I've been looking forward to this review for a while too. I'm trying to think what the drawbacks of this set are. Excellent contrast since it's a DLP but no rainbows since it doesn't use a wheel & forever bulb life. I guess the big problem with this set is price.

That's funny that the 2 big drawbacks are the menu & remote - 2 things I could care less about. I'm in menu pretty much never & my MX-650 replaces all those lame-o factory remotes.]]>Oct 3rd 2006 3:09PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/Oct 3rd 2006 7:15PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/Oct 3rd 2006 7:21PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/Oct 3rd 2006 10:43PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/Oct 7th 2006 2:18AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/

Please tell me that those aren't your LCR speakers all shown at once in the picture?

Samsung HLS-5679W LED DLP
or
SAMSUNG LN-S5296D LCD (52")

I always was not keen on the LCD refresh time issues with fast motion but not sure if the new Sammys fixed that. But at the same time this set is moving FORWARD with the technology of LED implimentation. I know the next big thing will be the LED LCD sets, but MONEY will play a part. Scared to think what I will have to pay for a 50" LED LCD.

I heard this set has some Color Banding issues (seen it on the AVS forums) but did they fix it as production went along?? I know if you use "MOVIE MODE" it is not there.

Anyway, any help would be fantastic. I know the CNET review said the black levels were bad, but hey ... it is CNET ....... I take them with a grain of salt. I have seen reviews they give with UP FRONT MISTAKES on specs, etc that hindered the review. In short, I love Engadget reiews, CNET BLOWS !!

Cheers

BTW, this will be my main TV and used for my XBOX 360 as well (1080p over VGA and COMPONENT .. YEAH BABY YEAH .... :-)]]>Oct 23rd 2006 11:27PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/]]>Oct 30th 2006 6:49PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/Nov 23rd 2006 4:02AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/engadget-hd-review-samsung-hls-5679w-led-dlp/Dec 22nd 2006 4:14PM
