Samsung LN40A650 Reviews Buy LN40A650

I’ve wanted to wait a few weeks to review(Don’t want to jinx anything!)
Basically, want to focus on 2 things, the TV itself, and the delivery.
First, the TV:
Buy LN40A650 It’s great, simple as that. The picture is everything an HDTV should deliver. I am hooked up via Directv HD receiver and a regular DVD player for now. I actually bought a Samsung 1400 at the same time, but it’s hooked up to my Runco 60″ plasma in the family room. The picture is fantastic and I have no doubt that with Blu Ray, it’ll knock my socks off.
Although I think the majority of reviews have been very good, there seem to be a few complaints scattered about. I think with virtually any TV, there probably is the occasional one that might be a bad one, but so far, it’s great, none of the issues with firmware, blurring, etc. If you want technical- there are plenty of sights for that.
What I would highly recommend, is checking it out at somewhere like Bestbuy. The set that was my other choice was the Sony XBR. Pictures were very close, I’d be happy with either. The decider was $500+ less for the Samsung. One other thing- the Sony is much heavier. In my younger days, I kind of assumed that heavier=better. Whether it’s true or not, I definitey appreciate the greater ease manipulating the TV now being lighter

Buy LN40A650 Now, the DELIVERY:
There are a few rather worrisome stories in the reviews, but mine was nothing less than fantastic! First, It was scheduled for “estimated” delivery June 9th. There was no rush for me so even a little late would have been fine. Well, I got a call May 30th to see if they could deliver it later that day. As much as I’d have liked to have had it, I couldn’t be home, so I asked to reschedule. The man was very nice, said no problem and set it up for the following Tuesday, between 1 and 4. I called that day to dispatch and they confirm.
The delivery man was on time, unloaded the TV and brought it in. I helped get it out of the box which was a piece of cake(remember the relative lack of weight). He then helped me move my old TV, about a 150# Sony tube set and then set the new TV up. I connected the HDMI cable in about 20 seconds. Turned it on and I was good to go. He waited to make sure it was working, did the paperwork and that was it! He asked if I wanted him to take out the box, but I figured I’d keep it for a while, just to be sure.

By the way, the stand is already connected in the box. I was planning on hanging it on the wall eventually, but it frankly looks fine the way it is with the stand.

The remote is a little different then I’m used to, but the backlight function is kind of cool

Anyway, I’m now a couple weeks in and still happy. I could have spent more at Bestbuy, etc. but the delivery would not have been any better, except they’d have charged. Look, I’m sure, like me, a lot of people are a little anxious about buying something like this online. Don’t be. Wait for what you like, wait for a good deal, free shipping, etc. and don’t let the occasional story make you go out and spend more money.

I’m waiting for the newer Blu rays to come out to get a new one to pair with it.

Hope this soothes some worry people might have; I don’t write a lot of reviews, but this one needed to be done

Buy LN40A650. Happy TV!
