5 Stars great picture
The purchase experience was great from start to finish. The price was right. Delivery was great. Delivered right when it was supposed to and in perfect condition.
I can’t say enough about the ln40B550. It is beautiful. The only drawback is the sound. If you connect it to a surround sound system your there. I did some research and went with the cheaper 60hz rather than putting out for the 120 or 240hz. I don’t know how it could be much better though. PS3 Games, blue ray, and HD stations really shine.
Our cat attacks the animals on the screen.
I purchased the samsung bd3600 blue ray with streaming video also. a nice addition to the TV.
1 Stars Poor Quality Control
I purchased this (Samsung LN40B550) along with the Samsung BluRay player as part of a package deal. The BluRay player was defective from the start (have to restart it twice to get it to respond). The TV installed well, but within a week, the picture would started to flicker when it was started up. After a day or two, the picture failed entirely (through both the cable box and the BluRay player HDMI interfaces). When the TV works, it’s a nice box. However, based on the fact that I received two defective products from Samsung, I cannot recommend anything made by Samsung. It’s obvious that their quality control is ineffective. We’ll see how this gets resolved…
5 Stars This LCD HDTV is a must have
I was searching for an affordable LCD HDTV and can across this one and I loove it. The picture is nice and the sound from this TV is amazing. Most are not very loud but this model is fantastic.

4 Stars Great TV!
Also own a 46″ Samsung. Did the research again and we got the 40″. The picture is great. The sound, well I’m used to the surround on my 46″ even though, could be a bit better, would have given 5 stars. For the price you can’t go wrong.
