For those who are ready for the clearest, brightest picture on the market today, Samsung presents the LN-T5271F. Full 1080p resolution is just the beginning: Samsung's incredible Auto Motion Plus 120Hz technology reduces motion blur for crisp, precise action. The color-saturated 40" picture boasts a 25,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, displaying rich blacks and capturing subtle nuances. A fast 8ms response time ensures smooth, lifelike motion.

Auto Motion Plus 120Hz This technology doubles the frame rate from 60 to 120 frames per second (120Hz LCD panel) without repeating the same image to make more frames. Instead, the TV intelligently calculates the ‘middle’ image between frame A and frame B and inserts it in between (Auto Motion Plus 120Hz processor), making a fluid transition from one frame to the next. 25,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio 25,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio will give you a picture better than you ever thought possible, with whiter whites, blacker blacks and a nearly infinite subtlety of gradations in between. Wide Color Enhancer Samsung’s exclusive Wide Color Enhancer technology delivers more brilliant colors, even in bright areas of the picture where blues and greens are washed out on conventional screens. The system displays wider color reproduction, showing you truer colors – the fresh green of spring foliage, the intense blue of the summer sky.

Nothing better
Best LCD TV I have ever owned. I was amazed as to the ease of setup and functionality with the peripheral equipment.
LOVE MY "TUBE"
I like watching thisw TV. I have DirecTV with HD DVR and a HD DVD player. The picture is amazing clear. I have the option to either listen through the amp in surround or through the TV speakers. Either works for me, you should use a sound sytem capable of switching and upgrading to HDMI 1.3. SOmne of the features, such as automatic color adjkustment and such, are nice to have, but I think it works great without any of them turned. There are three "memory" settings for video. I set them up for the changes in room lighting and it's very simple to switch.
Awesome TV!
This is by far the coolest, best purchase I have made in years. I got this TV at a great price, and it was more than I could have imagined. Great picture, sleek looking TV. It arrived fairly quickly and in perfect shape. Samsung knows how to make TV's! The 120 Hz technology is something that everyone will be wanting in the coming years with Blu-ray technology coming to the forefront.
Amazing picture. 120hz is a joke!
Had this TV for six months now. Just as many of the other reviewers have said, the picture and clarity of this TV is unmatched. You are just going to be blown away by the colors, brightness, and overall picture quality, hands down. I'm convinced that this 120hz technology is nothing more than a marketing gimmick. It just doesn't work. The screen gets all choppy and studders when it kicks in and is extremely distracting. I've contacted Samsung and installed the latest updates but it just flat-out doesn't work. Luckily, I can turn it off and the LCD's infamous "motion blur" doesn't bother me anywhere near as much as the 120hz fiasco. In the end, I would say buy the plasma. You'll save yourself enough money to buy a blu-ray player, a ton of movies, and a lifetime of popcorn and you'll get a comparable picture quality without the motion blur.
Inferior product, poor support
Bought TV less than 1 year ago. It died 2wks ago. It's still under warranty. Other than wait longer, Samsung has not been able to tell us what's wrong, when it will be fixed. Poor customer support, inferior product.
