Samsung LE32R87BDX

There can be no denying when it comes to making an attractive looking TV Set, Samsung need not look up to anyone else. With the LE32R87BDX they have created a TV that looks almost good enough to take home to meet your mum. Curved in all the right places with a glossy black surround, a slim bezel and an appealing price tag it will almost certainly court approving looks from the old dear, and she’ll be positively frothing at the mouth when you tell her about the 3 (count em 1,2,3..) HDMI v1.3 ports it comes with, meaning it is fully future proofed (well for the next 6 months at least…), and you can enjoy all sorts of HD input such as SKY HD, a PS3 and a HD-DVD player without having to constantly unplug one device to plug in another.

The picture quality isn’t too shabby either, although it doesnt support the full 1080p resolution, on a screen of this size that probably doesnt make much difference. Black levels are deep, and colours are vibrant. However, fast moving scenes are prone to a bit of motion blur, which even the integrated Movie Plus system can’t quite deal with. You’ll probably want to invest in a seperate audio system too, since the speakers arent quite meaty enough for a home cinema experience, but all in all the LE32R87BDX can count itself as a solid performer for ordinary TV viewing.
