Pros:
You should make sure you can afford this TV before you go see side comparison between it and other LCD TV’s in an a store. Because you’ll either be walking away with the Samsung LED, or walking away with a product you are certain looks inferior.
I do not see the image degradation viewing it from an angle like others have.

Cons:
Yes, the sound is poor like the other reviews said. The speaker will even reverberate (if that is a word) while the volume if even turned down low. Mounting the TV on a wall does produce better sound than when it is free standing.

It’s been said before, but I’ll say it again. It is absolutely ANNOYING having to hit the “exit” button after selecting an input source. I have never seen this on a TV before. This prevents me from using replacing the Samsung remote completely. You can use a universal remote to change input source, but then you have to go back to the Samsung remote to hit “Exit” to get the selection display off the screen. If anyone knows a workaround, please let me know.
