- I'm loving it
- First off, I'm glad my girlfriend convinced me to pick this 46 inch TV instead of the 52 inch I was dying for. They don't look that big when you look at them at the retail stores ( I bought it from Amazon, of course. I just went to a retail store to see what they look like). When I first got it, I had to push my furniture all the way against the wall, because the screen was so big, I just couldn't get used to it right away (I just upgraded from a 32 inch LCD). I'm in the process of buying a house with a nice recreational room, so pretty soon that won't be a problem anymore.
Ok, about the TV:
It looks just great. It's just gorgeous and very nice to look at. The screen resolution is amazing. At the beginning, I just couldn't get used to the "soap opera effect", but after I turned it off I felt the movies looked even better. Although I own a PS3, I am not a gamer. I only use it to watch blu ray movies, and yes, you can appreciate even the smallest details in the picture. Sound wise, I feel it is just ok, but I don't mind because I have a home theater.
Overall, I just feel that I got a great deal on it and I am extremely satisfied. Like many consumers, I did my research, and read as many reviews as possible. - 2008-11-03, 1 of 2 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Amazon Great - Glad I went with the Samsung LN46A650
- I first looked at the high ends Sharp versus the high end Samsung - side by side the Samsung came out on top with me. With the introduction of the Samsung LN46A850&950 the price on the 650 & 750 model's dropped - I considered upgrading and paying the extra money and going to the 850 or 950 models. Since I already had a subwoofer I didn't need one built in and the connectivity and everything else I wanted and would use is already on the 650 model. In addition - seeing the model's side by side - I liked the beveled edge look better than the newer models square look design. The picture and quality are identical with the now - more expensive model's. Unless they make more significant upgrades, and unless you need a blue touch of color versus a red touch of color - I recommend going with the 650. Delivered to the house for just over $1,500 is a great deal. Amazon was great as usual - the TV showed up quickly and in great shape. I paid $40 more than going with a unknown supplier - from the reviews I have read - it was well worth the difference to have the security of Amazon backing up my purchase. I wish I had the space to go with the 52 inch.

- Excellent TV overall
- This is one of the best purchases I have made, yes the price is a bit shaky but I won't mind since I wanted the TV now not after BlackFriday :-).
The only issue I have seen with this TV: Pixelation on HD channels when connected to the same outlet as my DTV HD Receiver is connected to and my Fan's light is ON.
Nobody could tell the real issue, so at this moment the I have plugged the power of the TV in another room to make it work. - 2008-11-02, 0 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:

- This TV is wonderful. Looks beautiful and has a defined picture. Wathing Blu-ray with the 120Hz on makes view high action sence more clear and earier to watch. The shipping was great arrived 3 days eariler than I though it would and in excellent condition.

- Great TV for the Price
- I did much research on the internet and narrowed it down to this and Sony. I agree the Sonys are more expensive due to name brand. The delivery service was excellent. It was delivered earlier then due date. It was delivered in time frame agreed and they borught into house, unpacked it, setup basic tv hookup and had me inspect it. Could not ask for anything more and it was FREE!!. I shopped for price and even with store discounts, Amazon was by far the cheapest and that is before tax free. After going to the store this was the TV with the best picture for a LCD. However after ready reviews, I had concerns about the glare, the red tint around frame. I also considered the 750 but decide the glow around the edges would bother me and was not worth getting the memory in the TV, slight better tech. the base third speaker and the internet connect. I have had the TV for close to a month. The picture is clear the colors are bright and it looks almost 3d. The hook-ups were easy and numerous. I switched to a HD cable box and went form component to HDMI. Results were a better picture, but manu times the picture was not full screen. Have to play with that. I have two big picture windows in room and the glare was a problem until I rearranged the room to put the TV against the same wall as the window. THe glare is not an issue anymore. I also like the red tint around the frame. It is not noticable unless you look for it. It is deep in color and blends somewhat with the black of the frame. I read in the manual if you want digital sound do not route you other devices through the TV but directly to the receiver. Still playing with the speaker and wiring to get the best sound. For a TV the sound from the speakers was more than exceptable. I did not care about the PIP and have not tried it. The remote is acceptable and has back lighting when in the dark. I did not hang the TV so having the swivel stand (750 does not)a plus since many times during setup, It was nice to turn the TV to get to the hookups to add the next device or change the wiring. I feel for me I made the correct decision. Good luck in your decisionand what you pick makes you as happy as I am with my decision.
One last note, I also found a fantastic corner stand that fits in the corner nicely is 2 feet tall and is very sturdy. It was over $300 but looks sharp with the TV. Best price was circuit city and model is BUS VS1183603 Bush Segments Collection Video Base. - 2008-11-02, 1 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
