Answer: no.

It's mainly just the Samsung's that have a super reflective screen, there are many others that don't. You can't judge the value of all LCDs based on just one manufacturer.

In the scenario of having a TV opposite a window bay, one of these other TV's would be far more suitable than either the reflective Samsung's or a Plasma.

While I prefer the picture quality of the Panasonic Plasmas, I wouldn't touch one with a barge pole due to the flickering. I could never go back to a TV/ monitor with flicker, it wrecks my eyes.
