Samsung LN46C550 46" 1080p LCD TV
Samsung LN46C550 Feature ReviewThe 5 series LCDs from Samsung are a line of mid tier, traditionally backlit LCD televisions. A 1080p panel with 4 HDMI inputs are the main features of the 5 series. It lacks the internet connectivity of some of the higher lines but the built in ethernet port allows streaming of media content directly from your computer network. USB ports allow you to view media from thumb drives as well.
The 5 series lacks the AutoMotion 120Hz refresh rates of Samsung's upper tier televisions but in our reviews of this feature's performance we don't really consider this a major downside to the TV. For gamers the 5 series features a game mode that bypasses much of the picture processing to lessen or eliminate the input delay associated with many modern, digital HDTVs.
