 Good to Excellent, Significantly better than CCFL? |
| Review Date: September 16, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Gregory L. Dauria, Connecticut USA |
I originally ordered the Samsung LN40B650 and was fairly certain that I had made a good choice. I don't know why but I starting second guessing my decision, which led me to review the Samsung LED LCD televisions. While the reviews were not extremely glowing, the Samsung UN40B6000 looked like it could better the picture of the CCFL LN40B650 and I canceled the order for CCFL and went with the 6000 series LED television. One of the "cons" of the edge-placed LED televisions is a noted lack of screen uniformity but that is for larger screen sizes and I thought the 40 inch screen would not be as prone to that problem.
Some thoughts and observations:
1. The clear screen is very good - I have 3 windows, and a bright ceiling light; there are no reflection problems. In some of my earlier posted Amazon photos, a window reflection was evident on the screen, but not really noticeable in real-life viewing. I found, however, if I looked for the reflection, I could see it. I reshot the photos in lower light to better illustrate the performance of the UN40b6000. The first photo shows how good the screen image is when viewed directly on; this quality remains solid to 15 - 20 degrees of center. The image does lighten but I disagree that it rapidly deteriorates to poor quality even up to a viewing angle of 45 degrees; it's still a good image.
2. Out of the box the picture is good, but after using the settings recommended by CNET, with some slight personal adjustments, the picture for many Blu Ray pictures are as good as I've seen.
3. Despite the stated mega contrast ratio of 3,000,000:1, the gamma setting needed to be adjusted to at least +2 or +3 (highest) values to keep dark scenes properly contrasted. One interesting fact regarding the off-center viewing is that contrast for dark lit scenes actually improves.
4. The sound is NOT bad; the two UN40B6000 rear/downward firing speakers in custom mode produces respectable sound for a television set. Now, if you want theater-quality surround sound, then this TV is going to fall far short of such expectation, but what set would not? My suggestion is to go into sound mode; select custom, select graphic equalizer (set 100HZ to max; 300HZ to 3/4 range); set SRS Trusurround HD to "On" and give a listen. If you're still not happy, buy a sound bar.
5. The backlit remote is nice for nighttime viewing and is fairly user friendly.
6. The Samsung Blu Ray and UN40B6000 automatically recognize one another which may play a role in the exceptional picture that is produced.
The bottom line is that UN40B6000 produces a very good to excellent picture, and the sound is decent for a television set - is it worth the couple of hundred dollars more than its CCFL counterpart? I cannot say with certainty, but my hunch is that it is. However, where its performance may exceed say the LN40B650 is most likely limited to direct viewing +/- 20 degrees off center. After that the CCFL set may hold an advantage.
Update 9/25: I have read the reviews regarding limited viewing angles, but I have not noticed the dramatic degradation that has been observed by others. For comparison, I have placed 3 images under typical dark viewing conditions (note all camera settings are in static manual mode, no photo editing performed). The series of photos uploaded on Amazon do not come close to the actual picture on the screen in terms of quality, but they do demonstrate relative difference in picture color and contrast as the viewing angle is moved from center - please note photo placement captions. Overall, I am VERY happy with the UN40B6000 performance and have every intention of keeping it. The picture is outstanding when viewed directly, and may diminish with increased viewing angle, but it's more of an excellent to good, than a good to terrible. My wife keeps complaining that the picture is too good - that it's like watching a movie being made instead of viewing a movie - it does not make sense to me either.
UPDATE 1/22/10: In the comment section I was asked the set's height with stand. When I performed the required action by using a metal measuring tape positioned on the right side of the TV, the set went into store demo mode that displayed features of the TV - I needed Samsung technical support to get me out of the stored program. On the plus side - at 23:00, Friday night, I had a technician within minutes. Samsung did not understand why it happened but it did, and they directed me out of the program. FYI, I measured over the front buttons on the right side of the TV and I now believe the metal tape simultaneously contacted two buttons which initiated the store demo program - do not take a measurement in that fashion! If for some reason the store display comes on, from menu, go to "plug and play" and advance to section that has choices "store demo" or "home use" select "home use" to exit the program. |

We just upgraded from a 10yr old huge tube tv to this. Granted that anything would be awsome in comparison, the picture is fabulous, its very light, thin, and energy efficient. It is weird not having any buttons on the tv itself, but I can kind of see why. Since it is so thin, the wire placement in the back is a bit strange, or different I should say from the monster tube tv we had. We had to get a HMDI cable to go with it to connect our DVD player, but other then that, no other item was needed. If you are going to mount it on the wall, you will need to purchase that separately. Luckily the DVD player we had was new enough to be an upconvert to Hi-def.
The picture looks like you are standing next to the film crew as they are filming the show. It's very strange. Even Kungfu Panda looked more 3 dimensional if that is possible. |

