Advantages: Sleek, space saving. Disadvantages: Dust attraction. Poor sound.

As I said, it does look very nice, but there's a price to pay.

Having said that, the standby mode uses a very small amount of power. In normal use, the power consumption is 45W. In standby it's around 2W. So fairly small, but something you might want to consider. This television will be consuming power at all times, unless you unplug the wall socket.
Anything else I didn't like? The sound is awful. While the chunky CRT televisions do take up a lot of room, at least there's space in the box for a decent set of speakers. Think how much room there is in a flat panel TV for speakers. Not a lot. And it shows with this TV. The sound quality is poor (2 x 3W rating). I think with flat panel LCD TV's you get space saving convenience, but the quality may suffer as a result. The sound is poor, and in fact I prefer the picture quality from the old style CRT TV's as well. So we can make this bad point number 3.
Picture quality. All LCD TV's that I have seen are extremely bright. The picture is very, very vivid. All the colours are ultra bright, and consequently somewhat unrealistic. In my opinion a CRT TV gives a much better, more realistic picture.
This point applies to all LCD TV's.
Having said all that, I am very pleased with this purchase. I paid £299 from Currys, in December (2006). I didn't have room for a CRT TV. I don't have to worry about placing it close to hifi speakers. The remote control is excellent, easy to use, egonomic and responsive. Ignoring the dust problem, it does look superb. The built in stand can swivel and be attached directly to the wall, so if you wanted to do that, you wouldn't have to go out and buy an additional wall fixing. The teletext includes fasttext. There are a plethora of input/output sockets at the rear, including connections for PC, digital video camera, audio, s-video, DVI, a single scart socket, a headphone socket....
Anything else I liked? There is a freeze frame button. When you are watching TV, you can freeze the picture. You may not want to, but it's quite cool. The sound and picture are easily adjusted via the remote, and there are preset modes which you can switch between (movie, music, speech etc).
My overall rating is GOOD. But don't expect much from the speakers, and perhaps builtin freeview would have been nice. I hate having cables all over the place.
Advantages: Cheap, Compact, Black gives a better picture Disadvantages: Not a lot of extras
The Samsung LE 10 R 71B (whatever that jargon means) is a nice compact tv that would do justice in any small room, and 19in is just about right so that you wont be straining your eyes to make out a picture. Firstly the price being around £250 for a 19" HD ready lcd tv is extremely good; and secondly the fact it is being samsung means that its coming from one of the top brands of electronic suppliers. And a useful fact for you that samsung supplies ... ...by buying a samsung. Personally Samsung is my preferred brand on any electrical item with the exception of possibly pc's and mp3 players!
The remote is again with most cheapish tv's, well made, but nothing special. It is simple to use and the IR beam is strong, meaning that you wont have to fidget around trying to turn the channel!
I always have preferred a black tv being CRT or LCD purely because I feel the picture has then a border around it ...

Advantages: good quality picture Disadvantages: not the best in the range
i had the chance to use this tv just before xmas at my uncles place and i thought it deserved a comment.
for the price i must say i think it should be a little cheaper than preasently sold for but if you are buying an lcd for the first time then it is a good place to start.
it is a little on the small side for a large lounge but perfect for a bedroom.
the picture quality isnt the best i have experienced and its not exactly the easiest thing to ... ...the moveable base unit isnt the most stable one out there but it does the job and can be ok, sometimes a little on the stiff side when it comes to manouverability, but its not a top of the range model.
i found the connections in the back a little stiff to but once all put together seems pretty stable.
overall this lcd tv once set up has good usability and doesent seem to have to many problems. again i say for a first lcd or and second house tv ...

Advantages: Good price, nice design Disadvantages: At times picture can be poor
This television is a good looking one, it has the same design as the bigger more expensive ones. Many other smaller LCD televisions look like PC monitors, so if you are conscious about how you want your television to look then this may be a good option. It is a reasonably small unit which menas that it can be placed in most rooms. The stand that comes with it is well made and also slides back in order fo the television to be mounted onto the wall. ... ...the television is simple and the instructions are relatively easy to use. One of the downsides is the small amount of scart sockets, there are only 2 which is not good if you plan to attach a large amount of extras. The picture quality is good but can get slightly grainy at times. If you are using a digital signal the picture becomes very good, so I would suggest this television if you are using freeview or any other digital television service. The ...

Quick review of Samsung LE 19 R 71 B
What a fab little tele! This tv is perfect for everything that I need it for. I currently have it fixed to the wall in my kitchen and with its sleek and stylish design it fits right in. The settings are easy to use and for everyday use I couldn't ask for a better machine. The picture is very clear and the volume can be adjusted to louder than I will ever need. Ok so it's not the best for watching your favourite blockbuster on but it is perfect for daytime tele or for when the football is on! I would thoroughly recommend this product and I have been extremely happy with my purchase. I am sure that this is the best small tv on the market! ...

Samsung's new generation of high specification LCD TVs deliver extremely high picture quality and connectivity matched with a high gloss black finish which makes this product stand head and shoulders above the competition.
