This TV is identical to the 32 inch model: Consult the test of the Samsung LE32S86BD here.
- Pivoting base
- Efficient SD rescaling
- Good contrast
- Poor colors
- Image lacks sharpness
- Poor default settings
- Significant reframing of SD sources

In the end, the LE26S86BD produces a very nice image though a bit too soft and with mediocre colors. Luckily, not all eyes are sensitive to this last defect and in this case given the small price, it’s a good deal.