*UPDATED*
Well I purchased this two weeks ago from Best Buy and I have enjoyed it since then. I have now a better understanding to write a better review.
I like it's ultra slim design and its light weight. I didn't needed more help than little help from my wife to carry the whole package to the second floor. I did it alone to carry off of my minivan and I'm not a wrestler. I did assembled the stand in a few minutes very easily.
This is my first HDTV. I have been following HDTV technology for years but was until now that I was able to purchase it. I have watched a lot of TV's since 5 years ago in every store display with every combination of inputs and I think I can notice when a movie is Blue Ray connected through HDMI or composite video to when a TV set is connected trough other Video inputs and video sources (DVD).
I have my set connected to a Samsung BDP3600 Blue Ray, however I have not purchased any Blue Ray movie yet so I tested with a couple of DVDs and the image is excellent. I can't tell if is the TV or the BDP3600, but I see it like a Blue Ray movie. I can't wait to play a blue ray movie on my set. DVD's look gorgeous. *UPDATE: Computer Animated DVD's look gorgeous. I tried Harry Potter DVD and it is not the same video quality as Shrek II. Blue Ray movies seems very nice as expected, darker scenes seems grainy, I believe that is the ISO sensitivity of the film not an issue of the Blue Ray. If that is true new movies are going to be shotted with HDTV or higher area film, if I'm not wrong, most movies are 35mm film.
HDTV over the air (1080i) looks very nice and is pretty quick to change from HDTV channel to HDTV channel. I have satellite broadcast, however it does not offer HDTV signals :(.
*UPDATE. I have plug ed my USB thumb drive with a racing .mkv file and I was amazed of the quality of video I saw in this highly compressed file (3hrs in a 1.1GB file). All the scenes look very nice with vivid colors and very detailed even the fast moving scenes from on board cameras.
*UPDATE. I would have expected to read my Ethernet disk drive to play this videos, but is not able to connect a network shared drive. The blue ray player is able to do it, however is not able to play .mkv files. So I need to copy them to my thumb drive and play them directly on the TV.
*UPDATE. Infolink is good, but you are not able to select cities from other countries for weather update.
Unless other reviewers say not, mine has buttons, they are touch sensors discrete icons in front of the TV i.e. power button is beneath the SAMSUNG logo.
PROS:
- Excellent Picture
- Slim Design
- Light Weight
- Stylish Design
- Discrete Buttons (some owners might have not notice them)
*UPDATE - Ability to play a lot of audio and video formats including .mkv, video files.
CONS:
The only thing that I have discovered is that Picture in Picture can only be done with an HDMI input and Air. I have not been able to have PIP with Air and the analog A/V input from my satellite nor the satellite with the HDMI input. I have not installed the Ethernet and might a firmware upgrade solve this.
*** UPDATE ***
I did connect the set to my Ethernet, firmware upgrade was done and it didn't solve the PIP issue. There is also no way to swap the images of PIP. Not too much of a concern for me.
I'm pretty happy with my purchase. |
Excellent Quality

I am the type of person who likes to buy good quality and keep it for a long time. But my many years old Sony was turning everyone and everything blue. Definitely a great TV for a Smurf or Blueman fanatic but not the best for general viewing. So out to look for a new TV.
I am not an electronics buff so exact specs etc. is not something I really wanted to study. Instead I opted to look for the TV that had the best visual picture.
And the Samsung TV has an outstanding picture. The color is vivid and rich and the depth perception is amazing. At some points you feel the characters are in the room with you. In addition the TV looks great from a straight on or side view. The quality of the anti blur makes watching fast paced sports very enjoyable.
Many of the TV's we looked at boasted a high quality picture, but we saw a huge difference when we stepped back from the screen. The color on this one just stood out.
In addition the TV offers a sleek design. It has a lustrous black finish that sets off the wide screen beautifully. The screen has just the right amount of reflectivity so you can easily view the picture without glare. At 40 inches this flat screen is large enough to give a movie type feel but not so large as to overwhelm an average size family room. Another big plus is the TV is more eco friendly then others.
After viewing the TV's in the store I was lucky to find it on Amazon where it was for a window of time around $1200 with free shipping and no tax. $300 less than if I had purchased it in the store. Since I know I will have this for many years it is an excellent value.
Set up was easy, it looks great in the room and we are really enjoying our new Samsung.

