Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Bought this TV believing it to be a full led backlit 39 inch screen at a good price. Accepted that the price/feature trade off included that it had just 2 hdmi inputs. The statements on the box are part of the deception: the box is very clever in what it DOESN'T say. The online spec sheet (at samsung.com) fails to provide actual specs on viewing angle, backlighting or speed. The box says its an led tv. It doesn't say it is led backlit, and it doesn't say that its led edgelit. Maybe the box is referring to an led power-on light. The available claims for this product intentionally lead the consumer to make assumptions, and you can or will be wrong when you do so. Samsung never tells you that it operates at 60Mhz, which several reviewers have noted. Rather, Samsung has invented its own, undefined, way of expressing speed, "Clear view," and calls this the UN39HEH5003 tv "Clear view 120." This results in a consumer assumption that it runs at 120 Mhz. The box for this TV does not provide a picture of the backpanel, so I didn't find out it doesn't have a CAT5 internet cable input until I had it at home. Samsung witholds any specs on viewing angles. Consumers should be provided accurate specifications in order that they can make a fair comparison in a free marketplace. The online spec sheet (at samsung.com) also fails to provide actual specs.
