Great Deal Samsung HLT5676S 56-Inch UltraSlim 1080p DLP HDTV
I watch alot of movies and had been using a DLP projector setup in My living room. The size of a DLP projector is hard to beat if setup properly but the downsides are ambiant light, pull down screens or blank walls. I finally decided to ditch the projector to move to a LCD/Plasma. I currently have a Samsung 37″ LCD in my bedroom and love it. Well after pricing 50″+ LCD’s and Plazmas i was in sticker shock. There where several 720p ones for “almost” resonable prices. But since i use it for gameing and computer also i prefered the 1080P (native 1920X1080) which jumped the price quite a bit. I had no interest in rear projection TV’s from my past viewings of them. They still have a few limitations. Viewing angle, to high or to low, or to far to a side will make the picture dark or faded looking. Once placed on a 2 foot tall stand it works perfect for me and I have no problems with viewing angle. I was unsure of the picture quality (once again from my time with older projection sets) but this TV is excellent. I have a PC hooked up and the Picture and text is clear. I was concerned with contrast, but watching dark movies has been great, i see no loss of detail in shadows or dark spots. Game systems look great, no motion blur. Overall I’m 100% satisified with this TV and am glad i got the extra size.
Screen blemishes, no international warranty !!! – Edmund H. Fernandes –
I like the TV, but my unit came with blemishes (small dark smudges) on the screen. SAMSUNG does not provide a warranty for international customers who purchase from the USA !!! (I buy in USA & ship to Trinidad)
I am an Amazon Prime customer & if I purchased from Amazon directly there may have been some redress.
I bought this item through Amazon from OneCall due to a better price at the time. So, I have to live with the black spots on my screen…oh well, you live & you learn.
My only other comment is that the audio quality should be better.
