Enjoy a more realistic, thrilling movie night at home with this SAMSUNG plasma HDTV.
FEATURES:
Touch of Color™: Make a statement with SAMSUNG's new Touch of Color™ design. It features a hint of clear-to-charcoal gray naturally blended into the traditional piano black frame. Transforming our already stylish TVs into a work of art, it truly is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.
1080p high definition: Enjoy brilliant, film-like images in full high definition resolution. Full high-definition images are sharp, detailed and crystal clear. Superior clarity and resolution deliver top of the line picture quality that takes your home entertainment to another level.
600Hz Subfields: Ever notice how with plasma screens, motions can get a little jerky? Unless you happen to be looking at one of Samsung's new plasma TVs. Every frame is seamlessly smooth because we put 10 full subfields into each frame. That's 600Hz. So contours are crisper, scrolling text sharper and the juddering issue is finally put to rest.
Wide Color Enhancer 2: Capturing nature is the goal of an artist. We've achieved it as well with our Wide Color Enhancer. Our unique 3D color stretching technology saturates each pixel until it achieves the true color and luminescence intended by nature. So every color on the RGB spectrum is brought to life. It is a work of art.
built-in digital tuner (ATSC/Clear QAM): The SAMSUNG plasma TVs have all the tuners you need for any type of cable service, including high definition.
ENERGY STAR compliant: By being ENERGY STAR compliant you are assured that your SAMSUNG model is helping the environment by using less energy while saving you money. ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy promoting energy efficiency.
New Black Panel: When it comes to our new plasmas, we're working very hard to keep you in the dark. That's why we developed new Black Panel technology. It analyzes each scene then brings the blacks down to absolute black. So light doesn't escape and the contrast ratio is preserved. Along with the scary parts of the movie you're watching.
Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio: Getting a true cinematic experience used to mean going to the cinema. But with Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio true cinematic clarity comes to plasmas. Every frame is saturated with dense, rich color. Blacks have more depth and the whites are unbelievably pristine. The only thing missing is a large head blocking your view.
18 bit processing capacity: Maybe it's unfair to compare the picture on our screen to other HDTVs. After all, when you have 18-bit processing capacity you can deliver hundreds of billions of colors. Which is what it takes to deliver a deeper, richer, more realistic picture that's beyond compare.
HDMI: All it takes is one cable to connect your TV to your other audio and video sources. Our HDMI slot allows you to import all kinds of content without compression including pictures and videos from your digital camcorders and multimedia PCcs. Now enjoying it all on a wide HD screen couldn't be easier
