Amazon.com Product Description
Thanks to a new, long-lasting LED light engine, the full HD (1920 x 1080p) picture of the HL-T5089S DLP HDTV will last as long as the set. An ultra-thin, piano-black bezel around the 50" screen lets you enjoy more screen and less frame. Its slim depth, light weight and hidden speaker system allow the set to fit where others won't. Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine delivers the widest range of brilliant colors, while a 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio renders every picture in perfect detail, from the darkest darks to brightest whites, and every tone in between. SRS TruSurround XT delivers sound that is clear and full. The HLT generation of Samsung DLP HDTVs are capable of displaying future 3D games, movies, and other programming via 3D compatible glasses and hardware.

LED (Light Emitting Diode) for modern color realization
Samsung's new LED light engine replaces the arc lamp & color wheel design of previous DLP HDTVs, and realizes beautiful color. LED will last the life of the TV. Samsung LED DLP TVs eliminate the need to replace the consumable lamps every few years, and thus have less impact on the environment and on one's wallet. Samsung's LED light engine makes possible an Ultra-Wide Color Gamut that exceeds the NTSC defined color space spec for richer color than you've seen before on TV. Samsung DLP HDTVs with an LED engine are more energy efficient than similar sized flat panel displays, and the lack of a moving color whell in the design means they perform with less noise than any previous DLP HDTV design.

10,000:1 contrast ratio

Two of the most important factors in overall picture quality contrast and brightness achieve new heights by capturing blacker blacks and crisper whites.

5 out of 5 stars Great HDTV   June 14, 2008

4 out of 5 stars Gift for my brother   May 27, 2008
Don Weiser (Pisgah Forest, NC)
My brother loves this TV. Samsung makes great TVs BUT I have a problem with them on this one. Samsung shouldn't advertise this TV as having PIP (Picture-In-Picture) when it only has one tuner and therefore does NOT have PIP! Samsung's response, you CAN watch a TV channel AND a VCR or DVD player which we call PIP. Who wants that I ask? Your BAD Samsung!!

Samsung HLT5089S 50-inch Slim LED Engine 1080p DLP HDTV

Ordered this TV on Amazon site, Vanns fulfilled the order. The set arrived on time and in excellent condition. Despite being rear-projection it is very slim. Picture quality is excellent. I was a little concerned because I have read that DLP TV's are not great if viewed at an angle. While there is a slight decrease in the vibrancy of the color when not viewed directly, even at 45 degrees I think the picture is still very clear and bright. Excellent contract ration. With the LED engine, no noise, no rainbow. The set has so many inputs I can't use them all, 3 HDMI, two component, composite, etc.



1 out of 5 stars Poor Quality Control   May 6, 2008

I did not get this TV from Amazon, but purchased through another retailer.

The TV was delivered yesterday and set-up. Out of the box the TV does not work. There is no RED. Only Blues and Greens. This is on all inputs and when you go into the setup screen to adjust colors you still can not get any reds in the picture. On top of that, even HDMI output from the DVD player looks very grainy. In the store the picture on this TV looked great, but quality control is horrible. There is no excuse for spending this much on a TV and having to get it repaired out of the box!!!!!!!

Unfortunately the place I bought it is forcing me to go through Samsung for the repair and will only replace it if Samsung can not fix. The first thing I will do if it is repaired, is sell it and go by something else. This is the first and LAST Samsung product I will ever buy. I went with DLP because, #1 I am affiliated with the chip maker and wanted to support my own products. #2 with the LED light sources I felt like I would get a TV that would last a long time.

Well I still want an LED DLP, just not Samsung.



5 out of 5 stars Best Value in DLP   March 23, 2008
K. T. Reynolds (Triangle/Triad Area, NC United States)
This television is amazing. The remote & menus take some getting used to but it has a bright, vibrant picture and the action scenes translate efficiently and clearly (watching the NCAA Tournament) with no blur. The LED light below the power button is annoying but this is most definitely the best value in DLP TV's with an LED light engine it should be nearly repair free over the lifetime of the product. I highly recommend this television.
