After a year and two months, menu lettering is scrambled and unreadable Feb 09, 2010 I bought my TV about a year and two months ago, just before Christmas 2008. Since then it's been a good TV - picture quality is good, sound quality is good (it's my first HDTV, so I don't have anything to compare it to; everything about it seemed amazing compared to the 19" tube TV I'd been using). However, yesterday when I turned it on I found that all of the on-screen menu displays (channel number and description, volume number, all TV setting options under the menu option, etc.) had turned into scrambled gibberish. What this means is that you can't read the number of the channel you're on, can't read the information about the channel, can't read the menu to change settings on the TV, etc. While the TV continues to work, it's a frustrating experience to not be able to use every function, especially since I've only had it for a year and two months. Sure, it's possible to open up the manual and guide my way through the menus that way, and I don't have cable so it's not hard to find the channels I need, but it'd be better if the TV just worked the way it's supposed to. I called Samsung about it and they confirmed that it's out of warranty so I'll have to pay for repair, and so now it's a matter of deciding whether or not I want to drop money on fixing this thing. Most likely I'll just save my money, keep using it in its current condition, and buy another brand when this one dies completely (which may not be too far in the future if what I'm reading about these TV's power systems is true). *Insert concluding rant about planned obsolescence here*
Great TV Feb 06, 2010 This was our first flat screen. It was a little small but it fits perfect where we currently have it in our house. If you don't pay for HD you really can't fully appreciate the television. Great picture.
It's Awesome! Feb 01, 2010 My son uses this TV to play video games with his xBox 360. The picture clarity is astounding! There is no discernible blur with motion. He uses an HDMI cable to attach the xBox to the TV. A coaxial cable is used to get cable TV. Even without a cable box or HDMI cable for TV shows, the picture is great. We got this for $400, including free shipping and no tax. Price couldn't be beat. This a 720 dpi model, but at 32" we couldn't tell the difference in picture quality between it and our 46" inch Samsung, 1080p 240 Hz TV. Review sites say that 720 is fine for a set this size and we agree. Highly recommend it!
faulty power supply within the first year... Jan 19, 2010 We purchased our tv on 1/24/2009 and on 1/10/2010 the power supply failed. Talking to the repair man he stated that most flat screens fail within the first 1 to 3 years to get you to keep purchasing new tvs, not like the old days where you purchase one and it lasts for 10 years. Atho he did stated that Samsung is the cheapest flat screen to repair if something does go wrong... TV is nice but Repair man recommend getting the extended warranty. Ours was still under warranty thru Samsungs first year policy by 14 days. Repair man stated if it would have broke in 15 days it would have costed us about $400.00 to repair it, vs. Sony same problem would have costed us about $700.00. I gave this a 1 star because I feel that tvs should not be breaking within the first 5 years.
Very good picture, terrible remote. Jan 09, 2010 I reviewed all the 32" HDTV on the market (CNET, Amazon, etc.)and this was one of two that ranked above average. It is not as good as my 52" 1080P Samsung. However, it is a very sharp picture with very good color. The remote is horrible. It's shaped like a canoe and you never know what side you are pointing. Its easy to drop too. The sound is typical of built in speakers. If you want high quality audio, run it through a receiver/amplifier to outside speakers. The antenna connector is in the back of the set. For wall mounting, a connector on the side near the other connectors would have been useful. It is at least 4"+ wide and it is likely these sets will get narrower in future generations.

Consumer Reports Says Buy Your HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2008) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2007 and June 2008. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its December 2008 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com and Crutchfield.com came closest.
