Excellent Job, Samsung! [Posted on 2003-03-17]
I've nothing but good fortune with my Samsung 4215W. It's the best TV I've ever had so far, and I have confidence in this product.
I really wanted it to work! [Posted on 2003-04-16]
I love the look of this TV and it fit perfectly in my living room but after trying twice, I'm scared of getting that third one. The first one worked for four days and then started flickering. Then it just went blue (no cable signal) but the dvd worked fine. I got the second one and it didn't even turn on. I did notice a faint burning smell for a few seconds... I must now decide if I should go with the third. I think the previous reviews have convinced me not to. Better go with another brand!

I bought the 4216 (platinum) in November and have had nothing but problems. Delivery driver unpacked TV only to power up with no picture. Amazon would not allow me to return TV and made me call Samsung for warranty repair. I would think twice about buying on-line for this reason. 1st warranty company came out to repair and had to take TV to shop and replace tuner. Returned TV and regular picture looked fine, but HDTV was blurred. 1st warranty company would not come out to adjust, so I had to call 2nd company and they came out and adjusted lines. It is now May and TV just popped and fizzed and now no sound or functionality. 3rd repair service in less than 6 months. I too heard Samsung had improved their products, but I do not see it. The picture is great when it is working, but for this $$$ I would go with the Mitsubishi if I could do it over again.
terrible investment [Posted on 2003-06-22]
The furniture company delivered the television to me, and not one hour later, the television had mysteriously developed a dark band running vertically down the right-hand side of the screen. This was not always noticeable, depending on what the on-screen display was, but against bright colors (the sky, etc.) it showed up as a yellow stripe. This did not improve "The Matrix," it just made it seem as though Neo occasionally was jaundiced. As if this wasn't bad enough, the quality of the image itself was poor. I would describe it as out-of-focus and as grainy. My DVDs looked like VHS tapes on this television. In fact, they look better on my old 27", non-HD, non-projection Zenith, and when the furniture company came to retrieve this Samsung turkey from my house, I told them my old set would be just fine. Don't waste your money on this one.
Great TV for the Price [Posted on 2006-11-19]
The Samsung HCM4215WX 42" HDTV-Ready Projection TV is an outstanding TV. I remember seeing this TV a few years back. The picture was very clean, crisp and sharp because the NTSC progressive-scan line doubling converts incoming analog sources to a progressive-scan image for a very good picture. You really do not see any scan lines. It is quite impressive.
