Awesome TV!!
By malibujack from Getzville, NY on 11/24/2009.
Describe Yourself: Enthusiast
Pros: Good Resolution, Great Sound Quality, Great Picture Quality, Good Remote Control, Attractive Design, Fast Setup, Good Connection Options, Reduced Glare
Best Uses: Home Theater, Home
This TV replaced a 6.5 year old Toshiba HD Flat Screen Tube TV in our family room and I couldn't be happier. I researched TV's quite extensively for some time before deciding on this one. I always thought Samsung had/has the best picture out of any TV I have ever seen. This TV is only a 60hz, but I do not notice any difference over 120hz. I've watched football and racing and other fast action shows, and the picture is just outstanding! Granted not all shows are going to look as good as others on this TV or any HD TV for that matter, but that's because they are't all HD. I would definitely recommend this TV to others, as well as recommending ABT Electronics, which I actually already have. [...] I will definitely be purchasing more products from them in the future!!
