Samsung LN19A450 19-Inch 720p LCD HDTV, Black

Having moved across country temporarily to find the furnished apartment furnished with an ancient tiny TV, I set myself the task of finding an affordable interim replacement. My "real" TV is a larger sized LCD Samsung and I have been very happy with it for the last two years, so I was not hesitant to get another Samsung, especially with the good reviews of this model. I was not disappointed! This TV has a beautiful picture. It is crisp, clear, responsive (for video games), and has great color.

The sound, oddly enough, is much better than my bigger Samsung. Perhaps Samsung has inconsistent speaker quality? I noticed some other reviewers complaining about the speakers, but I really find the sound quality to be quite clear and rich for such a small TV. Makes me think if I were to buy another and got crappy sound, I'd either return the TV or have Samsung fix it.

I've noticed that the menu options and firmware, while closely resembling those of my older TV, are in fact much improved. The channel selection is more intelligent, and my favorite thing is the picture resizing options. They are far more flexible. On my old TV, they are frustrating and I always seem to have black bars in one direction or another. This TV will cycle through any option you could want at the touch of a button. Wish I could upgrade my old TV's firmware, sigh. But on this tv, you can! There's an option to upgrade from USB in the future in case there are more improvements to the firmware. Joy to a geek like me, I suppose.

The plan was to sell this TV when I move back home, but I am sorely tempted to keep it for use in my kitchen, I like it so much.

Oh, and there was no sticker on the screen, so I guess that's no longer an issue? I like the glossy frame, and while it does reflect a bit of light, the screen itself is so vivid and engaging, even for its small size, that I don't notice any glare at all while I'm watching the TV. Also, even though this set is small, the clear picture makes it more visible than you'd think, though I do miss my big screen!

In short, if this is the size you need, then this is a great TV, especially for the price!

This is as good a buy on a TV as you will find anywhere. It has the same crystal clear picture that Samsung big screens are known for, and the size is perfect for my office. The sleek design made it easy for me to hang it on the wall just four feet from where I sit at my computer station in the corner, allowing for a little extra desk space (my designs are neat; my desk is not).

The sound is more than adequate for a set this size, but there are complete AV and Component inputs on the back (plus PC In), so you can create a robust system if that's what you want.

I'm not a big fan of the glossy black finish on the frame, but it's not bad and the transparent lip on the bottom is a nice touch. All in all, you really have to love it, and at this price you can't go wrong.

No complaints, works as expected. Audio is sufficient for our needs. We opted for white to match wall for flush mount.

I was looking to replace a bedroom tv when I looked at this one. The customer reviews were largely favorable, price was good, so I bought it. I was amazed at how easy it was to set up and install this TV. Great picture, ultimate simplicity of set up. This is one TV I don't have to call me kid at college for help. I couldn't be more pleased.

I did extensive research for a good HDTV and found this Samsung to be the best of everything I looked at. I am very pleased with the picture quality and overall performance. The pricing at Amazon was also the best when compared to over 20 other retailers, so all-in-all, I am very pleased and would recommend this item to anyone looking for a great 19" HDTV.
