Make a statement with SAMSUNGs new Touch of Color design. It features a hint of color naturally blended into the traditional piano black frame. Transforming our already stylish TVs into a work of art, it truly is unlike anything youve ever seen.
Customer Review: How thin is it really, wall mounting
Perhaps most people will use the included stand, and set it on top of a console that is 18″-20″ deep, so the thinness is more wow factor (the 950 LED is actually thicker). But when wall mounting, chosen to balance the height between seated and standing (centerline above floor 55″), thin was an important factor in my install. The side of the TV will be visible in the normal traffic flow through the house, so I wanted to get this mounted as cleanly and closely as possible so it wasn’t going to shout “I have a wall HDTV” the second someone walked in the house. I had some challenges. There are wall mount brackets that are 1/2″ thick (they don’t provide tilting adjustment). Since the power cord and patch cords project out the back, I tried to accomodate that by using a recessed AV mounting plate. In the end, I was able to get the TV to sit just 1″ from the wall. Routing 2 HMDI, component, SVHS, and audio cords behind the set was also a challenge. For those who are wanting to take this on, get the shortest AV cables you can find, and ones with the least amount of meat near the jack so that the cords bend freely (the more you pay, the more room the cable requires). Position carefully a recessed AV plate (I just couldn’t leave an open hole behind the sets for the cords). Watch the location of your studs, since the mounting plate and the AV panel will, most likely, span several studs. Patch cords with 90 degree cords would have been great, but I couldn’t find them. The end result is the face of the bezel is a respectable 2.9″ from the wall, about the same depth as a quality picture frame.
Customer Review: The Difference
So you wanted to know the difference? Here it is. It’s THINNER. Actually the thinnest Samsung has ever made @ 1.9″ Other than that nothing has changed between 750-850. However the 950 there has been a substantial change. LED SmartLighting as been added to the 950 which according to Samsung it only brightens the areas of the screen that need to be, in short this addition gives the 950 2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio.
