Nobody could even touch the Amazon price and I was very satisfied with my 40 inch Samsung. But a few months after the warranty ended the picture got noticeably worse and the unit would turn on sometimes and other times would not. from Amazon.com Great buy and great TV - service was fast and the carrier even hooked up the TV and showed us how to use the remote and etc. Very pleased. from Amazon.com Samsung LCD TVs last for about a year and half before the power supply breaks down due to the fact that they were made with faulty capacitors. This is a widespread problem that Samsung has been made well aware of but refuses to acknowledge. from Amazon.com Unfortunately the internet tech/repair sites are full of other customers that also have the same problem as I do with my Samsung TV. I have a 2008 model LCD HDTV that has already had two hdmi ports and the power board fail. from Amazon.com Pros: Fantastic Screen! 40"! Looks like a "mini-movie theatre" in my room. from Newegg.com Pros: EVERYTHING IS 100% A-OK. GIVE SERVICE & TV12 OUT 10 RATING. Cons: NONE, SO FAR. from Newegg.com I trully enjoy this TV and it's quality Samsung HDTV LCD LN40B550 and would recommend it to others from Amazon.com Pros: Very nice picture while it lasted. Cons: My 32 inch Samsung LCD was great for five months then died a spectacular death. While watching it one day, a huge spark arced out of the top of the TV, and it was absolutely dead. from Newegg.com Pros: Brilliant picture, excellent response time, plenty of HDMI ports, optical in/out, slick design, semi-gloss lcd coating, doesn't get hot (barely warm after a two hour 1080p movie), the remote is pretty nice... amber light instead of blue or green. from Newegg.com Pros: The contrast ratio on this television is stunning. The blacks are very dark. There is every kind of input you could need on the back and side of the unit. from Newegg.com
