Surper TV for less September 30, 2008 G. Fahan (Lake City, Iowa United States) Needed a TV for the kitchen and this works just fine. Cannot beat the price either.
Pretty good TV, but it has viewing problems September 23, 2008 Deborah K. Wright (Dallas, TX) This is a pretty good TV. It looks nice and has good features. The sounds is great. The delay time when changing channels is better than on my other flat-screen TV. The picture quality is very good -- that is when you are right in front of the TV. Once you go to the side or lower than the screen, the picture QUICKLY fades to black. I got this TV for my bathroom mounted it on the wall. I frequently cannot see the picture -- fortunately since I am not really watching TV for any length of time in the bathroom, it is not a huge issue for me. However, you want this for a bedroom, make sure you will be viewing from eye-level, directly to the front of the screen otherwise you may not be happy with this set.
Pretty decent but a little expensive, remote not so great August 30, 2008 Sebastian (San Jose, CA USA) I am pretty happy with this TV; I've had it for about 2 months. The TV takes up very little space and is lightweight--wall mounting is easy. The built-in speakers are pretty awful though. Sound quality is about the same as an iPhone's built-in speakers. br / br /Component video from a non-upconverting DVD player looks pretty good. The TV has one HDMI input. br / br /Perhaps my biggest disappointment was the remote: I had hoped the TV remote would be useful for controlling both the Samsung TV and a Samsung DVD player--but the remote doesn't have controls for anything other than the TV. This means either accepting life with two remotes or buying a separate universal remote. br / br /Strolling through Best Buy lately, I've seen comparable TVs for significantly less money. I'd recommend shopping around more than I did--I feel that I paid a little bit too much for what I got.
A little more $, but worth it! August 25, 2008 managerjohn (Madison, WI USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I recently got this little HDTV on sale at Target for about the same price as amazon is offering it right now. It is a little more expensive than some of the other brands in this size, but well worth it. br / br /It is solidly made and doesn't feel flimsy, like some of the cheaper 19" TVs I looked at did. The display is bright and crisp and in side by side comparisons, blew the competition away. The shiny black finish is very attractive also. br / br /I primarily use this as a computer monitor and gaming TV. It makes my PS3 games look fantastic! Virtually no setup; plug and play. The display looks great right out of the box with minimal tinkering. br / br /Overall, I have been very pleased with this HDTV.
Very good choice for small room July 6, 2008 1542 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a very good budget LCD TV for use in a kitchen, dorm room, small bedroom. 720p resolution is perfectly fine for a TV in this size (19"). The colors and picture look great with a bit of calibration (I found the default settings to be a bit too bright). There were enough A/V connections for me, although the audio from the built-in speakers is only adequate at best (but what else can one expect from a built-in audio system?). There are other models, both from Samsung and others, with more bells and whistles, but if you're looking for a good basic small LCD TV, this one is definitely worth considering.
