    I’ve had this TV for about 3-4 months and have been nothing but happy with it. This was my first HD TV and was happy with what I saw, it’s great for watching movies and also a good TV to play video games on. The knock I have on this TV is the stock speakers it comes with, there just not that great, but there not horrorifyingly bad etheir. I just hooked up some PC speakers to them and sounds great, I used the headphone jack on the back of it. I read that other guys review and I don’t understand how you can ignore a great picture and price over something as little as a time zone issue, which has not happend to me. But whatever some people get more fused over differnet things then others I guess.

    Over all I’d highly recommend this TV to anyone that’s on a budget but’d still like a great looking TV.

    I bought a Samsung 46″ LCD TV last year and loved the picture quality, so this year when I looked to purchase a computer monitor I decided to check out Samsung again. Finally I settled for this unit (Samsung LN32B540 32″ 720p HDTV) at COSTCO for below $400 this past Thanksgiving weekend after I spent some time comparing its picture quality and price to similar products at both local COSTCO and Sam’s Club as well as in Amazon.com.

    Now I use this unit as both HDTV and my laptop’s extra monitor. The setup is really easy, and the auto time setting was indeed wrong as others stated here (it’s an hour faster), but the problem is easily fixed by using “manual” time setting. I didn’t notice this issue until I read about it here…

    After trying a few different video modes within Windows Control Panel, Display Settings, I was able to manually set the optimal resolution at 1360×768, and the text clarity, color, and size are just perfect. The 32″ size is big enough for me as both a HDTV and computer monitor in my home office. With one click on the remote I can switch the “Source” between “TV” and “PC”; I can move windows freely between my laptop screen and this unit with a mouse, which really helps my productivity when I work with multiple EXCEL files and web pages.

    Picture quality is not the best, but decent, when watching web TVs/videos, Netflix online movies, or DVDs using my laptop (my laptop has only a regular VGA video output). But for less than $400 I couldn’t ask for more.

    This unit fits my home office needs almost perfectly at a very reasonable price. I couldn’t be happier for this purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a two-in-one LCD TV and computer monitor combo!

    I got this TV less than 6 months ago. Luckily for me I was still under warranty. One year with Samsung and an additional year with Costco. One minute I had picture and sound, the next only sound. The Samsung technician agreed immediately it was an issue and told me I had to ship to their repair center in New Jersey. I still had the box so shipping was not a big deal. If I had not kept the box, it would have been very inconvenient.

    I don’t know if this is true but I read that the Samsung LCD HDTV has a well know problem of faulty video board which causes the picture to go out. I was planning on purchasing another Samsung TV but I’ll probably go with a Sony instead.

    When it came time to replace the finally failing 27 yr old Sony in the bedroom,I looked of course back at Sony and others.After much research, I settled on Samsung,Panasonic, and Sony 32″ sets.Each time I viewed the sets, the Panasonic and Samsung were the two favs. Side by side, the Samsung blew the Panasonic off the shelf with better blacks( though I’m sure the Panny plasmas would have been better) and color accruracy.Other purchase pushers were the better jack pack on the Samsung, more attractive design(love the clear/red lower panel) and it swivels on the stand.The set up was super easy and the reward has been hours of great picture.

    I’ve used this set for about 3 weeks now and done some really critical viewing with SD/HD cable as well as DVD playback. I have been very impressed with the picture quailty of the higher def sources and especially the 720 and 1080 pictures.Yeah I know it’s not really 1080 but watching NBC or CBS shows over the ABC(720) is an impressive difference.The picture simply pops with detail and color that is astounding. The DVD playback has also been a revelation and the blacks are I think rivaling the 36″ XBR Sony in the home theater.The depth of field is no doubt better. The STD def TV is fine and simply reminds one how much the source does matter.That would be why I just purchased a DVR to finally retire the VCR and then I can use the HDMI connections. The most obvious weakness of this set(along with most flat screens) has to be the weak sound quailty which I knew about and was OK for the bedroom( also connected it to a stereo for movies).

    What I would change are a few ergonomic issues. The remote feels great but is neither backlit or programmable ,real pain in a darkened bedroom.Going to another source cannot be directly accessed with one button but only thru a menu.The same is true for the sleep timer, a multibutton trek thru a menu, again not dark bedroom friendly.Oddly, while I love the turn on/off tone(reminds me of my Apple booting up), I wish I could lower it’s volume so the set coming on doesn’t disturb the sleeping partner.

    Overall, I am very very happy with this first non Sony TV in the house and will look forward to another Samsung if this gives equally great service.

    Since I don’t do a lot of TV watching (except football), I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on a TV, and since I do most of my TV watching in a small room, 32″ was plenty big for me. I have had great luck with my other Samsung HDTV, so I had no qualms about buying another one.

    I just got this, so I can’t comment on the longevity of the unit, but the picture quality is excellent. It only took a few seconds to set up, since all I needed to do was plug in the HDMI cable, put the batteries in the remote, and turn it on. No adjustments were needed. When I take the time to see what adjustments I can make, I will likely be even more pleased. The sound is good, but not great. However, when I hook it up to my stereo, it sounds awesome.
