Samsung LNS3251D 32-Inch LCD HDTV
Excellent HDTV but....
I am writing this review after using the TV for a while so I can be more accurate. There is one thing I just hate in this TV. <br /> <br />1) At this point in time, programming that you can get will be a mix of HD (720p and above) and SD/ED (480i and 480p). HD aspect ratio is 16:9 while SD/ED would be 4:3. Simply put, a HD program would *naturally* fill up the complete screen as this TV also has a 16:9 screen. On the other hand, SD programs would appear *naturally*  like a square within the screen with black side bars. Problem is, this TV does not remember the aspect ratio *per channel*, instead it has a system wide aspect ratio. So if you were flipping channels, and you went from an HD to SD chennel, the SD picture will be streched as the TV scales a 4:3 SD program to 16:9, and you have to change the TV's aspect ratio to 4:3. Again when you went back to HD from SD the image appears squished (16:9 to 4:3) , and you have to change the aspect ratio back to 16:9. You end up pressing the pic size button on the remote every time to match the channel's native aspect ratio. EXTREMELY ANNOYING. <br /> <br /> <br />Since what's annoying for me may not be as bad for someone else, I still give this set a 5 star. Everything else is just fabulous. Eagle delivered, very courteous, very professional.The HD picture is stunning, but SD is nothing I look forward to watching. Remember one thing - If you are not planning to get HD programming, do not waste money on this set. You'll be disappointed otherwise. <br /> <br /> <br />Amazon is amazing! I saved a ton buying it from here.
