The Samsung LN32B460 32 Inch 720p LCD HDTV - 720p Technology Explained

By Phil Edgar

The new Samsung LN32B460 has been selling fast all over the world since its release in April 2009. This neat 32 inch HDTV is top of the line when it comes to audio and picture quality.

Its technological features are top of the line. However, there are some qualities of this HDTV that some shoppers are not one hundred percent clued up on. So what is 720p technology?

The number 720 stands for the number of horizontal scan lines of display resolution or 720 pixels of vertical resolution. The letter p stands for progressive scans.

A typical 720p HDTV screen with 16:9 widescreen resolution has a vertical resolution of 720 pixels and a horizontal resolution of 1280 pixels. That means it has a total of 921,600 pixels. This will provide nothing but crystal clear images for viewers.

The more pixels your TV has the better. If you were to compare an old camera phones images with the images of a top of the line digital camera, the difference would be clear. The digital camera's images would be much sharper and clearer. That's because a digital camera's images have many more pixels on them - the same principal goes for HDTVs.

Another great technological feature of the Samsung LN32B460 32 inch 720p LCD HDTV is its SRS TruSurround HD technology. The audio quality is great. The SRS TruSurround HD technology ensures that you always high frequency detail, rich bass sounds and clear dialogue, no matter what you're watching. This is all via the standard pair of 10 watt speakers that come with the TV.

This Samsung model also comes with a game mode feature. The game mode is specially tailored for video gaming by enhancing certain audio features and colors. It also speeds up the image processing response time which helps to fight motion blur when it comes to action or sports games. This is all controlled via a touch of a button on your remote control.

I ordered my Samsung LN32B460 32 inch LCD HDTV from an online retailer and I would certainly recommend that anyone thinking of buying one to do the same. Online retailers don't have to pay for a store on the high street or floor staff, so they're able to pass these savings onto their customers. Most online retailers will have your HDTV delivered to your door within 2-3 days for free! - 29967
