Samsung's 46 and 55-inch B9000 HDTVs boasts widgets, wireless external media box

by Ross Miller Apr 21st 2009 @ 7:36PM

With no picture to show for it, unfortunately (that's the 8 series, pictured), Samsung's gone ahead and announced the 46-inch and 55-inch B9000 HDTVs, which looks to be a follow-up to the A950 models from last year. According to flatpanelshd, the latest addition to the Touch of Color series include LED backlights with localized dimming, Medi@2.0 with YouTube / Yahoo! widgets, built-in USB port, DLNA functionality, built-in DVB-T and DVB-C tuners, and most interesting, a wireless connection to an external media box that's reportedly similar to Sony's ZX1 -- no word on whether or not that means it's using WHDI. As for the other details, including pricing and availability, you're gonna have to keep waiting, we're afraid.

Samsung's LED-backlit LN46A950 LCD HDTV gets reviewed

by Darren Murph Sep 15th 2008 @ 4:29PM


Samsung's duo of LED-backlit 9 Series LCDs looked mighty delicious on paper, and based on a recent review from CNET, it's just as succulent in real life. The 46-inch HDTV produced the deepest black levels of any LCD reviewers had ever seen, extremely accurate color and an overall feeling of excitement while watching. Further praise was bestowed upon the solid video processing, wide range of picture controls, nice port selection and the attractive design. The biggest knock on this fellow was the staggeringly high price tag ($3,199.99), but if money ain't a thang, you've probably just stumbled upon a winner.

Samsung gets official with LED-backlit 9 Series LCD HDTVs

by Darren Murph Jul 23rd 2008 @ 9:38AM


Can't say we're surprised to see 'em, but Sammy has done its due diligence by pumping out the official verbiage for the 9 Series LCD HDTVs that were leaked late last week. These second-generation LED-backlit sets feature 1080p Ultra Clear panels, Auto Motion Plus 120Hz technology, 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratios, the familiar Touch of Color design and a smattering of networking technologies like InfoLink (RSS access) and WiseLink Pro. Additionally, both the 46-inch LN46A950 (pictured) and 55-inch LN55A950 feature 4-millisecond response times, down-firing speakers with a built-in subbie, an integrated NTSC / ATSC / ClearQAM tuner, four HDMI-CEC ports, a PC input, Ethernet socket and a pair of component jacks. Look for each to land next month for $3,199.99 and $4,199.99, respectively.

Samsung's IFA lineup of HDTVs emerges

by Darren Murph Jul 18th 2008 @ 11:22AM


Mmm, IFA. The Berlin-based trade show is drawing near, and Samsung isn't waiting around to tease us with what will be unveiled there. The company is already showcasing a number of swank flat-panels including the 7 Series (46-inch LE-46A780 and 40-inch LE-40A780), 9 Series (46-inch LE-46A950) and 7 Series plasma (50-inch PS-50A750). We're also noticing a number of HTIB systems along with a few other components we're sure to take interest in, but the whole German language thing is a bit of a barrier right now. Nevertheless, tap the (roughly) translated links below for specifications on the aforesaid HDTVs, and look for more details (read: information in English) to emerge as the expo approaches.
