The good:
1. Amazing picture quality
2. Bright color great contrast...can't even tell it's on
3. Excellent remote
4. Lots of I/O ports to connect stuff
5. Very thin...looks like a picture frame on the wall (mounted it myself with Samsung slim mount)
The not so good:
1. The included DLNA software is pretty basic and not worth it. Recommend using PlayOn or something compatible though I'm not sure what all is compatible. I use it with PlayOn
2. Some in the TV or something that prevents you from watching a lot of the PlayOn content
3. The "widgets" are slow to come up and difficult to browse with the remote...I've mostly given up on them. I recommend attaching a laptop or pc through HDMI and getting a remote for the pc or better yet a bluetooth keyboard with trackpad.
4. The built in content isn't really that great
So overall, buy the TV (maybe one without the media stuff built in) but get a separate media device.

I purchased this TV expecting a high qualitity picture but became disappointed with the picture over time. The picture looks great with BlueRay but at times there are abnormalities or gliches in the motion of things. Another abnormality is while watching TV the faces sometimes look pasty and the back grounds like props, antimated or not real. The TV is better than the rear projector I had but not as good a a movie picture.

Could not be more pleased. Set-up was relatively easy, picture is outstanding and sound is surprisingly good after reading so many reports about poor quality sound. My only disappointment is that Samsung doesn't include with the TV the wireless internet gadget. The Amazon service and delivery was very satisfactory.

Picture is out of this world! There is color leak in the corners but not a biggie. Very happy i bought this TV. Even happier that i got it for 1999.99.

I bought this TV in Dec. 2009. It stopped working on April 17, 2010. It would will turn off and there is no picture (just the blue light that indicates that it's on). I called Samsung on a Saturday and they told me that a service center would call me within 2 business days. I wanted until Tuesday then I called the service center. They informed me that they had not heard from Samsung, but they could take the information and get approval from Samsung to fix it. He called me back a few hours later and said that Samsung would not approve the service call because they had a record of an older service call and they thought I needed a new remote control. I called Samsung and finally got it straightened out - apparently the guy I talked to on Saturday never did a thing with the information. I now have to wait a week for a service call. In the meantime I bought another TV (Toshiba) to watch that I will use in the bedroom when I get the Samsung fixed and I did not even consider a Samsung. The picture is great, but the reliability and service sucks. I have never had a TV fail so soon after purchase.
