Samsung TXS3082WH 30" Wide Slimfit HDTV
Buyer Beware - This Lemon is Tart
I bought this set two months ago and never used it much except with an Xbox 360. Recently I noticed that the red and blue pixels on the left side of the screen were a little off. Even in 1080i mode I could see this in the game icons off to the left side of the screen. The middle of the screen was great, it was just on the left side. I went to two different stores and checked their displays and saw the same thing.  Then I googled the matter and saw that the previous generations of Samsung's slimfit sets had \\"Geometry Issues\\". A totally different problem where the bottom of the screen is slightly bowed. This is mostly noticeable on channels with tickers like CNN. Guess what? This set has a similar issue. To compensate Samsung added the \\"tilt\\" adjustment in the set's picture menu. This did not fix the pixel issue though. I called Samsung and their Tech said all TVs do this (No they don't). I like the numerous features of this set and wanted to buy an extended service policy from Samsung, just in case. The Tech had me wait a few minutes and came back saying they did not offer one on this model (That makes me nervous). If I spend this much money on a TV I want it to be perfect! Shame on Samsung for putting out a TV with known issues. Lemon be thy brand.
