Footprint of the 32″ stand: 25.5″ x 6.1″
Borders
The borders of Samsung 32J4003 are relatively thick, given the small size of the TV, so they’re a bit more noticeable.
Picture Levels
Like most VA TVs, the Samsung 32J4003 has an excellent contrast ratio. This results in deep blacks, which is especially noticeable in a dark room. But Samsung 32J4003 doesn’t have a local dimming feature.
The sides of the screen are noticeably darker, but there is little dirty screen effect in the center, which is great for sports fans. Like most VA TVs, the image degrades when viewed at an angle. Due to the small size of the TV, this effect is more noticeable.
The Samsung 32J4003 has decent black uniformity, results in cloudy blacks in dark scenes, which can be distracting. Overall, the Samsung 32 inch TV has good reflection handling. Bright reflections aren’t diffused much across the screen, so they might still be distracting in a bright room.

TV Shows

Video Games
This is a good TV for playing video games. It has outstanding low input lag, resulting in a very responsive gaming experience, and it has a great response time.

HDR Movies
