DigitalTrends reviews the Samsung LNS2651D 26″ LCD HDTV (rating: 8.5/10) and writes;

“I found the Samsung LN-S2651D to be a pleasure to use on a regular basis. It is one of the best LCD HDTVs I’ve gotten my hands on, and I’m a critical nit-picker when it comes to high-tech products like this. ..If you’re in the market for a new LCD HDTV, this Samsung is worthy of some serious consideration. You should get yourself to a local retailer so you can see it in person and test if out. While I realize that there may be some consumers who pass on the LN-S2651D for a larger plasma or LCD screen, I think most people will find that their search for a mid-sized HDTV has ended.”

+ FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS

Featuring an LCD panel created in Samsung’s state-of-the-art Gen 7 plant, the LNS2651D incorporate the latest cutting-edge developments in technology (as well as design). While viewing either very bright or very dark scenes, it can be difficult to distinguish main images which blend into the background. Samsung’s Dynamic Contrast dramatically mitigates this problem by adjusting the backlight intensity, providing up to a 4x improvement in contrast. It offers support for a range of Samsung MP3 players and other portable digital audio devices, with an RS-232 port enabling you to navigate the player’s content on-screen with the LCD remote by connecting the device to the TV via an RS-232 cable (included). Samsung also worked closely with Microsoft to create a special Game Mode that optimizes image quality, sound and response time for more realistic video game play–with just a single touch of a button. The Game Mode enhances dark areas, sharpens the picture, speeds up the image processing response and enhances the sounds of your games.

The LNS2651D features a stunning 4000:1 contrast ratio, 500 cd/m2 brightness rating (for brighter whites, deeper blacks, and every shade in between), a 1366 x 768-pixel resolution (for a widescreen 16:9 screen aspect ratio), 170-degree viewing angle, and a super-fast 8ms (millisecond) response time, which minimizes blurring of moving images and is especially helpful for sports and action movies.

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. Other convenience features include:

* Picture-in-picture (PIP) enables convenient simultaneous viewing of TV programs and video or PC sources.
* Built-in image scaler to handle inputs from a variety of digital and analog audio/video sources.
* Parental Control (V-Chip) helps parents monitor what their children watch on TV by establishing rating limits.
* Auto volume leveler keeps audio volume consistent during channel changing.
* Multi-lingual on-screen displays in English, Spanish or French.

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. This set utilizes Samsung’s Dual Acoustic Chamber System technology, which isolates each woofer and tweeter in its own chamber. DACS is a revolutionary, computer-simulated technology that enhances lowrange sound performance, sharpens mid-to-high-range sound quality, and improves overall sound clarity. It produces 5 watts of power per channel (for 10 watts total). It offers the following connection options:

* Composite (RCA audio/video): 2 inputs (1 on the side)
* S-Video: 2 inputs (1 on the side)
* Component (Y/Pb/Pr): 1 input
* HDMI: 2 inputs
