Touch of Color

Touch of Color Inspired by designs from the automotive and fashion industries, Samsung's unique unique Transparent and Opaque Color molding process creates a clean, smooth finish infused with a hint of a translucent color during the manufacturing process for an ultra-sleek appearance.


InfoLink

Touch of Color Up-to-the-minute access to weather, news, sports and stock information is just a cable and a click away through the HDTV's Ethernet port and new InfoLink RSS service. An all-new user interface with digital contents management guide provides intuitive navigation and access to both internal and external content.


Auto Motion Plus 120Hz

auto motion plus 120Hz This technology doubles the frame rate from 60 to 120 frames per second (120Hz LCD panel) without repeating the same image to make more frames. Instead, the TV intelligently calculates the `middle' image between frame A and frame B and inserts it in between (Auto Motion Plus 120Hz processor), making a fluid transition from one frame to the next.

Super Clear Panel

super clear panel
Samsung enhances the clarity of select LCD HDTVs by replacing the light-diffusing plastic face of traditional LCD HDTVs with a natural black panel with a clear anti-glare shield. Reduced reflection of external light creates a new dimension in image clarity, highlighting black and darkened areas, enabling vibrant, more compelling colors and a brighter, clearer picture. Black will never again appear grayish. Black details will show in vivid black even in dark scenes.

The latest version of Samsung's breakthrough super clear panel technology makes colors appear more vibrant and blacks even deeper than ever. Enhanced films reduce glare and optimize off-angle viewing.



50,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio/500 nit Brightness

25,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio 50,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio will give you a picture better than you ever thought possible, with whiter whites, blacker blacks and a nearly infinite subtlety of gradations in between. As two of the most important determining factors in overall picture quality, contrast and brightness levels achieve new heights in this latest generation LCD panel. Samsung's new LCD TV's give the most stunning realistic picture quality ever.


Full HD 1080P

full HD 1080P Full HD, or 1080p, contains 1.5 times more scanning lines than conventional HD TVs. More scanning lines mean more pixels, more details and a better picture. The new Samsung LCD TV with resolution that is approximately 2 times greater than conventional HDTVs, creating the most perfect picture imaginable.

Samsung's 1080p panel uses a new high-speed liquid crystal to cut response time to 4ms. The fast response time, coupled with Samsung's Auto Motion Plus 120Hz motion blur reduction technology dramatically reduces motion blur and judder.

Wide Color Enhancer/Cold Cathode Flourescent Lamp

The NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) has established the color standards all TVs in America try to meet. And typical LCD TVs only meet about 72% of this standard. Samsung LCD HDTVs use Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp backlights to give you 92% coverage of the NTSC standard, ensuring truer, more breathlessly vivid colors.

Samsung's exclusive Wide Color Enhancer technology delivers more brilliant colors, even in bright areas of the picture where blues and greens are washed out on conventional screens. The system displays wider color reproduction, showing you truer colors - the fresh green of spring foliage, the intense blue of the summer sky.

Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA)

DLNA logo

dlna daisy chain
You already know something about digital living. There's the TV and digital video recorder in your family room. (And another set in your bedroom.) You have a PC and digital printer in your office, along with a network attached storage device. And you've copied all your music onto your portable music player and haven't had to open a CD case for years. But getting them to talk to each other can be pretty tough. Why is it still so difficult to send digital content from one device to another?

Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a collaboration of the world's leading consumer electronics, PC and mobile companies that has created design guidelines for a new generation of products that can work together — no matter the brand.

Think for a moment about all of the photos "locked away" on your home PC that you wish you could access while entertaining your friends and family. Now, thanks to DLNA enabled devices, a DLNA-enabled PC can be accessed from the comfort of your living room or family room via a DLNA-enabled HDTV, where you can enjoy your memories with friends and family, without having to deal with the hassle and non-intuitive "PCexperience".

Or, say you recently downloaded your daughter's birthday party video from your digital camcorder to your PC. Now you want to share it with your parents who are visiting. Without DLNA, you probably have to burn a DVD of the video or hook up the camcorder to the TV. With DLNA, you can just use your TV's remote to call up the video on your TV. That's it.



Super Patterned Vertical Alignment

Audio Features

TruSurround is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience through any two-speaker playback system, including internal television speakers and headphones. It is fully compatible with all multichannel formats up to 5.1 channels. High-quality virtual surround sound can be experienced with just the two hidden, downward-firing side-mounted 2.2-channel dome speakers built into the TV.

SRS TruSurround XT technology delivers an amazing, simulated 3D effect with clear dialog and powerful bass.

TruSurround XT audio also adds three audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience.
  • Dialog Clarity brings movie dialog into Focus during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper.
  • TruBass creates incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself.
  • The SRS WOW feature widens the soundstage by processing standard two-channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo audio over a two-speaker system.
Stereo broadcast reception is offered for MTS and SAP with 181-channel capacity. A sound leveler keeps audio volume consistent during channel changing.


Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?

