The Samsung 52" LN52B550 LCD does not disappoint! I have had this tv for about 2-3 weeks now, and it looks fantastic especially when you tweak the picture settings. This is only the 60hz model from Samsung, but the 120hz model is a bit more pricey for something that I couldn't discern any real difference in PQ. I watch a lot of sports, and I don't see any motion blur so I just didn't see the point in spending the money on a 120hz model. This tv does not have an ethernet jack to connect to the web, but I wasn't personally looking for that feature. If this is important to you, then you will want to look elsewhere. As far as delivering a great and colorful HD picture, whether from my FiOS cable or the Blu Ray movie I popped in, this tv does a fantastic job!
Note that I found some good settings for the picture in a thread on AVS forum to really bring out the best of this tv. At this price and the size, I would highly recommend this one. Also, not sure why the other reviewer is claiming this tv will not accept a lower resolution signal (480i, etc.)...I have had no problems with the tv accepting standard def channels. Somebody may need to check the settings on their tv, but I assure you mine displays signals that come in with lower resolution.
This television looks good with bluray but not for local television. Not compatible with other resolution like 480i,720p etc...try plasma LG 42"compatible with everything.
