Samsung LN32B460 32Inch 720p LCD HDTV

Amazing TV
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is my first HDtv and was not expecting the difference to be so noticeable. Just watching the HD channels on cable you can easily see the difference in sharpness and contrast. This is not just for sports but everything. If you have a PS3, this is a must. Has made me go back to play old games just because they look so beautiful.

Warning.. Out of the box the settings are not quite optimal, and it does make standard digital broadcasts look pretty bad, but it definitely benefited from calibrating. You can either search for someone else’s settings on google or use a calibration device.

Great little LCD TV when you don’t want to break the bank and don’t need more than 720p HD. Hard to beat the performance for the price. It’s our 2nd Samsung, the first being a 650 Series w/ a few more bells and whistles. No complaints with either.

We’ve only had the TV for a few weeks but so far it has performed beautifully. Excellent picture and good sound. We particularly like the feature that allows the screen to be filled regardless of the aspect ratio of the original signal or show. We also give high marks to the audio and vidio setting choices available. Regardless of the room lighting, from dark to sun lit, it is simple to adjust the picture for perfect viewing. Setup was also very simple. We connected set to satelite input, plugged it in and turned it on and everything else was setup automatically.

I had the previous model of this for a couple of months until it got stolen. Thanks to insurance – got the updated model! I actually like it better- the remote is easier to use and setup was even more of a breeze. I’m not tech savvy at all and didn’t want a bigger tv so this is perfect for my needs, and when looking at the picture quality versus some other LCDs, Samsung is definitely on top!

Good value

We bought this TV more than 1 year ago. It is still going strong, it has a fairly good picture and was easy to connect with our Dish network and DVD. We use it as a second TV.

A miserable experience

My 32 inch Samsung LCD was great for five months then died a spectacular death. While watching it one day, a huge spark arced out of the top of the TV, and it was absolutely dead. That was the start of my trouble as warranty service was horrendous. I made nearly two dozen phone calls to Samsung, their warranty service contractor and the various technicians. Scheduled service visits would result in no one showing up. It took nearly a month and a half to get replacement parts installed. I’ll never buy a Samsung product again.

Nice TV

I bought this TV last week. Compare to old 450 model, you can get more contrast ratio and the price even cheaper. Picture and sound quality are great on HD channels, setup is easy, and delivery is on time. However,you need to consider that the deliver only schedule on Monday to Friday between 11:00am-3:00pm, somebody has to be home to sign. Therefore, I have to take a day off on weekday to wait. For get less $100 dollars cheaper than a local store price, you need to waste a whole workday and wait about a week to get it, is that worth it?

terrific buy

Great TV for the price. Bought for a graduation gift and it has been great. The 720p resolution is more than plenty for this size TV.

This is my third Samsung flat screen TV. Also have a 61″ projection and 19″ LCD. Samsung’s picture quality is superb, don’t worry that it’s not a 1080P unless you’re going to use it as a computer monitor. The base is well weighted and swivels. The sound quality is average, would recommmend hooking up to a home stereo.

I will only say this once. This is an awesome 32″ LCD tv for the money by far! I own a Samsung LN52A650 so call me bias but I will never regret purchasing this 720p LN32B460. The picture almost looks as good as my 52″1080P. The sound quality is very impressive just coming out of the TV.

Its a perfect LCD TV for the bedroom. My wife loves it and Im happy she does because now I can watch all my sports on the 52″ and she has her 32″ all to her self! LOL!!

Sony eat your heart out! No Joke!

Installation was a snap and I can watch TV without my glasses as this TV is bigger than the Old Tube model.

This is my second Samsung HDTV and it’s outstanding. This model includes a QAM turner which I didn’t know much about until I did some research. If you have cable, the QAM tuner allows you to receive an HD signal from the major networks without the need for a special cablebox. I can simply plug in the cable and receive most of my cable channels (but not the digital channels) and the HD signals for CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX and PBS without a box. I was amazed.

Great Customer Service
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Just got this — for FREE from Samsung. Let me explain. One year ago I bought the 330 series version of TV. I loved the picture and feaures, but it had a recurring sound problem that could not be fixed. Twice I put in a repair tag for the sound going garbbled, and twice Samsung dispatched a repair service (all the way from RI to MA)within a few days. They changed the mother board, among other repair attempts, but nothing worked for long. With my third repair ticket, without me asking, a Samsung rep phoned me the next day and offered a free replacement. (This was after a different rep had offered to extend the warranty for an additional six months, or until it was fixed.) A week later it was delivered to my door. And to my surprise, they gave me this new 460 series instead of the lower 300 model. Sure, it was a pain that my first TV was a lemon. But these are machines. There is NO manufaturer that produces flawless electronics always and forever. That’s life. Nice to know that if it happens to your Samsung, you can expect exceptional customer service. There are reviews here saying Samsung customer service “sucks.” That was certainly not my experience; they were always courteous, helpful, professional, and responsive. Oh, and this 460 is WONDERFUL, and noticably better than my 300 series.

Great TV!

I’ve had this TV for a month, and it is a great TV! The picture quality is excellent, the colors are spot on, and with the high dynamic contrast ratio the picture is bright. The base was easy to attach, and installation and setup were easy. I checked that the sound worked, but then I turned it down and use my home entertainment system, so I have no comment about the sound quality.

Samsung Rules!!!!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I purchased this TV (Samsung LN32B460) as well as a Sony Bravia within a month of each other and boy do I wish I purchased the Samsung first as I’d have two Samsungs now instead of the Sony Bravia. Everyone said that Sony and Samsung were the best, but in my opinion, Samsung blows Sony away in picture quality and sound quality. I realize that Sony probably has some nice higher end sets, but they are sure lacking in the 32″ lower/mid range of sets. Go with the Samsung, you won’t be disappointed!! Oh, and by the way, Amazon is the only way to buy it. The price was very competitive, if not better than the usual suspects and the delivery was quick and professional (they even called to confirm a delivery time!!).Anyway, I hope this review is helpful to those “on the fence” between Sony and Samsung as I was. Good Luck!

