Samsung UE40F7000 Gets 5 Star Review from What Hi Fi

The stunning Samsung has just been awarded from What Hi-Fi magazine a brilliant 5 star review so we thought it’s a great opportunity to show you more about what this Television can offer you.

Aesthetics

Not only does the Samsung come packed with features that we will explain, it also has been manufactured to be pleasing on the eye too. With its slim yet elegant styling it looks rather smart even when powered off and features a very thin bezel surround. It also benefits from a built in camera which pops up when in use at the top of the UE40F7000 TV which can be used for its motion control option that allows you to control thing such as changing the volume or the channel without having to use your remote (good for when its vanished down the side of the sofa as they usually have a habit of doing!)


Incredible picture reproduction

The Samsung UE40 provides you with immense high quality picture reproduction on the 40 inch screen. Contrast levels are excellent and black level reproduction is truly deep, perfect for watching movies allowing you to see a film in the way a Director intended for you to see it. With a Full HD 1080p picture resolution details are reproduced with detail and definition, colour reproduction is true to life without being too obtrusive.

The Samsung UE40F7000STXXU also offers you the chance to make use of the Active 3D functionality. 2 pairs of active glasses are included so you can enjoy content straight out of the box. 3D viewing is amazing with true depth to the images being viewed on screen. Freeview HD and Freesat HD are also available on the Samsung 40F7000 too for further enjoyment options.  

Connectivity

The Samsung 40F7000 offers a whole range of connectivity options for you to choose from including 4 HDMI sockets, 3 USB’s, composite, component, RGB Scart and Ethernet and others as well along with built in Wi-Fi too so should satisfy everyone’s requirements!

With Samsung’s 7000 and 8000 series TVs you don’t have to worry about being future proof as this TV allows for you to connect Samsung’s latest product the Samsung VG-SEK1000 which allows you to upgrade the module responsible for picture performance and features so just like getting a new TV when features change but without the cost of a new set.

Other Features

The Samsung UE40 certainly doesn’t lack in the features department as it’s not all just about picture reproduction as there are some smart features such as voice control, built in Wi-Fi and Samsung’s Smart Hub. The Smart Hub allows you access to a whole plethora of apps such as social networks from the likes of Facebook, Twitter and Skype. Films and TV shows are available on apps like Lovefilm and Netflix and with the S recommendation feature after a while your TV will recommend content for you to watch based on your viewing previously.

So summing up as you really can’t explain all the features in detail, the Samsung UE40 really is a set that offers you an entertainment and packed TV that not only performs brilliantly but looks amazing too.  And if you are looking for a set that is that bit bigger, this model also comes in a 46 inch, 55 inch or a huge 65 inch all offering the same stunning functionality so have a look at the range here.
