    User Ratings and Reviews

    5 Stars Samsung LNT4665f
    Well I’ve had this flat panel for about two weeks so far and all I can say is bam, just love it. I bought this tv because of all the posituve feedback from Amazon reviewers, Fry’s employee feedback, and internet sources. I have even viewed the Samsung LNT4671 side by side with the Samsung LNT4665 for differences in performance while viewing a Blu ray signal of Pirates. Not much differances in my opinion. My last word is get it now.

    5 Stars If glare is not a problem, this TV is for YOU.
    Purchased this TV on January 13th, and it was delivered on January 18. The delivery service was great! They called me the day it arrived in town, and delivered on the date I requested, two days later. So, I could have gotten it on the 16th! The delivery person un-boxed it, and didn’t leave until he saw that everything was working fine. Some people here complain about the delivery service……I experienced just the opposite.

    The TV is GREAT. 1499 settings from the AVS forum are definitely the place to start when setting up. You might need to adjust some, as I think some skin tones are a little red.

    If you have a light controlled room (i.e. you can keep the light out), this is the TV for you. If you have a lot of light, go with th 4661. Although, if you mount it on the wall, and angle the TV towards the floor a few degrees, you can minimize the glare. In bright scenes, you don’t see it at all. In dark screens, it is minimal.

    Great TV. Glad I bought it from Amazon, cause I saved a LOT of money on shipping and sales tax. Also, the price dropped $150 after a bought it, and Amazon promptly refunded the difference.

    5 Stars Not a trace of buyer’s remorse
    I’ve owned the 4665 model for four months and absolutely love this TV. I spent several months investigating which flat panel technology and vendor to go with and ultimately determined LCD and Samsung were my choices.

    Must admit I was hesitent to order such an expensive product on-line, but for anyone on the fence let me assure you the process could not have gone any better. Ordered placed on a Thursday, had the TV in my home the following Monday evening. Free shipping…

    Prior to purchase I reviewed the forum posintgs for the 4665 model on avsforums, where a user recommended set of calibration settings is offered. I’ve used these exclusively.

    Amazon dropped the price of the TV a week after I purchased, and by simply contacting their customer support via email Amazon quickly, and without hassle, credited my CC for the difference.

    I received a brand new model with the latest firmware (as of Sept. 2007). The avsforums tell you how to determine a unit’s assembly date btw. Mine was a P9 (8th and 9th digit of serial number) so the firmware shipped on my model was up to date and contained fixes for the HDMI dropout issues that affected pre-P6 models. I use all three HDMI inputs (cable, upscale DVD player and xbox360 Elite) and have never experienced a dropout or flash.

    Watching HD channels (using the avs recommended calibration settings) is spectacular. I also have a xbox360 elite (HDMI) and the picture is incredible. Great brightness and color, good black levels.

    Guests who visit (some of which own HD TVs of their own) unanimously remark on the TV’s breathtaking clarity; especially during football games.

    The TV sits on a backwards tilt/angle of about 5 degrees, so factor this into your placement decision if you intend on placing it upon a table/stand.

    I have a large window in the TV viewing room with vertical blinds, and have no trouble with glare. Nor do I have any issues with the horizontal viewing angle. TV remote is stylish as well as functional. Key remote buttons such as picture size and TV mode (standard, dynamic and movie) are color coded for quick recognition.

    I thought a 40″ would suffice, “save myself some money by conceding to the smaller model, right?” Then prior to purchase I read reviews from readers who recently purchased flat panel TVs. The #1 complaint was, “We wished we got a bigger model.”

    Embracing that advice, I opted to go for the 46″ 4665 model.

    And now, every time I sit down on the sofa, beverage of choice in hand, TV remote in the other, I mentally pat myself on the back for the best electronic investment I’ve ever made.

    5 Stars No Regrets on this Purchase
    This is a totally awesome TV. I read an extensive volume of positive reviews and visited many stores before purchasing. The only thing that was not accurate in the positive reviews that I read was where people indiciated that the glossy screen did not cause reflections….it does in my room (may windows etc.). Even with that issue, I don’t regret the glossy screen model as it makes the picture even crisper (in my opinion). The clarity you get on HD shows is unreal. In case you haven’t educated yourself as to the needs for upgraded DVD players etc. to maximize your TV picture…you should research that simultaneously to know your total $$ to be invested.

    4 Stars Well..
    I hope you guys are all right. I’ve searched high and low for reviews and didn’t see too many negative at all. Price is right with Amazon vs BB and CC. Save $400 with no tax or shipping! I can’t wait!
