Thin is in ... be it your waistline or your next TV. Samsung claims that the unique bezel design of the HL-T5687S 56” Slim LED DLP microdisplay makes it easy to fit into spaces that an equivalent-sized microdisplay TV cannot.

The 1080p native resolution of the HL-T5687S takes advantage of the influx of both HD discs and HD gaming consoles. In fact, it offers more HDMI inputs (total of three) than any other microdisplay listed in this roundup, providing video switching to various HD sources right from the HL-T5687S. MP3 files and photo JPEGs are accessible via the USB connection.

Additionally, the Samsung microdisplay features a solid-state LED light source that uses less energy and has a lifetime that exceeds that of traditional lamp-based sets. LED light sources also eliminate the rotating color wheel that can cause motion artifacts. The result is a smoother and more stable image.
