CNET Editors' review - Samsung LN52A650
  Hide
CNET Editor's rating: 8.0 out of 10
Reviewed by David Katzmaier Review date: 4/29/08 Release date: 4/1/08 The good: Superb black-level performance; highly accurate color; improved 120Hz de-judder video processing; fine standard-definition processing; broad selection of picture setup options; can display weather, news, and stock info onscreen; energy-efficient compared with most like-size LCDs. The bad: Relatively expensive; red-colored frame isn't for everyone; shiny screen reflects ambient room lighting; some artifacts when de-judder modes are engaged; awkward click wheel remote. The bottom line: If you don't mind its red frame, the Samsung LN52A650 LCD TV will reward you with a massive feature set and excellent picture quality. Product brief - Samsung LN52A650

Description: The Samsung LN52A650 is a 52-inch, liquid crystal display television. Compared to other liquid crystal display TVs on the market, it is expensive at around $2,485. This unit is an LCD display, which is generally the best kind of flat-panel screen for viewing in brightly-lit rooms. Pros: Has a 52-inch screen size. This is larger than the average TV on the market today, but is to be expected for a TV of this price. With built-in HDTV compatibility, this unit can display images that are significantly sharper and more realistic than regular television, as long as the source is high definition. (It can easily render standard-resolution digital TV broadcasts and also depict the full resolution of widescreen DVD video.) The 3:2 pulldown feature of this unit reduces artifacts that can occur when motion pictures are transferred to a digital format such as DVD. Cons: Has only a rear connector location. Suitability: A liquid crystal display TV, suited for home entertainment as well as work place applications. Also, a wide aspect display such as this one is ideal for DVD movies recorded in the popular 16:9 format, as well as high definition programming. Value: Overall, this TV's features are as expected for this price. However, liquid crystal display TVs with comparable viewable size have an average cost of around $3,595.
