Amazon.com Product Description

Offering an unparalleled sleek design and one of the best 720p LCD panels available, Samsung's 2007 model LNT2653H 26-inch flat-panel LCD HDTV is an updated successor the super popular 2006 model LNS2651D. Compared to the previous year's model this one offers an updated cosmetic design, a better contrast ratio at 5000:1, hidden speakers, side A/V inputs, and 2 HDMI connections.

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.

Excellent quality and value.......2007-12-15

I shopped around a long time before purchasing this TV and I am glad I did. I went through all the discount stores trying to find the best price for a decent quality HDTV. This one had all the features I wanted and the price was very reasonable considering the picture quality is flawless. I was limited in the size television I could fit into the space it was intended for and was skeptical that the 26 inch would appear small. It does not. If you are looking for a good quality television on a budget do not skimp and go with a lesser brand or contrast ratio. Sure you can get a bargain but you will be missing out on a great viewing experience. The colors pop off the screen, fantastic.

My first LCD TV. I've read about and discussed with people what they like or dislike about their brands and sizes. I bought this 26" Model 2653 after demos of this and about twenty others, for a lower price at another reputable sight. After four months owning, no problems, no high pitched noises, give 4 out of 5 due to short experience. I'm wondering if the noise some owners have is a result of wiring outlet (house) wiring faults or mistakes. Incorrect phase, poor grounding, low voltage transformers from other devices, RF interference can cause buzzing and other noises with sound systems that I had to fix. Great picture quality.

will not work with a DVI PC connection.......2007-10-06

I was looking for a HD TV monitor that I could hook up with my new home built PC- [which has a Nvidia 8800 GTS card that has DVI connections]. This TV will not work with a PC with DVI. Only the 2007 Samsungs will.
The FAQ at the Samsung website says:
If you have a 2007 Samsung LN-T LCD TV and it has more than one HDMI jack, you can use the HDMI 1 input jack to connect to your computer's DVI video output jack using a DVI to HDMI cable.

No Samsung LCD TV built before 2007 (LN-S series, LN-R series, LT-P series, etc.) has a DVI input for a computer. All models built before 2007, however, have an analog, 15 pin D-Sub (RGB) computer input.

Important: Many of Samsung models built before 2007 have a combined HDMI/DVI input jack. You cannot use this combined HDMI/DVI jack to connect your pre-2007 Samsung TV to your computer's DVI video output jack. Samsung TVs built before 2007 do not support DVI to HDMI computer video connections.

HTH

The tv for a gamer! xbox 360 A+++.......2007-10-03

Believe me, I have read every review on the internet for this tv. I always wanted to buy "The best" gaming tv for my xbox 360. I did not care about the price. I looked at Sony especially but no one has the response times and the experience as Samsung.

I decided 26" would be a good size since it is for my bed room. I think this is a great compromise between the expensive 32" and the small 23".

For those of you who are worried about the "high pitched noise" that many people are posting about, there is a high pitched noise AT TIMES. I would say it occurs less than 25% of the time. I myself am a teenager and it honestly doesnt bother me. The closest example to this noise is the sound of the high pitched cell phone ringer that is not heard by adults.

Another quirk people might have is that if the standard cable looks good. Actually, it looks pretty good on this tv and I would rather watch shows on this then my tube. I do not have HD channels yet. As for sound, its decent I guess, I dont use the tv sound as I have a bose system to hook it up to that sounds much better.

Honestly for xbox 360, the main use for this tv, I could not ask for anything more. I watched a few HD clips with the xbox live feature and these look amazing too. This truely is a good buy for Amazon's price of the low 700's.

Amazon has a great return policy, there is no harm in trying to fantastic TV especially if you are a gamer like me. Nice Samsung!

Noisy.......2007-09-22

Mine was mfd April 2007. Beautiful design, but noticeable high pitched noise. Changed "backlight" down from 10, and it quieted the noise. At 7, I could not hear it. It's a shame.

Bring your home entertainment together with the 26-inch Samsung LNS2651D LCD television, which includes an integrated HDTV tuner as well as connectivity options for your PC and portable digital audio players. The thin-profile, piano-black LNS2651D will look great in any bedroom or home entertainment cabinetry. 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.

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.

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

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.

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
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.

Love this TV.......2007-06-05

I needed a smaller TV for our bedroom and bought this one in February. Our bedroom has 360 degree all around windows so I would have glare issues with the old TV there. I especially liked the 4000:1 contrast ratio, 500 cd/m2 brightness rating. I am very pleased with the TV, it's picture is superb, no glare ever - even when the sun shines into our room. I highly recommend this TV.