Picture quality simply amazing

The Samsing LCDHD 32″ TV has a great picture and sound quality. This tv also has the sleep timer that others’ do not. I enjoy the surround sound currently connected to my stereo, Watching Animal Planet, National Geographic and Discovery channels brings this tv to life. My dog now actually watches and understands what she is watching.

TV Not Suitable for Large Viewing Audience
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I purchased this TV 1 month ago to replace a Sony Trinitron 32″ TV I have had for 20 years. It was still working and had the most beautiful picture! I am satisfied with this TV, but my main reason for rating this item low is because of the washed out look at off angle viewing. This TV has an awesome picture if you are sitting right in front of the TV. Stand off even a foot and it washes out immediately.

PROS: No sound problems; good price, easy set up

CONS: Washed out off angle viewing, lag time on start up

If I had known about the off angle viewing problem I would not have purchased this TV for my living room, maybe for my bedroom. When you have company only 1 person is getting the incredible picture that this TV does have. I also find it amazing that only 1 other reviewer mentioned this problem. But once again, for the price, with the Blu Ray DVD player and free shipping, it was a decent purchase for a bedroom (maybe). Oh and I did not get white glove service, they did unpack the TV and plug it in and left me with the clean up mess and hook up to do.

Buyer Beware, Pathetic Service
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
I purchased my LN32B460 model in July 2009. Everything was working fine , good picture as many reviews stated. I have no complaints about the set when it is working. This morning the power blink off for about 30 seconds and then came back on. Everything in the house came back on. Tried to turn TV on about and hour later and discovered that I had no power to the TV. Checked out receptacles and everything was fine. Called Samsung and was told that I would have to ship the TV to their service center. I’ve had the set for five month and no longer have the original box. I have no way to pack this thing up and ship to them. What a hassel. I offered to pay for the service call and they were still no help. I am so frusrtated with Samsung I could scream. This is the second Samsung I have purchased this year. I bought a 52″ back in February and had to have the motherboard replaced in that unit. So, just wanted to say, “Buyer Beware”,. These sets are great when they are wotking. From my experience, I am convinced that you will have a problem at some point in time. So save your original shipping carton because you will need it later. Don’t expect much help from the Samsung service dept. They are pathetic. Samsung has lost a customer for life. There are many other quality brands out there to chose from. I would recomend that you check out the service deptartments before making your choice on a set.

Not bad for under $500

For the price this is a nice tv. I have a 1080p Samsung and there is a difference in picture quality compared to this 720p. The colors are brighter and crisper in the 1080p, but the picture is ok in 720p.The only problem is you must look at picture straight on, because from side angle you see a picture but it has very little color. This tv is made for a small bedroom, because factory sound is not to loud

So far, So good.

We’ve had this new tv for a month now, and have had no problems with it. I doubt we’ve tested most of its features because it is summer and there has been less watching, less Wii, but with some vacation time coming up, we’ll test it out.

Best TV i’ve Every Had!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This TV is sooo much better than the Samsung ln40a550 television i had before I purchased from Amazon. I am Very Happy with this Television. I bought it on Monday and the Television was delivered that Friday. Eventhough the TV is 720p it does a great job of standard definition. And I even found that my local cable company offers a few 1080i channels (which look absolutely fantasic! Overall i am VERY VERY happy with the TV.

Pros-

great picture

video games(xbox360) look awesome!

Cable (standard and High Def) look great!

Easy PC hookup

On/Off/Volume/Source buttons are more detailed and easier to use. (Brail-like buttons)

I like the side that the component box is on/ easy access to hdmi/component

Great Bang for the Buck!

Cons-

Volume is sort of shallow/sensitive.(speakers are in the back)

Setup was harder than needed to be.

The red tint is sort of difficult to see at the bottom of the screen.

Nothing Major.

Overall I love this TV, and after my last samsung’s screen was shattered (THESE SCREENS ARE VERY SENSITIVE PEOPLE) i was happy to find out that a 32 720 was all i needed for my small bedroom. I play alot of video games and watch alot of NBC HD on it and am really happy with the picture quality. And honestly the tv does a decent job with just standard (480i) definition/Better than most imo. Great TV, and def. worth the price I paid for it!

Believe it or not this is the fourth Samsung 32″ HD TV that I have purchased…two for my condo in Florida and two for my house in NY. I have never seen a better picture on any TV anywhere. They are all slightly different models since I bought them one at a time over a two year period, but all are equally fantastic. The price is good, delivery is free, but regrettably I had to pay sales tax on the two in NY. I am totally satisfied and recommend this HDTV without reservation.

Samsung shows again why Sony is no longer the De facto Brand
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This 32″ Samsung has a strong presentation in vivid colors and true blacks. It replaces a 32″ 720p Westinghouse and while it has served well the side by side comparison of the two prove to be little challenge for the elegant touch of color. I always manage to be demoing theses things on Sunday and the sport of golf is always a good barometer to test the color rendering of a TV.

Realistic green grass, accurate flesh tones and beautiful deep blue skies, a great example of color spread with no bleed over. I use the Dark Knight to test the blacks and the TV did a good job of presenting the different depths of black and where you might find a Sony blending the blacks together you can see separation of images giving depth to scenes in a very dark movie.

