A few of the LN52A650A1F models have reportedly turned off automatically and Samsung has released a firmware update to correct the problem. Samsung recommends this firmware update only if your television has this problem.

Consumer Feedback

Rating: ★★★★¾ 

Pros: Great picture, deep blacks, lots of features, easy to setup and use
Cons: Shinny screen picks up reflections during the day but this can be compensated for by angling the screen a bit.
Summary: I have the 46 inch and it has a fantastic picture. Crystal clear and razor sharp with excellent color rendering and dark blacks. It was a snap to setup. Great on screen menus make it easy. I knew the glossy screen had its drawbacks when viewing during daylight since I have 6 windows in my viewing room. However, I did not know it would be so easy to compensate for. All I have to do is turn the screen a few degrees, easy with its adjustable base, and I can eliminate most of the glare without closing the blinds or sacrificing picture quality. I am very happy with it. Updated
I almost forgot, I LOVE the red tones all around the frame. Quite unique!

I bought this to replace a Panasonic TH-50PX6U 50″ plasma. I have done a ton of research and settled on this model. I knew it would be great for Bluray discs via my PS3- and oh my is it- I tried out my BD disc of Disney’s Cars- it looks almost 3D-AMAZING!!! My biggest suprise is how much better HD tv looks than the Panasonic. Granted it takes a little tweaking- take your time and try ALL of the various picture options- there are a lot of them and it can seem overwhelming. Buy.com had it to me in 5 days with a GREAT price. One other thing- this is truly the sexiest TV I have seen to date. Worth every penny!!!!

Pros: Great tv. The color is by far the best I have seen. Can hook up to the net with Cat 5 or wireless. Color is outstanding. Looks better to me than other TVs. Base is strong, and the tv can pivot on it without strain. Has wall mounting features as well.
Cons: Non HD channels suck, really bad. That is from the picture trying to make it as clear as possible. The remote is a little too touchy, as when trying to nav the tv options. Weighs like 76 pounds.
Other Thoughts: Great tv, I bought the 32″ tv and the 22″ desktop mon!! What can I say, it is well worth the money.
