The Samsung LE-52F96BD can be summarised as having a local dimming LED backlight technology that is not prefect but nevertheless, it is capable of delivering unsurpassable true blacks. A few of its likeable features are its true blacks (0 cd/m2) that is possible with [LED SmartLighting], its exceptional detail from 1080 source with [Just Scan] and the fact that it accepts 1080p/24 from PS3 with no more telecine judder makes it even more likeable. While few of its features that have not been that appreciated are it causes flare around bright objects, it also causes black level fluctuation and the shadow detail is less defined compared to other LCDs or plasmas around. One certain reviewer noted that the local dimming LED backlight on Samsung LE52F96BD has brought blacks on a flat screen television to an entirely new level. But due to limitations of the local dimming technology the measured black level actually rises with the amount of bright content on screen. Hdtvtest.co.uk concluded that although purists may well be put off by the colour shifts and lack of image depth occurring intermittently courtesy of [LED SmartLighting], the Samsung LE52F96BD delivers enough inkiness, detail, blur-free motion, connectivity, picture control, and sound quality to deserve recommendation as a package.
