Expert review by : Ty Pendlebury (cnet.com)

Samsung UN32EH4000F does the job

The Samsung UN32EH4000F is a fine example of a no-frills 32-inch television that gets the basics right.

The ; is one of the better 32-inch televisions, with decent picture quality for the money. Black levels are deeper than the competition's, and shadow detail is class-leading. The TV comes with some advanced picture controls and includes a 60Hz dejudder...

The TV has very few features and won't connect to online services. The stand doesn't swivel, and the remote has too many buttons.

The Samsung EH4000 is one of the best TVs available at the size and price, with above-average picture quality and a svelte design.

Samsung UN26EH4000 Review – 26-inch LED LCD HDTV

Samsung UN26EH4000 LED LCD HDTV. The 26-inch model launched by Samsung looks like the traditional TV sets available in the market. It lacks most of the features offered by the latest higher end HDTV sets including 3D technology compatibility, 1080p HD...

Samsung has further designed UN26EH4000 without including any wired or wireless networking and internet access option. But the model comes with 2 HDMI and USB ports that can be used by a viewer to access his offline collection of movies, music, videos,...

Expert Review

Conforming to an enduring legacy, Samsung has made a substantial offering by elegantly blending ostentatious looks and truly high-end specs. The TV is fashioned to proffer an unrivalled viewing experience. Your quest for a first-rate television in...

"Great for the price, good for various purposes."

I've had this tv for a few days, after several weeks of research and price-watching. For $280-$350, this is a fantastic tv! I was in Best Buy comparing the Toshiba 32C120U and the Westinghouse UW32S3PW, and then read CNET's review on the Toshiba, which...

"Buy with confidence!"

HDMI outputs are bells and whistles we don't have any use for, so cannot comment on those features. Would highly recommend this tv to someone who wants to transition to the 21st century affordably and without any grief.

720p offers great picture without overdoing it on the details; 32" screen is plenty big for our 26x17 viewing area; 3.5mm spks are better than expected, even in standard mode; user-friendly picture, audio and other on-screen controls; easy to set up.

Samsung remote AA59-00600A has rounded underside that defies single fingertip control when rested on tabletop. (Easily remedied by leveling with 4 round bumpers to its underside.)

"Good TV for the price."

I am generally happy with this TV. I followed CNet's advice for picture settings then tweaked them to my liking. The sound on this set is marginal, but there is an equalizer built in. This helped, but did not entirely solve sound issues. For the money...

Solid picture. Good picture adjustment controls. Slim bezel.

Mediocre sound. Poorly-designed remote. Few inputs.

"Great Value, Awesome TV"

This is truly an amazing tv. I was almost swayed by the allure of all the 40" LCD's, but this 32" feels bigger than it is when it gets inside of your home. The clarity is remarkable. Most cable shows and games are only displayed in 720p so there is no...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Not for a monitor

Wish I could double it as a computer monitor and 1080p, I guess.

It is amazing as a TV. For a 720p, it does great and I think the sound is also decent. I usually have it at 10 on the movie sound default setting and it's fine. If you have a vacuum cleaner, loud kids, and mostly not paying attention to the television,...

It definitely is not made for a computer monitor. I wish it could be as it gives a fairly clear television. I've tried multiple settings and alterations to have clarity as a computer monitor, but to no avail.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Lasted four months beyond warranty.

Stopped turning on after 16 months, either due to capacitors or a main board issue. Either way, Samsung will not help, since it's 4 months out of warranty. Apparently this particular issue is not uncommon with Samsung. They will recommend a service...

Cheap, light, decent picture quality.

Sound a bit weak. Stopped working after 16 months.
