Let's sing the praises of Samsung LCD TV

Advantages: Saves space, good picture, built in freeview
Disadvantages: HD broadcasts not out yet, need a HD ready DVD player too

...apparent thiness. I particularly like the Samsung as it is framed in black ( see picture above ) and I think this gives it a sleek, stylish look. My boss informed me once ( he is full of pearls of wisdom) that a LCD tv is equally popular with husbands and wives. His reasoning is that men like all the gadgets that come with it ( and there are many like picture in picture, different screen sizes etc) while women like the extra space it affords the sitting room. To be honest I like the extra space it affords our room. Furthermore as a parent I'm glad that neither of my sons can lick the television screens any more when their favourite characters come on ( the things they learn from their mother!). It also means they have to watch the television from a certain distance which is obvouisly benefical to their mince pies! *** Spot the Difference...

Review of Samsung LE32R51BD 32" LCD TV

A cool 32 inch Samsung LCD TV

Advantages: Fantastic picture quality, nice sound, ease of use and a good looking TV
Disadvantages: One HDMI

...If quality and style is what you are looking for then the Samsung LE32R74BDX 32" HD is the TV for you. This screen is one of the better looking on the market and looks great both on the side with the supplied stand or mounted on the wall (wall mount not supplied). The picture quality is phenomenal. The TV has DNIe (Digital Natural Image engine) which helps to 'step up' the inputted source. This means a great quality pictures even from my DVD player connected through one of the two scart sockets and from the built in freeview receiver. This negates the need to update a DVD player for one with a HDMI connection. The screen produces up to 12.8 billion colours and has a contrast ratio of 5000:1 giving great definition between light and dark. In fact the two main disadvantages with LCD TV's have been solved with this screen...

Review of Samsung LE32R74BDX

Samsung LE32R88BD LCD TV

Advantages: Good picture and easily altered.Excellent sound even at low volume.
Disadvantages: No on screen program info as you scroll through channels.

...I recently bought this model from Currys after friends sang it's praises.Reviews on line supported this and and before I knew what was happening, the old 6 year old 1 ton Sony was out, the Samsung in.Now, I did buy the 40 inch version first but the sheer size of it along with it's huge glass unit was too big for our average sized room, a quick trip back to Curry's resolved this.I have learnt that anything over 32 inches means a bigger base unit is required, so be warned.The picture is great, full of colour and there are a host of on board features that can change and adapt this as you wish. The sound too is crisp even at low volume.It's swivel base is ideal if the want to alter the viewing angle slightly.The Samsung remote is clever enough to learn other makes and models of VCR and DVD players also.The only niggle I really have is...

Review of Samsung LE-32R88BD

Samsung LE32 LCD tv

Advantages: Great picture over hdMI, vga and Component
Disadvantages: Changing Souce takes ages. TV takes ages to switch on.

...Great Picture on HDMI with my Virgin V+ Box My media centre is connected by VGA which is great too, as is the Upscaling DVD player of Component! Picture and sound is good then. What is really annoying is no shortcut buttons on remote to HDMI/ COMP/ VGA. A. Turn TV on...takes ages to fire up. B. Press the Input button..wait...press the input button...wait. etc etc Eventually you get from HDMI to VGA. If this is the sort of thing that really annoys you, dont get this tv! ; Of course there is a menu system to navigate to the corrrect source, but unfortunately, this cannot be accesed through the Samsung DVD remote!. I do not like 10 remotes on the table, so the TV one stays in the basket. In summary, great TV, a pain to operate....

Sony 32" LCD WEGA Flat Panel HDTV

Advantages: great picture quality
Disadvantages: the TV may not be good for interior designing.

...Sony has a wide variety of Television to choose from. Flat TV is the most popular choice for buying a TV but have you consider buying a flat tv with HDTV? Well, if you are planing Sony 32" LCD WEGA Flat Panel HDTV is the best product to buy. Wtih many features in this product, you cannot ask for more. Actually, I always bought Sony products because they are always trusted when it comes to quality. My fist TV experience in this product is really awesome. This has a great picture quality that you always look in TV. And also, it is like you were on a cinema when you are watching because of it's amazing sound quality. You'll never ask for more. Lastly, this TV comes with a great low prices. Buy 32" because TV that are 40" to 50" wide have a poor picture quality....

Review of Sony 32" LCD WEGA Flat Panel HDTV - KDL-32XBR950

Bush 32" Widescreen LCD TV

Advantages: extremely cheap, HDMI, excellent on DVD & Games, wall mount, lots of functions
Disadvantages: TV channels quality not as good as DVD/Game quality, low contrast ratio

...Bush Idlcd 32 TV 16 HD Price £360 Features are listed at foot of review text We bought this TV because our old 28 inch TV took up too much space. We wanted something that would look modern and wouldn't become the focal point of the living room. We love films and computer games and so we also wanted something that would make our movie nights more of an event. We didn't think we could afford an LCD TV but we went shopping around for one nonetheless with an extremely tight budget. We looked at a few and thought we had found one we liked (a Samsung - apologies I have forgotten the model) until my fiance saw this this fellow. It was modern, it could be wall mounted, and if it was on a stand it didn't take up much room at all. Compared to other TVs in our budget it had 2 stand-out bonuses - 2 Scart sockets and even more...

Review of Bush Idlcd 32 TV 22 HD

37" Flat Screen LCD

Advantages: Good quality picture, easy to install
Disadvantages: no connecter aerial in the package

...I have owned this Samsung television for a year now and have been very pleased with it's performance. I would say it was of average price for an LCD TV of this size at around £600. It was easy to install (although no aerial lead was included in the packaging) and the channel auto install was simple. The picture quality is very good, well defined, and colours are bright and sharp. Colours are even throughout the screen, with no fading or darker patches. The teletext functions are also good, with bright displays. The sound quality is excellent, defined and clear with no muffling. The remote control included in the packaging is basic but does the job. The TV is easy to clean, although as with most television sets attracts alot of dust! This does show up quite alot owing to the shiny black frame of the set. This can not be...

Review of Samsung LE37B650

Snap Happy Samsung!

Advantages: Great camera at a great price.
Disadvantages: None at the price, you get a great item for what you pay!

...now and it's a good, solid piece of equipment. However, I invested in a case for all of £3 and it's payed for itself, protecting the LCD screen as well as the camera. Highly recommended! I keep my camera mostly at home, so it doesn't have too hard a life bashing around in my bag or getting wet in the rain, so I couldn't tell you about those conditions, but I can say, take care of this camera and it will last well (so far!). I'm not a massive tech-head and I have no patience at all, but I was able to use this camera without reading the instructions (which are well laid out, should I have not been so lazy). Just point and shoot, so easy! You will need to buy an sd (memory) card and since this camera has video function, I would recommend (again depending on your planned usage) getting a 4GB memory card for video. I have a 1GB sd card so far...

Review of Samsung ES55

Bush LCD 32TV016

Advantages: Good picture quality
Disadvantages: None

...I'm not overly fussed with some of the technical aspects of televisions, I don't even understand most of it so I'll do my best not to bore anyone with these during my review. As long as I can plug in my dvd player, my sky box and my nintendo wii with no problems I'm a happy bunny. I agree, Bush might not be a market leader when it comes to televisions (or anything for that matter) but this one looked nice. I bought this television almost two years ago to use as the main house tv. It sits proudly in the corner of my living room with the matching glass tv stand. Both were bought from Sainsburys. The TV itself was on sale and I managed to get it for under two-hundred pounds. Which is an absolute steal. The cheapest I can find it for at the moment is around the £300 mark. The 32" inch screen gives a clear picture and considering, although...
