Does this have the stainless steel bevel that "disappears"? I can't tell from the pictures. I have seen Samsung LED TVs with a very thin steel bevel.

ernest is correct. However, the H5500 does have .3" wide bezels, which are half the width of the 2012 EH5300 it "replaces", giving it the look of a higher tier TV.

It has a very thin lip, but it's not an under mount sink. Wiping crumbs directly into the sink is possible, but not as smooth as with an under mount. I typically don't do it. Hope this helps.

I have a 50" Samsung and 55" Samsung TV in my home. They are both LED and glare is not a problem. However, I have replaced an earlier model LG plasma because it did give reflection problems in a room with outside windows. As I understand it, this is a common problem with plasma sets. I hope this helps you.

Why are you touching the bevel? I think the screen is matte. I kinda wish it was glossy.

All the initial description I found said brushed stainless housing and no mention of the interior of the bowl, When I first looked at my unit when I received it I thought it was too dull to be stainless, So to day I tested with what I have, I tested the interior of the bowl with a magnet its non magnetic, not plastic, did not scratch with a small piece of aluminum, but did not sound.. like stainless, I did find a web site that did say " Brushed stainless steel housing, aluminum freezer bowl", my conclusion is it is a harder aluminum

It is a Plasma. Which means that the display is made of glass. There is always going to be some reflection.I have a fairly bright room and I rarely notice the glare. If you are seriously concerned about the glare and have a very bright room, then you should probably rethink what kind of TV you are purchasing. I have had this Samsung for a few months now and I absolutely love it. My only regret was that I didn't buy it sooner.

What I have found is the SAX has the Samsung's new LED light engine replaces the arc lamp & color wheel design of previous DLP HDTVs, and realizes beautiful color. LED will last the life of the TV. So you won't have to replace the bulb every few years.

Actually online aficionado......The new Samsung LED's are WORSE. It is mentioned in cnets reviews and some have left comments here on amazon. One guy mentioned how he can see streaks running through his new LED tv in a dark room. So yeah... LCD's only look good when the lights are on.My friend has a panasonic plasma that he games on a lot. NO BURN IT. There is temporary image retention but that goes away fast.

In my understanding of most stainless replicas they aren't meant to hold an edge as the metal is thinner. I don't sharpen display replicas myself to avoid damage. I would say leave it alone and DO NOT attempt it, but shoot an email to United Cutlery to confirm this as they know the edge thickness of the blade and can guide you better. But I have a feeling they will say "Not advisable".

I tend to disagree. I bought a so-called SS pot and a magnet had no interest in it. The gauge/thickness matters not. If it's based on iron (which SS is) then a magnet is attracted to it. Me thinks aluminum with chrome finish.

It has a glossy finish. It does cause some glare, but not nearly to the extent I have witnessed on Plasma Tvs. Hope that helps

I think the best way to describe it is Arctic stainless is lighter and brighter than stainless (which is a darker gray). We have Samsung and LG Stainless steel appliances and we think the Arctic stainless matches much better.

Hi, I was just curious if anyone else has had similar luck getting someone to acknowledge a fix for the halo effect on this TV or actually has a confirmation that it was fixed?. Cornwell has anyone come to replace your bezel yet and did it fix the problem? Thanks all,

I got the stainless-look with the black bezel. It certainly doesn't look cheap to my eye. It goes with our kitchen decor; I like it a lot. I'm not as wild about the all black look. However, when placed in the corner, the front bezel is mostly what you see.

I believe all flat screen TVs have some reflection on their screens from windows, table tamps, etc. (I don't know any that don't.) My Samsung does have some screen reflection but the screen is semi-matte and the picture itself is very bright so it over-rides the reflections to a great extent. I don't like it but I don't know of any others that are any better. If you don't want any reflections you'll have to go back to the old CRT rear projection sets. The special thing about the Samsung is the brightness of the picture.

LoL. As an individual who considers the aesthetics of my environment, including my home theater setup, I can appreciate this question. The LED is the standard bright blue. Mine is in a cabinet below few feet below the TV but still visible through glass. I have never had a problem noticing it too frequently and it certainly has never caused an annoyance. I would not be surprised if there was a dinner or a way to turn it off but I honestly have not looked into it. if you are looking at this from a negative standpoint I certainly would not let this weight heavily in your decision. I did my research before getting this and I can't say enough about it. Blows the comparable Monster products out if the water in terms of quality and price. Enjoy

The terms LED and LCD are thrown around here a bit too freely. Just to be clear, both TV's would have LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) Screens. One model apparently has newer LED (light emitting diode) supplemental lighting for the LCD screen that makes for thinner TV's. The other model apparently has the older type of LCD screen supplemental lighting using fluorescent tubes. When the LED-lit LCD TV's came out, the claim was that the LED's are much less prone to failure than the fluorescent tube lighting.