| I did a lot of research on all the reviews before purchansing this tv. I have had no problems at all that some others had mentioned. Picture is incredible. The glare from various windows in the room is very minimal (you have to actually look for them to even notice it). Sound is actually much better than I had expected from some of the other reviews. At the time I ordered this tv, I went to other local stores to see if they could beat amazon's price. They actually told me I should order the tv from amazon at that price. They couldn't come close. I had found a steal! Zero complaints with this LED. |

| Reviewer: Steve, |
I own 3 Samsung TV's and this is the only LED / LCD of the bunch. So, the question is, "Is it better than the other CCFL TV's?. Well, the answer is, "Yes, in almost every aspect." I also want to state that I like all of the TV's I have and they are all different. Keep in mind that there is no perfect TV, not even the top of the line plasma's.
These are the things that I like...
1. The black on this set is what I would consider "inky black". I have seen better, but not by much. With the lights in the room off, I can see that the black bars on wide screen pictures are not totally black, but almost. I'm not much of a fan of watching a TV in total darkness. In fact, I have a light mounted behind my wall mounted 52 inch that I use on a regular basis. Having some light in the room has two advantages. First, it makes the blacks seem a little darker and second, it reduces eye strain.
2. The contrast is better then my other two TV's by a wide margin. It makes the TV very 3D looking. There is a little crushing of black levels in some scenes, but that can be adjusted at the expense of the deepest blacks and contrast.
3. The color is phenomenal compared to the 52 inch which is about 3 years old. It is very vibrant and at the same time, more natural. Samsung claims that the color spectrum has been increased to about 97% of the available spectrum and I believe them. I can see many more color variations than I can on my big set.
4. The sound is very good for a TV. I didn't expect it to be that good. It is better than both of my other two TV's. I have a external surround system on my 52 inch because I can't stand the sound of it. This TV is much better.
5. Power usage is very low on this set. I have a Watts up? meter connected to the TV and the power varies between 60 watts to 97 watts. On average, it runs between 90 to 97 watts. Of course, you can increase the back light which will increase the power usage to about 135 watts, but that is not necessary, even in a very brightly lit room.
6. The bottom line is that this TV has the best picture I have seen in my home. Sometimes I say to myself, "WOW!". It's that good.
These are the things I don't like...
1. Like other posters have mentioned, some shows seem like you are watching a stage play or a soap instead of a finished movie. If you've ever watched a movie in the making, you will understand what I am saying. It's not always that way though. Blue Ray seems much better in this regard. It also seems to be somewhat related to the amount of 3D image presented. I think what we're seeing is a closer representation to to the recording process and we're not used to it. Oh well, it's not a deal breaker and it only happens on some shows.
2. As for off angle viewing, there is a difference. There seems to be a slight lose of contrast when viewing off angle. I has the effect of lessing the effect of black crushing so in a way, It could e considered a benefit. It is a very minor issue.
The bottom line is that the picture is exceptional.
Also...
From what I've seen in the stores, most plasma's looked washed out in comparison to LCD's, except for perhaps the top of the line Pioneer plasma's. Plasma's also have very serious problems with burn in, even though they deny it. You have to be very careful with plasma, even to the extent of not watching too many shows in a row that have black bars.Keep in mind that even LCD's can have stuck pixels if you leave a static picture on it too long. At least, that's what the instructions say. My LCD computer monitors don't seem to have any problem with it, so I'm not sure this is really a problem. In the end, LED/LCD is a great compromise between the best plasma's and LCD. I think one of the best things is that I can watch this TV for about 4 hours using the same amount of power that my 55 inch with surround system uses in about 1 hour. At my present usage, this TV costs me about $1.40 per month to run and that is running 7 to 8 hours a day.
One more thing...
I adjusted the set using CNET settings and I had to change some of the settings because they do their adjustments in a totally dark room. Still, the picture is very good. I also noticed that there was some judder until I set the auto-motion to smooth. All of the judder went away, very smooth motion now. I have one little complaint about the settings that you find online and that is that they always set it for a totally dark room. I don't know many people who watch TV that way. In a lit room, it usually causes the picture to looked washed out. A few adjustments takes care of it.

