Good Points

Superb 1080p HD Quality, super sharp images and great sound, works great with Xbox 360, and the overall look is fantastic. Works great with Sky HD package.

Bad Points

Does not give as high quality standard definition picture as I would have expected and took a lot of work with the settings to get the quality of SD better than is was out of the box, I was also disappointed with DVD playback quality and had to purchase a HDMI cable for the DVD player to get a good picture on DVD playback.

Good Points

Amazing product, biggest bang for your buck, lovely design, great picture, no dead pixels

Bad Points

small point for techies: - cannot output 1080p via vga cable from old xbox 360, and samsung firmware is a hassle to update if you need this. however this will only affect a handful of the population with this dilema, besides there is a new cable to work around this minor issue.
