Samsung LN52A850 52-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV Review
This is an amazing set. For the past year I’ve been holding out for an XBR but recently the feature set in those sets isn’t up to par with what it used to be. This TV has a nice balance of features (beyond just TV), a really nice picture and is very thin.
The DLNA is pretty cool. Right out of the box it found my laptop on the network and I could browse pictures and music it had – presumably because Vista and Windows Media have DLNA and ‘serve’ up content to whoever is on the network. Even more shocking was that it saw my 4-year old Sony Vaio that came with its own media server capabilities. The TV locked up (had to unplug it) when trying to view pictures, but music and some videos played just fine. I’ve not installed the software that Samsung supplies with the set – so it should get even better.
One word of CAUTION though. If you have a Dish receiver or Pioneer cable box, note that presently this set will likely interfere with your ability to make use of the remote controls for those units. Changing the IR channel on the Dish remote to 15 has been known to work.
