Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great display but frustrating experience Comment: I had done a lot of searching and for this price range this is the best looking display I have found. Some other displays that I looked at handle motion and de-interlacing better than the Samsung, but to me the difference was not enough to justify the higher prices. The sound however is really horrible. Like others, I saw this in other reviews and thought how bad can it be? It's really bad. You don't have to be an audiophile to notice the lack of bass and hollow feeling coming from the speakers. Dealing with CEVA for delivery had to be the most difficult part of my purchase. They never contacted me to arrange for delivery and I came home one day to find a notice on my door that they had attempted delivery and to call them. They would not deliver on the weekends and I had to arrange for a friend to meet them because I could not get home from work within their delivery hours. After enjoying my new TV for three days the thing just died. The status lights came on but no picture. After about 10 minutes of troubleshooting I called Samsung support. They seemed to know right away what the problem was and that it would require a service call. I had to call another company to arrange for service but the only appointment I could make was weeks away. At this point I had had enough and called amazon and told them I was returning it. On Sunday morning I decided I was not going to be denied another Sunday of football in HD so I drove to Best Buy, got them to match Circuit City's price which was about $130 more than amazon, put it in my car, drove home and set it up. The entire process took less than an hour. I then had to call CEVA and arrange for pick up of the dead TV; the earliest they could come was two weeks later on a Saturday and they could only tell me some time between 10am and 5pm. The Friday before they called to say they could not come on the weekend. I now have to take a day off from work to stay home and wait for them to come pick this up. I have purchased Samsung TVs and monitors before and have always had good luck with them so I was surprised by the dud that I got. But I did end up purchasing the same model and I am very happy with it. I would never again order something from amazon that requires delivery from CEVA. If you don't have a job and can stay home all day to wait for delivery you can save some money, but for me the ability to deal with a brick and mortar store in the evenings or weekends is worth the extra money that I paid. Customer Rating: Summary: Samsung LCD HD TV Comment: Everything was as advertised. The picture is better than I had hoped. HDMI cable gives a crystal clear picture. Amazon rep unpacked and set up the TV and hooked everything up and made sure it worked before he left. Dedlivery was fast. No complaints Customer Rating: Summary: Great TV Comment: This is the first HDTV I've owned. I've had it for about a month now, and I'm still blown away by it. Only downside is I find myself watching TV just to be blown away by the amazing picture. USB thing is pretty cool, too. Customer Rating: Summary: A 10 as far as I am concerned Comment: Best picture I have ever seen. I cannot express the excitement and joy I am feeling. Wow! I highly recommend purchasing. Also the price was outstanding for what you get. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Tv Comment: Works great. Speaker are a bit poor but I run it thru a Yamaha AV via Hdmi so dont really care. Picture is great on my old Dvd player via S video. Direct TV HD connected as well via hdmi. Logitech remote takes care of any issues with the supplied one so I havent noticed any startup time issues. Over the air digital signal pickup was very good. More Reviews
