Reviews of the Samsung HL-T5687S

CNET Review
The Good: Excellent primary color accuracy; produces a deep overall shade of black; no rainbow effect compared to other DLPs; comprehensive connectivity with 3 HDMI and one PC input; numerous picture controls; compact, stylish cabinet.
The Bad: Hot spot visible in dark scenes; no user-menu color temperature controls; lacks 2:3 pulldown processing.
The Bottom Line: Although we couldn't quite ignore its uneven screen uniformity, the Samsung HL-T5687S still makes a compelling alternative to flat-screen wallet-busters at this size.
