Samsung HL-T5087S

Pros: Excellent colors and brightness, LED light source, great features

Cons: Viewing angle still an issue. Remote doesn't work with DishNetwork.

The Bottom Line: Best rear-screen TV out there. Better than Sony sXRD.

Review: I had my heart set on the Sony KDS-50A3000 sXRD rear-projection TV. Based on the reviews and what I know about the pros and cons of DLP, LCD, LCoS and Plasma, I thought that the Sony was hands-down the best choice. But when I went to my local Fry's ...

Pros: Very clear picture, good sound, true and natural colors. Easy menu setup.

Cons: optimum viewing angle is a little smaller than I expected

The Bottom Line: This is the best picture for the size and price. Can't be beat on color and picture clarity.

Review: We did a lot of comparison shopping before deciding on the Samsung HL-T5087S. We compared the pros and cons of LCD, plasma, and DLP. We were concerned with the burn in problem with plasma and the motion blur with LCD. The DLP technology in this TV is ...

Pros: Amazing picture and value today at $1149 delivered price.

Cons: Some have reported humming noise issue but my set is 100% perfect (so far).

The Bottom Line: With picture so bright I had to turn it down and LED lamp rated at 20,000 hours, this could be my last TV purchase for a number of years.

Review: This is the opinion of an admitted GadgetAholic. One reason I live in Vegas is so I can attend CES (Consumer Electronics Show) every year and see all the new toys before they hit store shelves. IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not trust the 3/5/08 review ...

Pros: LED engine.  No moving parts for color wheel. 

Cons: The internal speakers and sound quality.

Review: The internal speakers produce a Buzzing noise at anuthing above very low volume.  I think this is beccause of the thin plastic shell that this TV is enclosed in.I wind up playing the sound through my stereo more and more often because I can ...

Pros: Beautiful picture

Cons: Noises from the LED engine (a known issue) and disinterested customer service

The Bottom Line: It has noise problems and the repair center I took it to had 12 others with same issue. DON'T BUY IT

Review: The HL-T5087 should be a good tv. It has excellent color, deep blacks and a quick response time. But the devil is in ONE detail that Samsung's customer service has admitted is a KNOWN problem: the noise the LED light engine makes. Now I'm not a stickler ...
