Although CNET did not review the 40-inch Samsung LN40A450, we did review the 52-inch Samsung LN52A650. Judging from their specification sheets, the two Samsung LCD HDTVs are essentially identical but for screen size, so we expect the picture quality of the 52-inch model to provide a good indication of how the 40-inch set will perform. For more information, refer to the full review of the Samsung LN52A650.
