The Samsung FH6030 LED TV has only two main downsides: its rather high input lag, and its limited viewing angle. Besides that, it is a great TV with very good contrast and little reflection.
Our Verdict
The Samsung FH6030 offers both 3D and an excellent picture quality for the price. If you need a wide viewing angle though, you will be better off with an LG TV like the LA6200.
-
Very good contrast ratio.
-
Good motion handling for an LED of its price.
-
Good semi-matte screen. It can also get very bright, so it will not have any problem in a room full of windows.
-
Only 2 HDMI inputs
-
Higher input lag than average, but still playable.
-
Limited viewing angle. The picture quality is reduced considerably when you watch it at an angle.

Test Results
With the lights off, the FH6030 delivers really good blacks for its price.
It also has fewer reflections than average, which is good for watching movies with the lights on.
In a bright scene, very little light is reflected.
Like most Samsung LEDs, it suffers from a very limited viewing angle. If you have people viewing it from the sides, the LG LA6200 has better color uniformity.
The FH6030 handles motion really well. It also features true 24p playback and an option for the soap opera effect.
The FH6030's input lag is slightly higher than average, but still very playable.
