Advantages: Under £350, well known make, gaming mode

Disadvantages: None to my knowledge

I bought this TV a few weeks ago, mainly to match up with my Playstation 3 which I have been playing on a CRT for months. Although it is priced cheaper elsewhere, I could not resist the security offered by John Lewis who sell this TV for £349 with a 5 year warranty. The TV was delivered swiftly and securely.

With its piano black looks this TV is certainly very pretty, and very slim. It was very easy to assemble straight out of the box. The screen is not reflective so is quite easy on the eye.

It took me a while to play with the setting, but it now looks excellent when playing PS3 and utilising its "Gaming Mode", there is very little lag and the frame rate is very smooth, certainly a lot smoother than the Toshiba I looked at in Tesco the other day. I am not a "techie" but this TV certainly looks excellent to my eye, and there are no dead pixels in sight. Its always worth playing with the settings though to get the picture best suited to you. The blacks are excellent and very deep, and colours look vivid and lifelike when settings are adjusted. It even copes with with Standard Definition.

The sound quality is also pretty good for a flat-screen TV, but naturally the limited space means its never going to compete with dedicated sound system.

Overall, it is an excellent TV for the price. Samsungs sell well for a reason, they are reliable and good quality, and the 5 year warranty is just too tempting.
