Report: 58% of salespeople recommend Samsung HDTV?

Would you trust your big time electronics entertainment juggernaut screen decision on the opinion of someone in a blue shirt in a big box electronics store? Many who read this might now wouldn’t, but plenty do, and there’s an interesting new report about the brands they tend to recommend.

They’re generally told that Samsung HDTVs are the best a rather surprising 58% of the time, based on J.D. Power and Associates reports and surveys, which (thankfully) also found that salespeople are less likely to recommend LCD over Plasma, which is good but contradictory over the market sales norms we’ve heard about.

We’re not knocking Samsung, who makes some nice TVs no doubt, but the brand and frequency sort of shocked us a bit. We always recommend you read reviews for yourself and do your own research before buying any HDTV. You’ll thank us, and your eyes will thank you as well.
