Samsung LN40B540
$900.00
Released July, 2009
The Pros:Plenty of inputs, enough for most people's purposes. Adequate sharpness and detail to the picture for an entry-level TV. Setup of the swivel stand is very easy, swivels smoothly.
The Cons:Frequent problems reported with the backlight within the first year of use. Videophiles will find the contrast inadequate - some muddiness in dark areas and tinting of the whites.
