Samsung LN52A630 52-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV Review from Thomas E Rhodes rhodesie. Trick to research, I have had the LN52A630 for a week now and I have to tell you that it is clearly the best overall choice for an LCD TV with 120hz. I recently wrote a similar review for the LN46A630. I chose to replace it with the 52″ only because our livingroom is too large for the 46″.
I’m not sure why more people are not going for the 630’s over the 650’s just for the glare issue alone. My friend has an A650 and in my opinion the reflections are just as bad in his living room as they were in the showroom of the big box stores with the 650. I have two windows directly opposite the TV and a large bow window to the right. My concern was how little control I would have with that much natural light hitting the TV. So far, my 630 has past the evening lighting test with flying colors. With all of the possible lights on in this large room, there is absolutely no reflecting light visible on the TV. During the day with the Sunlight filtering directly into the back windows hitting the TV, there is no reflections to speak of. Awesome, consistent picture on the “matte” screen.
Thanks to the reviews of the 650’s about the reflections, I took a chance with the 630 with the “matte” screen and am I ever glad that I did. The difference is significant and because of this reason, I truly believe that the 630 has a better overall picture. It’s all about personal preference. Sure it’s got one less HDMI and slightly less contrast ratio because of the screen but there are more than enough settings to compensate for this.
I am still making adjustments and learning just what this TV is capable of, but I got to tell you that the Celtics/Hawks game in HD was nothing less than orgasmic. I was in awe switching between that and the Hockey game in HD. Unbelievable!
This TV is the way to go if you want all of the features of the 6 series but not all of the reflections. Get this TV, you will be happy that you did!
