Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Make movie night a special night with the advanced video and audio features of the Samsung TXN3275HF flat-screen, HD-ready TV. This 32-inch set features Samsung's Neo Side sound design, which includes control keys placed on the side where they won't clutter the clean look of the front of the silver cabinet. The TXN3275HF also offers 1080i and 480p display formats, 4:3 aspect ratio (with 16:9 enhanced mode), Samsung's DynaFlat anti-distortion, anti-glare flat picture tube, and a full complement of Samsung's advanced digital video features, including 3-line digital comb filter, velocity scan modulation, and 3:2 pulldown cinema conversion.

The TXN3275HF offers Samsung's Digital Pro Picture three-stage video processing system that produces a high-performance picture from both analog and digital sources. The Total DSP (Digital Signal Processing) improves analog to digital signal processing, the Pro Chip Plus converts all analog signals to the better flicker-free progressive scan, and the three-line digital comb filter analyzes multiple lines of picture information to minimize edge image artifacts while improving transition detail.

The 3:2 pulldown cinema video processing detects and compensates film--which is shot at 24 frames per second (fps) compared with video's 30 fps rate--to video for a smooth theaterlike experience at home. This set also features an Invar shadow mask (an alloy material used to attain better focus and brightness consistency), color temperature controls, and four video presets (standard, dynamic, movie, custom) that optimize the picture for brightness, sharpness, color, and tint.

It has a built-in 181-chanel NTSC tuner that receives MTS and SAP stereo broadcasts. You'll need a separate HDTV tuner to receive high-definition broadcasts. Its built-in speakers have 15 watts of power apiece and it features a headphone jack on the side of the set. Two component-video inputs allow you to connect an optional HDTV receiver or a source with component-video outputs. It also has 4 composite A/V inputs (3 rear, 1 side), 1 A/V output, 1 S-video input (side), and 2 RF inputs (rear).

Tech Talk
Aspect ratio: The aspect ratio refers to the shape of the video image. Standard television has a 4:3 aspect ratio, which is almost square in appearance. Digital television will have either a 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio, which is widescreen and appears rectangular, looking more like a movie screen and filling more of the viewer's field of vision for a more lifelike viewing experience.

Scanning method: Frames of video are made up of many lines of video that are scanned onto a television screen so closely they appear to be a solid picture. The scanning method can be either interlaced or progressive. Interlaced scanning (also used in today's analog TV), indicated by an "i" in the video format, fills in the odd number lines (1,3,5,7...) and then fills in the even number lines (2,4,6,8...) until the frame is complete. Progressive scanning, "p," fills in each line consecutively until the frame is complete, like a computer display.

What's in the Box
TXN3275HF 32-inch TV, remote control, 2 AA batteries, A/V cable, and printed operating instructions. It's backed by a 1-year parts and labor limited warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy from here!!!!!, December 15, 2003

Andrew (New Kensington, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Samsung TXN3275HF 32" DynaFlat HD-Ready TV (Electronics)

TV was broke right out of the box. I called tech depot to see if I could return the television but they denied ever shipping it to me. Called samsung and they sent a repairman to come and fix it but he said the tv's circuit board was cracked and that it's not covered under the warranty. So i'm stuck with a tv that doesn't work minus $800. Horrible experience with customer service they gave me the runaround and pretty much acted like they didn't know anything.
