Samsung has a superb reputation and this Television does not let the rep down. This is so simple to set up a baby could have done it, in fact I have not had a television that was easier.
All I had to do was plug in all the cabling and switch on, a picture appeared almost straight away.
For being my first HDTV, I am more than happy with my purchase. I was debating for months to get the LN40B630, but the price didn’t come back down to below $800. Searching Amazon, I saw this year’s model for less than last year’s model, so I decided it was time to get one. I’m more than impressed by what this TV can do: already I have hooked my PS3 and DVD player up to it. The visuals are absoulutley outstanding — I feel like I’m actually there. Reading reviews from last year’s model, I saw negative comments about sound quality; this year’s model, in my opinion, exceeds expectations.
I have literally been following the prices of HDTV’s for about a year now, and there is no better time for an upgrade! Samsung just released their new “C” series, and somehow they are remarkably less expensive than their pre-existing models! The majority of the websites are selling this HDTV for $800+, Amazon’s lower-than-low price is less than the rest of the market. I purchased it here on Amazon, and received my HDTV in 5 days (could have been 4 days, but I had school all day). CEVA did the shipping for my HDTV, which I was wary at first because I have only dealt with UPS and Fedex. However, CEVA provided excellent customer service as they did contact me and I verbally specified a delivery time. Packaging was very efficient, and surprisingly light too!
I researched my first purchase of an HDTV extensively over the last 4-6 weeks. After a couple of disappointing experiences related to models and brands other than this one (one TV I ordered never arrived, one came defective and had to be returned), I discovered the Samsung LN40C630, which was recently released by Samsung. It is an amazing TV and it almost made the problems with the other TVs I previously ordered worth the pain. This TV was easy to set up, has nice sound, beautiful picture, and user-friendly menu options. It also looks really nice in my home. I was not a big fan of the red trim (Touch of Color) on some of the other Samsungs, so was pleased to see a model that had nice, less gimmicky esthetic details. I LOVE THIS TV.
