Looking At Samsung TVs

Samsung TV offers so many options that it is nearly impossible to look at their entire line of TVs and not be impressed. They have come a long way in the last two decades or so to become one of the premiere brands on the market today.

Because Samsung TV is constantly growing, adapting and developing, a brief description of their entire product line could be a pretty arduous task. We like a challenge, so we have put together a sort of guided tour of the wonderful world of Samsung and invite you along for the journey.

Samsung TVs in the plasma department offer a wide variety of options as far as price and quality goes. The “low-end” TVs are the series 4 TVs. These are all under $1,000 and feature 42″-50″ screens and 720p definition pictures. Technically this is the second generation of HDTV picture, but first in the hearts of many. In other words for the price, the picture is outstanding.

The top of the Samsung plasma line would be the series 8. These monsters start with a 50″ screen and keep growing until they reach a whopping 58″. They are all 1080p, which is the clearest picture currently available and come with an astounding 30,000,000:1 Mega Contrast. Basically this is just another way of saying that the picture looks really, REALLY good.

Samsung’s LED HDTVs should not be left out, their series 7 TVs are an outstanding LED value in the $2-3,000 range. This is good quality picture (1080p) for the cost. Picture size ranges from 46-55″ with a ton of extras and add-ons such as internet TV. The biggest deal with these has to be the price for the quality. I know it was mentioned before, but I get a little excited about it.

Samsung TV makes a series 8 as well. The series 8 is the next half generation of LED HDTVs really. These is some more software built in but with a 1080p picture quality and 50,000,000: 1 contrast ratio, there’s really not a whole lot more Samsung can do right now. Or so one would think. For the money the series 8 is a great deal, however, I’m a little sceptical as to whether there’s a significant improvement that justifies a slightly higher price; about $1,000.

The lower end of Samsung TV would be the LCD TVs. Traditionally, these models are lighter and thinner than the others without making your wallet lighter or thinner. They are a good value. The series 3 that Samsung has produced is a solid LCD TV at a solid value price in their series 3. The sizes range from $300 to about $600. These are 720p HDTVs though and while Samsung does a good job with them, they are what they are; a fast inexpensive fix. They are solidly made however and when the series came out, top of the line. The series 6 LCD HDTV that Samsung has put together is by far the best of the LCD TVs they produce. These monsters range in size from 42-65″ and have a 1080p picture with a 100,000:1 contrast ratio; respectable for an LCD to say the least. Overall, for an LCD TV I’d give them a top rating.

Samsung continues to break new ground with every new series of LCD, LED and plasma TV all the while refining their existing technology. By doing this there is no doubt they will continue to meet and exceed their customers’ expectations on a yearly basis.
