Samsung and Sony have been slugging it out for the hearts and wallets of the consumer for years. In 2007 Samsung moved forward as the leading and most popular consumer electronics brand in the world.

This fact alone gives many consumers the comfort of knowing they are working with one of the top three electronics brands along with Hewlett Packard in America and Siemens of Germany.

The Samsung 52 HDTV is a result of their years of commitment to customer satisfaction. This unit features:

  • Internal Flash memory of 1GB
  • Integrated Woofer for premium sound
  • DNLA for electronic compatibility
  • 50,000:1 Dynamic contrast ratio
  • Info link- get free RSS feeds of news, weather and sports
  • V chip
  • Gaming mode and much more!

As high definition televisions go, the Samsung 52 HDTV is definitely the top of the line.

Review

The picture quality of this model is stunning; this is in part due to the replacement of the typical plastic face of a traditional LCD TV with a natural black panel with anti glare shield. This reduces the reflection of external light and leads to the deepest blacks. Washed or gray looking blacks are a common problem among LCD televisions.

The 50,000:1 ratio dynamic contrast will give you whiter whites and the darkest blacks. When it comes to picture quality the two biggest determining factors are contrast and brightness levels, and the Samsung 52 HDTV delivers on both counts.

One fantastic aspect of the Samsung 52 HDTV is the Digital living network alliance. DLNA is a collaborative effort of the world’s leading electronics companies. Together they created guidelines that will allow many new consumer electronics to work together. This means the photo slide show stored away on your pc can be displayed on your Samsung 52 HDTV when the in-laws come over.

The only complaint about this TV was a reflection from the beveled glass edges on the case. This was a minor situation and is only a problem is select situations however, it does bear mentioning.

Reviewers have been very positive on all aspects of the Samsung 52 HDTV, picture, sound and connectivity all rate five stars. Price too has come down on this type of TV until you can get a nice one from Amazon for just under $2,000.

Consumers and professionals alike agree that this model is a very well put together unit for the price and type of television it is. You will find similar models somewhat cheaper but many of them will have contrast ratios of 10,000:1 or less leading to picture quality loss.

Full Review

Large TV displays are undoubtedly more attractive and powerful than the smaller kinds. However, few TVs maintain to keep their charm amongst the large crowd of larger displays like the Samsung 32 inch display.

The Samsung 32 inch does limit itself to 720p, but the good style and design makes this TV simply irresistible. You won’t find any sharp corners in this display because the edges are all rounded. The TV frame is sleek and shiny with no signs of silver trimmings or other non-black elements.

The screen doesn’t reflect any light or anything else giving you a perfect picture regardless of the lighting. The ergonomics help define the Samsung 32 inch display as not too large and not too small so it is ideal overall for home viewing.

The Samsung 32 inch display is pretty feature rich with tons of picture controls and does a good job with color saturation. Even the black level performance is pretty good producing accurate deep blacks.

You can basically find some of the advanced picture settings that are found in higher-end plasma TVs. This is also a great product for those looking for a good extra monitor for their computer.

1080i sources that are connected to the Samsung 32 inch display show some pretty noticeable loss and the sound quality is just enough to enjoy regular TV watching, but could be a bit better.

The high contrast ratio and other good imaging features are enough to make this display a great pick especially for the budget conscious. In fact you can get 2 of these sleek displays for the price of 1 bigger display. It may not be full HD, but the Samsung 32 inch display simply looks great.

Product Summary

The Good

The design in the Samsung 32 inch display is well done from the TV to the remote. The remote is easy to use, has well-saturated color, and backed up with numerous picture controls.

The Bad

There is some noticeable detail loss when 1080i sources are connected to the Samsung 32 inch TV. The sound could use some improvements and at 720p, it isn’t fully HD.

Bottom Line

Don’t get this Samsung 32 inch TV display if you are looking for full HD quality. However, it is worth the money if you are after accurate colors and great overall performance for your living room or bed room. You can always use an external source for making up with its weak sound quality.
