      Samsung LE-26R74BDX

      Review summary: Samsung's LE-26R74BDX is an icy triumph on looks alone. With its glossy black screen frame offset by a backangled whitish triangle along the underside, it's as cool-looking an LCD as we've seen

      Pros: Sharp images, Handles fast motion well, Nice design

      Cons: Sound isn't too good, Blacks and shadows could be better

      Verdict: A decent LCD screen that handles HD well, not a bad entry level panel

    • Cons: None

    Was looking for an Lcd TV throughout 2006 and decided you just could not beat the Samsung for style and looks.
    Now I've had the TV for 2 months I'm so glad I went for the 40" and not the 32" Though at first thought it might be too big, within days I was very used to the larger screen.
    The picture quality amazed me and the colour is truly vivid. Watched "Planet Earth" th... Read Full Review »
