How does this compare with the Samsung HLT6187SAX 61"? Can anyone please compare these two models?

I'm in the same situation here. Any opinions from people who are "in the know" would be appreciated.

I would say yes. I was in the exact same position just a short month ago and before that 2 years ago. My 1st purchase of an LCD was between a 37" and a 40". I went with the 40 and was very happy I did. When our 40" went into the bedroom and we were looking for a TV room replacement it was between the 46" and the 52". So we were looking at 6 more inches or a whole foot. You may not initially notice a big difference in the store because there are so many sets side by side, but when you get it home you'll really see how nice a large screen looks. (if you have the space) Now that we have a 52" I feel like a 60" would be just fine at my home. I ended up with a Samsung LN52A630. Its a very nice set with the 120HZ process rate and I got a very good deal on it. If I had not gotten a deal on the set and had to choose between a 46" with the 120HZ and a 52" without it,,, I'd go with the 52". I think you'll really like seeing a BIG impressive picture. Good luck.

James Friel, nice price on the 46 inch 1080p Samsung. That sounds like a great deal.

Hey I know you guys posted a couple of weeks ago, but if it helps, I have owned both the 4065 and the new LN46A650. I can tell you that the picture quality on the new series is literally leaps and bounds above the older models. I personally think that the 650 series is one of the, if not the best available lcd tv on the market today. If you do not want to spend the extra money on the new series, the 4065 is much better than the 4061, has a better processor, higher contrast ratio, brighter screen for better color saturation, etc.

I just ordered the HP W2207. I went back and forth trying to decide on both, because Samsung has a really great reputation. However, the HP W2207 seemed to have better reviews. No bleeding, tilts for both landscape and portrait views, etc. I saw over and over again where people said it was by far the best display out there right now at this size and price. I saw lots of consistent negatives for the Samsung 226BW: Bleeding; the VERY annoying blue light on the power button which stays on even in sleep mode; the loud, constant buzzing noise after adjusting brightness (most all said it's default brightness is WAY too bright and needs to be dimmed- which means there'll always be the buzzing); no tilting to portrait view; and no height adjustment. Although it can be mounted on the wall, the mounting equipment must be bought separately. The only negative comments I saw repeated with the HP were the possible glare if light hits the screen (because of the glossy screen), and it is more compatible with a PC than a Mac, although it works fine with Macs, there were comments that it is truly best suited for a PC. So it seems as if the HP2207 is probably newer and is overall a better buy. So we'll see how great it is when it gets here. Hope this helps...if you've not already made your decision.

Hey T. McAnaney,Yes, when I compared specs, I too looked and said, why should I pay more for an item that has the same specs? What is so different about this new model. I even went to web sites that had incorrect information on the specs of the TH-42PX600U, and the TH-42PX75U had the specs of the TH-42PX600U. So I ended up buying the TH-42PX600U. Even from what I heard that the 75U is supposed to have 1080p, versus the 1080i, I did not believe it would be worth the additional cost.

It's hard for me to give you an answer since there were more variables that went into my decision to buy the 65f6300. If you want bigger size for a cheaper price then go with the Sharp. If you have more specific questions about the Samsung, such as picture quality and screen uniformity then let me know.

The short and sweet is the A is a 120 Hz screen and the B is 240 Hz. As with most newer models the B has better contrast and response time. You can compare both on Samsung.com to get all the details.

I purchased the Samsung LN52A860S2F a couple of days ago and I was told by the merchant that these tv has a better picture quality then its predacessor, but I can't find that fact anywhere. I wonder if I got tricked in to paying $200 bucks more for nothing.

I forgot to mention; I have a separate sound system, so I'm mostly concerned with the picture. How would you compare the picture quality of the two TVs?

I just bought the 650 40 inch and can't wait. It's being delivered tomorrow..I did a lot of research and also called the Samsung company sales division..they told me there's a one year warranty and if you call with a problem during the first year they will help you in tech dept free of charge..I have to tell you that I've had a Samsung 19 inch computer monitor for three years now..it's great. when I first got it, I had a problem, and they insisted it may be the monitor not the computer itself and they said they should replace it..they did, problem cleared ..no more problem..what great customer service..it may be different with a computer monitor and the tv...in terms of policies and accessibility..I'm deciding on whether to get the extended warranty in spite of the one year because for me, this is an expensive item and a big investment..

I have been doing lot of research on LCD TVs and my observation is LN52B750 is best with internet, 240Hz and 2ms response time for almost same price as the other models. Red TOC some times distract your view compared to the Gray TOC in B750.Fry's in sunnyvale,CA has the B750 model for just $1704 until July 16th.

The only reason I can see is that Samsung discontinued this t.v, and with the overall design is not as space efficient as any of Samsungs other dlp televisions. I have this one and also a 720p set by samsung which I bought in 10-2006. Just to let you know, Samsung also has on sale a 50" DLP 720p set for $899.I bought this one, and gave the 720p set to my parents, and to be honest with you I didnt notice a difference at all. If youre just breaking into the HD world, Id suggest getting one of the HLT models from samsung that is on sale now on amazon. You wont notice a difference, save yourself hundreds, and will less likely have problems with the set, as I and many others have with this particular model.

Here is from one of the reviews for Sony SXRD.I tried the Samsung HLT-6187S that was LED driven. I guess the technology is toooo new and Samsung needs to iron out a few problems with those sets. I had two sets that I went through and so I had to buy my backup set, which was this KDS-60A3000 model. I noticed that in vivid mode, the Samsung HLT-6187S had a very strong blue push during dark scenes, but the colors really popped out. By the way, I used vivid mode to watch animated films. In Sony's vivid mode the colors are natural. No biased color push. The Sony KDS-60A3000 has a very solid build. The Samsung I owned felt cheap, felt like the plastic moved around. Sony's cabinet build felt strong. Here is from one of the reviews for Sony SXRD.I tried the Samsung HLT-6187S that was LED driven.

You know I have both types but only view one at a time and have not done a comparison. One thing I will say about this particular TV is that I would not buy it again. While watching regular Movies or Shows on Netflix or Amazon prime I see motion blur and the the internet connectivity is so sensitive that daily drops out to search for a signal all the while a 2 year older Samsung TV 40' away on the same wireless network doesn't drop out.

Go for Samsung UN50H6350 50-Inch 1080p... Its a way better than plasma, also you will save on electricity bill. Plasma consume more electricity
