Samsung Series 5 Full HD LCD TVs
Building off the sophisticated design and performance feature set of the 720p Series 4, Samsung's 1080p Series 5 takes the SAMSUNG LCD HDTV experience one step further. These TVs feature touch-sensitive manual controls that eliminate the side buttons. The Series 5 LCD HDTV incorporates many premium features, like 24p, Clear Panel, three HDMI connections, Entertainment Mode and a Dynamic Contrast Ratio of up to 30,000:1, and is available in the following sizes: 32-inch, 37-inch, 40-inch, 46-inch, 52-inch.

1080p Resolution
Enjoy outstanding clarity and resolution with this SAMSUNG LCD HDTV. Images are crisper, sharper, with superior details.

Built-In Digital Tuner
All Samsung LCD HDTVs have an integrated digital tuner. So, whether you're watching over-the-air HD digital broadcasts or connecting to cable/satellite service, Samsung has got you covered.

Game Mode
Get in the game with enhanced blacks, sharp picture quality and optimum audio. At the touch of a button, game mode speeds up the image processing response so you get the most out of your gaming experience.

Contrast and brightness levels achieve new heights with a 60,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio.

A very fast 6ms response time virtually eliminates any blurring and gives you smooth-motion action scenes.

ENERGY STAR Compliant
By being ENERGY STAR compliant you are assured that your SAMSUNG model is helping the environment by using less energy while saving you money. ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy promoting energy efficiency.

60,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio
Contrast and brightness levels achieve new heights in this HDTV. Get a more realistic, sharper picture quality that's sure to catch your eye and watch movies and shows come to life.

6ms Response
One of the most important features for an LCD panel is the pixel response time. Response time refers to the amount of time it takes a pixel to "refresh" itself-to go from being active to being inactive, (ready to be re-activated). The lower the milliseconds, the faster the response time. A very fast 6ms response time virtually eliminates any blurring and gives you smooth-motion action scenes.

SRS TruSurround HD
Assisted by the LN52B530's two 10W bottom speakers, this creates an immersive, feature-rich surround sound experience from two speakers, complete with rich bass, high frequency detail and clear dialog.

Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?

With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get. Minimum size = Viewing distance/3 Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

It came 2 days earlier than promised! The delivery service came at the time we scheduled and he set up everything for me.

I loved this TV from the moment I turned it on. The picture is perfect, the menus are easy.

My only not-good surprise was no optical-input. That was solved by replacing the component cables & optical sound with a single HDMI cable - that is easier to hide anyway!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Picture, Great Quality, Incredible Value, December 18, 2009

What an incredible television. You cannot beat this TV for the price. The BAD REVIEW listed on this site is for a different Samsung TV so I am a little confused as to why it remains. Do not let that bad review sway you from this purchase. The black trim around the screen is shiny black but the screen is matte finish so if you have glare issues like I do, this TV is great. The sound quality is just typical TV speaker quality; very little bass. I bought a set of Sony Shelf speakers on this site for $49.00 and they sound awesome (hooked up through a tuner). All my electronics integrated perfectly with this TV. You will be amazed at the quality of this TV and will ponder how you got such a great TV for the price. If your worried about the 60hz, there is no noticeable difference between it and the 120hz.
