I've had this TV a week and highly recommend it. Picture quality on digital HD cable and on Bluray is awesome. Even standard def channels look good. The ability to play digital video files (AVI, MKV, MP4) off a USB drive is really handy. Speakers are perfectly adequate for watching TV but they fall a little short on movies, so consider adding a soundbar. I don't care for the "Standard" 120Hz setting - makes the video look like a soap opera - so I turned it down to "Clear" and it looks much better. The "touch of color" red in the stand is an odd choice, but is hardly noticeable when you are sitting on the couch. Odds are your attention is going to be focused on the screen, not the stand, so I don't find this to be a problem. This is one of the few models with a matte screen (as opposed to glossy) and was the right choice for me as our room has several windows in it. Even during the day this screen is more than bright enough to avoid getting washed out. I also recommend setting the "black tone" to dark for watching movies as it makes the blacks a little deeper. There are a few network features, for stock quotes and the weather, but I find this to be of limited use.
I see no reason to spend several hundred dollars more to get the LN52B750...don't see how much better it could be to justify the premium. All in all, I am very happy with the LN52B630.