The one complaint might be that this TV isn’t 1080p but I have to tell you the difference between 720p and 1080p at the 32″ size is not going to be that noticeable. Don’t let that be a factor in your purchasing this TV. At one time I would go straight to the Sony brand and buy without hesitation, but Samsung not only offers a better product but also a greater value for the price.

amazing tv…

outside of some second thoughts on the SIZE of the tv (wishing i’d sprung for a 40″)…

this tv is near-perfect. clear, well-defined image, great design.

i compared it to others at the local best buy (sony, sharp, LG were in my sights).

went with this samsung, and am happy. (now if only tv SHOWS were better!)

I did a lot of shopping around for the set that I needed and could afford, money and space included. I am not disappointed with this choice. The picture is clear as a bell and the sound is very good. Had a little start when I turned it on the first time and nothing happened. Turns out, it takes a few seconds to ‘boot up’ and there is no familiar click when the power supply is activated.

LCD is a new technology for me and I’m still getting used to it. The newer broadcasts are breathtaking, but movies and shows shot a long time ago are worse than the 26″ analog TV I replaced. And, I like to watch old shows a lot. Also, pictures that contain fog, smoke, dust or fast action scenes have a tendency to pixallate. This is probably the biggest disappointment I have in the set. I’m not too sure if this is inherent to LCDs in general or this set. It might be that a set using a 24fps format would not have that problem.

The controls on the set are terrific. I can change from TV to DVD to VCR with a simple selection on the remote. The built in equalizer makes the sounds just what I want, or I can select from some preset formats. The screen lighting is perfect in day or night and also adjustable. There are customizable channels for the TV and a button on the remote for favorites (make sure the bottom right hand corner is in view of the remote, otherwise it wont see it).

Overall, I have replaced a 25 year old, 80 lb TV with a whole new generation of technology that is bigger, clearer and only weighs 35 lbs.

Excellent picture, better price

I have two large 1080p Samsung LCDs (46 and 55 inch). In this size (32 inch) or smaller, 720p is more than comparable to the larger screens running 1080p. In this size, it is a safe bet to purchase the 720p model and save the extra money. You and your friends will not be able to tell the difference.

How Did We Ever Do Without HDTV’ ?

If you’re old enough to remember what color did for b/w Tv, then you know what HD’ has done for today’s Tv. I think Samsung Is the front runner. Remember If you’re not buying an HD’ set over the size of 32″ screen, I don’t think you will need to spring for the 1080dpi over the 720dpi but If Ya’ want too, Go For It. In any case, you won’t go wrong with any of the new Samsung models. the only thing we have to wait and see now Is’ how long will the Tv last us.

Great HDTV for gaming!

I purchased this HDTV from Best Buy the other day and I’m could not be more happy about it. The picture quality is wonderful and even SD channels looks good. This is the perfect HDTV for avid gamers such as myself because there is no input lag or ghosting issues. The only complaint I have is assembling the stand. Make sure the screws are straight when screwing them in or else you are going to have a hard time. Also, the panel MUST be upright when screwing it to the stand. I know you might be tempted to lay it flat but doing so WILL make the HDTV off center. Assembling aside, Samsung has put together a quality HDTV for a pretty good price. Do not hesitate!

Utterly Dissatisfied

I purchased a Samsung 32″ HDTV and had to have it repaired at the end of the warranty period when a capacitor or voltage transformer started to make a high-pitched whine that kept getting worse. That was OK. Now at 18 months after purchase the main board goes bad and there is no color and only grainy black and white. Repairs will cost more than a new TV. This is unacceptable quality control. Never another Samsung!

The delivery came a day later than Amazon’s website claimed (I bought during one of those buy on day X to guarantee delivery on day Y deals), but that wasn’t a big deal.

Overall the TV is nice. As other reviews mentioned, the color needs lots of adjusting at start up and there’s a lag every time the TV is turned on, but neither of these is a major drawback. As advertised, there are lots of a/v ports, the picture quality for TV shows is great at smaller sizes (zoom isn’t very crisp), although it’s excellent when playing DVDs at full screen.

Read the review on the Samsung LN32A450 model and it all applies to this new model, only it is BETTER!

Samsung continues to be the BENCHMARK!

Better than Sony
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I originally purchased a Sony KDL-325000 which I returned due to my dissatisfaction with its handling of SD signals, and the poor whites which I never could adjust to look accurate. This Samsung looks much better displaying standard definition broadcasts and, with its greater contrast ratio, has much better shadow detail than the Sony. The Samsung’s whites are far superior and it even has deeper blacks, typically a Sony strong suit.

Unfortunately there are no free lunches. Another reviewer mentioned, and I agree, this tv has a problem displaying reds. After spending literally hours adjusting the picture controls using the AVIA test dvd, I still wasn’t able to obtain accurate color and hue using the blue tinted filter. Subjectively the Samsung’s colors look excellent, except that bright reds can sometimes appear as more of a darker, maroon color. Anyway, the effect is relatively mild and not nearly as distracting as the Sony’s grayish whites.

Overall, I am quite pleased with the Samsung and plan to keep it. Just make sure if you purchase one of these sets to turn down the back light, which even in the “standard” and “movie” modes is much too high. I obtained the best picture with the backlight turned down to “3″. Avoid the “dynamic” setting if you have any pretension at all of obtaining an accurate picture.

So happy I bought this TV
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This TV replaced a 32″ CRT Sony that was a few years old. I bought this TV when the Amazon price was $439.00 (December 16, 2009). I did pay WA sales tax of $36.01. I hate paying sales tax when ordering online, don’t you? I selected free shipping and received it on December 18th. I was surprised by how quickly I received it.

I spent a month reading reviews of TVs and even made a master list where I used the process of elimination to figure out which TV brand I wanted (OCD). I was tempted to get a Vizio but I read too many negative reviews of their TVs. Samsung has the best overall quality and customer service based on the BBB website and customer reviews. I would’ve gotten a 1080p 32″ TV but, all of the knowledgeable people I spoke with online told me that there would be no noticeable difference at 32″ size with 1080p. They said it’s not worth it until you get to 42″ size. I would research that aspect before you make an LCD TV purchase.

