Description: 1080p LED Backlit LCD Television (super thin)
Reviewer: Robert Wiley
Date: Fall 2010
STRENGTHS
- Aesthetics – Contemporary Design 1.1" depth with 1" frame. Great looking TV.
- New and exciting Swivel quadrapod stand
- Good deep black levels – Avg. to good contrast.
- Excellent color saturation and light levels
- Optional 120Hz feature for sports programming
- Great connectivity options for such a thin TV
- Strong Internet Options
- Good Value
WEAKNESSES
- Proprietary Wifi Internet TV Network
- 120Hz feature with Film based content (turn off feature). 120Hz is really about as good as 240Hz. The difference is negligible.
- Difficult ISF calibration
- Side Angle Viewing contrast reduction
- At times over saturation of colors
- Slightly Weak Volume/Audio output
- Blue tone inconsistency across gray scales
- Some complain of uneven light/color uniformity from LED back lighting
Price Considerations: At $2199 at local retailers, this the 55C6500 is nearly half the price of the 65C6500. It's still not inexpensive but this is a good price point in the 55" LED category. This TV has the newest LED backlighting, a super thin depth, sleek good looks, but does not contain 3D capability. It does however, contain Samsung's ever improving cast of Internet Apps options.
