 Beware of Samsung TV's July 27, 2010
M W
I have owned this TV for approximately two years and it will no longer turn on. If you do a search on Samsung LCD TV's, you will see that others are having the exact same problem. The problem is with the capacitors. Samsung knows this is a problem and will charge you shipping plus a service fee of $50 and tell you that they will fix it for free and refund the $50 IF it is determined that the capacitors really are the problem. The problem with that is that they can tell you pretty much anything they want once they receive your TV and you aren't there to verify or don't know enough about electronics. I bought TWO Samsung TV's the same year, 2008.....I'll never buy another one of their TV's again. I'll also never rely on Consumer Reports product reviews again either.
 Great value and very easy to use... for the most part. November 17, 2009

We have been using this TV in my daughter's room for over a year now without any problems at all. We got my 3 year-old this TV because we didn't want the worry of her potentially pulling her former, heavy 19" tube-television onto herself. Aside from the fact that this TV is light weight and thus very portable (and non-life threatening :), it is very easy to use as she turns it on/off by herself.
The only criticism is that there are no actual buttons, in the traditional sense, on the TV itself. There are the symbols for Power, Volume, Ch., etc. and when you touch the symbols, they perform the function. Easy enough to do but they should be back-lit. Without the lights on, it's very hard to find any function except for the on/off button which is the first one from the bottom up.
After months of my daughter mixing the remote with her toys, my wife and I have developed the motor skills to just "know" where to touch the TV now to perform whatever function we happen to need. But it was a bit of a nuissance in the beginning.
We currently have it connected to our Comcast cable box and a DVD player. The cable is non-HD and connected via a coaxial cable and the image looks great, not grainy or pixelated. The DVD player is non-high def. but connected with the 5 component cables as if it were high def. and the image quality is very sharp.
I uploaded pictures of the buttons and screen images of cable and DVD.

Ideal for DORM as computer monitor & TV save space with Excellent picture and best surround sound built in such a small size so I replaced 32" VIZIO in Living room to 32 Samsung like this one and same great picture on HDMI and I use to use external JVC surround Sound system because Vizio wasn't powerful enough which is not needed with Samsung!
Thanks for checking reviews smart buyers.

Great tv for the price. No need to buy a mount as the tv's platform swivels for easy wall mounting. Great tv for a bedroom.

I think this TV was a great buy for my bedroom. I do not see the halo that someone described. I also can go into the menu and bring up the sleep timer using my remote and I don't find that difficult at all. I was not aware about the base being able to mount to the wall and so that was a nice "Freebee!" The base mounted very nicely to the enclosed brackets and so I have a TV that can be used in the bedroom and I can carry to another room if necessary very easily.
As for the picture and sound. Both are just fine and I had no problem navigating the settings putting the picture size, sound equilizer and quality to my preferences. The TV auto programed very nicely and there were no channels that I needed to adjust. I do have cable FYI. I have two other LCD's also and I have no problems with this TV. Good Luck!
