Of all the companies that make HDTV’s, Samsung might be the best combination of reliable manufacturing and low price, and while most people would agree that Sony is better quality and that companies like Vizio are cheaper, you know when you buy a product like a Samsung 47 HDTV that you’ll get a reliable product with top notch customer service, as well as a decent price that won’t put you in the poor house.

While Samsung doesn’t make a 47-inch HDTV, they do make three different 46-inch sets. The first, the Samsung LN-S4696D is a great looking set for a reasonable price. Amazon.com currently has this model on sale for $2800, down almost a thousand dollars from the original list price. If you’ve waited to get a nice Samsung 47 HDTV, this would be a good time to go pick this model up since it is so reduced in price.

Another 46-inch Samsung set, the LN-S4695D is also an extremely nice set. It comes with a fantastic 6000:1 contrast ratio that is sure to make everything you watch look as sharp as possible. This unit is currently selling for $2,449 from J & R, a reliable retailer of electronics. This set is also marked down heavily so if you’re looking to buy a set now, this would be a good choice.

The final 46-inch set that Samsung sells is the LN-S4692D. It has a 5000:1 contrast ratio, and while it isn’t as sharp as the set listed above, it is still a top of the line unit that would look great in any home. This set retails for around $2,049 on Amazon.com and it currently qualifies for free shipping, making this a great buy. Even if you were to get it from your local store, in most cases, they will not ship it to your home for free and sometimes the shipping cost can be outrageous.

While you can’t buy a Samsung 47 HDTV, there are three other options that are very close. You have three different 46-inch HDTV’s that fall in three different price ranges.
