CNET Editors' Take

CNET did not review the Samsung HL-T5087S, but we did review a larger model in the series.

Review: Although CNET did not review the 50-inch Samsung HL-T5087S, we did review the 56-inch Samsung HL-T5687S. Judging from their spec sheets, the two Samsung DLP-based rear-projection HDTVs are essentially identical but for screen size, so we expect the picture quality of the 56-inch model to provide a good indication of how the 50-incher will perform. For more information, refer to the full review of the Samsung HL-T5687S. For additional details on Samsung's lineup DLP-based HDTVs, see our roundup.

"Beautiful picture, picks up HD directly from cable w/o box, and width is minimal for TV size" By rdeck

Pros LED eliminates bulb, great picture, great form factor

Cons Sound could be better, though hidden speakers are nice

Summary I bought from **********. The free delivery option was faster than advertised. Delivery company unpacks but does not include “setup” which was just fine with me since I prefer to do this myself anyway.

So far I’m very happy with the set. The prior generation of LED DLP (HL-S5679W) was
