Samsung UN65C6500 Review: 65” LED LCD HDTV

Up for Review: Samsung UN65C6500 LED LCD TV. Even though it lacks the much-hyped 3D feature of this year, Samsung has made sure that all the other main features included this year in the higher end models are present in this set. With your home theater all set up, all you need is a bowl of popcorn to give you the theater effect. Although the TV is extremely thin, it includes all the features that you would be interested in. But maybe the first thing which will draw you to the set is the stone black Touch of Color look. It certainly provides a different impression from the regular looks.

Samsung Apps and Internet widgets will perhaps be responsible for bringing the maximum consumers for this TV. People will surely be happy to get the weather, news and sports updates through these on screen interactive programs. It will almost override the utility of the computer as far as Internet surfing is concerned. The major content providers you can access are Vudu, YouTube, Flickr, Blockbuster, USA Today, Rovi, the Travel Channel, etc. And when you watch all this in 1080p full HD, you are bound to be enthralled by the experience. The manufacturer opts to integrate this TV with 120 Hz which is good enough to watch action scenes without any blurring. The edge-lit LED backlighting makes sure that you get the best in color and picture while keeping the panel very thin.

With the emphasis being on developing energy efficient devices which are eco-friendly too, Samsung has made sure that it is leaps and jumps ahead of the standard requirements. The manufacturers have made sure that the TV conforms to the Energy Star 4.0 and is in fact, 50% ahead of the requirements. This is partly because of the optimized LED panels and also due to the light sensor in the TV. This sensor can find out the ambiance of the room and whether the lighting is low or high. Accordingly, it adjusts the brightness of the panel so that energy is conserved and also provides a soothing effect to the eyes. With so many high-end features, this model is a good bet for your money.
