Samsung UN40B6000

Produces relatively deep black levels; accurate color; very good dejudder processing; sleek styling with 1.2-inch thick panel; extensive picture controls; extremely energy-efficient.

Expensive; less-uniform screen than other LCDs; poor off-angle viewing; backlight fluctuates with program brightness; dark areas tinged bluer; shiny screen can cause reflections in bright rooms; red frame isn't for everyone.

Although it delivers fine picture quality, except for a few flaws, the ultrathin Samsung UNB6000 series will appeal mainly to style seekers who don't mind spending more money.

Samsung UN40B6000VFXZA Review – 40-inch LED HDTV

If buying the latest slim HDTV is what you want along with superb features, then this HDTV is your best bet. Available with a built-in tuner and being just 1.2” in depth makes it an instant choice. The contrast is as usual an unbeatable 3,000,000:1...

Samsung UN40B6000 Review – 40-inch LED HDTV

Samsung UN40B6000 is a 40-inch LED HDTV from Samsung's LED TV series 6. Although a review discusses much about its features, it is the performance of the HDTV that has made it lead the market. More than its sharp pictures and brighter colors, the...

Samsung Series 6 UN40B6000

Samsung launched its Series 6 TVs last year and the company has now updated the lineup by introducing models based on LED backlights. We were big fans of the original and thus had high expectations from our UN40B6000 test sample

Although the initial outlay will be higher than a standard LCD TV, the power savings you’ll enjoy and display improvement balance the equation nicely.

"This is a FANTASTIC TV."

I got this set for $1,199.00 on Sale at Sears. if you can get it for under $1500 you had better jump on it quick.

Picture Quality is Amazing , Ilove watching Blu-Rays on this Set, half the time I just look at thepicture and say wow. Super crisp, great vibrant color.

Black detail could be better, Sound is not great.
