Editorial Review :

It won't take long for you to notice how beautiful the LN52B530 is. With a sleek, it's the perfect addition to your entertainment space. 1080p resolution produces the highest quality picture on the market and blacks and shadows are strikingly superb, thanks to the 60,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Best of all, this HDTV is Energy Star compliant, which means you'll save on your electric bill.

JUNK! CRAP! CHEAP! BROKE! RETURNED, and bought a BETTER MODEL

Yes, there are some good reviews, but none that have had this TV for a long period of time. You can take the chance in buying, HOPING you won't get a DUD, but the chances are slim as I hear Samsung has not fixed this problem yet. I bought this from Walmart a week ago and the picture was beautiful, BUT THESE ARE KNOWN FOR THE BACKLIGHT GOING OUT and that is what mine did....A WEEK LATER! It is a circuit card that goes bad, and Samsung has never fixed them. I will NEVER buy a Samsung again. Looking at Sony now!

UPDATE: I did buy another Samsung (I'm probably an idiot) from Crutchfield, and it is the LN52B630 model. It (Unlike this model) has 5 STARS (BUT I will say SAMSUNG CUSTOMER SUPPORT SUCKS!!!!!!). Pretty much the same TV, but updated, without all of the problems, more options, lighted remote, With an ETHERNET cable, you can get Stocks, weather and the latest news right on the TV screen, and so on. PLUS it is 120hz which gives a smoother picture! NICE OPTIONS, NICE PIC, and I will update later if it is NICELY built if it lasts. If it does not last, I am going straight to SONY!

Excellent Picture, Great Quality, Incredible Value

What an incredible television. You cannot beat this TV for the price. The BAD REVIEW listed on this site is for a different Samsung TV so I am a little confused as to why it remains. Do not let that bad review sway you from this purchase. The black trim around the screen is shiny black but the screen is matte finish so if you have glare issues like I do, this TV is great. The sound quality is just typical TV speaker quality; very little bass. I bought a set of Sony Shelf speakers on this site for $49.00 and they sound awesome (hooked up through a tuner). All my electronics integrated perfectly with this TV. You will be amazed at the quality of this TV and will ponder how you got such a great TV for the price. If your worried about the 60hz, there is no noticeable difference between it and the 120hz.

I have the same problem after just 2years, spent $300 to replace the parts. I will never buy a Samsung LCD TV again.

Great TV at a Great Price

This Samsung TV is excellent. The only drawback would be that it is not 120 Hz but my husband and myself can't tell the difference. We had been shopping around and this was a great deal.

Samsung Big Screen Convert

The resolution and color density is very sharp. The 120Hz helps smooth fast on-screen motion. The picture on digital HD programming is amazing. Of course, the screen size feels like everything in-screen is life size. Having only had Sony TVs for 25 years, I'm now a Samsung convert.

sound quality

The tv looks nice and has many features. Wish it had svideo for some of my older components. However, the sound has little to be desired. I know they try to remove the old school speakers in the front look and thats ok. But, for 1400 dollars please put a little more quality into the sound. Sounds like the tv is in a tin can. Yes alot of people have surround sound etc. I don't want to listen to regular tv in surround sound. My 37 inch samsung has better sound quality than this 52" Over all the picture is very nice and you can't tell that much difference between the LED and LCD for the price. Happy shopping

Samsung LN52B630 52-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color

I was a bit hesitant on buying a tv from amazon and having it shipped. After having done it I would definitely do it again. The TV itself is a great product and I definitely saved a lot of money buying it from amazon. When I was doing the research about CEVA, the shipping company, I got a lot of mixed reviews of good and bad. My experience with them was great. It came a day later than the estimate, but they did a great job on the day of delivery by calling ahead. I work about 30 minutes away from my house and they gave me a 1 hour call out prior to delivery and I met them at the house. They even opened it up and powered it up so I could inspect it. Needless to say I tipped the delivery drivers. I would definitely recommend this product and shipping company/Amazon to everyone.

Editorial Review :

Enjoy features like full 1080p HD resolution, a 20,000:1 contrast ratio, amazing color clarity and image detail. And that's just for starters. With this Samsung LCD TV no one gets left out - a 178? viewing angle means that all of your guests will be able to see the movie, no matter where they?re sitting. The 52" LN52A530 LCD TV offers all of this and more for a surefire way to get the full high-definition experience.
