The picture quality from this TV is sharp and vivid, the black levels can become a little bothersome in dark scenes but otherwise, it?s a great looking TV that produces great visuals. The only big disappointment I had was the sound results from this TV; they just didn't produce the desired results for me. Also, don't get sold on the Game Mode idea, as it doesn?t really help gaming as much as it may seem. Get it as a TV for TV use because it works great with the Samsung Blu-ray player too. Its ability to turn into a 40" monitor is an added plus.

Samsung has again put together another awesome product and at a low price too. Like all portable digital audio players, one of the biggest downfalls is the included ear buds, but for such a moderately priced product it is expected. Another detail Samsung could work on is the audio output jack placement. Placing it off to the side not only breaks the sleek look, but it is also awkward and a waste of space. However, the audio quality, button layout, navigation, screen, and the ability to drag and drop both music and files directly into the player easily outweigh the minor design flaws. I would expect the YP-U2 to become a very popular product and a tough competitor in the lower-end digital audio player market.

Photo freaks will enjoy the great camera the Samsung A990 offers as well as the VCAST service and music player. However the phone has some issues with call quality and the camera UI ? specifically holding down the shutter button too long. The average consumer will most likely enjoy this phone and will get plenty of use out of it in the long run. Worth the buy if you haven?t upgraded in awhile and you use Verizon.

The Samsung 940BF is great at typing up homework assignments, chatting with friends, and unlike a whole lot of LCDs, it is great at games. The tiny bit of ghosting you?ll ever see is almost unnoticeable. Other than that, it provides a gaming experience on par with a CRT while only having a fraction of the weight and size. It?s perfect for those of you going off to a college with limited dorm space, or those of you that are just tired of lugging around your CRT to LANs. It?s video problems are grounded in the science itself, so we can?t fault them for that. Finally, at an online price of about $230, it is just as expensive as a high-end 19? CRT. At that price, and considering what you?re getting, you can?t do much better.

The Samsung Pro815 is a truly superb camera, with superior build quality, outstanding design, a great range of versatile, creative and in some cases unique features, very good performance and outstanding picture quality. The only real let-down is the sluggish autofocus, but other than that it?s a serious alternative to a digital SLR.

Overall, I was very impressed by the playback quality of this player and the Blu-ray format. I also find the additional feature of a memory card reader useful, but also very slow and disrupting at times. I enjoyed the improved menu integration being rendered through the Java environment on this player; the experience was very smooth and definitely better than what DVD has to offer.

This Samsung X11 is also is this sensibly priced area, not too bargain basement but not outrageously priced either. The Samsung X11 is available in a variety of specifications, but the one we have here is at the lower end, with 'only' a T2300 Intel Core Duo (1.66GHz) and an 80GB hard drive. The presence of a dual-core chip in a notebook is virtually a necessity at this price level and the T2300 is the slowest of the range, but still a great performer. On this model, this is only backed up with 512MB of DDR2 RAM, which is a bit 2004 - we'd want at least 1GB of RAM. Of course if this was supplied on two DIMMs you'd get dual-channel operation for added performance, but this would limit the upgrade path.

Ever since Motorola introduced their RAZR V3 cell phone, design has been a huge deciding factor for many when it comes to purchasing a new phone. Samsung's latest offering - the SGH-T509 - is an ultra- thin candy bar phone that puts both Motorola's RAZR and SLVR phones to shame, coming in at only 9.8mm thick. However, the SGH-T509 has its shortcomings and could be improved in many areas. This is a great phone for someone looking for pure fashion without functionality, but it even fails somewhat in the design department. Read on to find out why the T509 turns out to be a disappointing phone...

The D600 launched in Europe in October of 2005 and although it was clearly created to build on the success of the excellent D500, it also upped the ante by adding a slew of great features that weren't just there to pad out the spec sheet, they were actually worth paying for...

The SP50L7HXX's picture quality isn't quite state of the art by today's standards. But it's still good enough when combined with the dazzling design and impressively low price tag to make the SP50L7HXX a very desirable package for anyone hunting for huge pictures on a budget...

Overall I would have no problem recommending this player to someone wanting an all-in-one product in such a small package. With all these feature packed into one small ergonomic package, the only thing you might have a problem with is the initial price tag. But as many wise people say with respect to many characteristics of life...you get what you pay for...

Instead of playing with new form factors and radical designs, Samsung has simply adjusted the tried-and- true clamshell form factor to incorporate a 1.3 megapixel camera and an MP3 player into its MM- A920, available for Sprint's PowerVision EV-DO network. Read on...

More options are becoming available to consumers as LCD Monitors are growing to be a mainstream item. In fact, CRT displays will soon fade out and become a thing of the past. However, until that happens people should put some considerable thought into purchasing an LCD Monitor. The Samsung SyncMaster 940BF has a mediocre 19" display with a small bezel and some decent features. Unfortunately, these features are not enough to justify its high price tag. Perhaps if the monitor was designed better and the price was $100 lower, it would be the ultimate in displays of its class. Read on to learn more about the Samsung SyncMaster 940BF display...