The box arrived in near mint condition. There was a slight indent in the box but there was no damage to the TV. I’m sure that I’m noticing too much but I actually was really happy there was a handle on top of the box. That really makes moving it in the future a breeze. The TV is aesthetically pleasing, very sleek and modern looking.

Setting up the TV is extremely easy. I didn’t hang the TV up, I just put it on its stand. I plugged in my Comcast HD cable box via HDMI, hooked up the DVD player, and plugged in the TV. I popped in my “Aliens” DVD and the picture looked really crisp and clean.

I can’t speak about pixels and all the other technical aspects of the TV. I just know that the picture is really good. Perhaps since I’ve had a CRT all my life I’m too impressed with the picture? The settings were a bit overwhelming to me though. I might buy a calibration disc to adjust the picture settings.

I would absolutely recommend this TV. I’m so glad I listened to the reviewers at Amazon and I’m glad they posted helpful and insightful information about the TV.

Old Lady’s Delight
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This purchase was based on 1)the need to meet the June 12th ‘update’ deadline (my previous set had 20 years on it); and 2) the reviews offered by previous purchasers. I live alone, am (kindly phrased) ‘elderly’, and totally lacking in any kind of ‘mechanical aptitude’. As a result, the box ’sat’ unopened until 12:30 p.m. on the 12th – and I had no alternative. The set is very ‘lightweight’ as far as handling; I was able to follow the simple instructions on assembling the base and ‘installing’ the set — and just followed the written instructions/visual diagrams on connecting the antenna, the DVD and doing the ‘new’ channel scan. At this point, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase (but – plan to ‘review’ recent VHU/UHF indoor antenna purchases for better ’signal’ retrieval in my ‘deep woods’ residence). I don’t do ladders for roof installation anymore!

My first HDTV I purchased was a Westinghouse 32″, to which I based only on the low price; and paid dearly with the quality. Lesson learned. So after months of research, I finally decided with the Samsung LN32B460. Samsung has a good reputation and priced fairly. I read many reviews on the A series, and heard basically all good. I also see that many independent websites rate Samsung among the greatest.

Now several weeks of owning this TV, I am very impressed on how crisp and clear the picture is. HD broadcast of the Samsung purely blows Westinghouse out of the water; this TV is in another league of its own. The contrast ratio is 50,000:1, and really makes the difference. Sound quality seems about average, but makes it very easy to set up external speakers. The set up with my cable and sound system took less than 5 minutes. I would recommend this TV to anyone, and will stay with Samsung from here on.

So far, very good

Our old CRT TV flatlined today so we decided it was time to get a new widescreen format TV. I couldn’t even program our TiVo without a working TV and the college bowl games are coming up so time was of the essence. We have a standard def cable box and an analog only TiVo, so HD is not important to us, but everything in the stores these days is HD. I had narrowed it down to the Panasonic and the Samsung. The Panasonic was $50 cheaper and the reviews and Consumer reports ratings were almost identical on the models I could find. When I saw that Best Buy and Amazon had virtually identical prices ($2 difference), I decided to go pick one up today rather than wait for shipping and installation from Amazon. I went there and they had the Panasonic I wanted on display, but none in stock. I started to go to another store that had them in stock, but the manager showed me this Samsung and offered to match the price of the Panasonic. We have a small Samsung in our kitchen and it’s worked fine for a year now, so after testing the sound on this one and verifying that it looked good from different angles, I bought this one. It was a snap to install and my son helped me haul our big old CRT TV back to Best Buy for free recycling. The analog picture is only average, but that’s to be expected; I put in a DVD and checked and I’m very happy with the digital picture and the sound. I love Amazon and especially its service, but you may want to consider doing what I did to get a better price. If any problems pop up with this one, I’ll edit this review.

I’ve had this TV for about month or so now and I am very pleased with it. The picture looks fantastic and has no issues with viewing angles. The sound is fine; obviously if you want great sound you should expect to have a separate system for that. I have a PS3 connected to it and the games look awesome… I can’t wait to try a Blu-Ray movie. All said and done I am very happy with this Samsung.

A Very Nice HDTV For The Price

I was looking to find an LCD HDTV that was a good value, as I didn’t want to spend too much. This Samsung model fit the bill perfectly. I’ve had it a few months and it works great rendering video streamed from the Internet, Hulu, Netflix, etc. When I first connected the Mac Mini to it, the HDTV read “Adjusting…” and the picture came back and filled the screen completely with no edge lines, etc. Very nice! The speakers aren’t great on the TV, but there is an output to hook up external speakers if desired. Also, there are plenty of input options to cover most everything one might need. I do not regret this purchase and would recommend this product to others.

I bought this TV for my Dad. Easy to use controls and not a lot of what you don’t need. DTV easily connects and start up is fast.

Price is excellent, and the free shipping, free Blu-Ray player, and no tax makes it a best-buy. 4 stars, for a 4 stars class TV.

I read way too many reviews and settled on this one and it is all it is cracked up to be. A great picture. Keep in mind, as well, that if you are only sitting 4-5′ from the TV you only need 32″, despite everyone’s tendency to get 42″.

I strongly recommend checking out [...] guide to buying TVs. Very big point: 1080p is only worth it for BIG (i.e. over 50″) TVs. Plus DVDs, which have a very good resolution already, are only 420p.

Highly recommend this TV as a great value.

