Samsung LA40N81BD

 

Past Samsung 1080p models haven't greatly impressed us, so we were eager to see what the company's latest offering, the LA40N81BD had in store for us....

Extremely sharp image in both standard and high definition, good colour reproduction, great design, three HDMI ports

Some noise issues, lots of interference when running D-Sub, reds are quite strong

Samsung's LA40N81BD offers a good choice for users looking to take the leap into high-definition video. While there were some minor aliasing and noise issues during gaming tests, high-definition playback was impressive on the whole, and standard...

Samsung LA40N81BDX

 

While the Samsung LA40N81BDX suffered from a handful of image quality issues, they were forgivable when you consider it's an entry level model and priced accordingly.

Native 1080p panel. Attractive design. Wide range of connection options. Integrated HD Tuner. Excellent colour. Well priced.

Limited contrast ratio. Green discolouration of blacks & stepping in dark areas.

Just got this from JB HIFI for $1700. Fantastic TV for the price.

PS3 looks awesome on this TV. Couldn't ask for anything more in a 40" panel

Not 100MHz. But what do you expect for the price

Samsung LA40N81BDX

 

Purchased around the 2k mark. regret not getting a sony W. still a good 1080p tv and gaming picture is great but the lack of 24p support that the sony's have has really disappointed me

1080p picture at 60Hz for PS3 games looks great

NO BLU-RAY 24p support. Since i read that non supporting 24p TV cause judder on sweeping plains it just annoy's me now. My next TV will be a sony and i'll pay any price
