Mostly because there are virtually no 24" LCD TV's out there. Also, most TV's this size come with 720 dp.this one has the 1080 like the big sets. I am very pleased with this TV. Very pleased with picture and sound.and value.
I have other Samsung monitors with this kind of power switch and they work very well. This to me is a manufacturing defect.- Speakers are loud enough for a quiet room but sound tinny.
On this TV it does not. You have to use the remote control to turn the TV on and OFF.
OK first let me say I purcahsed this to connect to my Dish/Panisonic DMR. There is no external speaker output asided from the side earplug but this can be used to connect a set of external speakers.- The only way to get the advertised Doulby digital is to use the fiberoptic output connector.
and to use as a monitor for a 2nd computer.It works perfect. It did not come with the HDMI cable so I had to dish out another $40 to connect the DMR to the TV but the quality is greate.As a monitor I run 1920x1200 and its as crisp as my other 24" Samsung monitors I use on my main computer system.I have used the VGA on the TV to connect a lap top and it looked good as well.Cons:- The Front Power switch just does not work.
This means you have to have a very expensive speaker/amp system.- No Picture in a picture- No Svid or NTSC inputs.- The standard stereo input is share by both the PC and DCI vid input.- No rear mount screws for alternative mounting optionsPros- Each input has its own video adjustments.- Great picture on both TV and monitor modes- Many zoom/picture modes at the touch of a button on the remote- One of the brightest monitors I have ever used.- Stand tilts and swivles- 2 HDMI inputs as well as Componet, DVI and VGA inputs- Very good veiwing angles and good contrast ratio- Sleep TimerI have not had the chance to use the Tuner in the TV as I am in the basement and use it with my Dish/DMR.
it is easy enough to work, and when you turn it off and on it makes this wonderful beeping sound. later, if i get a better pc i will probably use it as a monitor too. using it as a tv for my ps3 at the moment. works fine, and is rather large for the price, but not huge by any means. the power switch is on the tv itself, but it is one of those buttonless ones (like the ps3), and i have had some trouble switching it off this way, so i wouldn't lose the remote if i were you.
I have never own a TV-Monitor this good. I was so pleased with Samsungs Touch of color TV-Monitor that I bought 2 of them.Excellent color picture,,, love the zoom features. Love it,,,
It's a little distracting when I'm watching videos with black bars. I'm not sure if it's with all panels but I have a pretty huge backlight bleed on the bottom of the screen. Input lag is fairly high for a TN panel, my test can be found here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php.p=1033092928#post1033092928I have my PS2 hooked up to the monitor through component and it looks very nice. Excellent LCD with a great amount of connections. The viewing angle is pretty bad, but it's expected for this panel. I have not tried out the HDMI or the TV tuner, but a quick search on youtube will show you that the monitor can handle it nicely.Overall I'am very happy with this monitor. Color looks good for a TN based panel. If you don't need the extra connections, then the T240 will suite your needs for a $100 less.
