- It' a great TV/Monitor and is wall mountable
- There seems to be some confusion whether or not the T220HD can be wall mounted. Granted it does not have the VESA holes but SamsungParts has a wall mount adapter WMB1900T 19-22 VESA 100X100 bracket. Why Amazon doesn't show this item as an accessory for the T220/T220HD I don't know. As far as the T220HD goes it has all the bells and whistles you need the only thing i think is missing is a USB hub. This link should get you to the bracket. Wall Mount Bracket 19-22"

- Another excellent Samsung monitor
- This is our second Samsung HDTV monitor and it lives up to the 32" we have. We have it connect to a HD cable box, a HDMI DVD player and an aerial. The picture is as good as you can imagine, excellent color and contrast.
There are a few issues that you might be interested in:
The sound is dreadful, not bad but dreadful. I guess Samsung assumes you are going to use a separate sound system. I put together a sound set up with some old multimedia speakers I have (Klipsch) and an optical to analog audio converter Digital Audio To Analog Audio Converter and use the cable box AC socket to power up the audio system but most people don't want to figure out something like this. Samsung really should make a one piece model with decent forward facing speakers.
Our HDMI cables arrived a few days after the set so we used the component input first. On this set it's clearly softer then the HDMI inputs so if you have HDMI compatible devices, use it.
Our cable system uses HD boxes that don't talk well with the Samsung. Sometimes we get an error message that implores us to use component instead of HDMI but it goes away quickly and the box works anyway. This was a problem with our first Samsung two years ago and it hasn't been dealt with yet. Also the cable box sometimes puts out a signal that causes a slight contrast change at the top and bottom of the picture. It changes with the channel. It never happens with the DVD player or the aerial.
We live in an apartment so the aerial reception is spotty. Our 32" set which is far from the windows gets better reception then this set which is next to a window. Is this due to the tuner in this set? We can't tell yet.
This is an excellent purchase as long as you know the sound problems. - 2008-11-18, 2 of 2 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Samsung 22" HD tv
- Terrific television for the money. 5+ stars. Only fault is the quality of
the speakers. Great deal for the price though. - 2008-11-12, 1 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Great buy
- Great product. This single monitor is a two in one, television and a computer monitor. This monitor provides great picture quality. I don't have cable TV, so I just bought a cheap attenna from Bestbuy and plug it into the back of the monitor and I get about 12 crystal clear, digital channels. The remote control is easy to switch back and forth between TV and computer input. I would recommend this product to anyone.

- A bit blurry
- I was hoping for better. This was my first HDTV. When watching the olymipics in Hi-definition, the picture was blurry during the fast action sequences. With Regular cable, the picture is very grainy and not that nice. For people looking for watching TV NOT with Hi-definition, stick with a regular aspect TV. I don't like watching tv with short and fat people as happens when you stretch the picture to fill the screen if the transmission is not in 16x9. If you don't stretch it, you will have black bars to the left and right of the picture. It looks nice though when watching a channel in high definition in 16x9 aspect. I recently bought a plasma HDTV and don't have the blurry picture so perhaps it's this TV and not the HD experience overall. As a computer monitor, yhe screen is a bit dark even after adjusting all available picture controls. In fact the tv picture is a bit dark too.
