Bought this back in September. After one month, TV started to fail: after an hour the image on the screen would go to black (only sound would be available), and I would have to turn off / on the TV to get the image back. So, I went to the store and they exchanged it for a new one.

Unfortunately, the problem appeared again on the new set, just after two months after the exchange. Now, I'm dealing with samsung and the local service providers and they both are just terrible.

You can find there are some more cases like this if you search the internet (I'm not the only one). It seems the problem is created by . connecting 2 / 3 HDMI devices at the same time (I have three: Direct TV, PS3 & Apple TV). So far, local service provider told me to "disconnect everything and just plug an air antenna". Of course, the problem appeared again. But what's the purpose of not connecting HDMI devices when that's the whole purpose of buying an HD TV set in the first place?

Terrible product. And terrible service. Don't buy Samsung at all.
