Samsung LN55B650 Samsung knows TVs - This is a Beauty

I have had this TV for around 2 Months now and I must say that I am impressed with the overall styling, picture, and feature set. I was looking at the 240hz models and in the 52" models but decided on this one because it was under 2K and was 55". I also spoke with friends that have the 240hz TVs and they say that the effect is probably too much on anything except sports. The picture through HDMI on this TV is not short of phenominal! The colors are rich and vibrant and it is tack sharp. You will need to turn the backlight down to around 7. I was concerned about glare because I have huge picture windows opposite my TV. The glare from the windows is very little. This may be helped by the way I mounted it and turned it down (angle) to help with glare. The glare is about 20% of about what my projection TV was! If it does not bother me in my living room then it probably would not bother most. My picture windows are about 3.5 feet by 10 feet and there are 3 in the living room and 3 in the adjoined kitchen. To say the least I am very pleased with this purchase. I just hope that I do not have to ever deal with Samsung support because I have had a bad experience lately trying to get my bd-p1500 blu-ray player replaced. I upgraded the firmware and it would not play ANY blu-ray movies rented at BB. I sent it in and they sent it back saying nothing is wrong with it. This is lame! Dear Samsung... you make great products. Stand behind them so we can keep buying them! If this TV is in your budget and you want the best bang for your buck then this is it.... Sparq
