It looks really washed out, which is exactly what a contrast ratio that high is supposed to prevent.<br><br>I'm sure the reflections on the screen are the problem, but that's not exactly a selling point for the TV either - these things are supposed to prevent reflections!<br><br>Compare this to the pics of the OLED panel that was up here a few days ago, it's like night and day.  (I'm sure in person there's little, if any, visible difference in picture quality... but this is just a bad photo.)<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung 50-inch HDTV with 10000:1 contrast ratio]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually, the domestic model should be available within a month with an MSRP of $5K. (Samsung HP-R5052) Of course, if you're really jonesing for that 10,000:1 contrast ratio, the 42" SP-R4232 is available at retail right now for half that. I haven't seen them myself, but word is that samsung might have... exaggerated. Just a bit. (They reportedly have very good blacks and a nice bright image, but not 2x-3x better than everyone else)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Adrian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung 50-inch HDTV with 10000:1 contrast ratio]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</guid><description><![CDATA[#3 - If you're spending $6000 on a TV, you better have a sleek universal remote of your own.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Anthony]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung 50-inch HDTV with 10000:1 contrast ratio]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</guid><description><![CDATA[Can Engadget start removing females from any pictures they post.

Contrast ratio can be a bit misleading anyway. If you just make your whites eye searingly bright, and leave the 'black' as it is; you can up the contrast ratio. Of course, this doesn't necessarily benefit the overall picture -- you blacks are still a murky dark grey, and the colour balance goes out the window if you turn the brightness all the way up to 11.<br><br>I think Tom's Hardware have a good article on the marketing misnomer that is contrast ratio. I can't be bothered to find the URL -- you've got Google haven't you?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung 50-inch HDTV with 10000:1 contrast ratio]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/27/samsung-50-inch-hdtv-with-10000-1-contrast-ratio/</guid><description><![CDATA[Mmmmm... temptation....<br><br><br><br>#1 - I hope you get banned.
