February 2011
Compromise on price but not on features. Samsungs affordable 550 LCD HDTV series delivers Full HD resolution, playback of files from USB drives or over your home network from DLNA Certified devices, a wealth of HDMI inputs, and plenty more, all wrapped up in Samsungs eye-catching "Touch of Color" design.
Crisp, Clear Picture Quality From a TV With a True Sense of Style
1080p Full HD With Four HDMI Inputs
The LN32D550 delivers Full HD 1080p resolution, for a superb level of detail and clarity in your picture. To connect your sources, four separate HDMI inputs are provided, for delivering a Full HD picture and audio over a single cable.
Touch of Color Design
Samsung's "Touch of Color" design features a hint of amber color naturally blended into Samsung's traditional piano black bezel frame, for eye-catching style even when your TV is turned off.
Exceeds ENERGY STAR Standards
The LN32D550 exceeds the strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and US Department of Energy by up to 30%. That means you get lower utility costs, and a smaller carbon footprint.
ConnectShare Movie
Connect a thumb drive or digital camera quickly and easily via the LN32D550's USB port. An intuitive, user-friendly interface allows access to videos, music, or pictures via the remote.
AllShare DLNA Networking
For even more entertainment options, the LN32D550 lets you connect to your home network and stream music, videos, and photos from other DLNA Certified devices (your computer, network storage drive, etc.).
Game Mode
The LN32D550 features a "game mode," which turns off much of the picture processing for a faster video response. This is ideal for fast-paced video sources like video game systems, and will help gamers get the performance they're after.
Audio Performance
SRS' TheaterSound, available in new Samsung HDTVs, is an all-in-one audio suite that directly addresses the three most common consumer TV audio complaints--inconsistent volume levels, unintelligible vocals, and poor, dimension-less sound. SRS helps ensure you get great audio from the LN32D550's two 10-watt speakers, and additional technologies like Dolby Digital Plus and support for multi-channel sound (MTS) add even more on the sonic side of things.
PC Connectivity
The LN32D550 also features a PC input, so you an use it as a computer monitor.
