Hi Everyone, I need to make a decision in my purchase.
Which one would you choose?

LNT5265 has a better picture and sound with the QAM tuner. LNS5296 has the cable card. If you use a STB, buy the LNT5265. It is the newest Samung LCD.

That about sums it up. The 5265F is more reflective than the 5296D though. I like the overall appearence of the 5296D better.

I bought 5295 last week. Nice/crystal clear picture but reflective screen. Only, it shuts off my screen after every few minutes. I think this has something to do with "hdmi handshake problem" with my motorola hd/dvr cablebox. This problem pisses me off. Now, I'm using component cable.
