Manufacturer's Description
Samsung adds a Touch of Color to a blazing-fast 4ms response time and rich connectivity features to redefine the role HDTVs play in the home with its forward-looking Series 6 (A650) and Series 7 (A750) LCD HDTVs. Utilizing the award-winning technologies found in all Samsung HDTVs, Series 6 and 7 HDTVs deliver unparalleled picture quality and enhanced connectivity and networking capabilities that create a true entertainment hub for any home. Series 7 takes networking and multimedia management to a whole new level. Consumers can easily enjoy MPEG and JPEG files stored on external devices by connecting through a side-mounted USB 2.0, turning their LCD into a full-scale home viewing gallery, or connect their MP3 players for a dynamic audio experience. h2span style="font-weight: bold;"img align="right" alt="lifestyle" hspace="10" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/cat-500/Samsung/detail-pages/samsung-lcd-2008-lifestyle.jpg" style="width: 430px; height: 344px;" vspace="10" /Key Features/span/h2 h3/h3 ul lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio/span: up from 25,000:1 on 2007 models (Learn morespan/span)br / /li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"Blazing 4ms response time:/span down from 8ms on 2007 models thanks to a new high-speed liquid crystalbr / /li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"Transparent and Opaque Color (TOC) bezel/span with infused color creates an ultra-sleek shape and appearance (Learn more)br / /li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"InfoLink/span: Get free RSS feeds of news, weather and sports right to your HDTV with a built-in Ethernet port (Learn more)br / /li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"4 HDMI 1.3 ports/span: Simplay compliant, and up from 3 on 2007 models (Learn more)br / /li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"Sports and Game modes/span boost on-screen performance and interaction with the latest gaming systems/li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"Side-mounted USB 2.0 port: /spanconnect USB devices directly to your HDTV to view JPEG photos or MPEG movies or easily listen to your MP3 player through your HDTV's audio system or your home theater system.br / /li lispan style="font-weight: bold;"/spanspan style="font-weight: bold;"span style="color: #ff0000;"New/span -- /spanCompatible with Samsung's Home Digital Media Adapter (sold separately) for playback and navigation of Internet and stored PC multimedia/li liFull 1080p HD (Learn more)/li liAutomotion Plus 120Hz image interpolation technology provides smoother motion (Learn more)br / /li li178-degree viewing angle from all four axes with Super Patterned Vertical Alignment (Learn more)br / /li liBetter clear panel technology for deeper blacks and more vibrant colors (Learn more)/li liHidden speakers with SRS TruSurround XT audio (Learn more)/li liCold Cathode Flourescent Lamp (CCFL) and Wide Color Enhancer technology offer a wider color range (Learn more)/li liPicture-in-Picture (PIP) enables convenient simultaneous viewing of TV programs and video or PC sources/li liV-Chip system1 allows blocking of rated TV and movie programs determined by the parent to contain objectionable content./li liTrilingual on-screen displays in English, Spanish or French. br / /li liVariable sleep timer to turn the TV off in varying time intervals./li liAuto wall mount compatible: 3-dimensional operation via TVrsquo;s remote control; no external IR receiver required./li liSwivel stand included/li li1 year parts and 1 year labor warranty (90 days parts and labor for commercial use), with in-home service, backed by Samsung toll-free support./li /ul ul /ul h3span style="font-weight: bold;"Step-Up Features/span/h3 span style="font-weight: bold;"/span ul lispan style="font-weight: bold;"Series 7: /spanInternal flash memory (1GB) with pre-loaded interactive content such as cooking recipes, children's entertainment, HD artwork and morespan style="font-weight: bold;", /spanIntegrated wooferspan style="font-weight: bold;" /spanfor an enhanced audio experience, DLNA-Compatibility for better interopability with electronics, computers and mobile devices from many different manufacturers (Learn more)/li listrongSeries 8:/strong super-slim 1.9-inch thick profilebr / /li liComparison of Features for various Samsung LCD HDTV models /li liWhat size TV should you get?/li /ul span style="font-weight: bold;"br / /span h2Learn More/h2 h2span style="font-weight: bold;"/span/h2 h3stronga name="toc"Touch of Color/strong/h3 table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" style="text-align: left; width: 100%;" tbody tr td style="vertical-align: top;"img alt="Touch of Color" hspace="10" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/cat-500/Samsung/detail-pages/samsung-lcd-2008-toc-cu.jpg" style="width: 430px; height: 315px;" vspace="10" //td td style="vertical-align: top;"Samsungrsquo;s Series 6 marks the first appearance of TOC (Touch of Color) design in the 2008 LCD HDTV line-up.

