Reviews of the Samsung LN46A750
-
CNET Review
The Good: Superb black-level performance with solid shadow detail; highly accurate color; improved 120Hz dejudder processing; unbridled feature set including network streaming, built-in interactive content and news, stocks and weather feeds; broad selection of picture setup options.
The Bad: Expensive; clear plastic layer on frame conducts distracting light; red color isn't for everyone; shiny screen reflects ambient room lighting; some artifacts when dejudder modes are engaged; most interactive content seems tacked-on; streaming doesn't support third-party DLNA servers; awkward clickwheel remote.
The Bottom Line: The excellent picture quality and unique interactive features of the Samsung LN46A750 flat-panel LCD TV aren't quite worth the higher price tag.
