Samsung's Bordeaux PAVV LCDs: 17,000:1 contrast and ACAP

Hot on the heels of their PAVV plasmas come three new PAVV LCDs. The 40-, 46-, and 52-inch models all bring a 1080p resolution to the game with 3x HDMIs and a sweet 17,000:1 contrast -- barely nudging out the trio of Bordeaux LCDs unveiled back in March. These sets also feature ACAP, as in Advanced Common Application Platform for interactive television -- part of the ATSC spec we're familiar with Stateside. However, at the moment these sets are S.Korea-only tagged ?3,200,000 (about $3,424) for the LN40M92BD, ?4,200,000 (about $4,494) for the LN46M92BD, and ?5,400,000 (about $5,779) for the LN52M92BD.

Get that big black box thingie out of there, it's obscuring the view!

While debate rages on about which TV touts the best performance, there can be no doubt that Samsung really knows how to make an amazing looking TV. Their last series were the best looking TV's around, and I think this new set looks even better. Performance aside, it's easy to appreciate this set on beauty alone

Samsung is a Korean company - literally meaning "3 Stars", and I doubt any Korean would find it flattering to be confused for Japanese - in fact, quite the opposite.

Thank you in Korean isn't "arigato", it's "komapsumnidad".

Samsung is Korean. Arigato is Japanese.

[L. Cyphre @ Jun 13th 2007 11:57AM]

Good story, interesting plot development and life-like characters. Epic ending. Definitely Hollywood adaptation material.

[Adoniteking @ Jun 13th 2007 11:48AM]

[Rob Paek @ Jun 13th 2007 12:26PM]

actually it is easy to tell the difference... korean women are hotter!

[reductant @ Jun 13th 2007 2:15PM]

Whatever. God, all you freaking losers with Yellow Fever make me sick. You have a pathological obsession with Asian women and it's disgusting. I lived in Japan for a long time, so I can say whatever I want about the subject.

[hoeun kim @ Jun 13th 2007 2:23PM]

why the hell would samsung use japanese women when it is a korean company?? that makes so much sense, you ignorant bastard, assuming every asian women is gonna be japanese.

[Jitty @ Jun 13th 2007 2:24PM]

Let me guess; 17,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio?

[david @ Jun 13th 2007 3:22PM]

[L. Cyphre @ Jun 13th 2007 3:33PM]
