Enjoy brighter, more true-to-life pictures and vivid colors that will simply amaze you. SAMSUNG LCD HDTVs give you 92% coverage of the National Television System Committee's standard as compared to the 72% that competitors offer. That translates to brilliant images that really enhance your entertainment experience.
5 ms response time
One of the most important features for an LCD panel is the pixel response time. Response time refers to the amount of time it takes a pixel to "refresh" itself-to go from being active to being inactive, (ready to be re-activated). The lower the milliseconds, the faster the response time. A very fast 5ms response time virtually eliminates any blurring and gives you smooth-motion action scenes.
ENERGY STAR compliant
By being ENERGY STAR compliant you are assured that your SAMSUNG model is helping the environment by using less energy while saving you money. ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy promoting energy efficiency.
