Samsung LN52B550
$1,999.00
Released March, 2009
The Pros:Plays fast-moving video fairly sharply, competes well with 120Hz models. Large viewing area lets you relax your eyes and absorb all the details of the picture. Sharpness is excellent, every detail is clearly defined.
The Cons:Takes some tweaking to get the colors to reach their potential. Out of the box settings are so bright they might bother some users. Contrast drops off around the edges of the picture.
