Samsung LN40C550 40-Inch 1080p 60 Hz LCD HDTV (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)i actually received this set as from Samsung as a replacement for a 37 inch model that they no longer make. unfortunately, this television has also been plagued with problems. let me preface this by saying as far as picture quality and overall appearance go, this is a fantastic set. however, there are 3 fatal flaws that are causing me to return it.
1) audio clipping issues: regardless of the audio source, the television exhibits audio clipping and dropouts where the sound will temporarily disappear. this causes a very quick, but incredibly annoying, loss in audio. this occurs regardless of input source.
2) auto-dimming issues: the set features special settings to automatically adjust the brightness levels to conserve energy and optimize the the tv for low-light settings. however, even after turning off all of these options, the tv still auto-dims. obviously, this degrades from the experience.
3) poor DLNA codec support: one of the most exciting features for me about this set is that it is compatible with DLNA home media servers. i was hoping to be able to stream my content to this set. however, the television has very poor codec support. it cannot play many common file formats and codecs. even after transcoding the files, the set often fails to play them. in addition, the set doesn't support fast-forward or rewind on streaming media, which makes watching a movie very difficult.
i really wanted to like this set, and was excited to receive it, but unfortunately, i think this will be the last Samsung TV i ever own.

Thanks to its four HDMI inputs and a Full HD 1080p panel resolution, you can use the Samsung LN40C550 to enjoy HD viewing from sources like Blu-ray Disc.But with this Samsung LCD HDTV, you can do even more.A rear ethernet port gives you the ability to connect this LCD to your home network, making it possible to stream music, photos, and video directly to the 40" HDTV.Look to a special Game Mode for sound and picture quality optimized for gaming content.
