Consumer review of Samsung LN46A550 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV Consumer Rating: Summary: Nearly Perfect Review: I have had this TV for about 3 months now and it is very nice. Everything works and performs wonderfully. The colors are great and the picture is clear and very customizable. It is a nice looking TV as well, and the swivel stand makes it very easy to get to the back. Not to mention it is fairly thin and lightweight too. The ratio adjustment is great for different resolutions for different inputs. Not having to adjust the screen after playing a game to watching TV is very nice. Only 2 things bug me about the TV, first the speakers sound a little muffled at times and some options can only be used, such as PIP, by going into the menus and then adjusting it needs more menu browsing. Besides these 2 minor gripes it is an excellent TV quality-wise. I would recommend fully, and if you use external speakers there is no reason not to go with this series of TV. Consumer Rating: Summary: Took a Chance-Happy Review: OK, if you have been looking, really consider this set. I researched this television purchase for over a year, we wanted a bigger (not the biggest) set, this 46" Samsung fit the size AND PRICE needs. We have a small Samsung of the same age and it was very good with picture, action, color and ease of operation. But...should you make a major , large sized purchase online, without a brick and mortar store to get it back to? Even off Amazon....? The price was under $1500, this was the exact set Consumer Reports had given a glowing report to in the last issue and local retailers raved about Samsung sets they sold (I was shopping for Sony Bravia at the time)and Amazon's White Glove delivery seemed as if it should be ok...so ordered. Set came from PA to WI-Milwaukee, to be exact. It was in Milwaukee in a couple days, took the Milwaukee shipper 4 or 5 to get it here. We live in a small city, they probably make a run north once a week, when you are rural, you know this is the set up, so I was fine with the time issue. The delivery truck this shipper used was very well built, the Mercedes of vans....did, indeed have a Mercedes engine, items inside were ALL televisions and all were standing as they should, delivery fellow very cooperative...so, as a Wisconsin customer, all was reassuring. (We had had difficulty with smaller electronics by mail before, not through Amazon). The sound issue everyone speaks of....well, I notice it because everyone notices it and I knew to listen for it. Does the basic job.. Add some sound system if you want, we probably will when we get time. The motion issues have not occured, sports are fine, haven't tried games yet. Very user friendly for using menus and setting options. Do follow the guidelines for HOW FAR TO SIT from the television, sit too close and of course you will see the technology doing what it does! For our size set, it was recommended to be 11 feet or more away and at that distance or more, great, as it should be. Consumer Rating: Summary: The best 1080p Picture Quality for your money, subpar sound Review: Samsung is really making a name for themselves with their LCD TVs and other LCD products. The LN46A550 continues Samsung's tradition of higher standards of quality for their TV division, maintaining themselves as a top tier LCD manufacturer, alongside Sony and Sharp (Don't bother looking at other brands, particularly the cheaper ones: they lack reliability or picture quality). This set offers excellent picture quality for high definition media and TV at a very economical price. The only caveat is that a separate sound system would be recommended, as the range on the set's speakers is a bit lacking. This will be my fourth Samsung LCD product that I have purchased that I am surprisingly very happy with. My previous LCD HDTV was the LNR268W, a 26" 1080i set, which I happily owned for two years. It had great picture quality and surprisingly good sound, but because of the smaller size, the higher resolutions were a bit of a moot point. After waiting for prices on larger LCD sets (36"+) to come down some, and comparing many models, I decided on the LN46A550. GOOD: 1. The price of this set delivered cannot be beat. I had tried haggling with some big box retailers to bring down their pricing, but considering I'd be charged tax, there is no way they would be able to match Amazon's price + no tax + free shipping. This was my first major electronics purchase (all priors were for smaller items) from Amazon and I was very pleased with the speed and quality of the service. 2. After doing some tuning with the TV's settings using some professionally calibrated picture quality settings found on a thread in AVSforum (A popular forum for high end video fans), the LN46A550 was able to realize a great range of natural colors, contrast, and blacks and whites. It really brought out the picture and quality of my Blu-Ray discs, standard definition TV, PS3 games, and regular DVDs. With 5ms response time, I am not noticing as much ghosting as I did with my older 8ms response time set. Some of the higher end Sony's and Sharps can achieve similar results, but at a significantly higher price. It is of note that many of the preset color and picture quality settings on the TV are already very good, compared with other LCD manufacturers. 