- Not enough detail provided in the manual to understand the new digital services i.e. differentiating between how the digital tuner picks up standard channels, but not actual pick up a digital signal for new digital services

+ Superb picture. I compared side-by-side with an expensive Philips and Sony Bravia, the Samsung was the best picture and looked more aesthetically pleasing.
- None.
Best buy for the money, and then some.

Stuart, Birkenhead
+ Excellent product, and fits snugly into any corner of the room, or on the wall! I bought two of them! (One earlier than this one and slightly larger)
- Set-up far too complicated, and I still cannot find where to alter the picture brightness, even when I go into the menus, they are still complicated.

+ Looks stunning (anyone who sees it says so), Excellent value for money, Top brand, HD picture is beautiful, Great connectivity (HDMI, Component - though component is rubbbish, PC, 2 scarts..), Excellent swiel stand.
- Rubbish and ugly remote, Menus could be better, standard definition quality isnt great (though this is normal with HD TVs), Cant turn it off properly without unplugging it (Environmentally unfriendly!), gloosy surface shows dust. To be honest though all these "bad points" are minor, except for the remote.

+ Good contrast and sharp image on most channels. Nice radio, and takes over much of the need of a music system. Nice DVD feature. Easy to use menus on screen. Good style. Still haven't seen any to beat it at this size or smaller and would stay with this range for larger screens as well.
- As complex as a VCR. Need to be "computer" illerate to operate all it's features. For me I would rate it 9/10 but this was purchased for an OAP, in a retirement home & the tiny remote buttons are hard to use. The multiple menu, options and finding channels too complex. Freeview needed to get Ch5. On weak signals (ITV1, ITV2 etc) very poor performance. Some DVD playback grainy which is not noticed on the 22" computer CRT or 25" Sony Triton. Gets very hot, more than any in the shops where they have also been on all day - confined room perhaps to open shop.

+ Like the picture in picture facility.
- i prefer the headphones socket to be at the side of the tv rather than the back as it is hard to find.

+ Easy to set up, easy to use, excellent picture quality & good sound quality.
- You can only leave the set in standby mode, you cannot completly power the set down without switching it off at the wall. This is a strange feature in todays eco friendly world!

Colin, Stafford
+ Looks great, self set up is good. Picture quality on digital is very good.
- Sound volume is considerably lower on digital than analogue--so needs regular adjustment because:- the set is much more sensitive to signal quality than my old CRT set--we constatly lose the digital signal--7-10 times per evening. I appreciate this is not inherently the fault of the set, but until I arrange for Sky or a booster it is a very annoying problem.

+ A product well worth buying. Takes up very little space, easy to operate, quality of picture and sound good, looks good in our surroundings
- cant get some of the freeview programmes
26 Sep 2007
Richard, Aldridge
+ Superb design, good controls, good reputation
- If i had to say anything it is that colour contrast is hard to get just right, a built in test card would be good, but i suspect all TV's of this type are the same

Andt, Nottingham
+ A very stylish looking tv.Easy to set up.Good picture.
- If a bad point it would be sound,but not sure if tv or programme makers.
