Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Enjoy better pictures with the Samsung's HL-T5687 DLP HDTV. The piano black bezel is just 0.6-inch wide so the slim depth lets it fit where others won't. The energy-efficient 61-inch screen features a powerful, long-lasting LED light engine that turns on almost instantly. Full HD 1080p resolution and Samsung Cinema Smooth technology deliver a wide range of brilliant colors, with bright images and crisp definition. The blackest blacks, brightest whites and nuanced tones are yours with a 10000:1 dynamic-contrast ratio. Hidden speakers deliver clear, robust SRS TruSurround XT sound. The 120Hz switching speed and Game Mode keep gamers marveling at the lifelike action. A wide range of audio, video and HDMI inputs allow digital connectivity to Cable/Satellite boxes, Blu-ray players, AV receivers and more. Please note: Samsung recently changed the suffix on this TV from HLT-5687X-XAA to HLT-5687SAX. The change was not technical in nature and there is no difference other than the suffix in the model number.

The HLT generation of Samsung DLP HDTVs are capable of displaying future 3D games, movies, and other programming via 3D compatible glasses and hardware.

Samsung's LED color and light engine
The revolutionary new LED system available on Samsung DLP HDTVs offers better color, and energy efficiency.
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.

Samsung Cinema Smooth light engine
Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine create's images with a smoother, more film-like appearance.
Cinema Smooth Light Engine
Samsung is the worldwide leader in creating light engines that harness DLP HDTV technology from Texas Instruments. Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine brings together the right optics, electronic circuitry and replaceable light source to create a brilliant picture that's more lifelike and much closer to film. Now in its sixth year of evolution, Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine delivers crisp, 1080p High Definition resolution with high contrast and brightness, defined edges and sharp detail.

Next Generation DLP Chips from Texas Instruments
Samsung employs a Texas Instruments DLP chip that is comprised of millions of microscopic mirrors. The DLP chip is faster than any other HDTV technology, with the mirrors switching on & off 15,000 times a second to deliver a razor-sharp picture for fast moving images. When combined with Samsung's new Cinema Smooth light engine, the result is a crisp, bright picture with deep, rich colors that's closer to film.

Samsung Cinema Smooth light engine
SRS TruSurround offers a surround sound experience from only two speakers.
SRS TruSurround Samsung HDTVs are equipped with the best that technology can offer in sound quality. Even when viewing regular broadcasts, Samsung's two speaker surround sound makes you feel as if the theater has been brought to your living room.

4 out of 5 stars Comparing Apples WITH apples !   July 17, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I patiently did the Homework. The Comments were and are the best idea for consumers who want the peace of mind they made the Best Choice . Customer comments, such as "buy the Next size up", because the stations transmit smaller images than the screen size YOU purchased,
ex: 56" screen displays a 46" in the 4:3 transmission on cable networks.
Amazon was a Good first time experience. Research/ Buying/Delivery and Product is just what you should expect. I purchased the Samsung Surrond to compliment the Large Screen, and if you want to save more time and money, purchase the Optical and HDMI Cables OnLine as well, the Local dealers Are more expensive , including the delivery charge (if there is one online from Amazon). Consumer Reports substantiated my homework as well in recent issues. Thank You Amazon & Samsung .



3 out of 5 stars help....picture color is all over the place   June 17, 2008
I have owned this model for just five months with very limited use. Recently the picture wants to continually change hue from an orange tint to yellow, back to green.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to tweak the settings to cure this problem, or is it beyond that?
When playing a blu-ray it appears fine and then the general tv(cable) can not hold a steady color. On occasion the screen goes totally black for five seconds or so before it comes back.
I will take any suggestions you can offer.



5 out of 5 stars Samsung DLP TV is Well Worth It   May 22, 2008
I'm not a real technical person, so I'll just cut to the chase. I wish I'd purchased this TV a long time ago. The channels that are broadcast in HD are fantastic and even the non-HD channels look so much better than my old TV. If you watch DVDs or Blu-Ray movies or have a PS3, you'll be amazed. I'm seeing and hearing things on my PS3 games that I never even noticed before. And if you're a sports fan, you won't be sorry. Basketball, baseball, golf, hockey, ESPN, SportsCenter, etc. all look crystal clear. I can't wait until football season starts. My only regret is that I wasn't able to get the 61" for a couple hundred dollars more due to space limitations. When I added a surround system to this TV, the package was complete.


5 out of 5 stars Lovin it so far............................................................   May 15, 2008
So far I am really impressed by this Tele! The shipping experience went well. The delivery man brought the TV into my foyer and waited until I could plug in the set to the cable for an ops check. The picture is so much better than I am accustom to. Colors are vivid and HD channels look great. Standard channels are much better than my old CRT 55". Whats even better is watching a movie from Pixar Studios with a 1080P up-converting DVD player. The picture looks 3D. You can't beat this Samsung for the price. If the LED engine lasts as long as they say, this will be one of my all-time best purchases. Thanks to Amazon and 6th Ave. for a great purchasing experience.


5 out of 5 stars Great Product, fast Shipment, good Customer Service. What more could you ask for?   May 14, 2008
Wow this thing is just awsome. When I first ordered it and heard the company shipped it via cargo I anticipated having to wait MONTHS in receiving it but in actuality it took less than a full week. After getting it delivered it hooked up with ease and the picture is just awsome. 1080i and the new digital tv stations is just out of this world. Like any other format change we've encountered (tapes to CD's, VCR tapes to DVDs, regular tv to Digital) I expected little or no difference but now I'm super glad the government's forcing the switch over. This TV needs no receiver or anything to receive the digital tv and I'd recommend it to anyone.
