Strengths: 1080p, remote, size, weight, looks
Weakness: None so far
I read a lot about HDTVs before I bought this. I also owned the Samsung 32" LCD 720p right before this. I read a lot online that you can't tell a difference between 720p and 1080p in TVs less than 42". I completely disagree with that. This 1080p looks much better than the 720p IMO. I'm returning the 32" 720p one. The 5 extra inches makes a big difference. I say if you are going to spend over $600...
Strengths: picture quality, price, pretty much everything.
Weakness: takes a little while for the picture to load
Great TV. Originally thought it'd be a little big for a bedroom- but it turned out to be great. The sound quality is really good, and the picture quality is amazing! HD channels rock!
Strengths: Beautiful design, clear picture
Weakness: more HDMI connectors than S video connectors, so not so great for people like us who haven't changed our DVD players to the HD versions
This is our second Samsung TV. Bought a 32 inch 720p Samsung a year ago and was very happy with the quality, so decided to buy a slightly larger one after our recent move and upgraded to the 1080p version. I don't really notice that much difference between the two different resolutions, but I do think the stand for the 37a550 is steadier than for my old one. The old one wobbles a bit so I'm...
Strengths: easy to set up, excellent picture! good price!
Weakness: remote is too long and awkward to hold. minor issue
I love this TV. I waited a long time to upgrade and it was worth the wait. 1080i on a 37" at a very reasonable price! I should have bought the HDMI cables package offered with the TV. It will save you money. Beach Camera shipped quickly. Nothing bad to say.
Strengths: 1080p; plenty of inputs
Weakness: qam tuner not as strong as previous model
I wanted to purchase a sub-40 in. LCD and was stoked when I heard about this set. I originally had purchased the previous year's Samsung 37" LCD model but returned it because of a humming noise coming from the back of the set. Seems like Samsung had fixed this issue w/ this particular set and am totally happy w/ my purchase. My PS3 never looked better. One thing to note is that the Clear QAM...
Strengths: Great picture quality Light and easy to use
Weakness: Remote does not work well unless it is place directly in front of the units sensor.
The TV took less than 15 minutes to assemble and have on the air. The picture quality was very good, in fact it was better with the internal tuner than with my cable service, which I promptly cancelled, saving $50.00 per month. I purchased it from Onsale.com. Do not buy from this second rate outfit. It was late being delivered and the listing and saleperson, said it had a two year warranty. They...
Strengths: Excellent image quality, lots of video/audio inputs, low glare screen, and nice overall case look.
Weakness: The stand is a little basic, but I guess that happens with most TVs these days.
A 37" TV was the biggest thing we could fit in our TV cabinet. It seemed that any TV under 40" was lacking in options and image quality, but this one stood out with having all the features we wanted, and more. The settings menus are easy to navigate and our cheap universal remote works well with it. It has more inputs than I will ever use and the color depth makes us hardly miss the CRT it...
Strengths: Phenomenal FullHD picture with no distortions when playing action movies. Full set of features and customization options. Remote buttons light up. Only weights less than 35 pounds.
Weakness: Weak TV speakers that produce very little bass. No flash card reader for loading photos or short movies directly on the TV.
I couldn't be more pleased with the purchase of this my first FullHD LCD Widescreen TV. I ordered mine online so my first impression was how light it is, no more than 35 pounds, compared to my family's Sony LCD TVs. The remote is long, but this gives way to bigger than average rubber buttons that light up when the light feature of the remote is turned on. The quality of the colors and the screen...
Strengths: Easy setup. Excellent picure. Great sound quality. Plenty of inputs. Picture & sound modes. Np screen glare
Weakness: None....
This television is perfect. I was thinking of going with the Sharp Aquos or a Toshiba and I am ecstatic with my decision thus far. The picture quality is like no other I have ever seen. My PS3 was easy to connect with this set, and games and Blu-Rays look excellent on it. The SRS surround sound really compliments the TV. I find the settings for picture & sound modes easy to use. I change the...

The Samsung LN37A550's lush picture, especially with HD content, will not disappoint. I can't become as excited about its audio fidelity.

Great TV
Strengths: Very clean picture
Weakness: None Yet
This TV is great for a bead room or office. I have mine set up in an office and it works great. The speakers are better than I thought too. It's also very light weight, which makes it easy to mount.