| Samsung is always on the cutting edge. I'am a samsung kinda guy, so excuse the preferance. This set is amazing in every aspect. Before its turned on it looks great just sitting there, Everyone who sees it compliments the design, the TOC, even though it does nothing for performance .Although I have mine on a entertainment center, you can hang it on the wall,like a painting, 1.2" wide. 4 hdmi ports which is awsome, usb, pc, internet, digital audio, component connections,everything one would need, configuration options in the menu are very generous. One does not buy a flat screen for its speakers,so hook it up to a surround sound system, and enjoy. If you think the picture looks great in the store, when you get it home,adjust the menu option for home use, not store use and you will be amazed at the results, WOW factor on HD, super WOW on Blu-Ray.I was able to purchase this at a special price of $1259.00, a no brainer. |

Only complaint is the speakers aren't the best, but I have a large home theatre system with high end JBL speakers so the TV speakers are a non issue anyway, besides, who doesn't have a home theatre system for a TV this nice? |

| just wanted to commment on my new purchase of the the un40b6000. I have been holding off for several years before taking the high definition plunge. I decided on purchasing the samsung edge lit led tv versus just the lcd version. I have to say for the most part I have been very impressed with the picture. right out of the box the tv was easy to setup and not that confusing on the menu options. Everything was pretty straight forward. HDMI cables are so much easier than having to mess with with all of the component and fiberoptic cables. Just plug and play. The picture quality is great and like many other comments have stated it might be to good. I have noticed especially on blue ray movies that the shows have lost their movie look. The picture is so clear that the movie looks like it is being performed on a stage. It is hard to describe in words seeing is truly believing. The only problems that I have run into with this tv is when I hooked up a samsung blueray player. It seems that there is a default program called samsung anynet+. If you dont disable the program from the blueray player it locks up the blueray player. Easy fix if you know the solution. Anyways if you are on the fence with a tv purchase this is a good product. If you can wait on purchasing like any electronics everything will get better and cheaper. The only advice I can give you is that get ready for some extra expenses. HDMI cables are not cheap. However the cheapest cables work just as good as the most expensive. If you are an existing customer with dishnetwork you can negogitate the service fee for having your hd service turned on. Go aheah and get a blueray player with the tv. Even the standard dvds look awesome on it. good luck and hope this review helps. |

| Reviewer: Mike Powalski, MN |
I looked around for quite some time before taking the plunge on this TV. We have had the TV connected to both a HD DirectTV box and an SD DirectTV box. The picture was obviously better when connected to the HD box but I was quite surprised at how well it did displaying SD(480). When comparing the image to other HD lcd tv's in the house the Samsung was far better at displaying SD tv. The sound isn't the best and I think is sounds better if you turn the SRS off, but I plan on connecting to a surround sound system anyway. One thing to consider is the lack of connections for devices that do not have a HDMI port.
Pros: Incredible HD display and excellent SD picture quality. Very thin along with a narrow bezel allows for placement in spots some 40 inch TV's can't fit. Easy to setup, the menus are intuitive and the remote is easy to use.
Cons: Average sound from the built in speakers but it is OK just not up to par with the display. Lack of connections for devices without HDMI ports. |

After much deliberation, I decided to go with the Samsung (UN40B6000) 40-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV because of the awesome picture and contrast ratio. The TV is a superb device for movies, video games, cable TV, and a computer monitor.
The TV's minor fall backs include a slight decline in quality if viewed from the side and horrible speakers. The glare from the screen isn't an issue because of the sheer light that is projected from the TV; however, there is a slight reflection from the frame of the TV.
Overall this is a great television!

