There is no expert review on Samsung LN52B530, but David Kender at Televisioninfo.com did review Samsung LN40B530, which is in the same model series with the same features except the screen size. Accorder to this review, “Samsung LNB530 series LCD is a great, simple television. It performed well on almost every test, but was lacking in special features.”

Retailers seem to be combining a lot of products this season, making bigger deals and better presents for all. The latest combo in our crop of bargains is at B&H Photo/Video. They've grouped Sony's 40-inch KDL-40V5100 1080p LCD and the BDP-S560 Blu-ray player for $849. Here is the link:
- Sony KDL-40V5100 40" 1080p HDTV & BDP-S560 Blu-ray Player: $849 with free shipping. Save $300.
Sony's 40-inch TV is part of Sony's BRAVIA line. Aside from a 1080p picture, it also features a Motionflow 120Hz refresh rate, the BRAVIA Engine 2, a 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, seven HD inputs, and support for BRAVIA Link (via an optional adapter).
The BDP-S560 Blu-ray player is fully BD-Live-ready, with on-board decoding of DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby TrueHD and even analog multi-channel audio outputs for full compatibility with older home theater systems.
You might want to work fast. Yesterday, this deal was $46 cheaper. Still, the cheapest we could find was $30 more -- and that was just for the TV. So, you get a discount, a free Blu-ray player and free shipping.

2. Viewing Angles
Normally we sit looking direct at the TV set, but you also need to think of guests and family members. For instance, it’s worth taking into account that Plasma TVs have better views from obtuse angles compared to LCD TVs where viewing quality is reduced from such angles.
3. What HDTV Technology should I Choose?
As you’ve probably gathered, HDTVs have two main technologies: Plasma and LCD. But new technologies have emerged since HDTV’s early days. Technologies like OLED and Rear Projection are now available but should really only be considered in very special cases.
LCD TVs are the more popular of the two HDTV technologies, with the widest range of screen sizes and an improved picture performance. LCD HDTVs are suitable for brighter rooms with large windows as they reflect less light.
Over the years LCD HDTVs dominated the sales in the mid/low size range forcing Plasma TV manufacturers to refocus their efforts on larger TV set. If you are thinking big (we’re talking 50 inches plus), you want to look for a Plasma TV. It is important to remember that Plasma is not the best choice for rooms with too much light in, as the glass on the screen reflects direct light more readily than LCD screens.
4. Resolution
Thanks to the Blu-ray revolution and the next generation of game consoles (particularly PS3 and Xbox 360) resolution is a key feature in HDTVs. For serious gamers a Full HD with 1080p is undoubtedly the best option but, again, viewing distance remains a factor because from 12 feet, a normal person with a perfect eye-sight cannot tell the difference between a 720p and a 1080p TV regardless of size.
5. Contrast Ratio
Very simple tip here: when it comes down to contrast ratio the higher the better.
And with that, we’ve covered all the basics you need to know before purchasing your first HDTV. For those readers who already own an HDTV and would like to share their personal experiences feel free to leave your comments below.
