I have the 40 inch version of this Smart TV with 3D and am quite pleased. I have not used the feature permitting the computer screen to be seen on the TV but it's there and now that my taxes are in, plan to watch movies. Also taking a Great Courses lesson on Philosophy and will watch it on TV. Had a 22" Samsung TV and it performed so well I stayed with Samsung. Bob C

If you really like technology I would recommend it. The TV itself really can do it all. The problems we were having was using the remote and watching our regular TV channels. The guide to use the TV is in the TV which really made things difficult. The remote does not have the basic numbers and arrows, which really confused us and it is very touchy. I hope this helps you.

Hi ajs,This TV is a fantastic choice for DVD viewing. Setup is really intuitive and the picture is great even if you just use the out-of-the-box settings, though I'd recommend changing them for the best picture.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I am still debating between this model and another. Let me know what you think about the TV. Thanks.

i"ve been planning on getting this one but was just waiting for another coupon. As far as my research goes, there is nothing wrong with this TV. The buzzing sound some people report doesn't seem to be a major issue or at least it's a fixable one. I think what's going on is Amazon screwed up something and enough people complained so they pulled it until they can get to the bottom of the matter. I tried contacting Amazon to ask if there was a chance it might be available before the coupon expires today, and all I got was the same vague "Item under review" reply. The way I see it, they should extend the coupon for this one till the TV is available again since it's because of their screw-up that we can't buy it. i"ve been planning on getting this one but was just waiting for another coupon.

This TV is absolutly a smart TV. I love it. It has a dual core processor, comes with a smart touch remote which takes some getting used to but has some cool functions, built in WiFi, and even wireless keyboard capabilities. So this should be all the smart TV you need for now. Hope that helped.

To be honest with you, I haven't use this TV for gaming. But I will eventually! It should be good since the quality of watching TV is very nice. I'm curious now since you've ask me!

I am looking to buy this tv as well. Bestbuy has it for the same price. + tax of course. i hear alot about a buzz. that is why i am thinking best buy might be the way to go just in case of a return.

Has anyone played games on it?I just bit the bullet and bought the Samsung LN40A550 based on reviews. (Got ps3 for blue ray discs and I watch A LOT of movies.) I also like to play FPS and other games with a lot of movement and action. Has anyone noticed any sort of ghosting or blurring when they play games on it? Bad thing to wonder about AFTER I buy the tv, but I'm sure it'll still be worth it when I see my movies in a new-1080p-light.

I own it and it is mostly fine. After a move a few years ago, a yellow line runs down the middle that is only really noticeable on blue backgrounds. It runs hot and is an energy hog (200w) compared to current LCD tvs. Also the contrast and resolution is not as sharp as current tvs even at 720p. The remote only works if you point it at the lower right corner of the TV, where the sensor is. 40" tvs are $300 new (with better specs), so I hope you get a good deal.

I am sorry to say that these questions are over my head. I don't know what any of those things mean. But my assumption is that since all of those things matter to you, this tv is likely not for you. Like I mentioned in my review, the Netflix did not work very well. So I expect that the other smart features are also unimpressive. That doesn't bother me, since I use my bluray player for that. Also, the picture in motion is not the greatest, so that might be an issue for you too. For my basic requirements, I am satisfied with this. I know that this is not the best tv, but the price was good & I like it.

Sheila: At $278, that wasn't an issue for me. At that price, it's almost a throw away. I'd ask Google. BTW, stay away from extended warrenties. They are not worth the price. If a TV has something wrong with it, you'll know in short order.

I got my TV on Monday. If it was used I can't tell. It's in excellent condition! No complaints whatsoever. I'll be posting a review on the TV in the next couple of days. Suffice it to say, all the rave reviews live up to the breathtaking performance of this TV.

I have yet to buy one and think I have a couple days left to do so. I did buy one on the last TV I had and never had to use it, so it was money thrown down the drain in my opinion. That particular Television (Sony) is over 6 years old and still works like a champ. Its really up to the buyer. It is a nice thing to have in case something does happen, but in my opinion if this HDTV doesnt last me at least 3 years without any issues I wont be buying any more Samsung models. Good luck with your decision and I think you are going to like the LN32A450.

To all the people bad mouthing this 47" toshiba 1080p lcd tv: IT'S YOUR LOSS!I bought this tv for the $1199 & so far-no regret. I had read all the reviews & saw that most of the negatives were from people who had ordered previously through a 3rd party vendor & received a 42" instead of a 47". Also some complained about a 'green shift or push'--I have not seen it. Maybe this sale batch of tv's were improved. There are so many ways to adjust the color, but it looked good right out of the box so I only made minor adjustments. Glad I got it & the 52" Toshiba when they were on sale-'cause of the savings & the good quality.
