posted a photo gallery in the customer until the top).

I decided to go back to Amazon instead of trying to do it fixed under warranty, since Samsung is known for their customer service. Amazon was very accommodating and issuing a full refund (less $ 53 shipping).

The only complaint I have is that the widgets are slow and a bit ‘useless. I uploaded the widget default and experienced excessively long load times, even if I’m on a 25/25 FiOS connection. I’m sure that people like them, and if I looked more I could find some real use for them, but they are just not for me.

So, I’m going to give this TV another shot and hope that the first was just a lemon. This particular model is not known for blown capacitors (but the A750 series is), so I will when and if that issue arises. All-in-all I like this TV, so that the failure of the first is not dissuade me to buy again.
