Summary
Samsung's SlimFit line of low-profile CRTs was a last-ditch attempt to compete against the emergence of flat panel displays. With a unique low-profile tube design, these TVs are about 2/3 as deep as a standard TV of the same size. However, this innovation proved to be short lived.
The TX-T2782 is similar in appearance to the TX-T2793H. However, it is a standard SDTV and uses a very different chassis design. It features composite and component video inputs; unlike the HD models it doesn't support S-Video.

Notes
The extremely high deflection angle of these tubes means that they're very sensitive to yoke alignment. Because of this, they have a reputation for poor geometry. This can usually be corrected, however, and with some work they can have a very good picture. For more information, see the "Adjusting a Flat CRT Yoke" page.
Another consequence of the slim tube design is that dot pitch near the edges and at the corners is much coarser than in the center.
These TVs have a USB port on the back, which was intended for firmware updates. In practice, it doesn't serve any purpose, although it is useful as a power source.
Equipped with an ATSC digital tuner, this TV is still capable of receiving modern broadcast television with a suitable antenna.
This model of TV appears to have been produced with 2 chassis variants - K64B and K64C. They are noticeably different and use several different components.
