Samsung UN55B7100 55” 120Hz LED HDTV Review

Mon 2009-11-02 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan

Hardware Canucks have posted a review of the Samsung UN55B7100, a new ultra-thin 55-inch 120Hz LED HDTV.

Here's what they had to say:

"The Samsung UN55B7100 is one hell of a TV but even after using it for weeks; I have come to the realization that I still haven’t found the holy grail of HDTVs. With a great picture, high efficiency and relatively good contrast, it’s pretty darn close to being one best but there is one thing holding me back from recommending it: the horrible uniformity in dark scenes. That however doesn’t stop it from being a technological marvel and as such, it gets a well-deserved Dam Innovative Award."

This is a very sleek TV, and the 120Hz LED tech has a lot of potential, but regrettably the backlight (or sidelight in this case) bleeding is really bad on this model. Check out the article to see what it looks like.