3. An awesome number of video inputs. 4. The additional features found in the A650 and A750 models did not seem to offset the increase in price, making the A550 the best buy. BAD: 1. Internal speakers are awful. I was able to tune them to get passable sound, but they still lack clarity if the volume is cranked up. Either all highs, all lows, or drowned out sound in the middle. A separate audio receiver and speaker set should be used with this TV. (If you have a 46" LCD HDTV and HD media, this is a must) Overall, this is a great set and I am very pleased with it. Despite the poor quality of the internal speakers, the overwhelming quality of the rest of the features give this LCD HDTV a full 5 stars. Samsung has a great reputation for the reliability of their LCD TV products, so I don't anticipate worrying about RMA's like some of the cheaper brands like Vizio, Olevia and Westinghouse that I was considered beforehand. If you're on the fence about which TV to get, consider this one. Price isn't dropping and I've seen it actually go up a bit. Consumer Rating: Summary: Great, but not perfect Review: I purchased this TV a month ago to replace a Sharp 46" (Costco model# LC46D62U) LCD that I used for two months before puchasing this TV. I did not like the black level, viewing angle, and VGA input not supporting 1920x1080 on the Sharp, so I decided to buy the Samsung. Since I've never really used any other LCD TV's (other than an older 32" no name brand LCD), I'll compare this Samsung with the Sharp. Appearance: Honestly, Sharp TV looked little better to me with thinner bezel and slimer profile. When I place the Samsung on the TV stand, I immediately noticed the thicker bezel which was not a plus for an overall appearance. This does not mean Samsung does not look good, but simply the transition from Sharp to Samsung did not impress me in terms of the look of the TV. Picture Quality: Black level and viewing angel are noticably better on this Samsung. HD satellite channles looks very good. I do not have a 1080P source, so I did not experience the highest possible picture quality. HD channels on Sharp TV's looked great also. Audio: Even with some adjustment, the back-firing internal speakers do not sound as good as most of other LCD TV's out there. I think Samsung made a mistake on this and hope they change the location of the speakers in the next version. I do use 5.1 channel sound system for movies and other stuff, but it's just not convenient and efficient to use the sound system for everything. User Interface: I like the Sharp's user interface better than Samsung. Again, it's the personal preference. Also, somehow reception range for the TV remote is very limited for the Samsung and I'm not sure if this is normal. Overall, I'm happy with the Samsung and wish they had better speakers (or location) and easier user interface. I also paid only $1,421 (Original purchase price of $1,479 less refund of $58 from Amazon price protection) I would choose Samsung over Sharp if I need to buy again. By the way, I'd give 5 star to Amazon customer service, price protection policy, and the white glove delivery service. Consumer Rating: Summary: Samsung LN46A550P 46-inch 1080p LCD HDTV Review: Here are my thoughts on my Samsung LN46A550P LCD TV purchase. I'll leave the technical analysis to those into all of the stats and numbers and stick to my real life user experience. Like many others, I researched the potential options and narrowed them down. I selected this TV as the best bang-for-the-buck I could find. Now that I've had it for about a month, I am positive I made the right decision! It has an exceptional picture! My whole family loves it. The myriad of settings the menus offer allow me to configure it to my exacting standards. The unit is aesthetically pleasing. The cost was very reasonable. I was concerned when I read some of the reviews lambasting it for having such horrible sound. I adjusted the levels in the TV's equalizer and it sounds great. It sounds better than my dad's Sharp Aquos. If I want an added kick, I just run it through my amp and get the full theater effect. The TV arrived in five days and the white-glove delivery was great! I tracked its progress along the way. No problems at all. The only thing I've noticed is that the TV's price on Amazon fluctuates all the time. I thought it was a good price when I bought it and it dropped within days. Then I saw it bump up again, then down! I was unaware of any price drop guarantee. If you have some time before buying, my advice is to keep checking the price and buy when it looks best. Don't hesitate! Get it! It's a great TV and a great value too!
