Samsung LE32A457 was my first ever Samsung purchase, I am generally a Sony man - but started noticing over the recent past that the numbers on Samsung products were becoming more and more impressive so decided to plump for this screen for my mother's bedroom. Out of the showroom and into the bedroom the picture looked even more artificial and the thing started to give me problems - not the screen as such but my mother's disappointment with the quality ...

Review of Samsung LE32A457
Purchased the Samsung LE32A457 on the 2nd July '08. Found it to be very easy to set-up the basic video & sound. To get the best from this model you do have to tweak all the settings, and there are plenty of them. The defaults are OK but was a lot, lot better after my personal settings. I was impressed with the picture quality and I don't have to have the volume up high to hear the sound clearly. I would suggest you buy a HDMI cable if you have anything ... ...well. I then unconnected the three Scart Leads I needed for my old TV.
The only draw back is the black surround needs cleaning quite often as it attracts the dust quite a lot.
All in all, a very good quality HD LCD Television, clear & sharp vivid colours and the price was right for me from Laskys, delivered free in three days. ...

Advantages: Picture and sound spot on! Disadvantages: Dust magnet (as with most TV's)
I bought my Samsung LE32A457 on the 1 July 2009 at my local Currys and I have been very satisified with the quality. It does take a bit of tinkering to get the best out of the TV i.e adjust sound settings, however I was very impressed with the picture quality and sound.
The only draw back is the black surround needs cleaning quite often as it attracts the dust quite a lot. This is only a slight drawback and I am sure this is a common problem for ...

Advantages: Excellent picture quality and ease of installation Disadvantages: Needs a sound system to improve sound quality
I was quite skeptical before of trying this Korean brand. But then I was attracted to its affodable price in comparison with the Japanese and European brands. I was also attracted to the TV's very modern appearance. The picture quality is Excellent! I was amazed at how bright and clear the images it produces. The sound is good on its own, but I recommend to link it to a sound system of your choice for the best viewing experience. Since I am not a ...

Quick review of Samsung LE32A457
I have been looking for a widescreen television for about a year now. I was about to buy a LG 32LB75 when I saw the picture quality of the Samsung LE32A457. The difference was unbelievable! For a little more money it was well worth it!
The picture clarity of the Samsung is stunning. Freeview Standard Definition is a cut above most other LCDs I've seen. Skin tones are impressively natural, and colours are crisp. Ghosting does not seem to be a problem on this model.
Sound is average, but hidden speakers are a plus. The Samsung has a piano black gloss finish which makes it a stylish and sexy LCD. I highly recommend the LE32A457 to anyone!

...a Sony 32v4000 or a Samsung 457, the Sammy won out as Emma liked the look of it more and the fact that all the Sony`s were sold out.(FACT: did you know Sony's use Samsung panels?) Now the 26" version of this model got awards in "what hi fi" so I knew I wouldn't go far wrong with the 32" version. setup One thing that surprised me was that it was lighter and easier to install the stand than I thought so within 10 mins i got the Sky the Wii and the ... ...easy to use with category's on the left hand side that you can select by moving up and down, The only gripe is that to select different inputs you need to keep pressing the source button where on other TV`s you get a useful pull down list . The remote is very glossy much like the TV so it looks quite nice but it is prone to fingerprints! the buttons are grouped in to categories and are thoughfully color coded, also there is a handy HDMI button so ...

My mom has this tele. This TV is described as having picture in picture technology when it clearly doesnt.Don`t be fooled by any adverts as to this.Apart from that it does have good picture quality and sound quality but the slow response time in changing channels on freeview is slightly disappointing.Overall a good tv. ...

Another great piece of equipment from Samsung. Great for those looking for good value along with high definition. Perfect for your living room or bedroom. To be honest you can get these quite cheaply so never pay anything more than £500 unless you require it brand new. All in all one of the best television sets on the market today for the price and with its amazing 32 inch screen and 1366x768 resolution you won't be disappointed. Great for those ...

I bought this today for the bargain price of £428 and I must say it is absolutely beautiful. The picture and sound are unbelivable. I would definetely recommend to anyone. The contrast is 10.000:1 with built in freeview in a black gloss finish, with clear edging round the bottom. UPDATE 8 DAYS LATER. I am totally in love with this television. It is everything you would want in a television and then some!!! The picture is perfect (No ghosting etc) ... ...had to put the volume up to 28/29 whilst this one we pnly have to put it up to 10/11!!!) If you are thinking of buying a television then this is the one for you. If you are in the Sheffield area I can honestly recommend Crampton & Moore at Ecclesfield where this one comes with free 5 year warranty. ...

Advantages: great picture quality, good sound, extremly reasonable price. Disadvantages: the stand was a bit of a pain to fit, but nothing major :)
well, I purchased this nice TV as a little Xmas Present for myself :). i found this nifty TV after hours of scouring PixMania. it was posted extremly quickly, and arrived within about 4 days, which is quite good, considering it came all the way from hong kong, then to france, then to north yorkshire. on chirstmas morning, i opened up the box, and brought it out. the picture quality was amazing, and the sound was crisp and sharp. in my opinion, this ... ...to date, but anyway, within a few minutes, it was connected up to my PS3, and off i went, shooting baddies on call of duty 4 in high definition. and even now, in may, ive just found a nifty new feature, it has built in freeview!! i found this to be good quality, and to be honest, was quite surprised to find a tv, with so many features, such a great picture quality, and all for such a great price (i think i paid around £350) all in all, i would reccomend ...
