Continuing our reviews of Samsung’s new line of LCD displays, dubbed the Series 4, our newest set is the Samsung LN32A330. With a maximum retail price of $749, this 32-inch, 720p set improves upon the smaller models in the series with a 8,000:1 contrast ratio, much better brightness, and a response time of 6 ms, which makes it much more suitable for gaming and use as a PC monitor. The set comes in that familiar bezel-black finish that most Samsung models do, and looks much better than most other HDTVs when it comes to aesthetics. A quick peek at the features and specifications.

The LN32A330 is getting rave reviews from various sources. The unit is a little wobbly when used with a stand, but that should not cause much concern if you plan on wall mounting the display – which by the way is highly recommended, keeping in mind that the unit is only 3.2 inches deep. Picture was slightly grainy on regular television, but that is a given on large screen sizes. HD content, on the other hand was top-notch, as one would expect from a high-quality display such as this. The remote control was equally responsive and well-laid out. The device worked great when used as a PC monitor, and displayed picture slideshows and video without a hitch. The two included speakers also are a notch above the other models in the series, at 10 watts each. One minor qualm we had with this set was the lack of other tuner options beside NTSC. But apart from that, the Samsung LN32A330 is one of the best displays we’ve seen. Highly recommended!
