The UN46D8000 delivers Full HD 1080p resolution, for a superb level of detail and clarity in your picture. To connect your sources, four HDMI inputs are provided, for delivering a Full HD picture and audio over a single cable. Samsung UN46D8000 LED LCD boasts what may be the most strikingly beautiful design on a TV this year. Not only does it have a very thin profile, but the bezel is as small and unobtrusive as I have seen, and the screen has an amazing ability to soak up ambient light and keep it's piano black look when many other screens would be a washed out gray. While reflections are unavoidable with any glossy screen, the remaining screen area retains much more contrast than usual under harsh ambient light. The UN46D8000 has finally convinced this long time matte screen fan to cross over to the other side. Samsung Apps is a growing collection of premium apps specifically built for your TV that connects you to your favorite digital content such as movies from Netflix or Blockbuster, TV shows from Hulu Plus, videos from YouTube, Next Level sports information from ESPN, Music from Pandora, and social updates from Facebook or Twitter.
The UN46D8000 has a fantastic picture menu. Movie mode has just about every control a calibrator could wish for. However, getting the 10 point gamma/white balance control dialed in perfectly requires not only a good meter and measurement software, but also a lot of patience and experimentation. Whether you are viewing a premium-quality 2D picture or seeing incredible 3D depth, images are breathtakingly real in Samsung Full HD. Enjoy superb 2D 1080p clarity, deep rich blacks with Ultra Clear Panel and detailed contrast with advanced dimming technology. The Samsung LED 8000 series also includes a Full Web Browser to navigate the internet, a Search All feature so you can find videos via apps or other connected devices and a recommendation engine which suggests movies you might like from your Video-On-Demand services. Samsung Smart TVs allow your digital experiences to converge on a brilliant HD screen. Samsung 3D utilizes active shutter glasses which is the only way to experience 3D in Full HD 1080 (when coupled with a 3D source such as a Samsung 3D Blu-ray player or a Full HD broadcast from satellite or cable providers). Samsung 3D TVs also offer a unique feature that allows you to intensify your 2D viewing experience by upconverting it to immersive 3D.
