I'm very happy with this TV. The picture is great, and the sound is good. The Amazon site said it had three HDMI ports at the time I ordered, but the TV in reality only has one HDMI (I sent Amazon a note to correct the product description.) I wasn't thrilled about not getting three HDMI ports, but I decided to keep the TV nonetheless since it has a great picture in the size I need and at a good price.

Just received my Samsung LNB460 22inch LCD from Amazon
What a beauty,even with the set off.I've been
a Sony person for 20 years,but this baby is impressive.
The picture is fantastic and so is the sound,perfect for
a bedroom or den.I read the start up manuel 3 times to be sure
but to my delight the set does everything for you.All you do is
answer the promps by cliking Enter and you'r done.
I'm glad I picked SAMSUNG for a change.Yes,the hardest working
people on earth sure put out great stuff lately.

With the recent transition to all digital broadcasts, we decided to upgrade our old 13" Toshiba instead of buying a converter box. We settled on this Samsung (LN22B460), a 22" model. The tuner on the TV scanned and found most of the digital signals in our area easily enough, even using basic rabbit ears as the antenna. The menus on the TV are clear and easy to navigate. The picture is great -- nice rich colors and good contrast -- the best I've seen in an LCD TV of this size.

However, the sound is almost totally unacceptable. It is incredibly nasal and sounds like everyone who speaks is trapped in a big can. This must owe principally to the fact that the speakers aren't front firing and cannot be too large given the slender cabinet. Adusting the EQ settings in the Audio menu seems to have little effect on the nasal, dry, recessed quality of the sound. My laptop computer sounds better. We'll be keeping the TV but adding some small speakers so it'll sound at least as good as the old $80 Toshiba 13".

Recommended but with reservations about the sound.

I just purchased the Samsung LN22B460 and am very pleased with this product. The previous reviews I read were very accurate. The picture is very clean and the colors are great, especially in HD. If not viewing HD channels it is very easy to adjust the colors to get the picture you're looking for. The set up was very easy. Just open the box and plug it in. With not much reading you can figure out how to set up the colors, channel selection, sound, etc.
The sound is not terrible like some of the other reviews stated but it could have a little more bottom end to give it a boost. I'll probably buy speakers to add on as I don't have it set up through a sound system.
I've owned several Samsung's over the years and feel that they put out a great product.
All in all I would highly recommend this t.v.

We enjoy this tv, it's a perfect size for the bedroom. One problem we've had, however, is adjusting the color to standard from dynamic, which is used in the showroom because of the brighter lighting. The colors are too bright, especially the reds. I switch the picture to standard, but it goes back to the dynamic mode each time I turn the tv off and back on. Talked with a salesman and he suggested unplugging it for awhile and said it should re-set itself...but it didn't make any difference. If we can figure this problem out, will give it 5 stars.

Excellent TV - Great Picture - Very good price - Highly recommend the Series 4 over the series 3 or 2. Samsung series levels is an easy way to differentiate between quality levels.

I think the product is outstanding. The clarity of picture is striking. Set-up was largly intutitive. Basically I didn't need the instructions that came with the device. But it would have been good to have instructions on how to fine tune the picture for the room and ambient lighting conditions. There were none. There happend to be an article in the newspaper that week that was very useful.

FABULOUS TV. This my my 3rd Samsung HDTV. We needed a smaller one for the den and this is perfect. As always, Samsung's pictures are clear and vivid. We have 2 other Samsungs - one 32 in. and one 45 in. Will ALWAYS buy Samsung. Their refrigerators are great too.

I was a bit concerned when ordering this TV because of the comments regarding poor sound quality. I have not found that to be the case. The sound I am getting on this set is more than acceptable. Of course, if you're looking for theater-quality surround sound, you need better speakers. But for a bedroom set, this is just fine. I also found the set extremely easy to set up, and I have very little technical ability. The remote control is straight forward and simple to use, even without reading the manual. I have no hesitation about giving this TV a 5 star rating.

It was with reluctance that I moved into the 21st Century of TVs. Managed to do so just before June 12th. Now that we have this set we actually watch it more often than the old (13") one. We use a roof-top antenna and finally can watch the local PBS station. All the old stations, with the exception of one, now come in very well. The pictures are very clear. Had to play around with the setup, but I managed quite well and am satisfied. We do not have cable TV.