Product & Shipping

My cousin recommended this Samsung TV and also recommended purchasing it through Amazon because of the great prices and service. The picture is incredible and it has a very sleek design. It was so easy to setup and the delivery was top notch. I couldn’t be home on the day it was delivered so Pilot delivered it to work, opened it, plugged it in to make sure it worked and loaded it into the car for me. Amazing. With this type of quality and service, I will definitely purchase from Amazon again!

Fabulous Television, Amazingly Fine Delivery Service
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Yes, I agree with the other reviews so far that the 32-inch Samsung is simply the best TV of its size. Did extensive side-by-side viewings before buying it, and it worked and looked perfect right out of the box.

Speaking of “right out of the box,” why doesn’t Amazon mention the outstanding delivery service by Pilot Freight? The unit was promised in four days, they called and asked if they could deliver it in three. They had two people bring it in, unpack it and set it up, plug the set into the cable box and plug the DVD player into the set, turn everything on and verify that it all worked. They showed me how to use the control, cleaned up everything and removed all of the packing and clutter. Great job, far better than expected. Both the set and the unexpected white glove delivery service are superb.

This LCD HDTV is an outstanding set. The picture and sound quality is astounding. No need to pay extra bucks for 1080p when you can save with this 720. Excellent Picture!

samsung is amazing
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
this model is from 2009. fairly new model that got touched up. at $552 it is a pretty good deal for such a high end television. Once you get the tv you will be happy you spent a little more and did not get a vizio. 50:000 contrast ratio is something you won’t come across a lot in similar competitors. when you see it in person you can see that the color is VERY vivid and lively.

a bonus if you play video games on the 360 or ps3 (like me) the game mode puts any fear of “hdtv lag” away. as a gamer i’ve played on new hdtvs where the hdtv affected the controls of the game (i.e. lag). this is often caused by down/up scaling the signal must be put through before getting to the set resolution. most games are designed for 720p.

And to those thinking you can spend a little bit more and get a 1080p… you can barely notice any difference. The screen is only a 32″. The difference is slightly noticeable on the bigger size tvs like the 52″.

Nice Looking But Problem Already?

TV arrived delivered from CEVA in perfect condition. However, when I plugged it in, there’s a high pitched buzzing sound. When I unplug, it is not there. Anyone else had this issue? I will be calling Samsung to report and ask for options. I’ll review my rating afterwards.

**Update ao 5-29-09: Called Samsung and was told a tech would come for in-home servicing. Called service company to schedule the appt. but was told I would have to mail it in and it could take up to 21 days for servicing and return. I called Amazon Customer Service and they are sending me a new unit and the delivery people will pick up the defective unit and take it back. I am much more satisfied with Amazon’s swift resolution than Samsung and their vendor servicing through CVE. Apparently, any sets under 37 inches must be mailed to their facility for servicing. The only concession is that they will extend your warranty by 90 days but on the other hand, you’re out of the tv for almost a month! Amazon handled the transaction very well. Will update rating upon re-delivery.

Apparently, I’m the only person on earth who cares, but I specifically was looking for a 32″ LCD with a standard 1/8″ mini-jack headphone out connection. I like to listen to my TV with regular earbuds (the same ones that are used for MP3 players, etc.) Very few models, it turns out, have this feature any more, at least at the 32″ size. There were none at Costco, Walmart, or Target, albeit 5 models at Best Buy. This is evidently the best one of those 5 that DOES have such a connector. BTW, this particular model sells for [....] at Best Buy.

I read mountains of information before deciding on this TV…I am not a video-techno- know -it -all…I was just looking for a good price for a good tv….I decided first to get Samsung and then finally decided on this model.

I was thrilled with the quality of the tv…its features and the picture and the audio.

The delivery Was fast and professional; they called shortly before they delivered to make sure someone would be at home.

I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Beware of Poor Warranty Service
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
The set is excellent when it was working but warranty service is pathetic. 3 months old and it started to have a totally white screen upon start up. Filed a warranty claim online, pickup was prompt by a repair vendor that Samsung directed me to. That was 5 weeks ago with no end in sight. The authorized repair vendor keeps saying they are waiting for parts, every time it’s different and every time the part is special order from Samsung. Samsung 800# is useless, the escalation line has been down for a week, all you get is no help and a hang up. At this point, I really don’t think I’ll ever see the set again. Total frustration. Beware!

UPDATE: Over two months and still no answers. Samsung said they will replace the TV but no action yet. Samsung reps are very friendly, but the process clearly does not work efficiently. I liked the TV, if you are considering the set I would strongly recommend an extended service program. It’s too bad Samsung does not have their act together.

I recently purchased this for my upstairs bedroom to replace my old 32″ picture tube tv. All I can say is that I didn’t expect it to be such an amazing difference when watching tv and dvds in bed. I already have experience with the Samsung LCDs since I bought a 46″ for my living room last Christmas and I’m absolutely loving it.

Watching HD tv on this is incredible. Crystal clear. Watching DVDs is even better. I don’t even have a BluRay player, however, the quality of the images on this 32″ is quite amazing. For $439, I don’t believe there is a better value out there. Buy and enjoy!

Great TV! Would give it 10 stars if I could.
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
We’ve had this TV for 3 weeks, and it is great. We opted for the 720p based on the fact that we do not have or plan on getting a Blu-ray player and our cable TV is not broadcast in 1080p. We read reviews that the sound is iffy – this has not been a problem on ours. It sounds great, and the base is solid. The buttons are touch buttons on the front of the TV, and they are cool. This TV has easily accessible RCA cable input jacks on the side, and many more on the back. During the autoscan, it picked up many channels we didn’t even know we could get. 16×12 living room – 32″ is more than adequate.

This TV looks great. You do not need 1080p for a basic TV viewing experience.

Amazing!

