Customer Reviews

Quite possibly the best thing we've ever bought.
We got this TV after wanting to get the most out of our PS3 and it's blu-ray/ high def gaming capabilities. What a fantastic choice that turned out to be. The picture quality is outstanding, once you've got a blu ray playing on it with a decent hdmi cable the colours are rich and vibrant, with the tv coping really well between light and dark scenes. Sound quality is an issue, to be honest, the standard speakers are lousey, but we've hooked ours up to a pair of £20 computer speakers and it's great, so that's very easily solved, I imagine once hooked up to 5.1 surround the sound quality would be immense.

So to conclude, if you're considering dipping your toe into the world of high definition television, I'd say you could do a lot worse than this TV, it's a brilliant bit of tech, you won't regret it, for the price it's the stand out choice for me,

Unlucky for some
Having read good reviews of this TV I had high expectations. Was therefore disappointed to find that it was delivered faulty. When playing through its internal Freeview tuner the picture kept breaking up. It worked fine if connected via an external "digi-box" or from DVD player, so presumably the fault was in the internal tuner.
I therefore used Amazon'e Returns service for the first time - not knowing quite what to expect. The service was easy to use, and DHL came within 2 days to pick up the faulty set. The DHL driver expressed great surprise that we were returning a Samsung TV, he said he had never had to collect one before "they never go wrong..........!".
Unfortunately Amazon forgot to despatch a replacement. This was remedied quickly with one email, and the replacement set was then delivered quickly, but it meant we were without a TV for nearly a week.
The replacement set has been up and running for four days, and so far seems to be fine.
Performance is pretty much as expected from reading other reviews: picture very bright, good quality. Sound quality from the TV set's own speakers is not good, and I play it connected through my Hi-Fi. But I expected that.
Overall Verdict:
TV: Good value for money, got what I expected. We were probably quite unlucky to get a faulty set first time.
Amazon Returns Service: Impressed with the system, pity they cocked up despatching the replacement....!

Samsung 37inch Widescreen TV
Easy to instalation - Digital picture quality very good - Overall speaker sound fair, through ear-phones better. Design of remote-control poor, although the remote handles all situations it would be drastically improved if it was a little wider and completely flat, instead of long and hunched at one end - hunched at the end probably to make it easier to pick up, but because it not completely flat it slips and slides off furniture.
