- Some features, such as timer are buried behind a large number of menu's and sub menu's - Also text is extremely small on some menu's - Not for those with poor eyesight!

+ Super picture. Puts our main Samsung LCD TV in the lounge to shame. Excellent sound for such a small unit.

- Probably the most expensive 20" LCD TV on the market (it's in the same price range as other manufacturers 26" LCD TVs) but it is probably the best.

Mark, Oxford

+ A great picture with built in freeview. All the connections you would need from a small screen LCD. Quite a heavy RRP price but readily available at a considerable discount making this a great choice for a bedroom TV.

- None really. If I had to be picky I would say that the Freeview menus are not particularly fast to navigate and there is a very faint sound from the TV when it is off. Certainly nothing to stop this television being a superb all rounder.

Pedro, Isle Of Wight

+ Steady, clear picture on digital with excellent contrast and highlights. Sound fairly rich and detailed, but rather two-dimensional; needs external speakers for best effect. Good reception and clarity on digital radio stations ( a pleasant bonus when working and distraction of visuals not wanted). Appears to be soundly engineered - first set of this kind so nothing to compare with in terms of materials and durability. Sets up easily. Good to have 2 scarts and hdmi. Hope it will be worth the extra money!

- Rear a/v connections can be fiddly. Analogue picture can be slightly 'wet' and smeary, not great on sports. Menu not the easiest.
