This HDTV is astonishing. I had a 61″ rear projection that had a solid image, but It wasn’t anywhere nearly as fabulous as this. The image quality is marvellous. When scenes involve people in a room for instance it’s like looking in on them through a window each detail is brilliant, deep, and clear. And that is with standard definition.
I record some old black & White shows and they have never looked so great. High definition is nothing short of spectacular. This set can be set to have a 60 hz or 120 hz refresh.
The 60 is good, but the 120 gets it to the next level. The higher refresh rate gives nearly Blue Ray quality to scenes where there is distant details in the background. These details get visible with the higher refresh rate. I’m seeing perfectly with no artefacts in the picture at all.
The viewing angles are where I see a big difference from what I’m used to. The picture quality presents little or no change no matter how far to the side you get. I’ve laid on the floor directly below the set and the image is solid, and even when I stand right next to it and look down on it the picture is still great.
There are enough of inputs, including 4 HDMI ports. All these various input ports are accessible using the remote. The remote has all the standard characteristics, but it also includes a click wheel that I have found to work well. Clicking the center of the click wheel brings up a menu of the numerous features on this TV.I wont bother naming them here, there’s a good list on the site. Once the list comes up you can scroll and click through the many characteristics to use them or turn them off.
The screen is only 2 inches thick, and the whole set doesn’t weigh very much at all. You do see some blaze on the screen generally during the day. The screen can be pivoted thought an that helps a lot. The base is very stable. I have the set sitting on a sturdy but narrow table and because most of the weight of the set is in the base the TV sits nicely and isn’t tippy at all.
Only 2 inches thick, Samsung’s astonishing bran-new LN52A850 offers all of the characteristics of the 750 Series models in an incredibly light, sleek package.
I checked this set out at show room with many LCD’s and plasma’s on show and this set had what I say is the best image by far. Even in a large room with a lot of light. I recommend this TV without the slightest reluctance.
