Digital camera reviews of Samsung HL61A750 61-Inch 1080p LED Powered DLP HDTV
Digital camera Review: Awesome TV
Summary: 5 Stars
Just got this TV a week ago and it is amazing. Like some other reviewers here, I had been hesitant to go with a DLP, but the price/size ratio and the LED light source eventually sold me. I've been agonizing over this decision for a few months now and finally pulled the trigger, and I'm glad I did.
The only thing that should really be of any concern to anyone is the vertical viewing angle but if you place the TV at the proper eye level, there's no issue. I'm a tall guy and my old TV stand is a little too short, so when I'm standing up and watching the screen from a close distance (playing guitar on Rock Band or something like that) the picture does tend to get a little bit washed out. That's entirely my fault for not having a TV stand of the proper height, though, and I'll fix that soon (I didn't like what I read about the Samsung stand for this model so I decided to look for a different one locally, just haven't gotten around to it yet).
Overall, this is an outstanding TV, and I'm glad I finally worked up enough courage to take the plunge. My only minor regret (very, very minor) is that I didn't go with the 67-inch version. It probably would have been too much TV for my living room, though.
Oh yeah, almost forgot: CEVA was excellent on the delivery. They called a few days ahead of time and set up the appointment window, and the guy arrived right in the middle of the window. He was quick but thorough, treated the box gently, and I was enjoying my TV within 5 minutes after he left. It was my first experience with CEVA, and I would use them again.
Digital camera Review: I made the correct choice
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the HL61A750 DLP 2 weeks ago. I was very concerned about this choice because it seems that the DLP technology is being dumped and I didn't want to buy a discontinued product.
Now I think that anyone that buys the LCD is spending more than they need to. This TV is outstanding.
Delivery was fast and easy. I am very, very happy with my choice.
Digital camera Review: Great HD TV
Summary: 5 Stars
Great TV out of the Box. Doesn't seem to want to find and the HDMI connect devices only the HD DVD player, but not a big problem as long as you know what you connected to what.Digital camera Review: Samsung has a winner
Summary: 5 Stars
I finished my basement and wanted to put a big screen TV down there. On my upper level I have a JVC 52" LCOS and a 42" Panasonic plasma in my bedroom. I wanted a 61" for the basement and saw the price of Plasma and about choked. I have never been a fan of DLP due to the color wheel, screen door effect etc. The JVC LCOS is better than traditional DLP, but I dislike the wait for the screen to come on and the fan noise, but I noticed an AD for Samsung saying their 7th gen DLP used LED for light and would last the life of the TV. I dug deeper into their technology and read review after review, this TV is fabulous. Samsung's 7th gen is the only way to go if you want excellent huge screens for about half the price of plasma. You can tell if it's 7th gen by the model, HL61A750, the third number is a 7, meaning 7the gen. Samsung also makes a 67" HL67A750, at this time, these are the only two 7th gen which use LED.
I ordered from Amazon.com and got it delivered for $1,639.99 It arrived in perfect shape. This unit is so light, my wife helped me carry it downstairs. I plugged it in and everything worked perfectly. The picture is fantastic! I have nothing to base reliability on, so I recommend a squareTrade warranty to cover yourself with this new technology. A 3yr warranty with a 30% discount coupon runs only $129.00 much less than one service call. Caution, I cannot get my kids away from the great picture, so I am stuck watching Kim Possible :)
Digital camera Review: Couldn't be Happier
Summary: 5 Stars
Ordered on a Friday-Delivered to my home Wednesday. Have absolutely no complaints. Picture is fabulous without making adjustments but I'll probably tweek soon. Had for a month now and has performed flawlessly. I'm not a techie so I'll leave all that stuff to others but I did my research before I bought and am very satisfied. To get this size screen for the price can't be beat. Highly recommend.
