UN40C7000 The Great LED HDTV From Samsung
Samsung has endowed three LCD lines and one plasma line of its 2010 models with 3D compatibility, and the least expensive of the bunch is the UN40C7000 series of LED-based LCDs. The company says the series, which should be among the first on the market to feature 3D-readiness, can work with optional 3D glasses to create the 3D effect. An emitter to channelize much assemblage to the glasses is included on the TV.
The set is compatible with nonuple 3D standards, including both half- and full-resolution 3D, as fine as the Blu-ray Disc Association's "Blu-ray 3D" normal. But such content is destined to be rare during the nascent launch of the new format, so Samsung also added a 2D-to-3D conversion system. It takes standardized 2D knowledge from the TV or another recording sources and adds a magnitude of depth. The primo 3D see will doubtless be had with actualized 3D thing, but we presume having the option to add another faux dimension to 2D cognition give appealingness to some audience.
Aside from 3D, the UNC7000 series offers edge-lit LED backlighting, much like many of Samsung's 2008 models. The assort's pressure crucial also mentions a new gentle of backlight technology said to union the benefits of anesthetic dimming with the slenderness of edge-lighting. We asked Samsung's reps repeatedly to elaborate but got nothing more than that. When we get more information we'll update this section.
The UNC7000 is also the least-expensive 2010 Samsung LED model with 240Hz processing, so it should exhibit similar motion resolution performance to the company's UNB8000 series from 2009.
Like most other Samsung models in 2010, the Samsung UN40C7000 will also offer the company's interactive feature suite, anchored by Internet @ TV (i.e. Yahoo widgets) and Samsung Apps. The widgets should operate similarly to last year's models' (although hopefully they're less sluggish now), while the Apps are Samsung's new proprietary content portal. As of now, it's not perfectly clear exactly how it will work; Samsung says that the first free apps will launch in the spring, with premium apps following in the summer. We talked to Samsung's reps and though official articulate is comfort unobtainable, unofficially they they admitted that Apps similar Vudu and Netflix would be slaveless.
