Great Price Samsung LN40C630 for Too low to display
Samsung LN40C630 40-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV (Black) Review
I purchased this set a few months ago for a much lower price (under 0). At that price I consider it a great deal. It was delivered by CEVA somewhat on-time (they did get the day correct) and it has performed flawlessly since setup. I have encountered none of the problems of other reviewers. After having used the set for some time now and comparing it to my Panasonic plasma which I have owned for 2.5 years, I can definitely comment on the differences. This Samsung looks good, HD over the air especially looks very good. But the image can be somewhat harsh and artificial when compared to the plasma. I have also noticed image stutter on it although I don’t consider it a huge issue. I can say after comparison that I prefer the plasma. Apparently I got my Panny just before the rising black level issue took hold, because my set still looks as good as it did on day 1, excellent.
I would encourage anyone to look into the possibility of receiving HD over the air using an antenna. I purchased an indoor antenna from Monoprice when I bought the plasma but found after experimenting that on old telescoping antenna from an old TV worked just as well. If you are near the towers you can get very good stable reception and best of all it’s FREE!!! Plus the signal is not subjected to another layer of processing and compression from your cable provider, it is coming directly from the station to the tower to you. Go to [...] and follow the instructions for determining your ability to receive HD OTA.
Also I mentioned Monoprice. Flat-out the BEST place to buy AV cables, adapters etc… I even purchased a internet router from them, very cheap, works like a champ.

Returning it to Amazon – P. M. Gross –
We always do a thorough review of big ticket items before purchase, so returning an expensive item is very unusual for us.
This set has some good features. We especially like the sound settings to send the music that frequently drowns out the dialogue to the background where it belongs. We also like the remote control which is easier to use than most.
BUT:
We do not have a cable box. The TV input comes from a direct condo-wide hookup. It is digital but not HD.
Most of the channels are cable channels; a few are local or “air” channels. Some TV’s allow the channels to be scrolled seamlessly. This one divides the channels into two groups and several buttons need to be pressed to move from one to the oher.
However, the main problem for us is picture qualtiy. Not sharp; not clear; not vivid. Slightly blurry or runny. Average or worse. We have tried multiple settings including fine tuning on a channel by channel basis but the video is still unsatisfactory.
Perhaps this set works best with an HD input but that is not an option for us at this time.
We do note that the picture is significantly better when playing material from an attached computer which reinforces the idea that there is some sort of tuner issue or incompatibility.
In any event and unfortunately, it is on its way back to Amazon and we are doing more and deeper research before replacing it.
Awesome TV – It’s Me –
This is a great TV. It has great picture quality for the price. You’ll love it!
