I waited a few months after purchasing this tv, before attempting a review.MY experiences/opinions are (scale of 1-10, 10 being the best):Handling, ability to move to desired location: 10 ... light, easy for 1 person to move,maneuver, install on standEasiness to initially setup/get useful asap: 10 ... You really do NOT need the directions, but they are excellentConnections amount,availability, setup: 10 ... I have cable, a PS3, and Xbox360, dvd ... too easy if you ask me !Viewing: 9 ... great from even extreme angles. Adjustments in the menu DO fine tune your individual needs. : the 1080P shines in action movies, sports, and especially video games ... resolution is phenomenal ! : I've experienced NO bleeding of colors or blurriness in high speed transitionsAudio: 7 ... OK at best, but I bought it for its viewing capabilities, NOT expecting a 'Bose' audio capacity. One of its menu items allows you to keep advertising volumes the same as network broadcast volumes... Mine does NOT function that way... commercials still too loud I have it (easily connected to) enhanced by my stereo system, so this is a wash as far as I am concerned when wanting to listen to a Nascar race, music concert, or other venue.Price: I did a LOT of homework, and found the price very acceptable in comparison to other tv's boasting similar if not identical capabilities... I bought mine on sale at Best Buy, but lucked into a good priceGreen : Not much heat coming out of the uppermost exhaust ventsMy end result: A great buy. YES, a thumbs "UP" ! After owning a SONY HD tv, and experienced their lack of customer attention/satisfaction... a lack of callback on their part force me to forever part with them as a trusted manufacturer. In my opinion, their (SONY) trusted name is forever trashed/overpriced... if they will not service what they sell... I want no part of them !

I'm watching baseball on the LN40B530 as I write this, and am blown away by the crisp picture and wonderful colors. The sound is fine as far as my family is concerned. I did make some adjustments to the equalizer, which improved how it sounded right out of the box. I walked past the "tv wall" at a local Best Buy, and to me this TV looked as good as the ones in the $2,000-and-up range. As far as its being "only" 60hz, it looked better than some of the 120hz ones. Maybe if you're a heavy gamer that's an important consideration, but nobody here is. Our previous TV was a Hitachi plasma EDTV that we thought was great, but this is a big improvement. Can't wait to see a blue-ray disc on it. I wonder if the previous reviewer had a defective one. None of their complaints are true of this unit at all.

I this is my 2nd LCD and the picture quality is amazing! With 60,000:1 contrast ratio, the colors just POP and make everything look realistic. Standard definition picture quality is good(i.e. standard cable), but HD quality is amazing. My last set was a philips and the colors on people's faces didn't quite look realistic but this samsung, everything looks realistic. The picture settings out of the box are pretty good but with a little adjustment(you can find calibration settings online) the PQ is amazing. The only compliant I have with this TV is the sound which is more than acceptable though.
