 Ultimate, cheap, HD dorm TV |

| Reviewer: DVyas, |
I ordered this TV on Thanksgiving night 2008 from OfficeMax. I had it sent to my dorm in Berkeley. This TV totally does its job. It acts as a great second monitor and as a great TV. The local HD channels look great on this thing (when I have my antenna properly adjusted). I also use it to play my Wii games. Using component cables, this TV excellently converts the 480p video output from my Wii to match the 1080p resolution of the screen, the video does not feel laggy or grainy. Also it remembers whether you prefer 4:3 or 16:9 for you SD TV viewing, so you don't have to keep resetting your preference each time you start it up like on lower-quality TVs
(side note: I don't know how anyone can stand to watch SDTV stretched to 16:9 when it is meant to be 4:3, it makes everyone look short and fat)
The only con I can see with this TV is that it lacks composite and S-Video inputs. The DVI, VGA, and 2 HDMI inputs are great, but that lack of a second component input or any composite inputs makes it difficult to use multiple non-HD devices on it.
I strongly recommend this TV. |
Great as a monitor, but make sure you set HDMI 1 as PC

| If you are going to use this as a monitor with a computer using an HDMI output, go to "Menu" "Input" then drop down to "Edit Name" and select that. Then choose "HDMI1" and scroll down and select "PC." This will correct the display for the PC text. Once I figured this out, I was very happy with my purchase. Beautiful picture! |
I already spend to much time in the kitchen!

| I installed this TV behind the sink in my kitchen. I thought maybe I could watch the news while I washed the dishes. I now have a tall stool in my kitchen and watch TV way too much. This is simply one of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen, and I'm a Photographer. This is bargain for the money. The sound is good, it would be nice if the sound amp was a little bigger. But if it was, then I would never leave the kitchen. "Perfect" for the job and place is an under statement. Makes me want to have two kitchens, LOL. Hmm, maybe the bathroom. Then I would be Fat and Clean. BTW 24" would have been to tall to fit under the cabinets. |
Great TV and PC monitor.

| The Samsung 2333HD 23in LCD TV HDTV 1080p is simply the best overall Full HDTV on the market for the price. I picked this TV up at Staples for only $249.00. It is full HD which means that all of the major Network news and sports programs completely fill up the screen in high definition at 1920 x 1080 pixels. It is simply an amazing picture for this price. The added bonus is that it can hook up to your pc to extend or mirror your screen. I have a laptop pc and I use the 2333HD as an extension of my desktop which is 1600 x 1200. It is real nice to have that much desktop space when working with multiple documents and programs. The back of the TV has component color inputs for a DVD player as well as HDMI and DVI inputs for other video components. Samsung really rules this end of the market. I only wish they had kept the picture in picture that they had in the 20" MP unit in 2005. They discontinue models frequently and it is sad that some units do not survive the market because of competition of the demands of consumers. |
Best 1080P I've witnessed!

| I'm a Blu-ray aficionado. But I let my wife have use of our living room tv to watch her shows from our DVR. I connect a long HDMI cable from our Samsung (BDP1590C) Blu-ray player to this 23" TV. I sit about 18-23" away from the screen and watch my Netflix Blu-rays with headphones! WOW, and WOW! I'm in my own IMAX world. Totally immersed in the film with nearly 60 degrees of lateral visual field. I like the physical buttons on the right edge of the unit. I've tried other Samsungs with the lighted touch panel buttons on the front, and were not impressed. We also use this for our computer via DVI. Toggling back and forth is easy with the top right button. I use earphones to watch my films. Also, it's not mentioned, but this TV does pick up and display 24fps, added bonus, booyah... |
Great for College

| This TV/Monitor does exactly what I want it to do. I use it as a TV mainly, and then every now and then I plug my Laptop into it via HDMI Cable, to turn it into a Monitor. Its small and very portable, so I can take it home with me whenever I go home on a break, and the PS3 looks amazing on it, running in 1080P. |
A superb picture quality with outstanding value

I was surpised to see such a crisp output. The blacks are very deep and the noise reduction is awesome. I also hooked this up to my PC and it really helps with my multi tasking needs.
Also it is a great value. I picked this up for 300 which was well worth it. |

| I bought two of these. One for me and one for a friend. I use mine for my monitor and a quickie on TV. It works really good as either. I didn't know there was so much difference in the 720 and 1080dpi. The installion was so easy I thought I must have made a mistake. My friend uses his for TV only. My friend is illiterate when it comes to installations. His wife did it for him in less than 10 minutes. No adjustments were required on either one except connecting the antenna. I am now thinking of getting me another Samsung 1080 TV for the home. |
