Reviews Samsung LN55B650 55-Inch HDTV


I had a hard time deciding between this model and the Panosonic G10 50" plasma (G10 was less $ but picture quality was lower in my opinion but not by much. If cost is a primary driver then I would go with the G10 and save the dollars. My reasoning rulled out LEDs that are to bleading edge from a cost standpoint, 240 hz was the same and I could see no differnece in quality, and from what I could see neither had a better picture at all but just cost more. I did not need the thin panel an LCD provides I know in the near future they will be the standard, but too much price difference today. This Samsung has the best picture of any TV in the store bottom line, looking at them all side by side this model always had the best picture by a wide margin. That includes the LED, 240 hz models and even ones that cost 2x as much or more.

I did consider the 52" version LN52B630 for around $1289 around Christmas, but Amazon was out stock and I did want to take advantage of the special financing. When I compared the specification between the LN55B650 and LN52B630, most fo features were similar except for the speakers and media peripherals. I would recommend that you take sometime and go to a local retailer to see the picture quality. I did learn that what you see is not always what you get since picture settings on models can vary and the lighting in your home can impact the overall picture quality you will experience.
