Samsung LN40B550 LCD TV – Customer Reviews
First of all, this LCD TV is by far the best in its price range. The 70k:1 ratio on this monster is beautiful!!!. It conveniently has 4 HDMI ports, which is plenty of plug-ins for your video game consoles, BlueRay players, DVD players what ever you plug for HDMI. The Game mode does wonders for your gaming experience. It makes your games have less of a motion blur. If you are an online gamer or a casual, Playstation 3 or Xbox360 gamer this one is for you. Both consoles look amazing.
The buttons on the remote are very straight forward and easy to use, menus are easy to navagate. there are plenty of features that are in the menus that i dont know what they do.
It also has an energy saver that you can set to different setting for your room lighting.
I can go on and on about this television. I would recommend this to any one who likes to play games, watch movies or has HD satellite channels.
I would buy another one just like it if i could.
P.S. I have looked at many reviews for this T.V. and i can see my TOC just fine. I think it has to do with the way the light reflect off of the T.V\’s black finish.![]()
