Samsung LN-46A650 Flat-panel Television
by Franz Bicar
Samsung has always been acknowledged for merging sophisticated style with top of the line technology. The Samsung LN-46A650 Flat-panel Television LCD HDTV combines the latest in high definition advancements with a beautiful, and unique, red bezel.
With Samsung’s 1080p resolution and Samsung’s DNIe digital engine which delivers a crisp, lifelike picture closer to film, or Auto Motion Plus 120Hz to virtually eliminate motion blur and smooth transitions between frames, everyone will be satisfied.
Its connectivity options include InfoLink RSS, Wiselink USB connection, and three HDMI inputs. All contained in a beautiful package with just a Touch of Color in its bezel.
Samsung’s Digital Natural Image engine (DNIe), is an innovative technology that delivers a crisp, lifelike picture that more closely resembles the look of film regardless of the input signals used. Five image processors and a six-times density enhancer ensure the best picture from any source. Using your standard DVD player,the television will increase the quality of the picture. This technology guarantees the truest colors and highest contrast, while virtually eliminating digital artifacts.
In general, television and film were not created equal. Film is shot at 24 frames per second. And just about every movie disc you can buy is encoded at that speed. But television programming runs at 30 frames per second, and most TVs conform to that standard.
When you watch a DVD on your TV, fitting that 24-frame content onto a 30-frame screen isn’t a seamless process. You can’t divide 24 by 30 evenly so video engineers fill in the gaps by placing one frame on the screen three times and the next one after that two times, which can cause stutter and other visual artifacts.
Alternatively, 120Hz image processing shows 120 frames per second, showing each film frame five times and each TV frame four times, allowing TVs to reproduce unconverted, evenly extrapolated 24 fps movie and 30 fps television programming. The LN46A650’s Auto Motion Plus 120 Hz technology virtually eliminates any motion blur and creates smooth transitions between frames. The result is a clearer picture you have to see to believe.
In this day of rapidly advancing TV technology, you need to be ready for anything the broadcasters and movie makers throw at you. The Samsung LN46A650 is there for you with the kind of connections that will make sure you’re prepared for the long haul. With one HDMI input on the side and three in the back, you can add as many high definition peripherals as you need.
In case you still prefer the standard DVD player or even VCR, the LN46A650 offers component, S-video, and composite inputs as well. Wiselink lets you easily hook up your MP3 player or digital camera to your TV with the USB 2.0 connection. A simple user interface lets you scroll through and view play lists and pictures. You can zoom, rotate or play photo slide shows and even add music. With this TV, your bases are covered.
Sound makes this set complete. If you don’t have the full surround sound setup, you can still get a rich sound from the LN46A650 with its SRS TruSurround XT. TruSurround is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience through any two-speaker playback system, including internal television speakers and headphones. It is fully compatible with all multichannel formats up to 5.1 channels.
