Samsung HLT5689S 56" Slim LED Engine 1080p DLP HDTV
Expectations have risen sharply for DLP televisions thanks to the new 89S series of DLP HDTVs from Samsung, each of which
includes the Slim LED Engine. This unique light source delivers brilliantly clear 1080p pictures unlike anything you've
seen on a DLP set before.
In comparison to TVs in Samsung's own 87S series, the Samsung HLT5689S includes a few things the 87S are lacking: HDMI v1.3,
Picture-in-Picture, and Bluetooth.
Here's a brief review of the HLT5689S's main selling points...
Empowered by Texas Instruments' DLP technology, the HLT5689S utilizes its Cinema Smooth light engine to display a brilliant image that's as reminiscent of movie theater quality as you can get in a current television.
The HLT5689 registers a brilliant 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, and its wealth of input options (with 3 HDMI), and special mode for gaming which is perfect for next-generation game consoles like Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, which are capable of kicking out high-definition video.
The HLT5689S also includes SRS TruSurround XT to generate surround sound that simulates movie theater quality right in your own living room, without the necessity to place speakers all throughout the viewing area.
But perhaps most impressive is the fact that the HLT5689S's LED Engine is designed to last the set's lifetime, meaning you won't be stuck buying lamp after expensive lamp.
And don't let us be the final word whether or not you should buy the HLT5689 vs. other sets like plasmas and LCDs. The true definitive word should come from other buyers, who have written user reviews you should read at Amazon.com.
