Customer Review

The Samsung shows compared to other brand appliances an amazingly good picture for analogue stations. The sound quality is acceptable. Unfortunately, the DVB-C tuner is available only for public service broadcasters, because Samsung has certified him not by cable Germany. Therefore cable Germany puts no smart card 'out, so that RTL, SAT 1, etc. Digital can not be received with the built-in DVB-C tuner. Therefore my advice: It is best to buy an LCD TV with DVB-S tuner, switch to satellite and terminate the cable contract. The lack of certification is a star-deduction in the evaluation.

The remote control of Samsung is quite clear, as is the menu. Unfortunately, the individual station sorting is very cumbersome. Analog and digital channels can not mingle. And the sort menu in Analog and Digital are also structured differently still. Moreover, it is a hassle to switch to digital television in analog, here simply lack an A / D button, such as Sony, they should have. That is the second point deduction.

Nevertheless, I would recommend the Samsung overall quite precisely because - as I said at the beginning - the picture quality is so good that an excellent price / performance ratio results. When retailers are there for the money usually only a trademark of Turkish production. I have certainly also bought the 22er and 32er from the 650 line and changed our household with TVs from Samsung on LCD.

One last tip: On the eighth prices! So my 32er had to have at Media Markt for 999 Euro, at 599 Euro for Notebooksbilliger.de. The 40% difference! Generally Amazon also is very convenient as direct providers, especially as it postage paid comes home.
