Yeah, looks like it. Bought a 4 series last Christmas for the same price from Harvey Norman.
Now, let's see if JB actually carries any instock…
still a pretty good deal, 1080p for under 1k and a top brand
Very good deal.
Judging by specs, photo, the model is the LA32B550. Usually not seen below $1100~. $1000 would be good. This is great.
I want a TV for the bedroom, but realistically how big is 32" it seems quite small, as my PC monitor is 24"….
should I just wait and save a bit more and get a 42" ?
Depends on the viewing angle & distance between your bed & the TV (and of course your eyesight), just google "TV viewing distance" and you'll get your choice of calculators/matrices to help you work it out! ;)
A lot of people (read:most) would find a 42" too big for the bedroom. And no that wasn't a double entendre.
Posting to also give positive feedback on the TV. Great TV, and a mega bargain for that price :D
Deal
If I am watching within 1 meter, do you think it will be good to use for browsing internet? are the text clear enough?
This is not 100hz, am I right?
Thinking to buy 26inch pc monitor for $550 or get this one.
i have a 32" full HD samsung sittin at the end of my bed..i feek it's just the right size for anything i'm watching.
as for web browsing..at 1920x1080 resolution i find text too small and often need to use the shortcut key Ctrl + scroll wheel to make text size larger to read…not a real issue for me. tho to be honest i havent really bothered looking art things like cleartype settings or whatever…hope that helps!
I agree 100% with that… I have a 40" running at 1920x1080, connected to my HTPC… and I had to increase the DPI, as well as using the shortcut to make the text size larger to read. My eyesight is probably just bad though, but I can't use it for too long or my eyes start to hurt. I have zero issues sitting at a desk using a normal computer though!
The local Good Guys catalogue has the 40" Full-HD Samsung for a shade under $1400 I think….. I will have to double check, I swear I saw it at that price…!
I bought this model from JB about six months ago and got them down to $1100 with 5 year warranty, so this is a good deal.
wow.. i hope they still have it in store tonight.. and I hope my g/f approve the purchase :D
yeah thats right $1398 for the full hd 40 inch. tough decision - 32 or 40 inch…..
Hi guys, called up Macquarie JB. It is the Samsung Series 4 32inch (LA32B450). Is it still a good price? available for about $865.oo online Love any thoughts…
$865 for the lower end model? No thanks, spend the extra $34 and go for a model worth hundreds more.
The LA32B450 is not Full HD. Good TV, but not a good deal compared to this.
Just to clarify this: the correct model number for the Samsung 32" Full HD TV deal adveristed at $899 is:
LA32B550K1F. Offer Ends Sunday…
Which one? Also The Good Guys catalogue has the Samsung UA46B8000XF advertised at $1396. Called them up, obviously a mistake, do they have to honour the price advertised or offer me an alternate?
Which store are you looking at? the catalog for Joondalup WA has the UA46B8000XF as $4599, and the LA40B530P7F for $1396.
is this the series 5? or 4?
series 5
Sorry wrong TV at the Good Guys, but JB Macquarie & the web site have the LA32B450 for the special price, not the series 5.
the LA32B450 is not full hd, the tv here is, and is a series 5
try another jb
Clicking on the $899 buy it now online button goes to: http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/plasma-lcd-tvs/lcd-tv/samsung…
Which says it's $1198 online. But at least the address confirms the model as la32b550k1f.
offer available in store only
Then they should not have a buy online option on the page showing it for $899

How good is if I want to use it as a replcement computer monitor? and Ps3?
Excellent for PS3, depends on your usage if you want to use it as a computer monitor (like what you'll be viewing, where you will be viewing it from etc..)
hmmm, I currently have a 24inch Dell, tempted getting the samsung and sell my dell!
DO IT!!!!!!!!!!
Don't give up your dell unless you only watch tv on it. If you have the dell i'm thinking of and makes a occurence on ozbargain pretty regularly, it has a lot higher resolution than the samsung or any other tv is capable of.
Try and get it for $860! My mole at JB tells me that they are still making 40 bucks! iF not, still a great price
Series 5 confirmed. Called JB Hornsby & Macquarie, Hornsby have 2 in stock & Macquarie about 18 at this stage. thanks for the great post!!
mmmm, I'm tempted to buy one as a monitor, my main concern is that its a 50hz rather than 100hz.
For those looking at buying, i suggest you get in early, the store i called (Elizabeth, SA) has 20 in stock at most, and recommended getting in early tomorrow.
EDIT: After reading the users manual online, it appears to support 60hz with HDMI.
Also, Bing Lee is $11 less :p
http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/16838and this deserves a neg why?
Most of australia can't get to a bing lee
Plus JB are always great in matching prices and I'm sure they would nock off like $10
Stupid neg vote.
$11 dollars difference and JB is Australia wide. Not like ur post.
Idiot!
Mate, there's no Bing Lee in WA.
Well, maybe there is.. somewhere, sitting on a couch at his home.. but he ain't selling no LCD TV!
:)
lol
Bing Lee kinda died recently. I hope he's not still on the couch.
Deep breaths. Nobody needs to neg or be negged.
Availability is not comparable for a negative vote.
The negfight at the OB corral!
I wish I could transcribe that pre-gunfight whistle from "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly"! :p
Korean Won crashing. Expect more like this!
my guess is its a series 5
http://www.samsung.com/au/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=te…
says the RRP for the series 5 is $1,299
