Samsung LN52A630 TV

$1,450.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
for years i was on the bleeding edge of technology and gadgets and such, but had fallen well behind the curve and actually enjoying it.
from www.amazon.com
beautiful picture, good edge smoothing for 480i inputs.
from www.amazon.com
this tv is supposed to have toc - the slightly red edge around the tv frame, which is pretty subtle when seen in person.
from www.amazon.com
the "touch of color" (toc): not really noticeable at all unless you get the sun shining through the mostly clear edge of the bezel.
from www.amazon.com
the only thing i noticed is that this tv does not have the red "splash of color" on the edges.

Sharp AQUOS LC46LE700 LCD TV

$1,780.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
localized dimming is far from perfected, so not a big deal it doesnt have it, but i was comparing this to the superthing samsung edgelit, and this was a more even picture imo.
from www.amazon.com
this means that the dimming can't perfectly match the image so you'll sometimes see edges glowing.
from www.amazon.com
the edge lighting on the samsung, the sharp's screen was brighter.
from www.amazon.com
- the edges in the images are not smooth enough (anti aliasing is poor)

Samsung LN40B530 TV

$767.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
it definitely gives me the edge.
from www.bestbuy.com
i had the geek squad hang it on the wall & they were quick, efficient & educational along the way.
from www.bestbuy.com
my previous unit was a hitachi plasma edtv, which i liked a lot, but this picture is just so much better.
from www.bestbuy.com
film editing, watching blu-ray, gaming, or just surfing the web, this samsung is definitely a great buy and affordable too!
from www.amazon.com
our previous tv was a hitachi plasma edtv that we thought was great, but this is a big improvement.

Samsung LN46B750 46 in. HDTV LCD TV

$1,669.00 Est. at Amazon

from paulsz28, www.newegg.com
to start up, but everyday people won't notice/care about it-i've noticed that the viewing angle falls off on the edges, but my seating arrangement is so that no seat is on that edge-price right now?
from www.amazon.com
i opted to go with the ln46b750 over the newer samsung un46b6000 led tv due to "screen uniformity" issues related to the edge-lit led screen mentioned in user reviews.
from www.amazon.com
kudo's on bleeding edge, emerging technologies.
from www.amazon.com
i also like the easy ability to plug-in a flash drive in one of the usb ports on the right edge of the set.
from paulsz28, www.newegg.com
haven't really explored the other widgets yet.-some flashlighting when the screen is black, like when switching inputs, or waiting on dvd to start up, but everyday people won't notice/care about

Samsung LN52B630 52 in. HDTV LCD TV

$1,745.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the only thing don't like is the connection panel is located closed to the right back edge of the tv.
from www.amazon.com
the edge lit led technology by samsung seems to have its problems and i couldn't justify the cost.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
other thoughts: i'd recommend it for the average user, but if you want the more cutting edge, get the 240hz model, but being this is the "budget" line from samsung, it's extremely impressive for it's

Toshiba Regza 42ZV650U 42 in. HDTV LCD TV

$1,280.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.crutchfield.com
there is no ghosting or jagged edges.
from mattseds, www.newegg.com
was heavily considering a plasma like the panasonic tc-p42s1, which would probably have edged this out in picture quality, but even with the neopdp it can't touch my toshiba on power consumption.
from www.amazon.com
my gamecube looks much better on this tv then the older sony 42" lcd it was connected to, much less artifacts and jagged edges that are smoothed down better.
from mattseds, www.newegg.com
other thoughts: blows away all 2007 era lcd's or plasmas i've seen, all but the best of either from 2008, and holds its own somewhere in the middle (for a lower price) among the newest crop of tv's.i
from RC, www.newegg.com
pros: i have always bought samsung lcd tv but for price side by side this kills samsung up to samsung new led tv .cheaper and better picture 120hz front and 120hz back light cons: as all new

Samsung LN55B650 55 in. HDTV LCD TV

$2,309.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
these refresh rates help to cut down the noise you get around the edges of moving objects.
from www.amazon.com
there are a few recommended fixes if you have clouding that is poor around the edges.
from www.amazon.com
the edge enhancement and digital nr features sharpen edges and remove video noise, respectively, but they also introduce video artifacts of their own and are probably best left off as well.

from robx46, www.newegg.com
there are so many features i'm forgetting as well, & the tweakability is awesome, a smart sound system.maybe the best sharp/samsung's out there have a slight edge in being the best, but are pricier
from Tell the truth, www.newegg.com
if you ask me the correct term should be edge smoothing or deburring rather than anti-aliasing.
from mattz, www.newegg.com
cons: none as of yet other thoughts: first tv i received had bad backlight bleeding on the top edge.

the tv is great and with a sony bravia-sync'ed upgrading dvd ($79) we get 1080p video which makes the blu-ray issue moot, for us anyway.

4) for a 52" tv its not that big - 3" thick with minimal edging around screen.

with analog signals, it looks a little fuzzy on the edges.
from www.amazon.com
chose this tv over the samsung ln46a650 because of the semi-matte finish and because it has less red around edge.
from www.amazon.com
cnet and other various sources pointed towards sony and samsung as the clear cut best in field tvs, giving samsung a slight edge.
from www.amazon.com
in fact, the only way that i saw any red on the set was when i busted out the flashlight and ran the beam around the edges.
from www.amazon.com
i recently saw a $1400 lcd 46 inch sony at a target (new edit 10/12/2008).

Samsung UN46B6000 TV

$2,015.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
each corner has faint bright spots which i assume is from the edge lit led.
from www.bestbuy.com
2) when you're watching a show in 4:3 or the video has a lot of black or dark edges, you can tell that this is an "edge-lit" led as you can see some faint lighting streaks coming from the edges.
from www.amazon.com
i know this led is edge technology type of led that some say it's not a true led, and lg's new model is true led, but that will consume more electricity and that is thicker and heavier than this one.
from www.amazon.com
the edge enhancement defaults cause super small details like computer text to become washed out.
from www.amazon.com
i suppose this is due to the edge lighting led's.
