 Among the best at this size ... January 9, 2009
Having worked previously as an electronics salesman, I have a working knowledge of HDTVs. I always recommended the Samsung models as "among the best," but never had seen one within a home and running as most consumers would. Until recently ...
My mother owns this model and has for a few weeks now. It's classy-looking with a glossy outer bezel and an oval stand (included). The TV itself seems larger than the competitors, simply because the speakers are located on the sides. This helps give a more natural-sounding stereo effect without the extra cost of a home theater system. It's just got a high-end, quality look to it. Samsung LCDs are renowned for having a top-notch viewing angle. This holds true with this model. Stand nearly 180 to the side, and the picture is still bright and clear. LCDs have come a long way in a few short years.
The remote is well-marked and easy to use. TV-accessed menus are simple and quick to navigate. My mother, not well-versed in knowledge of consumer electronics, was able to configure the settings herself with very little help.
Unlike lower-end competitors, though, this 3-series Samsung does not offer any separate composite hookups (the 3 red, white, and yellow plugs). One of the component hookups must be used in place. If you have, say, a DVD/VCR combo, Dish Network (non-HD), and a Nintendo Wii to all hookup, you're out of luck. There simply isn't room for more than 2 non-HD inputs. It can be annoying to have to repeatedly unplug and replug items into your new TV. If you plan on using at least one of the HDMI plugs, though, this problem is avoided. However, be aware that most direct competitors do offer more non-HD hookups.
For the price, you can find larger TVs. Big retailers are often willing to sell last year's models at cheaper prices (ie 720p TVs) because most people spending $700+ want the latest and greatest. If you just want a quality TV and you plan on using the HDMI hookups for true High Definition viewing, this is probably the best picture you'll find. I made sure my mom knew what to look for when she went shopping - and she agreed by getting this one.
Best of luck to you!

It arrived on time and it's fabulous- very easy to set up. I'm a happy camper!
Great t.v. at a great price! December 8, 2008
Like many others, I've been hunting around for a flatscreen to replace an older "tube-type" television. My budget allowed about $600-$700. For the most part, I found I could easily buy a 32" tv, but I really wanted a 37". I found some, but they were from manufacturers whom I'd never heard from.
I'd done my research with Consumer Reports, visited several brick & morter stores as well as online stores. I didn't plan to purchase an extended warranty so I wanted to find one from a company with few returns. (Samsung was in Consumer Reports' top 5 list of companies to buy tv's from.) Although this exact model wasn't tested, several other similar models were and all ranked well.
I ordered through Amazon, but it came from 6ave.com. The price was right ($[...] w/free shipping & no tax), but I was very hesitant to order something as fragile as a television online. My worries were unfounded. While the outside box was taped poorly and was "leaking" styrofoam peanuts, the tv was in another box and was in perfect condition.
Set up was a snap and I am more than pleased with my purchase. Picture quality is excellent. The built-in sound system is great. While I've only had this for a couple days, I am very pleased with my investment. If you're looking for a quality product at a great price, look no further.

I have watched this TV for months. I have to say this is a very good TV. I am happy to buy this TV from Amazon with good price and no tax. Also, this TV was delivered to my door, so I only need to put on the TV stand and enjoy it.
