i want to ask, i got a samsung series 6 32" full HD, after i on it for some time, not very long, the screen of the LCD will become hotter than the backside of the LCD, is it normal? after few hours it getting really hot, i can feel the heat without touching the screen, is it really normal?

i didnt take the temperature reading using thermometer, so dont ask for the temperature readings, i just use my hand and touch, 70c maybe...

I'm using Toshiba Regza 32" now and don't have such problem. Only feel warm not hot after few hours i turn it on.

My Sony and Panny only skin warm even after many hours. LCD not suppose to be hot to the touch. Better send ur unit for check out.

wah.....need to send back to check ar? no other full HD to backup wor

no other solution?? i on the ceiling fan also the same only

the screen is hot all the time..
nothing to worry..

even last time the CRT also can be hot...

no ler, last time CRT only backside hot, but now my LCD side hot

If its like that from day one then I guess there's nothing to worry about but if only recently then something might be wrong. Maybe same model owner can give comment. My understanding is LCD does not have heat problem like CRT and this shows with my 2 LCD I have compared to my other 2 CRT I still have.

If you can still hold your hands on the screen for 5 secs or more I guess it shouldn't be a problem. but the easiest way to check is to go back to the shop you bought your LCD and ask them if you can touch their screen for comparison.
better ask them first .. if not they'll scold you for leaving DNA's on their LCD.

my panny also not hot after many hours, just warm, both panel and back.
Only plasma tv is hot, cause consuming > 350W.
The hottest model is the panny PY800 that consume ~ 500W, and I can feel that it is very very very hot !!!

but the temperature is equivalent to my laptop temperature (judge from my hand) after use...

which is around 70c to 80c

Bro, if 70 to 80C, probably your palm will get burn or scalded. Sure?

my samsung is hot..but not hot until you can't put ur hand on the screen...

What model is your LCD TV? Let ,me check user review.

when my laptop shows 80c above i go touch it the sensation is the same, of coz not inside the chip, the surface of the laptop, which is almost or at least 60c

of coz i can still put my hand on it

Samsung LA32A650A1R

Bro u really need to get a temp gun

out of budget already, later need to buy PS3 game leh

if still can put a hand on it..should be ok rite?
and ur laptop u sure is C?not F?

Dont think ur set have problem
Or are you max your LCD TV Contrast and backlight?

My Sony panel average temp is about 37C and at the back about 40C. My backlight set at 4 (max 10). Yes I use temp gun and not body thermometer

70~80C could probably make pan fry egg already. If you your body can feel the heat .. 50C will already start burning.
