The picture is awesome. I also found it incredibly easy to set up. The big ergonomic remote is highly intuitive and easy to find, yet looks very techie. I bought this TV based on price and reputation and haven't been disappointed. I already have a 27 inch 720p HDTV and the difference is stunning. If I have a complaint it the internal speakers that don't push out enough sound, especially when viewing DVD's
They tried to offer me a lesser unit, but I refused. Next thing I know my order was cancelled and payment returned. I tried to get trnsfered to the owner, Mr. So I filed a complaint with the BBB in New York on this firm. Mendowitz, but kept getting transfered to diffrent sales people. I insisted on talking to the owner, and was told he would call me back. Purchased Lcd TV from Adorama Camera and was sent a shipping conformation date.
I told them that this was not my problem and that I expected the unit that I bought to be shipped as per the conformation I recieved. Then a couple days later, recieved a call from salesperson asking for a $175 dollars more for the model I purchased. They claimed Amazon made the error on the model price. Be wary of the bait and switch these guys try to get you to either pay more or accept a lesser unit.
This one is also just as high quality. However, I should have skipped the 1080p on a 32" and stuck with the 720. Great product - I have a 46" Samsung and love the TV. With this screen size you really can't tell the difference.
We also purchased an upscaling DVD player (Philips DVP 5992/37, Costco) to go with this TV until Blueray players drop in price. I can delete the duds using the TV remote, which is a big timesaver for me (and easier on my eyes than using my computer monitor). The combo works very well together.Pros:-Excellent picture quality-USB port for viewing (and very limited editing) of photos from a digital camera. The digital photo quality is just stunning when viewed on this TV. You can quickly create an onscreen slide show.-Automatically communicates with DVD player via HDMI connection (no hunting for the video channel)-Well written instruction manual -Flexibility (energy saving modes, ability to change image size,variety of audio modes)-Easy to read and understand remoteCons:-Lateral rotation of TV on stand is limited (maybe 45 degrees). Makes it hard to access the back of the TV if inside cabinetry.-Does not automatically display all photos in upright position, and you have to go three levels into a menu to do this.I use this TV to quickly screen photos from my digital camera by loading them through the USB port. We finally made the plunge and purchased this TV.
The picture quality is fantastic. We use it to watch TV and movies and to screen digital photos. We don't watch sports or use it for games. I purchased an HDMI cable through Amazon for connecting the DVD player to the TV, and saved a bundle by comparison to the local vendors.
Don't let anyone tell you that you can't tell the difference between a 720p and a 1080p in this size TV because you can.The HDTV programs are great. Digital programs are very good and SD programs are above average depending on the channel (can't wait for February).Blacks are deep, whites are bright and flesh tones are natural.There are more setting in the menue for picture and sound than any other HDTV I looked at.3 HDMI ports and all the other ports you could want in a TV this size including a USB port for showing pictures and firmware updates.The sound is only average but I have it in my bedroom. The LN-32A550 SAMSUNG is fantastic. If you are going to put it in a family room or living room you might consider adding speakers.Swival stand and backlit remote are great features.The simple piano black finish and lack of chrome make this TV look sleek and modern.
