Samsung LN40B650 Review - PCWorld

The Samsung LN40B650 produces great-looking on-screen images, and its Internet and home-networking capabilities will keep you entertained when there's nothing good on TV. You can find cheaper 40-inch HDTVs, but the image quality and the extras make the...

Very good picture quality

Poorly implemented picture-in-picture

The Samsung LN40B650 is an excellent all-around HDTV, thanks to its very good picture quality, Internet extras, and user-friendliness.

Samsung LNB650 review: Samsung LNB650

Samsung LNB650

Reproduces relatively deep black levels; accurate color; very good dejudder processing; extensive feature set with Yahoo widgets, network streaming, and built-in content; solid connectivity with four HDMI inputs and one PC input; energy efficient.

Somewhat expensive; dark areas tinged bluer; benefits of 120Hz difficult to discern; shiny screen can cause reflections in bright rooms; no S-Video inputs; overt red coloration and funky styling not for everyone.

While not up to the picture quality of Samsung's topflight models, the feature-rich, uniquely styled LNB650 series still outperforms most LCDs on the market.

Review: Samsung LN40B650 HDTV

Thanks to its very good picture quality, Internet and home-network entertainment features, and general user-friendliness, the Samsung LN40B650 ranks as one of the best HDTV we've tested this year.

The digital artifacts around fast-moving objects surprised us, in part because this model did quite well on our motion benchmark tests, which stress a television’s ability to handle moving images far more than anything you're likely to see in a movie....

Great tv

I spent a lot of time doing research online and even went to the stores to look. Samsung's are definitely the best tv's out there. I mainly use this for my xbox 360 and am very satisfied. When hooking up my laptop (which is nothing special) to the tv...

crystal clear picture, nice blacks (for a lcd), no problems of ghosting, free shipping (and received tv in 3 days), no dead pixels

plays an annoying sound when you turn the tv on and off. speakers are nothing special

Beautiful TV for fantastic price

Glossy screen is a trade off: It shows contrast really well and images are very vivid, but if you have a well lit room, you can see reflections in blacks. *I'm a psycho for quality and had a 24" SAMSUNG before this one, knowing that it was the right...

Perfect screen- No dead pixels ; Aspect ratio is perfect for TV and films: Full screen HD ; Comes with a great stand and remote ; Tons of useless features: Twitter, Yahoo! Weather, Art Gallery mode build in

Menus are convoluted: Changing source takes a while ; widgets" are pretty useless and slow responding ; DLNA is pointless and neutered ; No LED back-lighting (but you shouldn't care anyway, see below*) ; 120 Hz is pretty much pointless until hardware...