HDTV Size chart
With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience.
If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.
  • Minimum size = Viewing distance/3
  • Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

2 out of 5 stars "halo effect" intolerable   August 21, 2008
Beautiful-looking set, amazing picture, but the "halo effect" (fuzzy reflection of the edge of the picture in the 45-degree clear edge of the bezel) is extremely distracting and simply inexcusable in a higher-end TV like this... in any TV at all, really. What was Samsung thinking? Did they not notice this during testing, or (and I struggle to believe this) did they actually intentionally build in this "feature" as some people claim to have been told by customer service? At best, people tolerate it, but many, including my significant other and I, aren't willing to deal with it. Had an ambivalent viewing experience for 3 days, then decided to return the set. Hoping the 850 won't have this ridiculous characteristic, but the images I've seen so far look as though it has the same 45-degree clear bezel edge... awaiting the reviews.


5 out of 5 stars very pleased exceptional lcd tv   August 19, 2008
This is the best picture on any lcd tv, and most plazma tv's I viewed. I spent several weeks looking for what I felt had the best picture, reputation, and overall "look". I heard bad reports on Amazon shipping on large tv's, and they were not true in my case, the item came in good condition, and 5 days early, with excellent service by the driver and his helper. The shipper was CEVA.


5 out of 5 stars LOVE IT! Thanks AMAZON & Ceva!   August 18, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

We researched a bit and shopped around like most people do when they are about to shell out a chunk of benji's! :-) Reviews of the 650 were very helpful, and surprisingly the price difference between the two models was only a few dollars!!!! :-) We ordered on a Monday and surprisingly CEVA delivered on a Friday, 3 days earlier than expected! CEVA white glove delivery was professional and we were impressed at how quick the set up was. He didn't wait for the entire channel scanning to complete, but everything worked and we kept the box just in case.

The lcd sits on a media table using the non-swivel/tilt stand. The lcd looks so awesome - a perfect addition and upgrade from my Sony 27in flat screen tube. The TOC is very subtle - and often times I don't notice it. We have yet to purchase a blu ray, but the dvd upconverter makes the picture quality of old DVDs AMAZING!! The HD channels I have access to right now are also very stunning! We're really enjoying this new set and watching the olympics with such clarity - love 120HZ! Have not really adjusted the settings, but I agree with others that the "click wheel" remote takes some time to get used to.

We did notice the "halo effect" on the bezel when we watch in the dark - but this is only slightly noticeable at certain angles. The picture quality is so brilliant that we are not at all distracted by it.

We'll be looking into blu ray that also has a dvd-r. Any recommendations? Is this device out yet?

Oh, any chance that swivel/tilt stands from older model samsung can work with this one? I like how the 650 swivels. :-)



5 out of 5 stars Superb picture quality and great sound   August 17, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

After doing a lot of research online, in stores and reading lots of reviews at various sites like Amazon, CNet etc. I bought this TV and got it 10 days ago.

A lot has been covered in the reviews here, so i will try to focus on some other points.

Summary: Buy it now and from Amazon and save money.

Pros:
- Excellent picture quality...really superb. Beats LG & Sony for sure. There are several different modes for viewing.
- Great sound. There are modes like movie, normal, music etc which are really very impressive. I decided to buy a home theater system later, since the TV itself has made a good impact on my pocket.
- Amazon delivery. Very good and timely. Came on specified date and time by CEVA. Guy opened it up connected the cable and scanned the channels and let me check for working condition.
- Not very heavy, so easy to mount yourself.
- Tilt wheel remote..a bit tricky initially, but you will love it once you get used to it.
- Contrast is excellent due toits highest contrast ratio in all the TVs in market. Check my pictures for detail.
- Warranty : Samsung provides 1 year in-home care warranty for this TV. If you register it online, you get 3 months of extended warranty free.
You can buy 3 years extended warranty either through Amazon (in first 60 days of purchase) or directly from Samsung (in fist 11 months of purchase). There is a significant price difference.
- USB port is good and it is so easy to view pictures or movie files.
I connected my iPod (after enabling disc usage in iTunes) and it works
perfect with the TV.

I am using a Monster Power Center to feed the power to TV, DVD & cable box and also for the cable signal to my cable box. It is said that it improves the picture quality esp in HD.

I have mounted this TV on Bell'O FP-4850HG High Gloss Black Flat Panel Mounting System. (Read my review on the mounting system too)

So far, I have not been able to take it online either with wireless or Ethernet (LAN) connection. The Wireless Key from Samsung is on nation-wide back order and TV couldn't detect my LAN settings. Need to figure this one out yet.

Some people have reported issues with RED Touch of Color and reflection. I don't see these as an issue. My TV is facing a big window and I put blinds down, if reflection gives a viewing problem. However, its not that huge. You can strategically place your TV to avoid that. And I have not observed any reflection issues from floor lamps or ceiling lights.



2 out of 5 stars Touch of Color bezel ruins otherwise good TV   August 16, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

The Touch of Color bezel is made of such cheap, soft plastic that it is impossible to dust or clean (or even touch) without causing fine scratches, which eventually form white hazy patches all over the frame. No matter how carefully you try to protect the plastic or how gently you try to dust or clean it, it scratches. What's worse, the fine scratches pick up and reflect any lights in the room, causing harsh glaring patches of reflection around the TV.

I called Samsung customer support twice about the problem and all they said was "we don't warrant physical damage."

It's a shame Samsung used such cheap, soft plastic for the bezel because this is otherwise a very good TV. But you can't stand to watch the picture because your view is constantly distracted by the ugly glaring patches reflecting back from the bezel.

My advice it to spend your money on a TV with a traditional metal or solid black bezel.
