+ The slim design is fantastic, it hangs on the wall and almost looks like wall art. The picture quality (especially if you have sky HD) is superb. Easy to follow on screen menu an very simple set up. The remote control lights up when you touch it when the night draws in.
- The sound isn't the best, but you wouldn't expect the a top of the range sound system to fit in the ultra slim size, you could always add a home cinema system. The remote control is very temperamental. you have to keep fiddling with the batteries.

Excellent picture - excellent TV both HD and SD
Great looking TV
-
Make sure you change from factory settings
Sound could be better but will invest in Home Cinema system

+ Fantastic picture quality, definately the way forward after LCD's.
- Samsung sound has never been the best or mediocre and this product follows the same line. It's shame there was no audio out to connect the TV to my old HiFi which doesn't have and optical input.

+ Picture clarity is excellent have never seen better, images move across the screen with extreme sharpness almost as if you are there within the scene. The colours are vibrant at the same time black is very black and white is true white.
- Cannot find any bad points yet, the TV is very new to us which is why ease of use has not been fully assessed - we still have a lot to learn about the features and how to use them !

+ The picture, the picture, the picture - it is truly stunning. I already have a Bravia 2 Sony Tv and this one blows the socks off it. SD TV is breathtaking, DVDs upscale amazingly, BRs are gorgeous. Unbelievably thin and light, very simple to use interface. Remote control backlit when it gets dark. Swivels on stand.
- Small amount of light bleed when no picture - who cares? Ugly remote control.

+ Really Top quality TV, even normal TV looks great through up scalng, Blueray looks superb. I dont use the Sound as I have home speakers so no comment, sounds ok when you switch it on. The internet connection is fun but slow so never played with it after the first day.
- The remote control stopped working buy may be batteries (only 2 weeks old so dont think so), the remote is RF has to be paired so not the same as point and shoot. took too long to pair.

The picture quality is very very good on Virgin H D programs etc, only tested up to 1080i .
The inputs are very well covered which makes it very versatile and will cover most needs.
The sound is good.
I think most setting up options have been covered.
Its hard to find any problems at all , every thing works very well.
The manual is very comprehensive .
The scart socket replacement adapter is a good idea .
-
Setting up initially is no problem but some of the fine tuning can be a bit complex as there is a lot of options .
The source button for changing inputs could be a bit larger .
purchased 19 Aug 2009
+ Screen is very thin and looks good (for a black rectangle). It has very good connectivity.
- The remote could be more ergonomic. The tiny remote is not much use as I use sky+ HD.

Picture fantastic even up close and to the side nothing is lost.
Frame is sleek and really thin looks fabulous
- Sound could be slightly better.
purchased 15 Aug 2009
+ Excellent picture
- Sound is quite tinny I had anticipated a black tv stand and it turned up with a silver one.
purchased 28 Aug 2009
+ Stunning design
-
Backlight shadows at top and bottom of the screen mainly on light backgrounds
Can be seen clearly on live sports [football / cricket]
Needs to be seen to.
For a top of the range tv and what it cost it should be faultless.

superb picture on hi-def signals
great looking tv
very thin and does not dominate the room like my old plasma
-
switching between inputs is a bit slower than i'm used to.
non-hdmi signals are poor ( sky+ box through the scart adapter )
purchased 15 Sep 2009
