This television is the 52" inch version of the 46", the LE46A656, which we tested.
Characteristics, the panel and circuitry are identical and only brightness may vary slightly which minimally affects contrast. According to manufacturers (and our tests confirm), results from one diagonal size can easily be extrapolated to identical models of bigger or smaller sizes.
This television comes in 32, 37 and 40 inches although the first two seem to slightly differ from the other models. For example, the 32'' doesn't have Motion Plus 100 Hz and the panels of the 32 and 37 inch are different from the others in this line.
Pluses
-
Efficient Motion Plus 100 Hz mode
-
Very deep black
-
Multiple adjustments possible
Minuses
-
Colors slightly inaccurate
-
No digital HD tuner
It's mostly the lack of an HD digital tuner that denies the LE46A656 another star. Luckily, its big brother, the A676, has one.
