Front
The front of the LN52B750 has the same clean, simple design as the other models Samsung announced this year, with a stand made of aluminum and glass. One difference is a change in the styling of the bottom part of the bezel, though; a clear space separates the screen itself from the speaker bar at the bottom.
Sides
The left side of the LN52B750 has no major features, but the right is the home to the side ports panel. The LN52B750 is slightly deeper than the high-end LED backlight models that Samsung has announced this year at about 2 to 3 inches thick, but it doesn't look or feel overweight.
Stand/Mount
The stand has the same styling as all of Samsung's 2009 line, with a large piece of aluminum forming the base plate, and a glass pillar holding up the main part of the screen. It's a very attractive look that makes the panel look rather like it is floating on air. Standard VESA mounting ports are located on the back of the LN52B750, and the entire stand can be removed for wall mounting.
Display Size & Technology
The panel in the LN52B750 is a 52-inch LCD panel that has a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels. uses CCFL (Cold Cathode Florescent Light) backlights. Although we are seeing an increasing trend for LED backlights, that's restricted to the higher end models, and middle of the range models like this one are still using the older technology. That's not necessarily a bad thing, though; CCFLs are a proven technology.
Refresh Rate & Motion
The major upgrade that this model includes is the addition of a 240Hz refresh rate and an update to Samsung's Auto Motion Plus motion processing. The increase in the refresh rate (last year's models only did 120Hz) should mean smoother motion, as the screen is updated more often and the TV attempts to smooth out fast movement between frames that can cause juddering or jerky motion. We'll have to wait and see how effective this (and the update to the Auto Motion Plus) will be until we can get in a review unit, but the demos that Samsung were showing certainly looked promising.
Viewing Angle
We saw a wide viewing angle from the LN52B750; colors started fading out at about 30 to 40 degrees from straight on, but they were still pretty viewable at wider angles. We did see that the edges of the screen seemed to get brighter at more extreme angles, but this may be related to the pre-production nature of the display. Samsung also claims to have improved the front of the screen with the addition of a polarizing filter that helps to block reflections
Color
Samsung offers something called Wide Color Enhancer 3, which they claim matches the colors of the video source more accurately to the colors that the display can actually reproduce. Samsung claim that this means more accurate but vibrant colors, but we weren't able to test this feature at the show. An additional viewing mode called Natural is also present, which aims for color accuracy rather than the exaggerated colors that some modes produce.
Audio & Video Ports
We were not able to get access to the back of the LN52B750 to determine which ports were on offer, but we were able to ascertain that there should be 4 HDMI ports in total, plus a selection of analog inputs on the back. On the side of the LN52B750 are a selection of ports designed for devices that need to be plugged in and removed on a more regular basis, shown in the photo below. These are (from the top) a USB port, a HDMI port, an additional USB port, and a combination of composite video and analog audio inputs. Noticeably absent here is a headphone port.
