2.5 Years in and the problems start

I have enjoyed this tv very much for the past couple years. The picture was very good, it interfaced with all my devices very quickly and easily. The sound wasn't the greatest, but acceptable for a set of tv speakers. The big problem is that the ir sensor on the front started becoming 'blind' last week. Meaning that the remote has to be within 12 inches of the tv in order for it to work.

Great TV, but Samsung changed the spec

I bought this TV in 12/06. At that time it was advertised as 1080i resolution and 15,000/1 dynamic contrast. This is what I got.
However, I now read where the item is listed as 768 resolution and 3000/1 contrast.
Something tells me samsung reserves the right to alter specs on an item after it is released.
Needless to say, the TV I received is magnificant regarding video (5-star). The audio would be rated 4-star as I get a vibration if I turn it louder than 1/2 way up. I don't care because I have a 5.1 surround sound system hooked up to it.
I hope everyone got the same spec tv I got (1080i-15000/1) but I'm afraid they didn't.
If I rated MY tv anything lower than 5-star, I'd be lying. It's a great tv. (LNS4041D)

Died after 2 1/2 years

Loved the TV for the fist 2 1/2 years. Had a great picture. But then it started taking longer and longer to turn on. Now, it does not power on at all. Seems to be a familiar problem with Samsung TVs as I researched this online and it seems to affect mostly Samsung brands.
Would be curious to see how others are faring with their TV after 2 years...

3 years and it won't turn on anymore

Like some other posters, the common Samsung problem started occuring recently where it took longer and longer to turn on. Yesterday this TV finally died and just makes clicking noises. Obviously warranty is out of the question, and having it fixed by a professional would almost cost as much as a new tv. Sad that most Samsungs seem to only last under 3 years based on a lot of research I've done regarding this problem on the internet.

Was great but little support

I've had this installed for about 6 months with my Samsung 52" lcd and it was great for about... 6 months. However, just recently the tilt up/down motion quit working (even after reseting it several times). It tries to go down, but then quickly flips back to horizontal. I mostly use it for panning to the side and that part still works - therefore I still like having this. But I noticed when installing there was minimal directions and support. And now that tilt isn't working - there's really no where to go to get help (even self help instructions).

Not Compatible with 3 550 LCD TVs

I am sure this is great and wish my TV would work all of its functions. I found out after buying it that three TVs are not compatible with this mount. They are the LN37A550P3F , LN40A550P3F ,and LN46A550P3F. Anything other models with an EX-LINK should work. This should have been fully disclosed in bold print to any prospective buyer.

Totally Rocks!

I bought one for my Samsung 52" A650 LCD and it is so cool! I picked up another two of them from Second Act.com before they went out of business. They were blowing them out for like $140.00 shipped! I got one for my 40" Samsung 4071F and the 3rd one is just extra in case something breaks down on the other two. Very cool to see in action. They are very heavy so use good lag bolts and make sure you hit a stud in your wall on at least 4 of the points. The anchors and screws that are provided are crap. The anchors just spun in the sheet rock when I tried to screw in their screws.

Outstanding...literally

I've had this Sanyo mount for about a month and it's been absolutely fantastic. We typically watch the TV from either the kitchen or adjacent family room and it's great being able to have the mount switch between two viewing positions. Jeez it's fun being lazy :) !! As long as the thing works for a few years, I'll be happy (and I'll be back to update my review if it doesn't).

Great Picture, But has inherent power supply board design issue

I bought this around 1 year before and I can tell you that the image quality and aesthetic appeal are great.
But the downside is that this TV has a very basic design issue with its power supply. The electrolytic capacitors used in the power supply are low voltage rated and will eventually blow up(if you are unlucky). The symptoms are clicking sound when powered up, delay in powering up.. And the TV will not power up after a few days. As far as I know, this is a common problem in most of their models released during this time and is a very basic issue which they should have recalled and replaced the faulty capacitors.
As a solution, you can replace the capacitors very easily if you are good with handling a soldering iron. I replaced them and it is working good. But I would think that most of the customers would not want to go through the trouble of opening it up and repairing.
But other than that, this TV is great and I really love watching movies. I have a hometheatre as the sound does not match with the picture performance of the TV (that is understandable and I dont think of it as a minus).

The auto shut-off issue is real and I lived through it

As an owner of a Samsung 52750 I am quite torn. We love the tv and we choose it because of the quality of the image and features (the sound quality, sizes, and the swivel base are really nice), and ultimately for the price point. But we did live through the hell that is the 'auto shut-off' issue you will find mentioned by several reviewers here and on other sites.. and it is real. And like others have said, it started for us by just turning off once every few days and coming back up, then it got more frequent over a couple months, to a point where it wouldn't come up all the way again at all.. it would just cycle through restarting over, and over and over. Samsung support was good in expediting the fix to a local repair rep, but then we got put in a queue of about a week or more for them to get out and repair it. What's worse is it took them 5 (!) trips to our house to finally replace the right part that fully corrected it. So that means we lived without a normal functioning tv for nearly 2 months, said and done. Fortunately, we've been pretty much issue-free for about 10 months now, but it has shut off a couple times and has not seemed to continued. But we do live on the edge of our seats with this and the warranty is up, so knock on wood, we hope it's behind us. And although really do love the tv, I can't say I'd recommend taking the risk. We also know 3 friends of friends that had the same issue, so it is very real.

It's Not Worth the Savings; Get the Sony

This TV was great for one year. Last week, one month after the warranty ran out, it started to turn itself off for a few seconds, randomly, in the middle of a TV show or while playing a DVD. The screen goes black, but the audio stays on through our soundbar (which we had to purchase because the sound from the TV itself is practically unintelligible.) Samsung, apparently, is known for its terrible customer service and was true to its reputation, having no interest in a TV which is out of warranty. After doing some research online, we found hundreds (maybe thousands, literally) of complaints about this (and other) Samsung models, all of which have this exact problem that kicks in after a year or so. The consensus seems to be that the capacitors Samsung uses are known to go bad, but Samsung does not admit a problem. Our blackouts have been going on for a week or so, but from everything I've read, they will become longer and more frequent, until finally the TV won't go on at all. Some people have fixed their TVs with capacitors bought for a few dollars from Radio Shack, but this requires opening up the back and having soldering skills, not something I'm about to attempt. There's even a YouTube video on how to do it. Of further interest: there is a law firm that is currently investigating filing a class action lawsuit against Samsung, based on consumer complaints, and one can sign up on line. All this information is available by Googling "Samsung blackout problems". I certainly wish I'd known this before spending close to $1000 on this TV in December 2008, and I based my purchase on the hundreds of great reviews I found on Amazon.

Exceeded Our Expectations

A great TV for a really reasonable price. We couldn't be happier with the picture quality, ease of use, and simple set-up. This is a bedroom TV that sits perpendicular to a large, 3-paned glass slide and opposite two very large windows and yet the picture has no glare in full Florida sun. Our only complaint is that the TV's speakers produce very poor sound quality. We remedied that problem by hooking the TV to a small Onkyo receiver with Bose speakers and the sound is now terrific. We waited 7 months to write a review to see what problems might develop and there have been absolutely none. A great set for the money with an outstanding picture.