LED Definitely Worth the Extra $$$: This TV is Awesome

| Review Date: February 2, 2010 |
| Reviewer: H. Freeman, Connecticut |
I'm simply blown away by the picture on this set. We got an entry level Panasonic HD (around 23") when HD sets first came out, and it served us well, but we were ready for something a little bigger and more modern. For the longest time, I had my eyes on the Samsung LN40b630. That's a great LCD TV, don't get me wrong, and it was featured for a great price on Amazon. But then I decided to hop into a Best Buy just to see the picture on the 630 up close, and I just found myself staring at this beauty. Okay, yes, LED may be a clever marketing tool, and LED is really a subset of LCD... all I know is the picture on this set is vastly superior to that on the LCD sets that I saw. And for an investment of $200-$300 extra, this was a no-brainer. The ridiculous (and I mean that in a good way) contrast ratio, the Auto Motion Plus 120Hz, the multiple modes you can choose from and customize yourself whether you're in a dark or light environment... you really get what you pay for, in my opinion
The next step up, the 7000 series, has a ton of interactive features, but other than that, it appears to me to be very similar to this model, so why bother? If you want the best picture at the best price, and aren't really concerned with Yahoo widgets and internet connectivity, the UN40B6000 is the way to go.
A crystal clear picture, and being able to watch fast moving without any blurring truly makes watching sports an experience, and something else I've learned is that some channels or networks come across as higher resolution than others. In the first day or two after we acquired this set, we watched a few things here and there on various HD networks. Last night, my wife and I watched "How I Met Your Mother" on our CBS affiliate, and were blown away at how crisp the picture was. As I had heard others described, it's as if you're on the sound stage watching it, rather than viewing it through a video feed. And then there are other HD channels that look amazing, but not quite to that level. But I'm assuming the big events probably look the best... and to that end, I'm looking forward to checking out the Super Bowl (and the LOST premiere) on this bad boy. And I look particularly forward to watching our first Blu-Ray film.
The one thing I find annoying is that I have to purchase a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter to get the Infolink service to work (and not to mention the Netflix streaming capability on the Samsung Blu-Ray player). Be that as it may, that is honestly the only negative that comes to mind. I love this TV. Besides the picture, the 1.3" thickness of the set is something to behold. And 40" was the perfect size for our living room.
So if you're on the fence and have a couple of models in mind, trust me, throw in the extra bucks if you can spare them, and go for this LED-LCD set. But don't take my word for it, go to your local electronics store and look at the televisions for yourself. |

| This is my first HD TV, so my impressions might be skewed, but I just love this TV. I did a lot of research on different TVs, and have always loved Samsung. I was looking at LCD sets until I saw this in person at Best Buy, and when the price here at Amazon dropped to just a couple hundred above my preset limit of $1,000 (at the time of purchase!) I decided it was worth the extra cash. Easy to set up, and picture quality is outstanding. |

| I just go my new Samsung UN40B6000 & absolutely love it. Easy to set up & has a beautiful picture. I love the energy saving aspect as I am an environment friendly gal. The sound is great too. My hearing isn't what is used to be & have been pricing out Bose 3-2-1 system because I don't want to run a bunch of wires around, but was amazed at the sound from the tv at a low volume. The Samsung warranty for additional 104.99 is a bargain too. I didn't buy mine throught Amazon (wish I did), but found it somewhere else for $200 cheaper. Didn't have free shipping though so actually saved $120. The other website (will not name) tried to push me on a 3 yr plan for $299. If you are someone who likes to insure your high end products (like me but I didn't pay $299) buy through Amazon & get the warranty. |

| This television is amazing. I don't care that the sound isn't that great because I have a surround sound system...most people should when investing in a nice television. The picture is difficult to beat. The complaints of the poor picture from side views are completely false. THere are always going to be a few bad apples in a review of a product because people will always find something to complain about, either that or they got a damaged TV. Picture looks as good from the far angles as it does in the center. There are many nice features such as the mp3 input and ethernet capabilities. This TV is a nice purchase! |

Hooo!! I just purchase thie Samsung LED TV today. It is a dream come true for me. I have been looking for over a month for a new TV. I was read and read, Ask and ask the sale person for every knowlage I can before I buy this one. Wow what a good decision. I had a Magnavox 32" 720p that quit working after 3 years. Think it because I start to play Blue ray with HDMI in to it. I set auto out put from the blue ray but I think I force 1080p in to my 720p. Called Magnavox they know exectly what happen (like it happen often) my power board was burn out. So any one that have 720p becareful. I know that Samsung is a very good brand, but I don't know how good it is until i seen this one un40b6000. The price was out of my range, and I was setting down with 60hz Samsung 550 model for around $1,000. I purchase the 6000 for little over $1300. I worth the money. I though my Magnavox was good picture, but not even compare to this samsung. 40" is way big enough for me, and i think it is the right size for any room unless you are in a hall or sport bar or very big room. I love the auto sound setting it help a lot. My wife and I was always got mad at the net work station that crank up the sound of comecial too lound, and we have to keep adjust volume up and down on our old TV. After we seted the auto sound we now are relaxing not jump up and down like before(more peace full feeling if you know what we mean). I notice that on the sit com the sound of back ground laughing is also smooded not jump up to disturb you nerves. WE LOVE IT!!. You can turn it off when you watch the movie to get special sound effects. the finish is beautiful the base ia a real class not plastic, looks very classy. I play Wall-E, Die hard, Across the Universe, Battle of great Brithan.Hoo we never seen any think like these Blue ray. Thank you Samsung for build the best TV for us cosumers. This is truly a Cadilac of TV.
I can't wait to watch Tennis US opon on it.
Pro: Great picture, color, sport pictures is like you are standing beside the player. Blue ray is so sharp it's unreal, great sound from little speakers.
