Amazon.com Product Description
If you're just entering the HD arena and don't want to break the bank on your first flat-screen television, the entry-level 32-inch Samsung LNS3241D LCD TV is a great fit for your budget and it offers many of the same video processing features as its higher end 51- and 52-Series siblings. It features an integrated HDTV tuner, 10-bit video processor, and a 3000:1 contrast ratio for smooth, vibrant pictures. It also includes dual HDMI inputs for simultaneous signal transfer of audio and video from digital devices and PC connectivity. The dual purpose pedestal stand can also be used as an articulating wall mount when it's folded back. Additionally, the stand can be removed for wall-mounting via optional VESA compatible hardware (such as Samsung wall mounting kit WMTL4001). p table align="right" bgcolor="#99CCFF" border="0" cellpadding="3" width="380" tbodytr td smallbSamsung's DNIe#153;/bbr Samsung's DNIe#153; (click for demo) technology offers digital perfection in naturally presented, crystal-clear images that uncover even the most minute detail./small /td /tr tr td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/samsung/motion.jpg" br smallbMotion Optimizer:/b The visual data are automatically broken down into signal and noise and adjusted through a combined spatial/temporal process to eliminate noise and blurring without the slightest damage to the original signal.

4 out of 5 stars Can't go wrong with Samsung!   September 12, 2008
J. Hansen
I'd been looking for an LCD TV for sometime. Originally I was going to pickup a 26" but then became so aware of the minor price differences between a 26" and a 32" I've always known I wanted a Samsung, mostly because of my respect for the Korean people. Plus, due to all the reviews, and my experience with Samsung LCD monitors, I knew I wasn't making a mistake picking up a Samsung. br / br /From day 1, I haven't been able to complain--much. The picture quality, how the blacks appear, etc. all are wonderful. Using it with my Panasonic DVD player, Apple TV, and even Dish Network receiver has not presented any issues. I've even got an Nintendo Wii hooked up to the component input. Each and every input looks wonderful. The menu system makes sense and is easy to navigate. br / br /My only complains would be that I wish it had more HDMI inputs. It only includes 2. I ended up picking up an Xtreme Mac HDMI switcher, which works well, but, it would've been nice not to have had to buy that. br / br /The other issue is with the built-in "surround sound" type software sound enhancement it has. While it works, if you leave it on for everything, it just sounds odd. In the end, I've just found to leave it off..and now I'm looking for a real surround sound system. br / br /I wish it was bigger now, but really a 32" isn't a bad size. ALl in all, if you pick one of these babies up, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. I haven't been.

S. Engram (Abingdon, Md United States)
This television was a great addition to our bedroom. Perfect size and what a great picture. I loved the price as well. I would recommend samsung to anyone who is looking to buy a LCD HDTV. I thought only Sony put out great pictures but Samsung ranks right up there.
