Auto Motion Plus 120Hz

This technology doubles the frame rate from 60 to 120 frames per second (120Hz LCD panel) without repeating the same image to make more frames. lnstead, the TV intelligently calculates the ‘middle’ image between frame A and frame B and inserts it in between (Auto Motion Plus 120Hz processor), making a fluid transition from one frame to the next.

Super Clear Panel

Samsung enhances the clarity of select LCD HDTVs by replacing the light-diffusing plastic face of traditional LCD HDTVs with a  natural black panel with a clear anti-glare shield. Reduced reflection of external light creates a new dimension in image clarity, highlighting black and darkened areas, enabling vibrant, more compelling colors and a brighter, clearer picture.  Black will never again appear grayish. Black details will show in vivid black even in dark scenes. The latest version of Samsung’s breakthrough super clear panel technology makes colors appear more vibrant and blacks even deeper than ever. Enhanced films reduce glare and optimize off-angle viewing.

Wide Color Enhancer/Cold Cathode Flourescent Lamp

The NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) has established the color standards all TVs in America try to meet. And typical LCD TVs only meet about 72% of this standard. Samsung LCD HDTVs use Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp backlights to give you 92% coverage of the NTSC standard, ensuring truer, more breathlessly vivid colors. Samsung’s exclusive Wide Color Enhancer technology delivers more brilliant colors, even in bright areas of the picture where blues and greens are washed out on conventional screens. The system displays wider color reproduction, showing you truer colors – the fresh green of spring foliage, the intense blue of the summer sky.

Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA)

You already know something about digital living. There’s the TV and digital video recorder in your family room. (And another set in your bedroom.) You have a PC and digital printer in your office, along with a network attached storage device. And you’ve copied all your music onto your portable music player and haven’t had to open a CD case for years. But getting them to talk to each other can be pretty tough. Why is it still so difficult to send digital content from one device to another? Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a collaboration of the world’s leading consumer electronics, PC and mobile companies that has created design guidelines for a new generation of products that can work together — no matter the brand. Think for a moment about all of the photos 'locked away' on your home PC that you wish you could access while entertaining your friends and family. Now, thanks to DLNA enabled devices, a DLNA-enabled PC can be accessed from the comfort of your living room or family room via a DLNA-enabled HDTV, where you can enjoy your memories with friends and family, without having to deal with the hassle and non-intuitive 'PCexperience'. 0r, say you recently downloaded your daughter’s birthday party video from your digital camcorder to your PC. Now you want to share it with your parents who are visiting. Without DLNA, you probably have to burn a DVD of the video or hook up the camcorder to the TV. With DLNA, you can just use your TV’s remote to call up the video on your TV. That’s it.

Audio Features

TruSurround is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience through any two-speaker playback system, including internal television speakers and headphones. lt is fully compatible with all multichannel formats up to 5.1 channels. High-quality virtual surround sound can be experienced with just the two hidden, downward-firing side-mounted 2.2-channel dome speakers built into the TV.

SRS TruSurround XT technology delivers an amazing, simulated 3D effect with clear dialog and powerful bass.

TruSurround XT audio also adds three audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience.

• Dialog Clarity brings movie dialog into Focus during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper.
• TruBass creates incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself.
• The SRS W0W feature widens the soundstage by processing standard two-channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo audio over a two-speaker system.

Stereo broadcast reception is offered for MTS and SAP with 181-channel capacity. A sound leveler keeps audio volume consistent during channel changing.

Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?

With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. lf you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get. Minimum size = Viewing distance/3 Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

Buyer's feedback: - * HDMI ...
Make sure you buy an HDMI cable. Much better than composite or S-video. Plus you only need one cable for both video and audio. Great picture. Make sure your cable box has HDMI output. If not call cable company and ask for a swap.

Buyer's feedback: - BEST YET
You need to have a good source of hd programming in your area to get the full benifits this tv has to offer. its breath taking. a blu ray player gives full 1080p.but even with 1080i that most cable broad cast in its great to see bright bold colors. it wont make you sea sick on fast pace sports or action movies with the added 120hz. im still in awe of its beauty. if thinking of buying sony dont do it .Samsung is a step above and for less $$$ the 650 is just as nice with a couple less feature not much different for most users.

Buyer's feedback: - * Amazing TV ...
This is an incredible TV. After previewing it at a store, we decided to purchase it online to save a few $$$$. The picture seems to be almost better than when we saw it in the store.

Delivery was a little slower than expected, but, it arrived only one day late. Box arrived with no visible damage at all.

This is a great TV for a bright room. The display is very crisp. Colors are incredible. Sunlight in the room does not take away from the colors on the TV. Setup of the TV was fairly straightforward.

WLink option takes some "tweaking" to get it to work. We are now able to display pictures, play movies and music from our computer directly to the TV. That was a big selling point for us on this TV. Be sure to download the latest version of the share manager software.

Buyer's feedback: - Awesome all around TV with a little more
This LCD TV is amazing. I spent months looking for the right TV for the right price. The color contrast ratio is one of the best on any LCD TV. Playing games, watching HDTV, and Blue Ray is stunning. I only really looked the visual capabilities of the TV's, but was surprised when I turned on the sound of the TV. It's clear and crisp.

The auto motion plus is simply amazing for sports. It's a totally new experience. With 4 HDMI ports there is plenty of to go around for all devices.

The TV has many extra little features like USB side mount that allows very easy access to set up all those home movies.

The info Link is a cool little feature that allows you to see the weather, stock, and news. This is a cool little feature that is just nice to have.

My only negative to this TV has nothing to do with the TV, but the remote itself. It always seems to stop working at random time and work at others. The remote is not nearly as sleek as the TV. But get your self a universal remote and that is simply taken care of.

Buyer's feedback: - * Great HDTV! ...
I have this TV mounted on my wall using a Peerless Universal tilt wall mount for 37" - 60" flat panel TVs. The TV is great, no problems with shipping, or install. The picture is just fantastic, I have the Direct TV HD with all the bells and whistles. The sound is pretty good when using just the TV, but better with a surround sound receiver and speakers. I have the network hooked to it, and a LACIE NAS drive with all my music and pictures. It all works as expected. I also purchased the Samsung PB-D1500 Blue ray player. This combo is nice as the player is in a cabinet and the TV transmits the remote control signals to it without an additional repeater. I have read other reviews which seemed to suggest that the touch of red was annoying. The Touch of Red does not even light up, it's so subtle that you can only see it when direct sunlight hits it. I'd recommend this TV to anyone I know. (In fact there are 3 family members that have Samsung flat screen TV's now!)
