subject: Samsung LE32B450 Review [print this page] Samsung has always been a leading brand for television technology. As each new idea or concept has been introduced, Samsung has reviewed, responded and ultimately led the field. The same is true with the flat screen wave that is inundating the electronic industry.
To begin our review of the Samsung LE32B450 32 inch model we would say it is a smartly priced TV that offers many of the features that more expensive models do, at a fraction of the cost. This particular model is predominantly sold in Europe and Asia.
The use of Samsung's Wide Color Enhancer 2 engine, allows the Samsung LE32B450 to offer some of the most natural and vibrant colors of any TV in the market. This process affords better greens and reds which lead to better blues and blacks, resulting in a very life-like reproduction. On some sets in this price range, black has a tendency to bleed into shadows. This is not the case with the Samsung B450. In fact, in a dark setting, there is still plenty of detail in the background.
With three HD interface connections, DVD players, gaming consoles and satellite connections are easily attached. These side mounted connections, make even adding your camcorder a snap. The 10 watt Dolby Digital Plus speaker system offers excellent sound, but some have said it has a bit of a hollow sound. This is easily resolved with the addition of a stereo and hopefully a surround sound system, which allow you to maximize your viewing and listening experience.
An easy set up will result in you having a great set at a very reasonable price. The black lacquer shell is stylish and scratch resistant. It is strongly recommended that you attach the base upon taking the set out of the box, at it will be much easier to set-up the set. The on screen menu is simple to use and thorough. With the built in sleep timer and alarm clock feature, you will be able to go to sleep watching your new set and be pleasantly awakened by the same.
Coming in at under 26 lbs, the Samsung LE32B450 can be as portable as you need it to be. With a thickness of less than 3. 5", this set can fit anywhere. Although the standard swivel stand is included, there is also a wall mount included with each set. This makes it perfect for a bedroom or a small family room.
The Samsung LE32B450's native resolution of 1366 x 768 prevents it from displaying 1080 content with the crispness seen on other full HD models. Unless you are sitting inches away from the set, you will be hard pressed to notice any differences. Although during set-up you may notice limited choices for picture quality. Don't let this cause you any challenges. With two modes, natural and auto, this set had no problems in supplying a high quality picture in either mode. This applies to TV, DVD or gaming.
Even being a little short in features, at a very attractive price, the Samsung LE32B450 TV is one of the best. With your purchase you will have a high quality, great performing TV which will give you many years of excellent viewing.
