Samsung UE 46 B 6000 VPXZG 116.8 cm (46 inch) 16: 9 Full HD black ruby ​​LCD TVs with LED backlight with integrated DVB-T / DVB-C Tuner (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have the TV now me well informed about 1 week and before buying, on this well-read and in specialized stores. The new Luxia series is really an eye-catching and it has an ultra-slim design to or just because. The menu controls are very well resolved and otherwise the unit makes a good impression. The integrated DVB-C tuner detects even the digital programs so that you need only one CI module for its pay-TV and can save the Reciver. The connectivity can be, except for a 2 Scart connection, nothing left to be desired.

But times had looked in more detail:

Clay

Forget it, the tone of the integrated speakers is not to be used and dirty one each viewing pleasure. But, that's all flat panel TVs and so can get better only by resonant space. But at 2,9cm thickness is not much room for it, so you would have on the technological situation sound even described as good Very. But since almost suggests Samsung with the optical port operating a AV Recivers, I do not feel the sound as a rating criterion. Honestly whoever brings such a TV that has an AV Reciver also very likely.

Design

The TV comes very nobly, with the glass base and the rounded corners that he is forming in transparent acrylic glass already an eye-catcher. He is, however, only if it is free or is mounted with, totally overpriced, wall mount. In a wardrobe or a TV rack he quickly loses its chic and also the ~ 3 cm thickness come not as advantage. That's probably the reason why the 8000 series alternative designs have been developed. Overall, a bit too gloomy for all the home sites, but where is enough light and space, he shines like a diamond.

Image

The picture ... yes there are the ghosts. First the positive, Blurays are really chic in 24p and 100Hz make football matches without streaks / bucking possible. The contrast is really impressive, considering but that here much less than LED's are present in an LCD TV. The colorful awareness, I can confirm, although by default leads to slightly overdriven colors readjust here is hip or he is in the picture just too flashy (values ​​available at CNET.COM or in relevant forums HIFI).
However, the black level is top, black is really black and not brown or gray. The formation of small blocks with SD material has been largely improved.

But now to the darker side of the Luxia series and of course the 46B6000.
First one notices that the pannel is not dull as in conventional LCD TV`s but shiny. This of course is super for the color B / W display and sharpness but not so great for the living room. If one it at the right angle to the window you can without looking from the film avert meanwhile look for dark scenes, outdoors. Also lamps or candles interfere, especially in dark scenes, as reflections in the image. It just sucks for a film to darken the room and make out all the lights, now I know why the remote is fully lit, so you can use it as a flashlight for going to the toilet.
And here we come straight to the next problem, the flashlights. The Luxia series has, the higher the backlight, problems with clouding, these are areas in the display, are illuminated more brightly in dark images than the rest. Particularly in the corners, there is therefore this flashlight effect and through readjustment can reduce other tricks only way you do not get it. And yes, the clouding in the corners thanks to Edge LED, each Luxia the less the others. These are all problems that can be solved only by other Pannel technique (AMOLED). Also, the viewing angle is not the best, certainly loses much of the Farbenfroheit and the dark black when you look at the TV side.

Technology

The technique of the TV is truly breathtaking. Whether such small things like the fully illuminated remote control or the Great, as the built-in Media Player. Also the CI slot, USB port (especially for firmware updates), ANYNET, DVB-T tuner or the 4 HDMI ports are a nice gift from Samsung. Let's go to the Media Player a which, although limited in the B6000-series something, namely images and music, but can be extended to the Movie mode with a few tricks. It's practically can enjoy his vacation photos, favorite songs, or even HD videos (MKV) if one puts his USB flash drive to your TV and to turn it on without another device.
But here again there is a dark side, the Luxia is the first TV I own which may crash and yet I had some. Even with the format to one or other representation is very distorted or the sound is missing times. Especially when using the movie mode in Media Player this becomes noticeable. But I hope that the improved following firmware updates.

What I want to mention separately is the low electricity consumption. Has not my predecessor at 6 inches smaller display uses about 90 watts more power. I think you should emphasize this yet, because the purchase price does not remain in a TV of this size the only cost factor.

CONCLUSION

The TV has a very, very nice picture if you can overlook the Clouding. The technology is on a high level and is not only playing, but also has a real benefit. The appearance is the price range could reasonably but be a bit better thought through. About the quality you do not have much say Samsung typically it is simply high and even higher. Who does not get the clouding effect in the handle, I advise to Samsung Support. The send a technician over the one perhaps even the Movie mode unlocks).

From me a strong buy recommendation if only 4 out of 5 stars. You just have to keep in mind that is still the Edge LED technology in its infancy, and certainly does not represent the end of the ultra-thin flat-panel televisions. Anyone looking for a final solution should access at the OLED 2010 rather.

If questions then ask.
