yea yea i feel u, it's not so much the price i'm worried about...i just wanted some guidance on the specification and whether it's a good buy or not ya dig? some peeps been tellin man that LCD is shitty compared to CRT so man is kinda confused n ting now

The contrast rate is decent, but the refresh time is a little slow.. 8ms, may see some video lag.

ok first of all, i actually understand the language this guy is talking in, its a south east and london thing really..

but anyway, nice tv, i have the same in a 32, and my uncle has it in a 37

will do upto 1080i and 720p (obviously then the lower ones for the wii..)

about CRT being better for games, they tend to give a clearer picture sometimes, but get a set of component cables and you'll be sorted

for about an extra hundred quid you could get the 32"...

(still makes me kick myself when i see how much i paid for these things ages ago, o well, life goes on)

I'l warn you now I bought my Toshiba frm Play and the ****s sent me a grey import with a 2 pin plug and I wasn't appy.

Make sure hey don't do the same to you.

My TV's fine I paid by credit card but the warrenties in german so I cant fil it ut butt he credit card covers me anyway.

GaryT85 · 02-19-2007, 05:07 PM

unlucky on that one...

amazon have it for the same price, and i doubt they would pull something like that

LOL that's ****ed up, why didn't u call them up and let manz know what the deal was? I'm sure they would have taken it back and given u the proper 1..i mean afterall play.com are a ruputable site so......

they better not to the same to me yo, if they do that to me TRUSTTTT manz are gonna get murked!!! LOL i'd be pissed!

That is a great TV. Samsung's TVs are going to cost more than most, but they are worth it. For that size 3000:1 is going to be one of the higher c/r. As for the refresh rate, 8ms is very good for a flat panel television.
