Review Date: August 25, 2010
Reviewer: E. Brown, California
This TV is great, and worked very well for about 24 months. Then it began having trouble turning on. The led light in the front would just turn on and off. You could hear a bit of noise as the TV tried to turn itself on. Eventually it would turn on... after about 4 minutes of this nonsense. Obviously, I'm about a year past the warranty. I did a Google search and realized there is an entire of community who now hate Samsung TVs. Apparently, the company is putting cheap capacitors in these TVs. When the capacitors begin to fail, which tends to happen at some point past 12 months, the TV begins to have problems turning on and staying on. When you spend $1,000 on a TV, you don't expect it to die just past the warranty. This is, obviously, the last time I buy a Samsung product. Just remember, when you buy something these days, customer reviews on a website like Amazon pretty much mean nothing.

This product has a defect. People writing good reviews about it just haven't had their TV break yet. The power will eventually cut on and off, and you get green static. Apparently, the TV uses 10V capacitors in the power supply, which are inadequate. My TV lasted 18 months. If you are set on buying this TV, get an extended warranty.

This is the second and last TV I will buy from Samsung. Both broke under two years of ownership.
40 inches of entertainment!

Plenty of features, I use this TV as my main TV and as a secondary PC monitor for my PC. Easy to hook up and to switch from over-the-air signals, to cable to PC and it still has 4 video inputs available. It's a sleek looking unit.
Watch out for infrared (IR) interference with other devices

Reviewer: R. Fallin, Texas
Overall I have been pleased with this TV, until I bought a Roku media player. After buying this player came to realize that whenever the screen is dark, this TV generates IR interference and makes the Roku remote unusable. This means that if the TV is displaying the Roku's dark screen saver then you can't wake up the Roku device with the remote. After researching this issue on the Internet I see that many people are having the same issue with different Samsung TV's interfering with Cable/Sat set top boxes and DVD players. I called Samsung and they won't do anything about this issue because it is out of warranty and not enough people have complained about the issue for "this model" to warrant a recall.
Love it..

Sturdy and quality item. Purchased it over a year and a half back. No issues so far. I had also purchased additional warranty for this, hopefully won't need to use it!!
