Samsung LE40B550-40in Crystal LCD TV

In the past, we often find it difficult to persuade Samsung to send its low-end tellies more for consideration. He was tempted to see what his thoughts cheaper Samsung TV, a few poor quality and do not want to be pummeled in journals results led to a decline in sales. However, now that our perseverance has finally led us to hand over one of Samsung current “mass market models, the LE40B550, we are suddenly re-evaluate our previous thoughts on the Samsung budget” shyness. “

You see, the 40B550 is pretty good. So, unless Samsung has suddenly made a quantum leap in the quality of its products to entry level, we begin to think that the previous mark apparent wish to send us only premium spec-TV in May for review have been a paranoid obsession to be associated with the tip of features and performance, rather than a desire to avoid negative comments.All conjecture, which is very interesting (of course!) But you’re probably more than ready for me to get the company to explain why television has given rise to both Eliot pontificated today.

Let’s start with his appearance, although far less glamorous than Samsung ultra-slim LED models, are still very attractive for television costs only a few quid over £ 550. Is particularly pleasing to the presence of Samsung is customary glass as “Crystal” upper bezel, the subtle arc along the bottom edge of the TV, and how the upper layer of Crystal is authorized to extend a little more beyond the black bezel to create a low light diffracting part outside.

This is a very good TV, too. Kicking things off in fine, HD-loving style are four HDMIs, to acknowledge the support of a VGA PC input and a USB jack allows you to play JPEG and MP3.Unlike Samsung B650 LCD and LED series of models, 40B550 does not have an Ethernet port for access to media is Samsung 2.0 ‘Internet’ service, or content stored on a DLNA PC. Nor does the USB manipulate video files, such as USB from higher spec models. But, that 40B550 cost £ 555. So what do you think? A built-in cappuccino machine?

Even if I’m on the subject of things 40B550 did not, it is not 100Hz processing found on the Samsung B650 series. Although certainly not to say that the TV is completely devoid of video processing, Samsung for multi-purpose Digital Natural Image engine (DNIe) is within reach, as is a wide range of colors of the system, noise reduction routines and Improvement of the system.

It must be said that all these processing tools are particularly useful; Improvement edges can look forced and against nature, and systems for noise reduction can make photos soft unnecessarily if not used sparingly. But the presence of so many options at least suggest that the 40B550 is a TV with ambitions above his station £ 550. [via trustedreviews]
