Samsung LTN1785W 17-Inch LCD Flat-Panel TV

Samsung LTN1785W 17-Inch LCD Flat-Panel TV Review

After looking at comparable models from Sharp, Phillips, Sony, and others we settled on the Samsung LTN 1785W. It is sitting on a credenza in the breakfast nook off the kitchen and fits very nicely on the counter and under the china cabinets. The screen is plenty bright enough for full daylight viewing. This was important to us, as the area has a lot of natural light from windows and a skylight. The picture is very clear and sharp. The options available for picture, color and sound adjustment are simple and effective. I added the HDTV box yesterday and the added clarity is quite astounding. As noted in another review I would rate the sound quality as acceptable, but not outstanding. The Dolby 5.1 added with HDTV helps.

I note this set is list priced (currently) at about 9, but we got it for over 0 less by shopping around, then got 0 cable credit from Comcast and Samsung on a special offer. So, while initially pricey for a 17 inch set, the net cost was quite reasonable for this quality HDTV ready widescreen set.

Samsung LTN1785W 17-Inch LCD Flat-Panel TV Specifications

Designed for maximum quality and versatility, Samsung's widescreen LTN1785W thin-film-resistor LCD TV comes with an internal 181-channel NTSC TV tuner and external input jacks so you can hook up and view nearly any home-entertainment source, from an HDTV receiver to a DVD player, satellite system, gaming console, or other component.

Samsung PN58B550 58-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV

Samsung PN58B550 58-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV Review

I am a huge Samsung fan, this is my 3rd one in my house. The price is always competitive, but the quality seems to exceed the other brands I've had. This is an awesome TV. We have it in our living room about 15 feet away, still feels like a movie screen. It's a bit of a shock to get it out of the box and my neighbor had to help me lift it up on a tv stand.

The picture is fantastic, full 1080P and the 600hz refresh (60 hz actual, then dynamically accelerated) is great. No motion blur on sports, nice deep blacks when watching movies. I do not have a received, but with this TV it's not really necessary. 4 HDMI inputs are enough for all my gadgets, and it has digital sound output so I could use it with my stereo easily.

This was the easiest purchase I've made on amazon. TV does not have a very loud buzzing to me. I do hear a hum when it's not engaged on an input, but watching tv at normal level volume is fine, no buzz sound. I think if you place the magnet cores supplied on the cables, this does help. I'm going to get a Monster power conditioner for all my components anyhow, this should help alleviate the noise on the electrical lines.

Happy viewing, this TV is amazing for games, blu-ray, and regular HD TV viewing.

Samsung LN37C530F1F 37" Diag. Widescreen 1080pLCD HDTV

Samsung LN37C530F1F 37" Diag. Widescreen 1080pLCD HDTV Review

Samsung LN37C530F1F 37" Diag. Widescreen 1080pLCD HDTV Overview

Let's talk 1080p. You've probably heard about it. But do you know why it matters? Say you're watching a football game. Rather than looking at a green field you assume is grass, you'll actually see the blades of grass under the players' feet. If you're watching a nature documentary, you'll see every scale on an exotic fish's body or the wrinkles inside the wrinkles of an elephant's skin. That's why 1080p resolution is the best of the best. And the Samsung LN37C530F1F 37" diagonal widescreen TV supports it. It also has a Wide Color Enhancer to deliver the entire spectrum of color and luminance for rich, saturated images that pop. It has DSNe technology to deliver high-quality sound with more natural effects by reproducing stereo sound. And, it offers ConnectShare--a feature that lets you connect a thumb drive or digital camera quickly and easily for instant access to your media. From Samsung. With a TV that has a built-in high-definition tuner, HDTV may be received from broadcasting companies that transmit high-definition signals, or may require a subscription to a digital cable or satellite service to receive HDTV programming, where available. Contact your local cable or satellite provider for details and costs if you are interested in high-definition TV from your service provider.

Samsung LN46B550 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color

Samsung LN46B550 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color Review

I've had this TV for just under a week now and am very pleased with it. The picture is great. Set up and connections were easy and straight forward - it was up and running within 15 minutes. Easily connect to a Sony Blu-Ray player and older Sony Home Theater system. One note: if you use HDMI cable, some cable boxes require you go into thier settings and turn on the HDMI connection - otherwise you'll get a picture but no sound. Used Amazon's HDMI cables anb they work perfectly for a fraction of the cost. The Touch of Red is barely noticable. Pretty good non reflective screen that offers good viewing during the day - of course, it's amazing when it's dark. Reasonably good viewing angle for a LCD. The base seems pretty stable and is included.

Samsung LN32C450 32-Inch 720p 60 Hz LCD HDTV (Black)

Samsung LN32C450 32-Inch 720p 60 Hz LCD HDTV (Black) Review

After shopping for months at malls and big package stores, along with independant dealers, nobody could beat the price, along with the convenience offered by Amazon on a top notch product. Item was very carefully packed with instructions to set up written where it did not take a rocket scientist to read them. Picture is actually clearer than what was shown at the stores. The light weight of the tv helps when wanting to move around. The double warning label about being sure the tv is anchored to the wall or cabinet will prevent someone from just overlooking it and finding it in the floor when the dog or kids bump it. Overall a fine product that makes me very confident when I get ready for my "BIG SCREEN" tv.

Samsung LN32C450 32-Inch 720p 60 Hz LCD HDTV (Black) Feature

• 10Wx2 audio output
• Wide Color Enhancer
• ConnectShare Movie
• 3 HDMI (ver 1.3), HDMI-CEC

Samsung LN32C450 32-Inch 720p 60 Hz LCD HDTV (Black) Overview

Make the move to the smoothest LCD action ever. Samsung's LN32C450 LCD HDTV offers incredible color and rich clarity, all on a 32-inch screen. Add the power of Samsung's Wide Color Enhancer, for a picture that optimizes a given color's hue, resulting in more natural rendering of colors and lifelike action.
