The latest series of Samsung LED TVs is due to hit shops soon, and if you’re in the market for the all important picture quality, this new range will be difficult to walk past.
Samsung have attempted to push the boundaries of TV technology with the LED 7000 and 7020 Series. So what’s so good about an LED TV versus a normal set? Well, a number of things from the look of it.
To get the picture quality as high as possible, Samsung have replaced ordinary fluorescent backlights with multiple LEDs that can become brighter, dimmer or switch off completely depending on the screen picture. This allows for more authentic blacks and greater brightness whenever needed.
But it’s not just about iridescent colours, good picture quality also depends very much on an increased hertz rate that will show more pictures in the space of a second for really vivid action scenes.
The new 7 series have doubled the usual 50Hz per second frame rate to 100Hz in an attempt to keep any blurriness out of the latest Transporter movie. While I haven’t had a look at the new series up close and personally, I have seen this effect on other TVs, and an increased Hz rate goes a long way in creating true-to-life pictures that are noticably better than usual.
To continue with the benefits of LED TVs, they are also about 70 per cent slimmer than the equivalent fluorescent backlit TVs. The new 7 series televisions weigh-in at under 30mm thick, and turns your TV into a sleek piece of furniture.
To add to the overall style of this new range of TVs the remote control has also come under the design microscope to create a pebble shaped control, and certainly looks much more stylish than the old brick-like contraption that we’re all used to seeing on the coffee table.
The 7 series will also help you to increase your green credentials by feeding your Emmerdale addiction. The frame of the TVs are made from recyclable bezel and they also use mercury-free LED lights that use up less energy, and therefore emits less CO2.
What is quite cool about the 7 series is that it features Samsung Medi@2.0, which basically turns your TV into more of a media player. If you’d rather watch a TV show from a website instead of being confined to the TV schedule, you can make use of a widget that lets you watch, add or delete content. 
Medi@2.0 allows you to access content from different sources such as Internet TV, Wireless DLNA, USB 2.0 Movie and the Content Flash Library.
What exactly is the Content Flash Library though? Well it provides the humble TV set with another function as you can play games on it such as chess or create your own content, from kid’s games to fitness routine games on it.
All up, Samsung have really made an effort to create a new generation of LED TVs with increased quality but also increased green credentials, and really the future of technology has to address these two areas. Kudos to Samsung for this series.

It is great feature tv It make the picture quality as high as possible,Samsung have attempted to push the boundaries of TV technology with the LED 7000 and 7020 Series.
I recently saw one of these Samsung led tv’s in currys and the picture quality and spec certainly is amazing, you now even get twitter widget with them! I cant wait to see the 8000 series with its 200Hz refresh rates!
Interesting article, the remote looks pretty cool. The widgets are a great idea – remember hearing about them from Yahoo a few years ago now. Good to see they’ve been integrated into a mainstream consumer range of TVs – I look forward to attempting to Twitter through my TV! Not sure how easy it’ll be trying to input text using the remote control though…
Interesting tactic by Samsung’s PR to deem their new TV range as “LED TVs†despite not strictly being full LED sets. Seems to have generated the hype they needed surrounding their new products though, which undoubtedly turned into lots of sales. It’s like any other buzzword – 1080p, 24Hz, HD – companies seem to invent them to produce instant sales.
I do think LED is here to stay though, or at least in the form of OLED televisions. That’s until laser TVs come along – however the only manufacturer interested in that technology at the moment appears to be Mitsubishi.
Are they any good?
If it’s replaceing the flourescent lighting with LED’s, the really this is not an LED TV but and LCD TV with LED backlight. Somebody correct me if I am wrong.
