Richard , Bangor , “Nothing”

Score 8.0/10

+ Good connectivity,the fact that it'll broadcast HD Freeview when it becomes available a bonus. Looks good,i have the rose black colour DTV. This monitor come TV isn't a bad buy and the fact that it supports Full 1080p on a small screen (even 24" supports 1080p) was the deciding thing for me. It's well hard finding a HD TV as small as this that supports Full HD.

- Sound quality is poor to say the least. I think the contrast ratio could have been better although if put close to it's highest settings it's just about enough. Don't understand why the monitor only version of this product has a contrast ratio (Dynamic) of 20000:1 and this only 10000:1? Doesn't have the best viewing angles.

Score 10.0/10

+ Excellent picture quality

- Sound as per usual for a Samsung can be quite low, buy a decent sound system if you want to use it in a living room enviroment, but for a pc monitor it is excellent.

james, london

Score 9.0/10

+ outstanding picture quality and the design is truly pleasing on the eye. Hard to find a better monitor at this size with the 1080 resolution anywhere. 2xHDMI lead inputs and built in freeview, this T.V/Monitor is ideal for computing or smaller room viewing.

- The sound output is sadly not the greatest, as is quite common with most smaller LCD T.V's ideally, hook up to a sound system or some monitor speakers and this is a fantastic modern piece of entertainment equipment you won't regret buying.

David, Leighton Buzzard , “Male 58yrs. retired.”

Score 9.0/10

+ I've only had this TV about 1 month and so far and I can honestly say that there's no comparison with my old lump of a telly. For a start the picture is so much better, secondly its easy to use once you've got use to all of the different controls.

- The only bad point it has is the sound needs to be better, by this I mean that there's no rich bass tone so it sounds rather tinny.

Score 8.0/10

+ Highly specced for its screen size 1080p capable, loads of connection options.
Matt screen, rather than glossy, great for minimising reflections.
Touch of red complements the larger A656 range perfectly.
360swivel base

- Matt screen, rather than glossy, not as sharp a picture.
Doesn't sit perfectly horizontal on base - this sort of thing annoys me.
No tilt control.
No s-vhs.
All very minor niggles, but would have cost pennies to put into the product

Score 7.0/10

+ Easy to set up. Good picture although a bit blurry when watching fast moving action. Probably better suited as a computer monitor than as a TV

- Good viewing angle is limited when using as a TV. Layout of remote is a bit confusing (Panasonic TV remote control is a good example of what a remote should be like). Sound is a bit 'tinny'..

Score 10.0/10

+ Good points are that it is a TV and a computer monitor. I thought a 26" screen might be too big for general computer use but it isn't, it is fantastic!!!

- Not being able to angle the screen up or down like a normal computer monitor.

Mike, Clitheroe

Score 9.0/10

+ Superb monitor for use with a PC but if required as a TV then a Freeview box required.

- Poor sound volume.
Ok as a PC monitor, but as a TV you would need to connect to a home theatre system

John, Pinner

Score 9.0/10

+ Great size desktop for having open multiple applications and particularly for preparing and editing Power Point presentations. TV image generally very good. Switches very readily between TV and Monitor applications. Compact. Good looking design. Easy to set up. Sound good (within a small room environment).

- Image quality may be a bit of a compromise between the two. The contrast on monitor setting is not quite as sharp as I would like. Movement on TV setting can sometimes lack smoothness, though it's better when viewed from 2m or more away.
