I've heard better quality sound through a tin can on a string. So be prepared to buy a set of decent speakers if you choose this TV. Many reviews of this TV note the dreadfully inadequate speakers, and it is painfully true. Also expect to spend an excessive amount of time adjusting the picture for accurate color and brightness.
I use this unit for over the air broadcasts and I think Samsung has the best tuners out there. This is the second Samsung set I have purchased. This glossy black T.V. The only criticism I have is the sleep timer on the remote. One button operation would be an improvement. is not only attractive but has a great picture. Overall, a great T.V.
Good: Shipping, Sleek DesignFair: Picture qualityPoor: SoundThe sound quality was so poor that it over ruled anything good about this product.
We are using it with basic cable and the picture looks great. The setup could not have been easier, just connected the cables, turned it on and it found all the TV channels. The only disappointment was that this beautiful white TV (the 451 model) came with a black power cord. I bought this as a gift to replace both a CRT TV and CRT computer monitor. The resolution is only 768 (720p for TV) but it supports higher output from your PC if you need it. Fortunately it's a standard PC/monitor power cable and we were able to use the old beige cord from the CRT we were replacing to make it blend in better. It works great as both. Samsung should inlude a white power cord with the white model of this TV.
I have it wall-mounted with a $60 Peerless articulating mount. The base needs to be firmly attached with fasteners or else it would come off when the TV is lifted. Very nice image, no problem at all. The response to remote control is very fast. The VESA mounting spec made sure that the Peerless mount would have its holes aligned perfectly with the mounting holes on the TV.I see no weakness except the tiny speakers.
