Amazon.com Product Description

For anyone looking for a great value on a smaller 720p HDTV, Samsung's 2007 model LNT2642H 26-inch flat-panel LCD is an excellent choice. As Samsung's entry level 26-inch LCD, it offers a 4000:1 contrast ratio, a 160-degree viewing angle, an 8ms response time panel, 2 HDMI inputs, and SRS TruSurroundXT from two side speakers.

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.

Samsung HDTV is excellent.......2007-12-14

This is the perfect LCD HDTV for a bedroom or other smaller room. It has a brilliant picture, great menus and the side mounted speakers are fine for average listening. It has two HDMI inputs so connection to a cable set top box is a snap. The unit has a graphic equalizer so you can shape the sound to your listening pleasure. Often I read reviews of smaller HDTVs where the reviewer downgrades the speakers. I was concerned about this when we started looking for a 26" set. My fears were for naught. It isn't "home theater" quality but it isn't the tinny sound some people describe. It's lightweight and can be moved from room to room with little effort. Highly recommended.

SAMSUNG 26" LCD TV.......2007-12-09

Only had this item for about a week but:
It arrived on time, in good condition, Picture and sound are great, the price was the best I could find. Free shipping also.
I would recommend this product and retailer to anyone.

Great TV for a smaller area!.......2007-11-07

I was in the process of looking for a nice LCD TV and came across this one at a price I just couldnt pass up. The image is great. 5000:1 contrast ratio in my opinion is great for a $500-$800 tv. The picture quality is amazing. I have my PS3 hooked up via HDMI at 1080i and I love it.

Pros: price; great tv for a smaller room. Picture quality is extremely sharp. Sound is very good for small tv speakers (audio out is also included on this tv) Lots of inputs including 2 HDMI and 1 PC Input. Internal HD Tuner is a plus. I received about 5 digital channels over my basic cable.

Cons:So far I have not been able to get the Picture in Picture to work. Havent played much with it yet so it could just be my error. I know the PIP will not work with cable/cable but to my understanding it should work with cable/other input.

Overall I would definately reccomend this tv for someone that is looking at their first HDTV or someone who is looking for another HD set for their home.

samsung hdtv.......2007-10-11

good tv until 1 yr warranty runs out. then parts break quickly and Samsung wants no part of you. not built to last. lousy customer service as well.

screen bigger than I through !.......2007-09-29

First off let me say that Amazon shipping was FAST!!! The set works fine and has alot of cool factor. The plug and play setup got me veiwing right away.My next step is to upgrade my cable to digital.I have had samsung products in the past and they seem to be well made and last,I hope I have the same luck with this.When I ordered the 26" I was afraid it would not be big enough,but I was thinking diagnal not wide screen.

Product Description

Samsung maintains it's leadership position in pushing the envelope of LCD TV technology with this HD-Grade Widescreen series. High pixel resolution and a wide viewing angle combine with a 3000:1 dynamic contrast ratio to provide true state-of-the-art image reproduction.

Amazon.com Product Description

If you're just entering the HD arena and don't want to break the bank on your first flat-screen television, the entry-level 26-inch Samsung LNS2641D LCD TV is a great fit for your budget and it offers many of the same video processing features as its higher end 51- and 52-Series siblings. It features an integrated HDTV tuner, 10-bit video processor, and a 3000:1 contrast ratio for smooth, vibrant pictures. It also includes dual HDMI inputs for simultaneous signal transfer of audio and video from digital devices and PC connectivity. The dual purpose pedestal stand can also be used as an articulating wall mount when it's folded back. Additionally, the stand can be removed for wall-mounting via optional VESA compatible hardware (such as Samsung wall mounting kit WMTL2600).

Samsung's DNIe™
Samsung's DNIe™ (click for demo) technology offers digital perfection in naturally presented, crystal-clear images that uncover even the most minute detail.

Motion Optimizer: The visual data are automatically broken down into signal and noise and adjusted through a combined spatial/temporal process to eliminate noise and blurring without the slightest damage to the original signal. This guarantees the viewer a picture of astounding sharpness, whether the scene is still or moving.

Contrast Enhancer: DNIe has done away with the unwanted side-effects that conventional contrast enhancement can produce, such as noise boost-up and flicker by developing an algorithm that recognizes over 1 million criteria for applying contrast. Its detail contrast enhancement technology can automatically analyze up to 70,000 local images within a frame, treating the viewer to a picture rich in contrast even in the tiniest details.

