Be Connected - Electronics

I sometimes envy my grandparents for the simple life they lead. They just had to visit a neighborhood shop, decide on a simple Black & White TV and become proud owners of a brand new television! Many years later, having a plasma TV was the height of sophistication in any modern homes. Now even the concept of flat panel LCD TV is fast becoming passé – in its place is the new-age LED TV. Unless you are an informed buyer or, like me, stick to a reliable brand, you may find the many TV selections a challenging task. I am a die-hard fan of Samsung TVs for as long as I remember Samsung has never disappointed me. In fact, I have recently upgraded from a Samsung LCD TV Series 5 to a Samsung LED TV. It is currently occupying center-stage in my living room. The new Samsung UN55B8000 55-Inch LED TV is the sleekest looking TV I have ever set my eyes on and I am extremely proud of it!

The 55-Inch UN55B800 Samsung TV (which I own) is a picture of true elegance and outstanding performance. Its 55-inch sleek, eco-friendly look, amazing picture quality along with advanced connectivity options keep you hooked, 24×7, in home or office.

The UN55B800 Samsung TV uses superior LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology instead of CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) used by other LCDs. This ensures that you enjoy uniformed distribution of light source throughout the panel and also have quality viewing even in a brightly-lit room. The LED technology has another great advantage – you don’t miss any subtle nuisance of color – from darker blacks to pristine whites because of its astonishingly high 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio.  Moreover, the UN55B800 Samsung LED television comes with advanced color processing which helps in wider and vivid color production. With the new LED TV, you can even access internet websites with TV widgets, such as yahoo, You tube, Flickr, etc, using a wireless Ethernet connection. Unlike standard LCD HDTVs, the 55-inch UN55B800 Samsung LED TV presents a judicious mix of Auto Motion Plus 240 Hz technology and 4 ms response rate to make fast-action movies, sports and such other programs more appealing to viewers. The Samsung LED TV is also easy on the wallet; it saves approximately 40% less power than ordinary LCD TVs.

The other Samsung LED TV which impressed me a lot is from the Series 7 LED models. This is the Samsung UN46B7000 46-Inch LED HDTV. The ultra-sleek and modern look of the Samsung LED TV can be a great addition to any medium-sized living room apartment.  Its 300,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio makes way for amazing color and sharpest details, which together with its advanced color processing guarantees wide range of true-to-life color rendering. For controlling motion blur and image flickering, the UN46B7000 Samsung LED TV comes with a judicious mixture of super-fast 4 ms response time and Auto Motion Plus 120 Hz technology. The Samsung UN46B7000 is truly eco-friendly as it is mercury free and its energy consumption is 40% less than average LCD TVs.  To ensure seamless connectivity, your LCD television comes with a single HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cord.
