CES 2009: Up Close and Personal with Samsung’s Upcoming Products

Posted on: January 23rd, 2009 | 8 Comments

New from Samsung in 2009 is a line of LED TVs that is sure to set a new standard for quality and energy efficiency. The crown jewels of this line are the LED 8000, LED 7000, and the LED 6000. There are three specific components that make this collection stand out to consumers.

The first factor is picture quality. The picture is crystal clear and contains vibrant colors. The contrast ratio is said to attain “un-reachable mega-contrast ratios.” The second component is the networking capabilities the series is equipped with. Samsung and Yahoo have partnered and produced a widget-based technology called “Internet@TV - Content Service” to bring Web content to TVs. Consumers can access Yahoo, Flickr, eBay, and many more properties.

The third component is the design aspect. Samsung designed the series to be extremely thin (around 1-inch) and very lightweight. Also as part of the design, the TVs include a wall-mount solution that makes mounting a TV as easy as hanging a picture.

Also previewed in this video are the LCD Series, Plasma Series, and the Wall-Mountable Blu-ray Player. Like the LED Series, both the LCD Series and the Plasma Series include 240Hz technology to eliminate motion blur, the Internet capabilities with Yahoo, and conservation of 40 percent more energy than traditional LCD TVs.

To go along with all these TVs, Samsung also announced the world’s first Wall-Mountable Blu-ray Player. The device has 1GB of onboard memory, built-in Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, and 802.11n WiFi. The 1.5-inch model also has a slot-loading disc drive on the side and streams Netflix and Pandora.

Samsung took home 46 CES Innovations Awards for its 2009 offerings. The new Samsung products will be available during the first half of this year and prices have not yet been announced.

    Big fan of the whole Samsung line. They had one of the coolest exhibit areas at the show I thought — those LED TV’s… just amazing. And Larry, appreciate your concern and comments of course, however you are drawing a conclusion or two that are questionable at best. I know I’m not the prettiest thing in the world, but c’mon. Try a few 14 hour days and a little jet lag. If anything, a little bar time would have more than likely helped my conversation.

    Mike:
    C.E.S. can be an exhausting event. In order to look like a serious buyer and fully appreciate the new products being presented I had to stay away from the bars at night. If I had your job, it would be absolutely neccessary to do so and get a good night’s sleep. You did not look well and your conver4sation was a bit disorganized in the presentations.
    Nothing personal. Just an observation.

  8. I love Samsung design savvy. They have made amazing strides.
