5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Product, 22 Jun 2008
By Rf Albesa "Rough Rider" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A real quality LCD tv with a wonderfully understated design. There are no physical buttons on the bezel. Instead Power, volume, channel control are handled by a touch interface (it's the future) on the bottom right hand corner. The black levels on the tv are slightly better than the new Sony W4000 series tv's, which makes it one of the best on LCD tvs in comparison to other brands. It also handles motion a lot better than any previous Samsung tvs, which handicap the Sony W4000 series since they don't have a 100Hz system in place. Standard definition channels look very good on this tv, but feed this tv with a high definition source e.g. Blu-ray/ Sky HD/ Freesat HD then it turns into a different beast. Exceptional picture quality in terms of sharpness, colour and motion. The only thing I could fault this tv on is the sound quality. It does have very good sound depth but as with any tv with an intergrated speaker system it lacks punch for movie or sport watching. But, hey, if you're going to buy this tv then you might as well invest in a quality speaker system. I got this with the HT-Z310 cinema system and they complement each other handsomely.

Overall in terms of picture/ sound quality, styling and price this is one tv you should seriously consider.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent bit of kit!, 11 May 2008
By Neil Griffiths "griffjnr" (Hampshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this TV to replace my Sony Bravia KDL-V32A12. What an amazing TV. The 4 HDMI slots are great as is the WISELINK feature. The picture is simply stunning through a HD input and is excellent via the built in DTV Tuner or normal SKY TV input. Game play is amazing as is watching Blue Ray Discs. All in all I am very pleased with it and would definitely recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Picture And Value For Money., 2 Aug 2008
By Mr. H. C. Orr "Alphavillain" (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
[Review of Model no. LE40A656A1FXXU.]

Having owned an excellent Samsung 32" (LE32N73BDX) for the past year or so, I decided to upgrade my old tube TV to this 1080p model. So far I have very positive first impressions of my new machine. Right out the box, the elegant ebony and red-tinted design hits you: the cliché about hi-def TVs adding style to any living room has never been more true than here. Despite being so large, the narrow black picture frame surround makes the TV unobtrusive in even a small room.

Getting down to brass tacks, the picture quality is superb. For under £900 you obviously get Full 100Hz HD, which sets the image apart even from my 720p Samsung. Furthermore, a host of intelligent image options, such as Just Scan, add immeasurably to the sumptuous hi-def experience. PlayStation 3 games such as "Ninja Gaiden Sigma" and "Gran Turismo 5 Prologue" look even more polished than expected with the smoother frame rate that 100Hz gives. I can't be stress enough vastly how the 100Hz improves Standard Definition TV signals over my old tube TV too, especially on the crystal-clear inbuilt Freeview capability. In other words, this is not only a TV for video games or Blu-ray freaks: it's a great all-rounder even for those without HD television signals.

On the down side as regards image, the excellent Game Mode setting is spoiled slightly because setting the TV to this mode means you cannot change any of the image or sound settings. Absolutely none. So if you want Game Mode and you also want to raise the brightness by 2 points, you can't. You have to switch Game Mode off and set up the image you want manually. Worst of all, switching on any of the Entertainment Modes switches off the 100Hz Motion Plus setting. It's a minor irritant, but largely negates the handy presets I loved so much on my older Samsung.

Sound invariably suffers because of the compact speakers. Sound lacks the "oomph" of older and chunkier TVs, as well as their newer home cinema-equipped counterparts. The SRS TS XT doesn't really add very much to the package. But if you are so concerned about sound, then use some of the money you have saved from buying this model for a home cinema. The lack of startling sound doesn't detract from the fantastic picture and welter of connection options this TV offers.

For the price tag, the A656 offers a fantastic and flexible 1080p image and a ton of connections (including four HDMI and PC/USB inputs). (Don't let the less than spectacular sound deter you, the image is what really counts of televisions anyhow.) The lovely design and swivel stand (pre-installed for models over 37") add gloss to what is at the time of writing a fantastic home entertainment package.
