Samsung 20 in. TOC Monitor/HDTV,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Samsung T200HD 20-inch Touch of Color LCD HDTV Widescreen Monitor (Electronics)
Received this last week and so far couldn't be happier.
I'm using this as a HDTV only hooked up by HDMI to my cable box.
Great hi def picture and pretty good sound.
SD pictures are not as good but plenty watchable.
I have it sitting on my desk next to my Dell 2407 (1920 by 1200) computer monitor and from about 3 feet, the TOC is the perfect size and the HD picture looks great.
As someone reviewing the 22 in. TOC said, it is a 16:10 screen so you get about .6 in. of black screen on the top and bottom when viewing a 16:9 hdmi input, but it doesn't bother me.
Someone also said that not filling the screen will cause burn-in.
I have hundreds of hours playing games on my 24 in. 1080p LCD with an un-filled screen and have not had a problem, so I'm not worried.
Some shows on my cable fill the screen so it's not as if that part of the screen is always black.
Oh yeah, 3 year warranty for monitors instead of 1 yr for TVs...Read more

I have this Momitor/HDTV wired to my OTA. All the local digital signals come in great. If I had one complaint, the Monitor does not come with mounting holes on the back to use a under cabinet or wall mount.

Samsung Touch Of Color T200HD 20-inch LCD HDTV Monitor,

I have had this item for 2 weeks now We use "over the air" antennae and have since 1991. We compare paid vs "OTA" and "OTA" still wins for us.
The reception is superb. I get a few more channels than on our 42", 1080P Sharp, which I also love. The sound is very good and the remote is user friendly and easy to set up. We have it over our refrigerator and the picture is like a negative standing underneath, but I have an articulating arm on order which should solve this problem. (1 week later - after attempting to install my mounting arm I re-read the previous review to see what they wrote about no mounting holes. Bummer. I wouldn't let it stop me from this purchase though, unless this is an absolute requirement).
I got it for $300 and have not seen a better deal anywhere before and since. I am now looking for a 32" for our bedroom.
I would recommend this unit to anyone.