5 out of 5 stars Great TV   December 1, 2008
Bones (Fargo, ND)
Purchased this TV in November, 2008. No problems with ordering. Delivery went very smooth. White glove delivery worked great. Delivery guys set up TV. However, in our part of the country, it is cold in November, so I wanted to wait until TV warmed to room temperature to fire it up. No problems. TV is excellent. Had been investigating this TV for a while. This was my choice because of the 50,000:1 contract ratio 4ms response time. With the price drop and 2 year no interest financing, figured it was time to make the move. This is my third Samsung and won't buy anything else as they have the best picture. Go into any electronics store and compare side by side. Samsung blows away all others. Some other reviews have criticized the TOC. It is so subtle that I can't imagine anyone complaining about it. No problems with screen glare either. If you are looking for a new TV, you won't be disappointed with the 650 series from Samsung.


5 out of 5 stars Outstanding !!!!!   December 1, 2008
Wakeboarding Mom (Knoxville, TN USA)
First time purchasing with Amazon, very, very, pleased with the entire experience. Saved a bundle of money on shipping costs, and the product was far less than retail store competitors. Friends family can't believe the picture, just outstanding! Recommend to anyone looking to score a beautiful LCD HDTV. Personally love the Red Touch of Color, looks fabulous with our red mahogany furniture.


3 out of 5 stars Great TV with a "Little" Problem   December 1, 2008
D. Osborn (Kirtland, Ohio USA)
GOOD NEWS: Make no mistake, the A650 is a great TV. BAD NEWS: the A650 developed a glitch on the screen shortly after I purchased it from Amazon. GOOD NEWS: going online to Samsung.com got me an extra 3 months on my warranty. BAD NEWS: Samsung.com customer support sucks. It took weeks to finally get a repairman in. GOOD NEWS: the A650 got fixed (it took two visits by the repairman to figure out what was wrong (the display) but he got it working and it looks great).


5 out of 5 stars Far surpassed my expectations!   November 30, 2008
Henry Iovinelli Jr. (Dallas, TX)
This TV is definitely at the top of its class. br / br /I own an older model Samsung (LN4041), which is a 720p unit, and it was time to upgrade to a 1080. I have been looking at this LN52A650 for quite some time, comparing it to other manufacturers and models, and checking prices. The 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 120HZ, and 4ms response put it at the top of my list. When I finally bought it, I couldn't wait for it to arrive! br / br /On the scheduled delivery day, I was told to expect delivery between 11am and 3pm, with a call 30 minutes prior to arrival. That call came at 10am - earlier than I expected, but fine with me! At 10:30, they arrived. The delivery men brought it into my living room, unpacked it, put it on the stand, plugged it in, opened the remote, put the batteries in, and handed it to me. After verifying that the TV works, I signed their paperwork and they were on their way - about 10 - 15 minutes, and back to work for me. br / br /When I got home that night, I couldn't wait to finish the installation. I have a wall mount for this, and all I had to do was take the old one down and put the new one up. Well the old TV is pretty light (about 50 pounds), so it came down easily. Well this new one is much bigger and heavier! It took about 6 tries before I got it hung on the wall mount, and I was pretty tired afterwards. It was recommended that I have help doing this, but I didn't think I needed it. Looking back, I now recommend a second person. The last thin you would want to do is drop your new $2000 TV while installing it. br / br /Once installed and connected, I turned on my new TV!! The last channel I was watching was Spike HD, so that's the first thing that came on. Star Wars III was playing when my new TV booted up, and let me tell you, the picture and sound were simply AMAZING!! It looks 100 times better than my other TV. I'm not sure if it's the 720 vs 1080 or the size difference (or both), but I couldn't be happier with it. Every channel, whether HD or not, looks incredible. br / br /The controls are pretty straight-forward. I didn't need to read through the manual to figure out the basics, although the manual is well-written. I also have a Samsung blu-ray player, and it still auto-detects it even though it is plugged into my Sony receiver. I have the TV hard-wired to my internet router, and it easily set itself up. br / br /So far, after 2 weeks, I can't find anything negative to say about the LN52A650. I looked at the A750 also, but the only difference between them was the additional storage capacity, which I don't need. Also, the A750 does not included picture-in-picture, and while I don't use that feature much, I want to have the option. br / br /If you're thinking about buying this TV, I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed.


5 out of 5 stars just what the doctor ordered   November 29, 2008
K. wilson (North Port, FL)
Must admit i was worried about buying something like this online. But have no fear Amazon came through with flying colors. Speaking of colors all i can say is WOW this t.v is awesome it really delivers the goods. I did a lot of research and had decided this was the one for me. Delivery was as promised and i did purchase some 1.3 hdmi cables from amazon for 10.00 bucks a piece and they work great with my blu-ray and yahama rec. with hdmi and 1080 passthrough. sports , movies hdtv and even basic cable stuff looks sooooo good. You can plug in almost anything to it to. DONT BE AFRAID I RECCOMMEND IT HIGHLY