First of all, FREE SHIPPING! You can’t beat that. Assembly is SIMPLE and the picture + sound quality couldn’t be any better. I have always wanted a new TV, but have put it off, put it off, put it off…

Now that TV is switching to digial, I had to decide – do I want a stupid worthless box or just get an updated TV.. I’m glad I just bought this TV instead. I don’t know how I’ve been watching TV on my former set. The size is just right!!! I wouldn’t want it any bigger than 32″. ALSO, I have a WII and it looks amazing. My brother has a LCD TV, but his Wii games don’t look as sharp and crips as they do on this TV. I love it and I’d buy it again if I had it to do all over. You won’t be dissapointed!

So far so good. Crisp picture, tv looks sleek. Easy to use right out of box. Only issue is was difficult to

figure how to delete channels. We also have a 26 inch Samsung LCD which we are 100% satisfied with and is easy

to delete channels, so this was a bit surprising. Eventually I figured it out on my own, but the instructions

were not very helpful and it wasn’t obvious from the remote.

Still, this is my 3rd Samsung product and am happy I have so little to complain about. I recommend without

reservation just be patient if you want to delete channels….

This is the first TV we have owned in 35 years! The Samsung is just what we wanted – not too big, but with excellent features. We fumble around alot with the remote and the cable remote – to be expected I guess. We have hooked up our video camera to the TV so as to preview the clips on our camera and that worked just fine.

No Picture-In-Picture! Very disappointing!

I bought this TV and everything was great, but then I discovered that this model lacks the Picture-In-Picture feature. What the heck is wrong with Samsung?!?! Today, PIP is a must! Without it, you’ll be the laughing stock in the neighborhood. Avoid this TV at all cost! Buy one with PIP! That feature is awesome and no TV should be without it! I’m returning this asap!

Picture is as good as it gets. Sound is bad, and I’m not too picky about internal speaker quality. The speakers buzz when there is any substantial bass resonance. I’m going to have to hook up external speakers. I initially gave this tv 5 stars before I realized the buzzing issue. I’d downgrade it if I could.

The TV arrived in perfect condition and it doesn’t look cheap in any way. While the TV may have looked perfect, as soon as it was plugged in it began exhibiting a strange behavior: the screen would go blank every few seconds. No self-fix was available and the TV must either be repaired (via Samsung Warranty) or returned to Amazon.

Note: Samsung will require you to drop-off or send in smaller-sized TVs such as 32-inchers. They will not send a technician to your home. On the brighter side, everyone at Samsung was fairly helpful and customer service seemed to have their act together.

The picture on this TV is very clear and the color is excellent. If you view it from much of an angle, however, the picture seems washed out. This is also true if strong daylight is hitting the screen. The sound could be better for a TV that is this size. Shipping on my order was very slow. Several days longer than they claimed it would be but I do live in a fairly remote area.

I’ve had this TV for a couple weeks now and the picture and sound are both superb. There is a firmware update and installing that was a breeze. The only issue I’ve had with it is that I haven’t been able to connect it with hdmi cables to my SciAm 8400HD cable box. There’s a consistent hdcp authentication error but I think it’s more the cable box’s fault, not the TV. Regardless, I highly recommend this TV

I am not an expert on electronics or anything. I wanted a good digital tv so I read as many reviews as I could to get some guidance. I wanted a plasma tv, but I felt my room is to brightly lit with sunlight, etc. This tv is good. It has a good looking picture. I mainly only watch cable. I do notice that animation (cartoon type shows) do not look good. The actual animation does not work–it looks pretty bad. That may be true on most sets like this. Overall, everything else looks good to me.

excellent value
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Had this for 3 weeks. Inputs: antenna (over 50 channels in SF peninsula), dvd (up-convert), mac (cables: dvi-hdmi + audio)

picture quality on all HD sources: excellent. i am particularly impressed with the dark details and dark blacks.

in terms of speed, i could detect some artifacts on some fast motion scenes that seems smoother on some plasmas (i don’t remember the models), but no worse than other LCD tvs as far as i can tell.

picture from over the air SD somewhat variable. sometimes highlights are blown out. on the other hand, some SD programming looks great. probably more due to variation in the source material and station signal setting choices.

one odd thing — in the beginning it seemed to me that in many scenes, peoples’ faces appeared flat and “pasty.” i played with the settings, especially with contrast, brightness, and sharpness, and it improved.

however, the phenomenon persisted in some cases. it seemed odd because other visuals in the same picture looked great – e.g. wood grain, fabric texture, even hair and freckles not on the face. upon reflection, i think it may be makeup. with the rest of the scene in such vivid detail, the makeup looks especially flat.

i like the multiple input ports, especially the side access. also, really use the swivel as i view it from 2 different parts of the room (about 60° apart) and the off-axis detail performance does degrade noticeably as compared to my old tube)

sound is good via the tv speakers. i haven’t integrated into my sound system, yet. there is a feature called SRS TrueSurround HD — i do use SRS software on my computer and like it quite a bit to optimize the sound for various sources and outputs. on the tv, i don’t have any control other than on or off. generally, i prefer it off for simple voice programming, and on for music – it provides an illusion of space and a warmer tonal quality.

one quibble: when scanning for channels, i don’t have the option to keep my existing channels intact (like i could with my RCA converter), so i have to manually add back my favorites. or am i just screwing this up? of course, this won’t matter much in a few days after all the stations switch over to their new frequencies.

overall, excellent set.

Wow! After a few months of owning, I still smile when i put this TV on.

I bought this TV a few months ago after reading the reviews and after considering some lower priced models. I decided to spend a little extra for this and I am so glad I did. This set is amazing. The things that stand out to me are:

- Excellent picture quality. In fact superior picture quality I should say. I compared my set to the set of my friends, and they comment on how clear and beautiful my picture quality looks.

- The asthetics of the set. It is a beauty.

- The responsiveness when changing the channel is great.