Color optimizer: For each scene the color optimizer calculates the saturation of red, green, and blue in the input signal and adjusts it to the shades that the human eye accepts as natural. Even a conventional process like white tone enhancement produces more striking results when when used with DNIe. The end result is a palette of vivid hues and pure white tones to satisfy the most discerning viewers eye.

Detail enhancer: Many viewers complain of the unnatural effect that conventional uniform detail enhancement produces by relying on artificial amplification of the input signal. In contrast, DNIe automatically analyzes the portion to be amplified, detecting and re-processing any noise or defect to bring the viewer a startlingly sharp and lifelike image.

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.

Get a great view from anywhere in the room with this TVs great verticle and horizontal 170-degree viewing angle.

The LNS2641D features a stunning 3000:1 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. 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 sides of the TV. SRS TruSurround XT technology delivers an amazing, simulated 3D effect with clear dialog and powerful bass. It produces 5 watts of power per channel (for 10 watts total) and 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
PC: 1 D-Sub15 input

Tech Talk
HDMI is a lossless, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface to link any audio/video source (such as a set-top box, DVD player, or AV receiver) with your TV--all over a single cable. HDMI supports standard, enhanced or high definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It supports all ATSC formats--standard (SDTV), enhanced (EDTV), and high (HDTV).

TruSurround XT audio adds three new 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.

Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

What's in the Box
26-inch LCD TV, tabletop stand, remote control (with batteries), AV cable, AC power adapter, printed operating instructions

Warranty
1 year parts and labor (90 days parts and labor for commercial use)

I Can See Clearly Now !!!!.......2007-07-08

WOW what a great picture!! I will never go back to tube tvs again. As a matter of fact, I am looking to order one for my bedroom now!! This is a great HDTV for a living room. Crystal clear picture and not too hard to learn everything even though I am still learning. The sound could be a little bit better but is good. I highly recommend this tv for the price it goes for now. I got it 7 months ago and the prices have come down as much as 300 dollars!!!

Excellent HDTV.......2007-05-05

This TV is excellent. It does everything I want it to do. The picture is amazing and the sound isn't to bad either and it also has all the hookups that I need. I mainly purchased it to replace my old JVC LCD TV, because it was having problems. So far no problems and I have had this one for a few months now. Like I said, this TV is excellent. Highly recommend it.

Nice tv.......2007-04-08

I'm not a TV or game nut. I use Phillips rabbit ears and watch what I need from local stations. I had to buy a new tv cause the old CRT one quit. I got the 2641d partly based on an Amazon reviewer's good luck on an air antenna.
I wanted a light tv cause I live on the gulf coast(evacuating). That said, I started looking for an LCD, built in dual NTSC/ATSC tuners, PC monitor capable. The 2641d has them all and is light weight.

When I set it up, I just plugged it in and clicked on all the local channels I knew of. Some were OK and some snowy/bad. This made me buy another bigger(more expensive) antenna--It worked no better than Walmart's Phillips so I returned it.

I figured I'd have to live with what I had, but one night I was playing with the auto set up and let it go through the channels and wow!
Don't know what I did?, but now I get two or three signals from each channel, analog, HD, 480, weather and such. ex: ch 5 is CBS analog; move up to 5-1 and same program but HD, 5-2 is weather, and 5-3 is 480/720.
On my PBS channel I get 4 different programs. 42,42-1,42-2,42-3. One is HD others are clear as can be too. Forgive me if most of you already know about this, but I told you I'm not a TV watcher and this feature blew me out. The 3000:1 contrast ratio is one of highest too.

Lesson is: read the manual and let the tv select the programs through the auto mode. Best thing is that either the digital station is great or it won't pick it up. I live nearly 40 miles from the broadcast antennas.

This TV works great on air antenna signals. Price was reasonable and picture is amazing. Can't imagine seeing it on satellite or cable. Now I'm playing with the favorites, PIP(PC+tv--not multi tv channels), and other stuff. Highly reccomend it.

Love the TV.......2007-03-29

This is a great TV for the price! I couldn't be happier with the quality and the service was just as good. Thanks

I love the picture on the Samsung 26" HDTV.......2007-03-23

The picture is phenomenal! The TV fits easily in a small space, but has a good size picture even sitting 6 feet away. The one drawback, which has not been an issue for me, but might be for people who use other digital equipment such as a video recorder, is that the jacks are only on the back of the TV. Otherwise, it's a great product.
