| Samsung 46" LCD HDTV broke after warranty expired | 2010-08-17 | 2 / 5 |
|
| Had the $1250 46" LCD TV 1.5 years and the TV started turning on and off repeatedly one day while playing the Wii. Then when we turned it back on, no picture. Looked online and found out it's a common problem. Samsung would not cover the repair since the 1-year warranty expired. We had to go out-of-town to find a repair shop that works on out-of-warranty repairs because all the local shops were inundated with defective Samsung TVs that are still under warranty. The LCD panel itself was defective and costs $640 to fix, so we bought a new LG. Will not buy a Samsung TV again. Samsung's customer service did not care and just referred us to a shop that wouldn't even take out-of-warranty tv's. Disappointed. |

I needed a new TV, I did my homework for a month and purchaced the Samsung 46 inch 1080p current model, and of course it turned out excellent. If you are looking for a great 1080p TV, the Samsung fits the role perfectly.
Lightweight, sturdy, excellent picture and durable the Samsung brand is one of the best names for high-def TV viewing. It does have some drawbacks, such as weak speaker quality and so-so repair support, but who really buys a 46"+ TV and uses the TV speakers. And Samsungs aren't known for their fragileness and poor worksmanship so you won't be repairing much of them.
Now, a side note when ordering. I purchaced it from at a great price, well below competition prices, and had free delivery with the purchance. The problem is uses a 3rd party shipping company that isn't that great at delieveries. You can easily find many complaints against them and their procedures. I rate and Samsung as top notch with their products and service, I rate the delivery company poor. 10 days after ordering I hadn't received my TV nor heard from the delivery company so I called them. Seems they never contacted to get my delivery info, so the TV was just sitting in their warehouse. I had to CALL THEM to get the TV that I had already purchaced delivered. They also didn't set up or unpackage the TV, they sent 1 person, but the TV is very light and I could handle it easily, but a smaller person might not.
Overall, a top notch TV bought from a top notch company, delievered by a not-so-good company. Still a great buy. As a last word, do your homework. Make sure to get the current year brand of the TV, and if you want to test drive it, go to your local TV store and check them out, THEN order it online and save quite a bit of money. When I bought the TV from it was the new year model and cost 1700 dollars. Best buy was selling it for 2300. |

The SamSung was a disaster to order, the first TV I ordered the LN46A550 and I was awaiting for my TV and then on the afternoon I took off work for delivery I was emailed and told my TV was back ordered so I called and they offered the next model up which I accepted and told it was expedited so when it showed up a week later I was excited except the TV as damaged and if you read the fine print any TV bigger that 40 inch is not covered by insurance so I was lucky that Electronic Expo accepted the information from SamSung's certificated repair shop in town that I took the broken TV to or I would have been out of $1000 so they sent me another TV which I took another afternoon off work to get the TV delivered and they lost it someplace so here is the second day I took off work and no TV. I finally did receive the TV 4 days later and I love the TV but I will NEVER order anything like this online again.

| We bought this August 2008. We loved it. We just started getting a problem where the TV does not turn on. It just keeps clicking. A google search brings you to thousands of related issues. Samsung knows about it. Their customer support sucks. Never buy one of these things. You dream of your first widescreen HD TV then it breaks so fast. Who can afford one of these a year? |
| Samsung LN46A550 turn of and off every 30 sec. | 2010-05-03 | 4 / 5 |

| I own the Samsung LN46A550 LCD TV for about 16 months. The TV suddently turns on and off automaticallly every 30 seconds. I contacted Samsung Service dept. and was told it is out-of-warrenty. I have to pay the service charge on my own. It is a known manfacture defect and Samsung does not stand behind their products. I have talk with CS superisor and Customer Relationship and they all used the same excecuse that the product is out-of-warrenty. So watch out for the problem and I will never buy another Samsung TV. I searched the web, many other users have the exactly same problem I have and it Samsung LN46A550 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTVhappens after the warrenty expires. |