- Works great with a Samsung DVD. Automatically recognized it and sets up everything automatically. I can use the TV remote to control the Samsung DVD.

- Did a say a beauty.

- Great inputs and outputs. Can’t think of any additional input or output connection I would need.

My only negative thoughts are:

- It takes about 2-3 seconds when you hit the power button before it actually comes on. I think this may be typical for HDTV’s.

- The sound is not that loud when turned all the way up. I will hook it up to a receiver instead of using the TV speakers.

- I should have bought a larger screen size

Might as well get the best

After comparing to the 32 inch samsung from the 3 series below and to comparable lg 32 inch sets I made my decision and went with this. I couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking around and this is in your options, don’t waste your time spend a little extra for a tv you know you’ll be happy with.

Nice stand
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
The stand is very nice and is made of glass with beveled edges and has a dark amber/black inlay embedded in it.

Also, if you are a HDTV/QAM noobie like myself, and you have a digital cable subscription but the TV is not hooked up to a box, never fear, you can indeed view select digital channels with your TV. However, if when trying to auto program the channel list and the TV does not find anything using the “STD” choice, you may need to select the “HRC” or “IRC” choice for the TV to properly find digital channels depending on your cable provider.

Best of luck and enjoy your great TV.

My boyfriend chose this TV and had it shipped to my new apartemnt. It shipped on time, and was delivered in EXCELLENT condition- no dents or scratches on the box, which was very comforting.

the picture is incredible, I am not one to usually invest in HD, Blue-Ray and all of that, but the difference i have seen on this TV makes it worth every penny. I have no problem with glare- even though the TV room is filled with windows. The sound is great as well. I had no problems hooking it up, it was very simple, and not too heavy either.

Overall, i am more than happy with this purchase. It will be a TV that is with us for a long time.

I kept my fingers crossed about ordering a large TV over the Internet to be shipped, but Amazon had the best price so I did it., We have other Samsung TVs which we are happy with and this one is just as good as the others. Delivery was on schedule and without incident. The very friendly and courteous driver even brought the TV upstairs and took our old one down and out to the garage. Set-up was easy. The only thing I didn’t realize about the TV is that this model has no controls (buttons) and we must use the remote all the time. Picture is great and sound is okay for the bedroom. I highly recommend Samsung.

I got this for a second home with basic cable and was delighted to find it picked up HD channels with it’s own antenna thingy. Beautiful picture and free HD. It’s paying for itself. Can’t beat that. Made me sorry I bought a 52″ Sony last year that doesn’t have the same feature. I pay $15 extra for HD. Did I mention the beautiful picture and great sound. So far I haven’t found a problem although the channel lineup took a little learning (air/Cable).

Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I purchased this tv in June 2009 based on favorable reviews, value and amazing picture. However, within 5 weeks of purchase, I began to have major problems. Here is a summary of everything tv related I experienced.

After 5 weeks, the tv began to sporadically turn on when I pressed the power button, ie, it would take 10 tries to turn the tv on, then 20, then 30…then…

it wouldn’t turn on at all. Samsung told me it was a fairly common problem, and described it as an “internal batter problem.” Google “samsung tv problems power” and you will see what I am talking about.

I sent the tv in to the authorized third party repair center, CVE in Riverdale NJ. Repair was scheduled to take 5 days, followed by an additional 2 day period of testing to make sure the repair was completed. I received the tv about two weeks after they received it, and upon plugging it in to multiple outlets, the tv still did not work.

Samsung does give a warranty, which is limited to repairs (potentially multiple) until the unit is deemed unrepairable by the official third party repair center, CVE. As of now, I have sent the tv in a 2nd time, and the only explanation I have received from CVE and Samsung is that the unit was repaired and must have broken again in transit. However, it seems to me that the unit was not repaired and that the battle to exchange the old unit for a new tv (which does happen eventually) is the absolute last resort for Samsung, in lieu of a customer’s satisfaction with a product.

While the tv was great when it worked, and it appears that my case is an outlier, I did want to alert others of this potential (and frequent amongst Samsung tvs) problem.

Pretty good, but some Issues
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I recently bought this tv to replace my old 19 inch RCA tv. Keep in mind, the RCA still works great to this day, but I thought it was about time to upgrade.

Putting it Together:

This is the main problem I experienced with this tv. It came with 8 identical screws. The 4 that go into the tv went in fine, but the 4 that go into the stand did not fit. I used all my effort to turn them, but they would not go in. Either the screws were too big, or the holes in the stand were too small. I emailed Samsung customer support and they told me to buy new screws online. I was not pleased with this response. When you spend $500 plus on a name brand tv, you expect it to come with parts that actually fit together. I emailed them again and didn’t get a response. Finally I decided to go to the local hardware store. I got some screws which were a little smaller and they fit perfectly. So overall, this is something to keep in mind about this model.

TV Appearance:

The Samsung tv looks very nice from the outside. I was worried about the red tint being too much, but it is barely noticeable which is good. The tv looks all black unless you look closely at it from certain angles, then you can see a tint of red. The touch buttons and clear stand look very nice.

Picture:

The picture on this set is very clear. I tried it using antennae reception and cable, and it looks great on both. When I 1st turned on the tv, the picture was choppy, but I think it just had to warm up because it has been clean ever since. There are lots of options to adjust the picture, but the preset settings look fine.

Sound:

The sound is pretty good. I had to play around with the settings to find one I liked, but once I had it picked out, it sounded good.

Remote:

The remote is ok. It only took a couple minutes to figure out how to use all the buttons. Changing the channels is a bit slow compared to my old tv, but it’s not a big deal.

Features:

There are plenty of features on this tv, some are useful, some not so much. The energy savings modes probably wont be used because they dim the picture and I doubt most people want to sacrifice picture brightness to save on energy.

