Samsung LN46A850 46-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color

Great Deal Samsung LN46A850 46-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color

I bought the LN46A850 120Hz LCD TV for the networking capabilities. This included: Internet widgets (weather), news headlines, DLNA Digital media servers (DMS), Digital media players (DMP), Digital media controllers (DMC),Digital media renderers (DMR). The TV device is unique in that it plays (renders) VIDEO. Most of the more basic DLNA devices just do pictures (e.g. JPEG) and audio (e.g. MPEG). Other codecs are supported but I've not tried them all yet.

In retrospect the video capabilities are fairly limited in the codecs they support. I'm trying this with Windows 7 (Windows Media Player) and still doing some testing. Keep your expectations low with video and consider a PC-attached media server if you plan on actually using "slide show" photo control, but I understand a remote control (v. keyboard) is a very attractive option for technically challenged users.

The 120hz is a big win over older technology especially when viewing sports. I'm unaware of any significantly better performance using 240Hz. My older Samsung 32" HDTV has had some modulation processing errors on HD audio. On my older Samsung HDTV, I often had garbled sound when watching HD / QAM. On this HDTV we have not had this problem. The LN46A850 is fairly thin and wall mountable but IT's A TV! --- not a piece of art. A

DO NOT BUY - R. Chapman - NY, NY
The Samsung 8 Series has an issue with the IR signal being too strong. It does not work with Set top boxes from any major cable provider (Cablevision, Comcast, Time Warner). When Samsung informed me that a new part and service would be requested for me, I was very pleased. TWO MONTHS LATER AND NO SERVICE I recieved a phone call from Samsung that they no longer make the part and would not replace the television with a similar model. They offered me a refund to walk away.

After being sold a defective model and the poor quality of customer service, I WILL NEVER BUY A SAMSUNG AGAIN!

Danger - Samsung Warranty - No Wireless Support - Phils Samsung - Denver, CO
I will Never buy another Samsung Product again. Why, you ask?

I purchased this TV (LN46A850) 10 months ago (Feb.'09). One of the main reasons I selected this TV was for its wireless LAN ability. I'm just now getting around to adding this function so I can connect the TV to my wireless network and I find that Samsung does not support this function even though its in the specifications and in the User's Manual. It requires a Samsung wireless LAN adapter (pt# WIS-08BG2X) that is only available from Samsung.

Problem: Samsung does not sell this item any longer and there is nowhere else to get one!

I attempted to do a warranty claim today and the customer service people tell me its too late, that I should have returned the TV within the first 30 days if I didn't like it. This TV is still under warranty and Samsung will provide no technical support, no firmware fix, no wireless adapter and no warranty exchange! I'm stuck with this TV that has no wireless capability and Samsung says, "Sorry, can't help you!" I just wanted to warn anyone what to expect from Samsung in case you are foolish enough to purchase one of their products. I learned the hard way. Samsung, never again!
