Summary: Great HDTV, average for non-HD content, white glove service overrated
Comment: After 3 weeks of gruelling research, I shortlisted Samsung LN52A650, Panasonic Th-50PZ800U and the Sony XBR series. After watching them all side by side, I dropped Sony off the list as it is simply not worth the price & it wasn't as bright as the other two. And since I had owned a Panasonic EDTV for last 4 years, I was ready to test waters with an LCD TV. After watching the picture quality of the Samsung 6 series, I was blown away. I can confirm to you that this unit offers the best picture quality in LCD, bar none. Also, it comes really close to the Pioneer Kuro in black levels.
A few basics. I have used all HDMI 1.3 connections. I have an Onkyo TX-SR705 A/V receiver which is great.
HD Content from DirecTV with DVR - Watching HD content from DirecTV is pure pleasure to eyes. Eventhough I am sitting just 7-8 feet from this huge TV, I see breathtaking picture quality that I did not notice in any other HDTVs.
Blu-Ray on PS3 - I downloaded a few HD trailers from Sonystoreonline using my PS3 and also watched Spider-Man3 on Blu-Ray. This was simply spectacular.
Non-HD content - I am quite disappointed with the quality of picture with non-HD content on this TV. My old Panasonic plasma did a much better job at this. My only hope is that most channels would make the switch to HD in the coming years.
120 Hz experience - May be its me but I couldn't see a visible difference between keeping this feature on versus off.
6 series versus 7 series - The extra pre-loaded content and a better integrated speaker weren't worth $400 premium for the 7 series. I would suggest you stick to the 6 series. But watch out the amazon price fluctuations, you shouldn't be paying more than $2270 for the 6 series.
White Glove Delivery - The CEVA shipping took about 7 business days and I had to be proactively calling them to schedule the delivery and track shipments. A lone fellow showed up at my doorstep struggling to lift the TV up my front porch. I had to help him bring the TV inside. Onbce he got in, after a little effort in helping me place the TV on the stand, I could see his desperation to leave. Hence, I had to sign him off and call a pal in to help me with the rest. I am satisfied with this service but not super-excited like some others.

Summary: The lcd tv I have been waiting for...
Comment: I did quite a bit of research before ordering this tv. I was strongly considering a Panasonic 50" that was similar in price. What I liked about this tv was the contrast and 120 hz refresh. I got the tv and I ordered the Peerless tilt mount with it. I set the mount on maximum angle, because I was mounting the tv three feet off the ground and I didn't want to strain my head watching it. I was installing the TV in a new home which I had a built in made above the fire place for. The mount kit was easy to install and the tv just hangs on the mount. My tiny wife helped me connect the wires while I lifted it and hung it. I would recommend two men to install. I tuned the tv on and connected it to over the air rabbit ears. I pulled in several HD channels. You can tell which programs were recorded in 1080P because WOW the picture is incredible. The black levels are awesome. The viewing angle is easily 180 degrees. The detail is very crisp and the motion is smoothe. I have been shopping lcd tv's for years and this is the first one that I have seen beat the quality of a picture tube for clarity, color and brightness. Everyone is raving about Samsung being the leader in flat panel tv's for a reason - they are. Sorry Sony, you had your glory days with Trintron. The touch of red struck me as weird, but it looks nice. My wife likes the appearance too. The built in speakers sound great. There are TONS of input connections. My only complaint is that I have to go purchase a Blue Ray DVD and I will probably need to upgrade to HD sattellite. Once you see 1080P on this TV you will want nothing less. That being said it does a good job of scaling up standard definition, way better than my friends Sony CRT projection TV that is also 1080P. There are so many positive reviews on this tv that I don't know why you would not purchase it. One caution about the price. It was as low as $2180 at one point, but I paid $2229. Today it was over $2400 which is more than Best Buy runs it on sale. Just watch the price because it bounces like a superball.

Summary: The best 52" LCD around ... go ahead and get it!
Comment: I'll admit this was a little bit of an impulse buy. I work in a service industry where I'm in many different people's homes and businesses on a daily basis. I had a 30" HDTV (CRT type) that I bought a few years ago as a necessity when my old 27" SDTV died on me. It looked good but I really liked the flat-panel look, especially with all the wires hidden/fished in the walls, which I'd seen in many homes. The space you'll save without an entertainment center if you wall mount is incredible.
I'm really into movies and sports, and I liked what everyone here was saying about the Samsung series 6, so I went over to my favorite big box electronics store to compare and see them in person. I really was set on the 46", but I'll tell you the 52" is the way to go if you can swing it. It looks so much better at a distance of 12' or greater over the 46", and I love it.
The picture is number one as far as I can tell, compared to anything I've seen in the stores. So I pulled the trigger, at least I thought so, Amazon approved me for exactly $100 less than the TV cost to get the 0%/36 mo financing offer on their card. They "said" they would ask the bank for $100 more on the limit, but I never heard anything, and you can't put part on the Amazon card and part on a debit card or the like, so I cheated (like someone else here mentioned) and bought myself a gift certificate to make up the balance. And away we went.
CEVA/Eagle Logistics showed up about 2 days before the original delivery date, so I was pumped. The fellows set it up (initially) on the stand and plugged in my HDMI DVD player to make sure it worked, and were very courteous.
I then wall mounted the unit, along with fishing all my HDMI cables in the wall, along with a recessed AC plate installed behind the TV. (I do low-voltage wiring for a living). It simply looks amazing. I bought an audio pier for my components below, and it works great, very high-tech looking.
The TV is simply stunning. And you can't go wrong. Just do it. Do yourself a favor and schedule your upgrade to HD with your satellite or cable provider as soon as you order, so there won't be a lapse in SD to HD programming. SD looks OK, but a 52" makes it look worse than say a 30" LCD. I went to a Dish Network VIP 722 Dual Tuner HD DVR. You'll probably also want an Upconverting DVD player with HDMI or a BluRay player if you watch a lot of movies.
Make sure to check in for price drops over the first 30 days, Amazon gave me a $95 refund during this period to make it over $700 cheaper than BestBuy.

Summary: Best TV. Period
Comment: Shop around all you like, but to this date this TV is your best choice for <$3000 big screen HD experience. A word of warning: 120Hz is great, but remember that movies are filmed at 25 frames per second, therefore a 120fps will look a little "too" real modifying the way the movie was intended to look in the first place, if you have seen a movie in PAL format (30fps) you will get the idea. Also there will be a blur every time the movie pans around. In Video games however, is the best quality yet! With that said... 1080p in 60hz (or maybe 120hz set to low)it looks amazing, the overall product is great. And you should stop here and go buy it.
