Samsung UE40B6000 Manufacturer's Information

The manufacturer's information about this product

Each of the three Samsung LED TV Series for 2009 boast high dynamic contrast ratios, complements of Samsung’s ground breaking LED light source. Compared to a traditional CCFL, LEDs produce darker blacks that appear endlessly deep to the eye. Whites also remain crisp and bright with vivid colours. The result is picture quality that measures up to the natural beauty of life. For instance, Samsung’s Wide Colour Enhancer Pro feature lets consumers enjoy a broader colour palette. The Ultra Clear Panel further allows the preservation of every detail even in brightly-lit, imperfect viewing conditions. This is done by effectively allowing more light to pass through the screen and simultaneously reducing reflections from ambient light.

Samsung’s entire LED HDTV line-up incorporates a number of innovative features to reduce the motion blur and image judder when displaying fast movement. All three series boast Samsung’s acclaimed Motion Plus™ frame interpolation technology. The 8000 Series uses a swift refresh rate of 200Hz – four times the rate of other TVs – that nearly eliminates the ill effects of displaying quick, action-packed motion. The 7000 and 6000 Series, with an also-quick 100Hz refresh rate helps ensure crisp, easy viewing of sports, video games and movies.

Samsung’s new LED TVs offer not only a lifelike viewing experience and a portal to the latest entertainment, but break free from the conventional limits of integrating a television into a room’s décor. By using LEDs, Samsung has been able to shave all three series down to ultra-thin depths. At less than 30mm depth, the sets remain trim without cutting back on connectivity options, nor foregoing a built in DTT tuner.

To further complement the svelte design of the new LED TVs, Samsung created an ultra-slim wall-mount solution – reducing the gap between the TV and the wall to around 0.6 inches, down from the two inches of bulkier solutions. The ultra-thin LED TV depth coupled with the new wall-mount solution allows for a simple installation akin to hanging a picture frame.

In 2008, Samsung created its unique Crystal TV™ design, which uses dual-injection molding to coat a translucent, coloured surface to achieve an attractive crystalline appearance. The latest evolution of Samsung’s Crystal TV™ design begins with a deep piano black bezel that fades into distinct chrome that finishes as a clear prism along the outer edges (8000 Series) or light ruby (7000 and 6000 Series) highlights. The intensity of the colour subtly changes depending upon the viewing angle, and further accentuates these TV’s slim bezels.
