Weakness: First set had Lamp issues, be prepared for the worst...
After several months of research, we purchased our HLP4663W from Sears. The first set lasted between 6 and 10 hours of operation, then the lamp exploded. Samsung was contacted prior to this review for which they stated: "We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the recent malfunction of your Samsung DLP. There are no known issues with our DLP's". Do your own research, you will find several...
Strengths: Great Picture
Weakness: The lamp, cooling fan and problems associated with these items
I purchased this HDTV and the picture that it produces is great. However, after powering off the set, and within 20 minutes powerin on again I kept getting a warning message that fan #1 was not operating correctly and the "lamp" light would be flashing. To correct this I had to unplug the set from the power supply and try to power up again. The next day I got the same warning message about the...
Strengths: Great picture
Weakness: Shoddy workmanship
Bought this TV in late November 2004 from a retailer. It worked fine for 3 weeks--in fact, we were ecstatic with the quality of the picture. Then, poof, the lamp warning light came on and stayed on, and no picture. It's now the middle of January 2005 and we just finished our THIRD service call on this set, and it's still not fixed. Perhaps the fourth service call, in another week, will do the...
Strengths: Picture quality when it is there
Weakness: Poor reliability
I purchased this TV new in July 2004. Since then, I have had the TV serviced 4 times. Fortunately, as I was concerned about the complexity of the DLP technology, I purchased an in-home service plan. But it has been a hassle having the service techs come out to the house so frequently. The system board has been replaced as well as the lamp. However, the picture just goes dead with the three...
Strengths: GREAT PIC
Weakness: ALLWAYS BROKEN DOWN.. PARTS COST MORE THAN A NEW SET.. WILL SELF DESTRUCT BETWEEN 6 AND 18 MONTHS GARAUNTEED..!!
Dont buy a Samsung. No matter what.. If you think your going to buy a Samsung DLP , "The official T.V. of the N.F.L. " and be the lucky one who doesnt have problems with it YOUR WRONG. I will tell you exactly what will go wrong with it to.. Somewhere between 6 and 18 months the screen will go black.. then the three lights of doom will begin to flash... your warranty runs out at 1 year.. even if...
Strengths: Beatiful picture, relatively lightweight, easy set up.
Weakness: None found so far
Evaluated a number of television types before settling on this Samsung. I have seen none of the problems that other people have written about in reviews, I did however buy the extended warranty to cover potential lamp failures. My wife even loves it, which is amazing. Great set ,must recommend.
Strengths: Picture
Weakness: Lamps don't last very long SD not very good
I've been through 3 lamps since I bought the set. I finally got to hear what blown lamp sounds like last night. I noticed the picture getting progressively darker, even after I cranked the brightness and contrast settings up to full throttle. The two previous lamps I had to replace just kept making the T.V. shut-off. I haven't had to replace a ballast or color wheel yet. The picture of the set is...
Strengths: The picture
Weakness: apparently its junk!
Have had TV for about 9 months now. It started shutting off on its own not long after we had it but didnt happen often. Now the whole thing has shut down , there is no picture - no sound and the all the lights are flashing. Contacted samsung they said I need a new bulb (hope thats all) it is covered under the manufactures warranty but from what Im reading on here this is only the beginning of my...
Strengths: Nice picture.
Weakness: Component failure shortly after warranty expiration.
I have a Samsung DLP TV, model HL-S5086W that intermittently shuts off. It can happen once an hour or ten times an hour. The problem started happening about 15 months after I purchased it and is getting worse. I have had many other TVs but none as bad as this Samsung.

Samsung 46" Projection TV
Strengths: size, picture,no burn in,no picture degradation
Weakness: buy the warranty-
I bought this third generation DLP after a long hard search for the "perfect" HDTV. Plasma's expense and burn in problems (I watch FOX and CNBC often) just worried me too much, and LCDs looked good but not like this. Almost bought an EDTV 42" Samsung plasma because of the cost and the 2 year standard warranty, but I knew I would eventually wonder about a full blown HDTV and would buy one in a few...
