Low Price Samsung LN40A650 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color

Before buying a friend and I did some research on plasma and lcds and ended up picking this Samsung despite other models that may have slightly better specs. The bottom line was I visited a local electronics store and this one looked the best. And it was the most reasonably priced 120Hz flat panel, given other features.

Amazon had the best price, by far. I googled and checked several comp shops.

I was a bit apprehensive after reading the reviews about bad service from the shipping company. However, my experience was very good. I ordered Friday morning (I actually entered the wrong ship to address, called Amazon, and had it fixed with no problem) and was contacted by the shipper the following Wed and arranged for delivery on the following Fri 8am-12pm. The truck driver left a message at 7:30am (I requested to be contacted 1/2 hr before drop off) and arrived at our place at 8:15am. They were courteous and asked whether or not we wanted materials removed and stayed to be sure it could receive channels.

The only issue was I was hooking the tv to my computer via HDMI. Buried in the manual is a comment that you need to set the screen type option to "just scan", rather than 4:3 or 16:9. Otherwise you end up losing some picture around the edges. It seems that this should be an automatically setup process, rather than having the user hunt through the manual. Regardless, I found the fix and it has been working great for the past day.Get more detail about Samsung LN40A650 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color.
