Samsung TXM3298HF 32" Neo Slim Design DynaFlat HDTV
Fantastic set. Great picture, awesome value.
The Samsung TXM3298HF is a true winner in every regard. I spent weeks looking at televisions of every make and model in electronics stores all over town, and the Samsung came out on top in both picture quality and price. Compared to a 32&quot; HDTV Sony Wega, the Samsung was just as crisp and beautiful, yet sold for hundreds less. On top of that, the Samsung was also 3 inches slimmer (depth), so if you have a tight space that requires a semi-shallow depth, yet you don't want to scrimp on screen real estate, the Samsung (which is only 22 inches deep) is the way to go. I've watched DVDs on it, and even bought a component video cable for my Nintendo GameCube, and it all looks stunning. Digital cable looks wonderful as well. Like others in these reviews, the color does take a little fiddling with to find the right setting for your environment. But once you get that right, it truly does offer a stunning, rich picture that'll leave you glued. Set also comes with tons of video / audio component inputs and outputs on the backside, plus a few handy ones on the left side in case you want to quickly plug in a DV cam or other device. The remote is easy to use and well designed, and can be programmed to handle your VCR, DVD, or Cable box. The set is heavy - at least 120lbs or so - so if you purchase one online and have it delivered, keep in mind you'll need a friend or two to pick it up.
