Product Description
There are two key things that make the Samsung LN-S4095D way ahead of most widescreen LCD TV models: 1920x1080 Resolution and 6,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio. Look at the specs of other models. You'll see 1366x768 screen resolutions and contrast ratios of about 2,000:1. First, 1366x768 screens can only display 720p and 1080i HDTV modes. Only 1920x1080 can display optimal 1080p HDTV. At a 6,000:1 contrast ratio, this LCD flat-panel screen can bring out better black and white tones thany virtually any other LCD on the market. If you decide to use this screen with your computer, the resolution and imaging is superior to virtually all TV models and most computer monitors.
This has both NTSC analog and ATSC digital TV tuners. The ATSC can already receive free over-the-air HDTV broadcasts (when used with an optional HDTV antenna).
So if you're considering an upgrade to widescreen and HDTV, why go for the middle when you can go all the way to the HD ideal? 1080p is where it'll be. This 40" LCD from Samsung can do it - with the best picture possible. It's a home-theater star!

Customer Reviews
Broke just after 1 year warranty expired
The TV screen that I paid a fortune for broke after 13 months of owning it. The warranty had just expired and Samsung told me tough luck. One minute were watching tv and the next the screen turns purple and for the past week hasn't changed... just a nice purple screen with a few white lines through it. The techs that came to look at it said the entire panel needed to be replaced but couldn't really explain why. I've now searched the net and found numerous other instances of this issue. Basically the tv that I spent $2,500 on is now worthless. I HIGHLY recommend that you choose another TV... this is a common malfunction. Malfunctions are fine when you buy a cheap tv but not one for $2,500!!! I'll NEVER buy anything Samsung again.
Great Picture - Great Service
I have had this TV for over a year now and could not be happier. The HD picture is incredible, and human tones look 100% accurate. Ive seen a lot of TVs since making this purchace and the quality of the LN-S4095 is second to none.
Recently, I noticed a black line that ran horizantally accross the screen about a quarter of the way down. I called Samsung customer service, and they told me that I was a week out of warranty, but not to worry, because they typically extend warranty repairs by two months, so I was completely covered. This is huge because it turned out that the entire panel needed to be replaced ($1500). Everything was repaired at no cost to me and Samsumg could not have been more accomidating.
I will never by another brand.
LCD TV
I couldn't be happier unless I could afford a larger screen I am a direct TV customer and the picture is great in HD. Now I really want to upgrade the rest of my stuff.
