Samsung LNT1953H 19-Inch LCD HDTV

With its sleek shape and thin, piano-black frame, Samsung's LN-T1953H enhances your decor even when it's off. Turn it on, and this 19" LCD TV comes to life with brilliant colors and intense blacks. Moving images flow naturally without jagged edges, thanks to the fast 8ms response time. The handy picture-in-picture feature and a wide viewing angle add to its versatility.

Offering an unparalleled sleek design in a gloss black finish, and a quality 720p LCD panel available, Samsung's 2007 model LNT1953H 19-inch flat-panel LCD HDTV is an excellent choice for a kitchen, or small bedroom TV. Compared to the previous year's model this one offers an updated cosmetic design, hidden speakers, and 1 HDMI connection. The Samsung Digital Natural Image engine (DNIe) Video Enhancer refines all analog NTSC and wideband video inputs for an overall improvement in picture quality. DNIe improves contrast, white level, picture detail and incorporates digital noise reduction to improve lower quality video inputs. The 3D Y/C digital comb filter constantly analyzes the three dimensions of picture height, picture width, and picture changes-over-time to dramatically reduce edge image artifacts while improving transition detail. High-quality virtual surround sound can be experienced with just the speakers built into the TV. SRS TruSurround XT technology delivers an amazing, simulated 3D effect with clear dialog and powerful bass through hidden side speakers. TruSurround XT audio adds three audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience. Dialog Clarity brings movie dialog into Focus during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper. TruBass creates incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself. The SRS WOW feature widens the soundstage by processing standard two-channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo audio over a two-speaker system. Connections: HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) 1 RF antenna 1 Component (Y/Pb/Pr) in 1 S-Video input 1 A/V input 1 PC input 1 Headphone jack 1 What's in the box: Samsung LNT1953H LCD TV, remote control, 2 AAA batteries, Power Cord, wall mount kit, cleaning cloth, owners manual, warranty card.

I like this TV a lot i bought it to take advantage of my Xbox 360's component inputs and it doesn't disappoint. I also bought it to replace my desktops monitor and i works wonderfully for that also. The fact that i am using it for both stipulated switching between them flawlessly, however there is a flaw, due to the need to make it receive exceptional antenna signals from the TV tuner it always picks up {Air} as one of the current inputs and so switching between them is a bit more frustrating then originally anticipated. This is just me rambling though i still love the TV and think its a wonderful investment for anyone!!!

This TV was a gift and it was well received. It looks great, great audio and video.

We recently purchased this television to use in our kitchen. This was an awesome deal. It was advertised as "open box" used but was in pristine like new condition. Plugged it in, attached the cable and it works perfectly. The picture is perfect and even came with its own wall mount. This television retails for almost double in our area stores. Not a noticeable blemish on it. It also was shipped and received quickly. My wife and I are perfectly happy with this purchase from Amazon.com.

Unlike other reviews I found the picture quality to be above average; not outstanding or decent but above average. My main problem with this good looking TV is the sound quality. The Samsung makers put all their focus and efforts into the sleek look and design along with picture quality but overlooked the second most important feature of any television - the AUDIO! I put both the TV remote and Cable remote on full blast and it still wasn't loud enough and I'm not hearing impaired or hard-of-hearing. I'm also not an audiophile either. The idiots at Samsung also put the tiny speaker in the top rear of the TV rather than the front where it counts the most! I don't know what they were thinking but I hope all of their TVs aren't made like this one...as this is my first Samsung and I was sold by the sleek design and picture quality on display at the store. The other minor details I have with this poorly made product (which I'm surprised no one else mentioned) aside from taking some time to turn on is the annoying sound it makes every time you turn it on and off. Also, when you put on the MUTE you have the annoying words moving up and down the bottom left-hand side of your screen...if you're watching a movie in mute you're eyes are glued on those moving words...almost hypnotized by them...no joke! So overall, beautiful exterior design, great picture and but poor sound.

Easy setup. Mounted on the wall in bedroom. The wall mount worked great , didn't need to buy a special mount bracket. The sound is great for internal speakers.
