My 5 Stars January 10, 2009 I give 5 stars. Read the product description. That's what I expected and that's what I got. However the Auto Motion Plus 120Hz took a little to get used to but you can always turn that off. Overall very pleased.
Great product, AWFUL shipping January 6, 2009 So far, I love the TV. The only complaint that I have is that Amazon shipped it via CEVA, which completely dropped the ball on delivery. It made me wish more than anything that I just bought the TV locally, even if it was more expensive.
CEVA scheduled to deliver the TV on 3 separate days before they managed to get the TV to my house. Of course, on the first and second days, they waited until 1-2 hours *after* the 4 hour delivery window before notifying me that they weren't going to be coming. On the 3rd day, they delivered the TV only an hour after the delivery window. The 1st day, they claimed they had truck problems. The 2nd day, they claimed a tree fell on their truck. The 3rd day, they explained their lateness as a simple miscalculation.
Of course, CEVA couldn't give me any information when I called them during and after the shipping window ended. "Hi, the delivery window ended 30 minutes ago. I'm just checking to see if you're still coming, so I know if I should keep waiting at my house for you" I'd ask. They'd claim to try to contact the driver, but never managed to do so.
The worst shipping experience of my life. Awful service.

Recently my daughter bought a new samsung 46a550 and told me if I was going to buy one, this would be the way to go. After reading all I could, shopping around, and comparing specs and prices I decided to do the same. But I also liked the 630, for all the reasons stated on this site.
I was patient, and finally visited a local dealer in the Portland area and found that the price I could get on the 630 was about the same as the 550. So I pulled the trigger quickly and will receive the set in about a week.
I'm going to come back here and update this posting, to see if I would continue to support this product, or not. But frankly, I believe I got the best set (630) for the best price I could find. And, that make me very happy.
High quality LCD TV January 4, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The 46" Samsung LN46A630 meets all of our expectations with a clear picture, plenty of input options, and a stylish design. It has 3 modes to adjust brightness based on room lighting, fast 4ms response time, and little glare on the matte screen. It is also Energy Star compliant. We did a lot of research, but chose this model over similar Sony and Toshiba TVs because of the higher contrast ratio and the ability to update its firmware using USB. Compared to the other brands, we found it was an excellent value for the price ($1299).
best LCD TV I've seen January 3, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Samsung LN46A630 46" LCD TV is absolutely phenomenol. We did a lot of research before making this purchase direct from Amazon.com and couldn't be more pleased. In the end we relied on Consumer Report which had Samsung rated the highest in all screen sizes over 32". We had to decide between this model and the LN46A650 and decided on this one because of the anti-glare screen.
The color quality is the best I've seen and the audio is very good, as well, especially at mid-range. We do plan to add a home theater speaker system but only to create more of a theater atmosphere. This TV is very easy to install and the manual is very easy to follow. Using HDMI cables makes the installation a piece of cake and the remote is user friendly. Once you start using this TV you truly won't want to turn it off. It's that good.
We are using this TV in a downstairs area with some windows and interior lighting so we were concerned about glare and reflections. On the other hand, we also didn't want to sacrifice picture quality. After watching movies, sports events and regular programming on this TV we can confidently report there is no sacrifice of picture quality with this model. In addition, we have purposely used it during the day with all inside lighting turned on and have not seen any glaring or reflections, which is amazing.
Amazon.com was wonderful to work with. Not only did they have the best price but the free delivery was completed within one week of our online purchase. We are completely satisfied with this product and with the seller and would highly recommend both.
