22 inch keeps pace!5
I have the 22 inch version of this model line (Samsung LN-22A330) for my bedroom, and am VERY impressed. The picture quality is fantastic, and it has settings where you can fine tune the settings for individual channels.

I have it on every morning for the news while I’m getting ready for work, and every night as I wind down and fall asleep (very appreciative of the person who first installed sleep timers on TVs).

I like everything about this unit, including the “tools” function on the remote for the most-used items in my house (including the sleep functions). There are “fun” settings, too…where you can choose not only your energy savings level, but also what type of image you’re watching…a “movie” versus reg tv….it deepens the color beautifully without actually changing the colors.

The only item I find disconcerting is the sheer amount of time it takes to respond to turning the unit ‘on’. Once you hit Power, just ignore it and ……………………………………………THEN you’ll hear the tones turning it on (tones may be set at different volumes and even turned off if you poke around in the menu long enough to find it).

Given time, I’ll certainly get used to the amount of time it is, but for now it’s bothersome as there is no other indicator that you actually hit the button correctly (the light on the power button on the tv doesn’t flash at first, nothing).

If I needed to replace this 22″ unit for some reason, I’d buy the same model again in a heartbeat. Very pleased with Samsung’s 330 line. Excellent value for the price for a bedroom tv.

Great Value4
I gave it 4 stars only because something has to be absolutely spectacular for me to give it 5 stars. Pretty much anything good that has been said about the set is true. I do have to take exception with the comments that it takes a long time to turn on. I took a stopwatch to it with the following results. From the time I pressed the power button it took 2.5 seconds for the “welcome tune” and about 9 seconds to deliver a picture. I expect that most people can live with that. I have two Sony Bravia sets that take about the same amount of time to start up. Overall, it’s a very good set and a solid value.

Thanks for the prior reviews5
I bought this product after reading the prior reviews. We bought this for a large bedroom and it is a great match for the room, great picture and excellent sound quality. This arrived two days after ordering via UPS even with the savings shipping. I would buy again.

Not for older components!4
This was my first LCD HD purchase. (I’m late to the party.) I chose Samsung, and paid a premium, for one silly feature, which is an on/off timer. Most TVs have sleep timers, but I used my little old 14″ JVC to wake up! I couldn’t find a reliable maker of LCDs that included an on timer except Samsumg. It not only has an on timer, it has three! Perfect for when you’re going to be away and want your TV to go off and on at different intervals to make it appear that someone is home. And of course, to serve as my alarm clock.

Sadly, I had to return the unit the following day. Why? Because even though the specs say that it has one composite and one component input, you can only use one or the other as it only has one video jack. Depending on your cable, you plug the video link into the one jack, and the audio into either of the remaining based on whether it’s composite or component. You cannot have two machines. I had my old VCR (yes, how quaint that I still use one) and a middle-aged DVD player–one of each. Of course if you have later model attachments, you can use the HDMI, etc. But be advised, this set has limitations for older toys.
As for the sound quality I have read about here and on other sites, I didn’t notice anything particularly wrong with it. There are about 5 different settings and admittedly one of them is tinny, but the sound was much richer when set to “movie,” and it includes an equalizer of sorts. The sound was perfectly enjoyable. So if connecting components doesn’t mean anything to you, I recommend it for bedroom or kitchen placement.

Good for price4
This LCD TV is great for the price. Perfect size for my home office. I have no issue with the picture or the sound. People need to be realistic. It is a 22″ TV, not meant to be the focal point of a home theatre. Easy plug and play setup takes about 5 minutes from box to functionality.

Nice lcd4
absolutely awesome tv.

everything but sound is perfect. its maximun level of volume is not as high as it should be. that make it a tv for a small room.

some movies are recorded with low volume. to hear them you need a very quiet environment when you are watching this.

Unbelievable!5
I decided to replace a 5-year old 15″ analog LCD TV in my computer hutch – the digital reception with a converter was not bad, but I decided to go with a slightly larger HDTV in hopes of receiving an even better picture. I researched 19″ and 22″ TVs extensively for several months before ultimately deciding on the Samsung LN22B650 (despite the lack of reviews at this time.) I do not have cable and am only using an old antenna that I mounted in the attic 28 years ago.

I’ve had this TV for a little over a week now and although I can usually find fault with anything, I cannot find a single thing about this unit that I don’t like! With the Super-Saver shipping from Amazon, it was on my doorstep 5 days after I placed the order. Minimal assembly and setup was easy and within minutes I had over 30 channels, many of which the digital converter had not located. The picture is absolutely stunning – the HDTV broadcasts are like nothing I’ve ever seen before on a home television set, to the point of being almost three-dimensional. I haven’t owned a plasma or HDTV before, so for those of you that are already used to this type of great picture, please bear with me. The factory defaults for color, brightness, etc. deliver a very life-like and pleasing picture (actually, it can be too life-like – every wrinkle, hair out of place, and even the makeup on newscasters is far more obvious.) There are many user-changeable options if something doesn’t quite suit you. The picture size can be changed from 16:9 to 4:3 for older shows, and the unit will “remember” this for that particular channel until you change it. The sound can be changed to one’s liking with the built-in equalizer and is of good quality for a TV of this size. I didn’t expect, nor do I need a sound system on a small TV that will rattle the windows – the sound from this unit’s two speakers is perfectly adequate for my needs. Bear in mind that I’m sitting about 4 feet away; across a large room, the sound may be a little weak. As with any LCD TV, it needs to be sitting about eye level for optimal viewing, and the screen tilts as needed (oddly enough though, the tilt mechanism is actually in the body of the set rather than on the stalk or the base as is typical, but once you figure that out, it works just fine.)

At the risk of sounding like an ad for Samsung, I cannot say enough good things about this unit. The picture quality is truly amazing – you must see it to believe it. I hate to say it, but even the commercials look really good.

By the way, the Amazon listing (and many other sellers as well) is erroneous on the “red touch of color” – it’s charcoal, not red. From what I understand the “A” series units from 2008 were red and the “B” 2009 units are charcoal. Not a big deal for me personally though – it looks quite good. Also the depth measurement is shown as 15.9″, but it’s actually slightly less than 8″.

If a 22″ HDTV is what you’re looking for, I don’t see how you can do any better than this. The Amazon price was low as well (although they came out with a $50 off coupon a week after I bought this, which currently makes it the lowest price anywhere!)

Bang for Buck5
This tv is so nice. The picture is stunning, and I got it for like 325 with an Amazon Coupon that they had. I am so glad they did this, because I probably would have gotten something worse, because I don’t think anything can beat this TV for that price. Apart from being tremendous picture, the look of the tv is also chic since its not as boring as the old/other samsungs that are just in a black casing. This one is sort of clear and the stand is small, durable and clear as well. It looks like a fancy computer monitor.

Nice TV at a good price5
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.
