+ Tv looks great and very well designed its picture is mostly very good it is very simple to set up and is suprisingly light and even though it is the 37inch screen fits in place of my old 28inch tube telly. As it comes with a two year manufactures guarentee without extra cost, the good looks and price, i think samsung have no real competition with any other main named brands.

- Unfortunatly the free veiw signal is poor this is not the tvs fault but it is when blocky picture is most noticable.
another point is that sometimes the control unit is slow to respond to a channel change which can be very irritating.

+ Best looking LCD out there! & Swivel stand a Must Have feature, Picture Good, Sound Passable.

- The badly designed software. TV channels take ages to come up, so do Menus. It really ruins the experience. For example I use Component a lot for Xbox (Best Pic quality by far). But to get to it from TV its: Press AV...wait 5 seconds for EXT1 to come up...Press AV again...Wait 5 secs for EXT2...Press AV...Wait 5 secs for Component.The thing is if Samsung pull their finger out, these can be fixed by an auto update - it is only SOFTWARE. What would be nice in my example is 1. Dont go thru AV sources if nothing attached (I have nothing on EXT1 or EXT2 but still have to go thru them). 2. If it really takes that long to render a TV channel then cancel that render if user presses AV or a channel button i.e. he is channel hopping. C'mon Samsung, sort it out!

- There are many, many, adjustments for setting up the picture (I have yet to figure out what the gamma adjustments are for). Some DVD films contain advice and content on setting up the picture (Star Wars for example), when the signal comes from a DVD player. Advice for setting up the picture for off-air programmes would be helpful.
