[quote=Navydoc] The Samsungs are also excellent, but I hate the reflective screen. [/quote]

Yeah, I was all ready to buy a Samsung LN52A650. Consumer reports gave it a great review, it has the 120hz refresh rate, and you can get one on Amazon for $1846 with free shipping and no tax. All I had to do was go to Best Buy and look at one to make sure I liked it. And it looked great except for the reflective screen. Might as well buy a plasma if you’re going to have a reflective screen.

Anyway, on to my question, hoping for NavyDoc’s (or anyone else’s) expert opinion:

I asked the guy at Best Buy (I know, probably not an expert) why they’d put a reflective screen on an LCD TV. He said that with that clear “coating” or whatever, you could get a better picture with better colors. Does that seem right?
