Summary: A Brief Review
Comment: This is a nice tv..... so far as i can tell there is only one thing that's been bothering me about it. I am using this television as a PC monitor and television. If you want to use it as the PC monitory you have to be sure that the samsung 550 is ON FIRST AND THE HDMI/DVI SOURCE IS SELECTED (in the menue) BEFORE......BEFORE...you can turn on the computer .... otherwise, the tv won't recognize the computer and you have to hit the reset button on the pc and start over. It's kind of a drag. Now you may be saying that maybe it's my PC.... and maybe you'd be correct. I won't know untill i kick 800 bucks for a new pc system which is going to be a while. Ok..... so i run the sound out from the sound card and into the back of the tv using a 3mm cable...(i think it's 3mm, but whatever), and then run RCA cables from the "audio OUT LR" on the tv and into the back of my home stereo. So i get pretty good audio from my PC comming out my home theater. Surprising, there is no noticable hiss! I kicked out a very very cheap 40 bucks for twenty feet (or so) of think hdmi/dvi cable.....on amazon, the cable is HALF what a regular retail shop would charge!! I also got a six footer for a mesialy 10 bucks or so!! To rap it up.... i got the pc / tv / home stereo integrated pretty well. My next home stereo will have optical inputs so later i'll be able to run those out the tv instead of the RCA cables. Here's an afterthought....this puppy runs hot! In the winter it's going to double as my heating. Who knows, perhaps my gas bill will be lower this winter. for now, I just turn up the energy saver function to high. It's a cool option. I learned how to use the menue in a very short time, it's very simple to use. The remote light up when you push the "light" button.... that's kind of cool too....ok bla bla bla ...i'm rambling.......DRUM ROLE PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GIVE THIS PRODUCT A.....................................................................................................8.5 !!!
ps the resolution on this pup is bitchen !!

Summary: Much better the A450, Nearly as good if not as good as the A650
Comment: We looked at Alot of TV's in Stores and it came down to a choice between the Samsung A550, A650 and the Sony XBR.
At the End of the day the A550 looked as good as the Sony or the newer A650 and the price was the best of all 3. It was the only one to be had at slightly under 1k Bucks.
I tend to always buy the best if you can see or feel a difference between products regardless of price. I dont shop by Price only.
I feel that when you buy the best you are always happy and you dont always say too yourself that i wish i had spent the extra hundred or whatever for the other one.

Summary: very good product
Comment: I read other reviews about this product before I purchased this TV. People complained about the speakers they work very well I found the speakers excelent for the average room. The picture was excelent weather watching HD or plain digital broadcasts. This is the best value I found for making the step to HD. I would recomend this TV to everyone. EXCELENT PRODUCT.....

Summary: Good but not great
Comment: Picture quality is good for non-action video and with animation movies in hi def (Cars, etc.). Too much pixelation with sports programming.
