I (yet) does not receive HD, I'm pleasantly surprised by the brilliance of the image. So far, I still had a 4: 3 tube that simply did not want to go broke and I had already warned all that I'll be totally disappointed by the larger image with no HD in comparison - not at all! It is not HD but still really sharp. The colors are super over, the sound is great in the right setting, the settings can be for someone who at least is not afraid to break something do without instructions. For me, the only one tiny point of criticism on TV: When you look at Teletext and wants to leave the text you need to press the button several times (Text - TV / Text shared - text transparent - TV). As a simple exit button I miss (maybe I have just not found) but I knew beforehand, because of friends and some have a Samsung TV. I would buy the television time and again !!!