Amazon Service:

I purchased this tv from Amazon (there are other sellers on this site, but I ordered from Amazon). The 1st package that came was damaged during shipping. Not to worry, I was able to send it back for a replacement. Get this, I expected it to take another week for the replacement to show up, but it arrived within 24 hours of placing the order! How is that for good customer service!

Best 32″ TV I’ve found yet
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I bought 3 32″ tv’s all within about a month in a half with the intention of keeping just one of them. The 3 tv’s were this Samsung, a Phillips 32pfl3504d f7 and a Vizio WV32L. Ranking the 3 for image quality the Samsung wins by far followed by the Vizio and at the very bottom the Phillips. FYI the Phillips image is horrible especially the way it handles SD signals and even the HDMI input from a PC, it’s pixelated horribly.

Back to the Samsung though it’s slightly more expensive than other 32″ tv’s but I feel it was worth the extra cost. It’s build quality is much better than others I’ve seen.

Am enjoying viewing the new format (HDTV). The sound quality is good and the picture quality is almost too good. I can see the makeup and skin imperfections on people’s faces.

Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Beautiful picture. Attractive and sturdy.

This is “only” 720p (although it WILL accept a 1080P signal just fine) and not “120 Hz” but here are a few things to think about.

In 32″, the pixel density is higher than a 52″ at 1080p. Unless you use it as a computer monitor or sit very close, your eyes just can’t pick up the additional detail. “120 Hz” is a buzz word and it is true that faster is better in LCDs but you need to look deeper. A low quality panel that is “120 Hz” will not be satisfactory. On the other hand, a high quality 60 Hz panel will be more than sufficient. Not to say there are not high quality 120z panels but the cost will obviously be significantly more.

In my opinion, this is a very high quality panel and spending more is a waste for the vast majority of people. I paired this with the Panasonic BD60 and the results are phenomenal. Up-scaled DVDs look gorgeous and I really don’t think that you could tell the difference between Blu-ray from across the room (again, pixel density). Viewing angle is better than I expected, contrast is great, blacks are so black that you almost can’t tell the difference in a dark room between the black next to the frame and the frame itself. Screen is slightly matted so reflections are manageable. Verdict is still out on the sound, these speakers are better than I was expecting but have not had it long enough to be sure if they can stand on their own in all cases (loud movie action).

It seems like there is a feature slope in televisions that it is hard to know where to buy in at. I have to admit that even after ordering this unit, I was unsure if I should have forked out a little more. After experiencing this, however, I have absolutely no regrets. I think that in a 32″ it should be easy if you are able to separate yourself from the buzzword hype. Why pay for pixel density your eye literally cannot see? Even worse, why buy a “faster” panel that is poorer quality?

Great HDTV. I was looking for something to replace our mammoth 32 inch CRT. The tube went out in it and wanted somehing for our bedroom. I had seen this TV in various retailers and was impressed with it’s picture and sleek look. I’m not the type who was to have the latest 1080p with 240 hz refresh rates, etc. If you’re looking for a good quality, high value television, look no further. This thing is great. You might want to adjust some of the color modes to your distinct taste. For me, the “dynamic” mode was a bit too bright. I turned down the backlight and contrast, tweeked the sharpness, and now the picture looks great. So, bottom line, if you’re looking for you first HDTV, this isn’t a bad way to go. $552 with no tax and free shipping!! I was sold. BTW, you might want to let your spouse know you bought it in case you left out that little detail

Nice Tv but not quite has a few flaws!!!
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Ok I have been looking at the LN32B360 for months now. Walmart usually has it between 420.00-448.00, which isn’t bad. The Sony 32″ equivalant always runs $100.00 more than the Samsung. So, finally I go in there today to buy it and they jack up the price $50.00 more to $498.00 the same price as the Sony 32″ equivalant!!! So I try to tell a manger to give me the tv for the $450 it normally runs and he says no and to check online. I go online and the tv is the $448 it should be, but I have to order it online and wait to pick it up in the store!? Why can’t the darn price be the same online as in the store. I guess that makes too much sense! So Walmart didn’t get my cash. I considered Amazon, they do a good job emailing me tv offers as they can clearly see I have been browsing them. However, Amazon’s price is in stone, what you see on the screen is what it is! So I went to HHGregg electronics where I know they haggle a bit! They sold me the new model up LN32B460 for $462.64! Thats like $71.86 less than Amazon’s current $534.00. So you do the math. I feel I got a great deal.

Now onto the advantages of this tv. I like the 50,000:1 Contrast over the model I was going to get at 30,000:1

Response time is better at 6ms opposed to the previous model 8ms. Finally you gain a third hdmi over the previous model. Nice to have an extra one, but it’s silly to have it on the side of the tv. Who wants wires hanging out of thier tv’s side input? As for the Cons, there are a few. One is this touch of color crap, Samsung seems hell bent on making people get this. It’s a faint touch of red that you can barely see on the tv’s bottom and the tv’s stand. It doesn’t illuminate or add anthing to the tv. And why red? Maybe if it was blue I’d like it. The old model was plain Black and I’d have preferred this tv be plain Black too. Samsung is just persistant, and putting this red touch of color on allot of thier higer end tv’s. So congratulations Samsung you forced me to get it! Next I don’t like that they have done away with the S-Video input, not even one. I don’t have a second HD satellite box for this tv, but the S-video output is on the standard cable box. So I could get a better picture from the tv had it. Instead I have to hook it up with a crappy coax. So I can’t review how this tv performs with HD service yet. So all in all this is a top notch tv. The best you can get unless you want to pay another bill for the Sony. Styling is beautiful, slick, sleek, like a sports car. And the picture quality is outstanding! Thats what you buy a tv for ultimateley anyway.
