| The Bottom Line | CNET did not review the Samsung LN52A530, but we did review a smaller model in a different series with similar specs. | The midlevel Samsung LN46A550 LCD TV strikes an excellent balance between price and performance. | The Samsung LNB750 series can't beat the picture quality of the best plasmas and LED-based LCDs, but for a conventional LCD, it's one of the best we've tested. | CNET did not review the Samsung LN52A550, but we did review a smaller model in the series. | Samsung's PNB650 series can't quite match the best plasmas on the market, but it comes close enough to offer a viable alternative. |
