“Buyer beware” 2010-07-09
By DE
Great picture and no sound, this was our experience with this HDTV. Buyer beware on the quality control on this model. Our advice is to try another model.
“Looking for a great cheap 32inch HD, THIS is the one to get!” 2010-06-19
By Colin V. G. Quinsland
I got this TV a little over a month ago, and have not once regretted the purchase. Before this TV I had a 32 inch Sony KDL-V32XBR1 for over 5 years, and finally decided now was going to be the time to get my own as I am moving out of my house. I did some research and found that Samsung was definitely in the lead in terms of quality and price, and finally settled on this model. I got it for 499 on sale at Best Buy, and the difference was incredible! This monitor is BEAUTIFUL, especially for 500 bucks! You might want to do a little tweaking with the color settings, but it usually does a very good job looking great without any help from you. I have HD Cable, a Xbox 360 hooked up via Component, and a PS3 hooked up with HDMI. The TV automatically senses which ports are active and only switches between the ones that have an incoming signal going to them, which is really convenient. It also has a power setting which defaults to on which will detect the ambient light and lower the back-lighting on the monitor to save power. I personally found that it lowered the light too much, as I like my movies bright and colorful, so I ended up turning it off, which I would recommend to anyone who doesn’t mind spending a little extra power on their picture.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I originally had a hard time with ghosting showing up on bluray like another reviewer, but it just didn’t make sense and unlike the other reviewer, after a little research I found that Digital Noise Reduction filters cause all the ghosting with HDTV’s these days, so once I turned that off in the TV’s menu, everything was back to being incredibly sharp and quick! Just make sure to turn that off when gaming or watching High Def movies, and you will NEVER look back on getting this TV. It has an incredible amount of BANG for the buck.
“The Samsung LN32C530 TV has an important advantage” 2010-06-05
By William E. Bender (Ocean City, NJ USA)
I recently purchased the Samsung LN32C530 TV and I love it. We installed it in the bedroom, and it has a feature that is a big advantage for us: the “timer on” to wake us in the morning. We use it as our alarm clock to awaken us. Almost all TVs have a “timer off” feature or a “sleep timer”, but Samsung is one of the few TV manufacturers who offer the “timer on” advantage.
Also, I become amused by a review that complains that he had to put 4 screws into 4 screw holes to install the base. Is he joking? We installed the base and had it operational in about 10 minutes with no problems, and I am a senior citizen.
This is my 2nd Samsung TV purchase this year, and they offer a superior picture at minimal price.Samsung LN32C530 32-Inch 1080p 60 Hz LCD HDTV (Black)
“Working great and I like it” 2010-05-04
By Pen Name
Purchased the LN32C530 for the living room a couple days ago and am loving it.
Have not had any problems / noticed anything I don’t like.
Hooked up an Mac Mini to the HDMI port. For the audio from the computer to the tv, you just connect a 1/8″ (3.5mm) Stereo Male to 1/8″ (3.5mm) Stereo Male cable between the computer and TV. (The tv doesn’t have an digital/toslink audio out port).
Loving it so far.
6-14-10 Update:
One thing I don’t like is once a month or so, using the remote I accidentally put the tv into shop/store mode.
Wish there was a way to figure out what I was pressing that was doing it. I think it has to do with my holding down the volume button for long periods for one thing.
“Outstanding Picture Quality; Very Good Value” 2010-04-28
By Jack Gadzala
One month of viewing has reinforced my initial experience that this Samsung LN32C530 32-Inch 1080p is an outstanding LCD HDTV. After researching Consumer Reports and several online ratings sites, the choice came down to the LG 32LH30 32-Inch 1080p and a comparable Vizio (also 32″ 1080p). Both the other two were less expensive, but the research suggested that the Samsung quality and features would be worth it. It was correct. The picture quality is outstanding, viewing the TV off-angle only results in a minimal brightness reduction (less than I’ve typically noticed in other LCDs). Sound is fine (I use the TV speakers – not a home theater system for this TV). Satisfaction is 100%.
