Customer Reviews
Not so good Television
Bought the TX-R3079WH about 3 years ago, and recently one side of the screen is so blurry you can't read text and the images are blurred in that area noticeably. This thing gets maybe 3 hours a day use. I would not buy this television, especially since Samsung does not appear anxious to stand behind their product.
$900 paperweight
I've had this TV for about 2.5 years. Just after a year (out of warranty), it got a green cast to the upper right corner. Then the letterbox edges got wonky (non-straight, weirdly curved). Then I got another green cast in the lower left hand corner. Yesterday it just died. I searched the model number on the internet and all these problems are apparently common.
When it worked, the HD image was quite clear and it was a great TV. Now it's dead. Remember when TVs lasted 10 or 20 years, not 2?
Bad choice for an HDTV
I got this 2 years ago when my old sony of 15 years went poof. At the time I did not have the money for a Plasma or LCD and thought this would be a good option. Well The HDTV pic was ok, better then my old sony. But lot of drawbacks. Line bending. Plus despite sheilded monitors the screen got purplish on the top right. Nice blacks however. Worst problem was the line bending. Destoryed teh HD image. Even the side bars for a 4:3 pic were bent. Once I noticed it it was all I could see. I replaced this TV after to years for a plasma. Now I really see that despite both being HDTV's the Plasma takes the cake.
