    CNET Review

    October 29, 2008

    The Good: Extensive picture adjustments; accurate color; built-in DVD player; uniform screen.

    Review Summary: As for the television's design, the 32LG40 stands-out a little when placed inside a room. The bezel surrounding the screen is glossy black, and along the bottom there's a thick strip of deep red plastic, similar to that Samsung's other set. The set ...
