Samsung has made their 2009 TV line official, by announcing the pricing and shipping dates of all TVs for the year. The company has dropped its rear-projection TVs altogether, but it holds on to several new plasmas, despite the LCD dwarfing them in sales.
In the plasma category are the Series 8 and Series 6 lines. These TVs are energy efficient and have received EnergyStar’s seal of approval. They also offer deeper black than before, and a redesigned cabinet. The LCD lineup is more robust, with a clear divider line between those sets that use CCFL backlighting and those that look to the future with LEDs. The Series 7 and Series 7 lines include CCFL-based technologies, while the 6000, 7000 and 8000 Series house the LED technology. |
