There is no doubt that you will have seen one of these awesome looking sets around somewhere before. They are everywhere!

Samsung dominate the LCD market, this particular 26" model joins their range, of well-priced good quality High Definition (meaning high resolutions of 720p and 1080i are avaliable, put simply making picture quality for digital TV that will soon be broadcast in HD as well as DVD playback and HD Gaming in the form of the xbox 360 look even better than on a standard TV)

This LCD is so special because of its relationship with xbox360 and its awesome pricetag (it is currently at the great price of £654.17 as a special Currys web-only offer)

The Samsung 26" is used on the xbox360 "pod's" to show off the awesome visuals of the xbox 360 in the best possible way, the samsung was the chosen medium for this important job for a reason. Its AWESOME, both in specs and also aesthetically, the actualy set looks amazing.

Features:
-2 Scart-Sockets (Prevents constand inter-changing of sockets between your various pieces of technology)
-DNIe Picture Enhancement Technology
-HDTV Ready
-Digital Freeview Compatible (Can recieve terrestrial digital broadcasts for free)
-Nicam Stereo Sound
-HDMI Connectivity (Put simply the new replacement for component and scart in the HD-age, a better quality connection)
-Component Input
-S-Video Input (Mainly for use for playback of digital camera footage)
-SVGA Compatible

Picture quality is sharp and the colours are extremely vibrant, featuring Samsung's "Magic Bright" system, basically incorporating the technology for bright contrasting colour display... All of this for just £650!

Using with the xbox360 with both HD-Scart and Component connections, the Samsung displays the brilliant visuals of games bright vibrant games such as Kameo and King Kong particullarly well, where other LCD's may not perform so brilliantly, and also shines with less conrasted games with its pin-sharp visuals.

As with other samsungs the package is tired together nicely with a nice simple and colourful menu system and logical and simple to use remote control, that matches the TV nicely, and an impressively easy set-up. Even better, considering the limitations of internal speakers im pleased to say in this TV they dont perform too badly at all, although of course, for both gaming and dvd playback I totally reccomend a set of external speakers for optimal sound quality, or any kind of real bass or sorround effect. (In my opinion the boasted "tru sorround" in this system and any other kind of virtual sorround sound leaves a lot to be desired)

As a finisher, as you would expect from an LCD with such a great spec and range of features, with such a good grip on the more demanding tasks like HD gaming, it also displays regular TV equally as well, with no apparent ghosting, and an awesomely sharp picture , especially from its in-built freeview reciever, which works especially well, and is a very nice feature indeed. As an added bonus, its easily wall mountable!

Finally, i suggest having a good search around before you buy this very popular and well demanded product, maybe even eBay as well, because if Currys are doing it at £650 you may well find even lower prices, to really push this bargain LCD to its price limits !

I reccomend to hard-core gamers and casual TV viewers equally, because of its extraordinary features and very ordinary price!

HD Ready LCD TV for Xbox 360
Review of Samsung LE-26R41B by bermudaviper

Advantages: Excellent Picture Quality, Refreshing Design
Disadvantages: None so far

...same boat. Luckily the Samsung 26" does have the required component inputs which is ultimately why I chose it. The TV itself is well made and the design is also quite refreshing. Due to todays TV's mainly being made in Silver, the piano black gloss frame of the Samsung looks really nice, set off by the silver triangular speaker housing at the bottom of the set. The connectivity options of the TV are excellent, it has TWO scart sockets, HDMI, Component ...
...sound. The sound quality is brilliant, and is loud enough for all applications. I paid £670 for the TV and I'm really happy with it. I've also since learned that Samsung manufacture the LCD panels for Bang & Olufsen which cost a hell of a lot more. ... Read review

Worth it?
Review of Samsung LE-26R41B by tiger645

Advantages: brilliant
Disadvantages: quite expensive

...great viewing in general. This Samsung LCD is just right for those people who want a new large but good quality TV. The TV provides a very high resolution of 720p making the picture great! The colours are great and there is a bright contrast allowing the picture to be seen clearly and for the picture to look good. The picture is also very sharp adding more benefits to this great TV. So what does this TV provide? (for technical people) 2 Scart-Sockets ...
...Stereo Sound HDMI Connectivity Component Input S-Video Input SVGA Compatible For those who are not so technical (like me) it basically provides everything needed to be connected to all your various devices which you might want to connect! If you follow the guide then this TV is quite easy to set up and can be used within an hour. The remote which goes with it is great and matches with the TV. The sound is also good allowing for complete brilliance ... Read review

Samsung Le26r41BD for £420, What a Bargain!!
Review of Samsung LE-26R41B by ric985

Advantages: High definition, Integrated freeview, Looks great, amazing price.
Disadvantages: none so far.

Bought this last week through freemans mail order catalogue, after looking around for some time i decided this was the tv for me, Xbox360 was launched using this tv which told me if a company of microsofts rated it so highly it had to be good and they where right. The picture quality is absolutely amazing and miles better than the conventional tv it replaced although because i dont have sky hd i cant really say how good the hd ready part is except ...
...and they look amazing, not only is it better quality it is also so thin and saves so much space in my small bedroom. it saves even more space as i even use it as my computer monitor allowing me to get rid of my 19"crt monitor as well as my 21" standard tv (both took up far too much space). With it also having integrated digital freeview you get an extra 30 channels altho i dont think i can get top up cards for it for any more channels but am not ... Read review

Perfect for gamers
Review of Samsung LE-26R41B by jug_head74

Advantages: Superb picture quality
Disadvantages: none yet

I bought this TV as an upgrade from an old 4:3 tube set. When buying this TV I wanted to make sure it met all my current needs and would also meet future needs aswell. After a lot of research on many different makes of TVs, I couldn't find any that had as many features and was anywhere near the price. So what does it do? Well it's HD ready so its perfect for those of us who own xbox 360's and produces amazing picture quality, but it also means that ...
...is broadcast in HD you'll be ready (as long as you have a suitable HD source). There is also an HDMI/DVI connection for newer pieces of kit, that produces superb picture and sound quality from my dvd recorder. There are multiple other connections on the back as well, to suit virtually all your needs. For the quality of picture from my xbox 360 alone it was worth buying, but if you add in the price and numerous features then this TV is an absolute ... Read review

Fab LCD TV with Digi box, really pleased...
Review of Samsung LE-26R41B by Lockoracer

Advantages: Very good value for a high quality TV, fantastic picture.
Disadvantages: Haven't worked out how to record Digital programmes to our DVD recorder yet, but that maybe me being stupid!

Exact Product Bought - Samsung LE26R41BDX HD Widescreeen LCD TV Price £669 inc delivery Shop - AJ Electrics (www.ajelectronics.co.uk ) Date - 5/11/05 I read and researched considerably before buying a new TV because I wanted one to last more than 5 minutes and be somewhat future proof. This TV is HD ready, has a built in Digital receiver and produces fantastic picture quality. It was easy to set up, looks good and has been a pleasure to own. ...
...with the sharpness of the picture. The sound is very good. I can imagine having a surround sound sytem would make it exceptional. There are enough connections in the back to support anything you want to through at it for the foreseable future. The remote control is easy to use and has a couple of useful functions such as flicking back and forth between 2 stations, TV guide and good Digital menu. This may be my lack of intelligence but I haven't ... Read review
