Reviews of the Samsung HL61A750
-
CNET Review
The Good: Excellent screen size-to-price ratio compared to big-screen flat-panels; solid black-level performance; very accurate color, with minor tweaking; plenty of connectivity options.
The Bad: Somewhat expensive for a rear-projection set; as with all rear-projection sets, off-angle performance is poor.
The Bottom Line: Samsung's HL61A750 61-inch rear-projection HDTV delivers excellent overall picture quality, and, compared to flat-panel options, it's a real bargain.
