 High Praise for this TV |
| Review Date: June 9, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Howard, |
I have traditionally been a fan of the Sharp, or Sony TV's, however, I was looking for a TV to fit in a cabinet in my bedroom. I wanted to get the largest one that would fit my space restrictions. The Samsungs, in general, seem to sit lower on their stands than most other brands and really provided the only 32 inch option that would fit my height restrictions. I sure am glad this was the case.
This TV is wonderful. The best part is the picture. It just looks great. The swivel stand is a very nice touch too. I hadn't been looking for it, but it is quite useful as the TV is not directly in front of the bed. The settings and adjustments available are plentiful and adequate. The menus to access them are clean and intuitive.
Another wonderful feature is the energy saving modes. One can set varying levels of energy saving which controls the intensity / brightness of the light for lower power consumption. There is even an auto mode that will adjust the intensity based on what is currently on the screen. This is perfect for the bedroom. When it is late and I am starting to fall asleep I don't like the TV as bright. Energy saving mode is perfect for this and it saves power.
Another feature that I have been wanting in a TV and didn't have until now is a volume moderator. The TV will increase or lower volume automatically to make up for varying source volumes.
The TV seems performant. I haven't had a chance to plug my gaming laptop into one of the 4 HDMI inputs, but with heavy action scenes on TV I haven't seen any ghosting of images. Blacks look black and colors are sharp. No noticable artifacts of any kind.
All in all I am very happy with the purchase. |

| You know all the usual things--terrific hi-def picture, handsome black-framed screen with a slice of red on the bottom horizontal edge, good range of movement left and right. But here's the best part: for someone who didn't know the difference between BluTooth and BluRay, hooking up the auxiliaries was a color-coded breeze. A tangential benefit: the delivery person was careful about unpacking and setting up the set and helpful about explaining its use. |

| One of the best televisions on the market. This tv has a crystal clear picture and sits well on my tv stand. With 70,000 to 1 contrast ratio, the picture is life like. When the picture becomes blurry or distorted that is not the fault of the tv, but rather your placement of the tv in your home. Blu ray looks amazing on here. It doesen't get any more relestic then this. Samsung is the best brand for televisions and you get a lot for your money. If your a gamer or just enjoy a great picture this is the tv for you. This television has great performance for its value and blows any Sony television away. I have this tv in my room and is just the right size. I have it hooked up to my home theater system and sounds like your in the movies. |
Quite impressed with this television.

I'm very pleased with this TV. The HD picture is top notch. The standard def picture is just OK, but that's as good as you can expect with a standard signal. The set itself is also very nice looking, though I must say I don't really see this red "touch of color" that Samsung claims. That's not really a big deal to me though. I spent about a week adjusting all the picture settings to get things just right. Maybe I'm just picky, but it was nice having all the different picture settings on this tv so I could dial it in just the way I want it so the picture looks good in both a lighted and dark room.
The speakers also sound very good. I have read a few other reviews on other Samsung models that complain about the audio quality, but I was quite impressed with the sound I was able to get out of the TV speakers after a little fine tuning with the equalizer.
I bought this straight from Amazon with free shipping. Everything went smoothly. The delivery guy brought the set in the house and just opened up the box to make sure it wasn't damaged. He didn't plug it in to see if it would turn on though. Luckily it turned on and worked fine once I assembled the stand. |

| This is my second samsung TV purchase, I am just as happy with this one as my previous purchase. Samsung is the best LCD you can buy, and you cannot beat the price on this one. The picture is amazing, better than any HDTV I have seen and I have had a few (Toshiba, Phillips).I actually sold my Toshiba so I could buy this Samsung....My wife thinks I am crazy, but it was worth it, especially for the price. The design is also great, light weight and very sleek, the TOC is a nice added feature. Amazon is also great, TV shipped quickly and it was free, even the delivery person commented on how good Amazon is as a seller. Have been shopping with amazon for almost a year, best prices, excellent delivery(free most of time)and products in one piece. Highly recommend this TV and all Samsung TV's to anyone. |

This TV was to replace an older Sharp LCD and it is beyond comparison better. I'm especially impressed with the contrast ratio. It was delivered ahead of time and the deilvery guy asked me to turn it on before he left to make sure it worked OK. This was not the added "white glove" delevery, but the standard for this TV.
When I need another TV, I'll look at Sansung 1st. |
Good TV, Good Delivery, Good Going!

| I spent a few weeks reviewing many name brands for quality, price and value. It kept coming back to Samsung and after more thought, I went with this model: LN32B550 for the 32-inch size and the high quality resolution. You'll want to check recommendations for viewing distance and TV size. It's also a personal preference. I buy many items through Amazon.com and like that I'm advised when items saved in my cart have price changes. This is also why I trust my purchases thru Amazon - My order was promised for delivery on July 6 and it was delivered on July 1. The shipping company even called me to make sure this early delivery would be ok with me. Of course! I installed it myself, screwed the stand to the TV, plugged in the cable connection and followed the easy directions on the screen. It was easy, even for me. I highly recommend this model to you. Thank you. Jerry |

| I really like this TV. It has great picture, the full 1080p and it has an awesome contrast ratio at 70,000:1. Instead of having buttons on the TV, the controls are touch, located on the bottom right hand side of the TV. Blu-Ray players work well with this TV also. |

| After spending many hours looking at the various manufacturers' televisions, Samsung really caught my attention. The model codes even tell you when it was made. needless to say, Amazon had the best price with free shipping. The TV was delivered and unboxed to be sure it was perfect. I am very pleased. Thank you. |
