Ub News Press Release

In a preview published today, Televisions.com evaluates the design and features of the Samsung UE 46 B 7000. By referring to the product’s detailed specifications and by drawing on experience with other models in the B 7000 series, the team produced an in-depth discussion of the TV’s capabilities, concluding with a comparison to some competing models. Televisions.com praises the set’s slim casing, which is just 2.9 cm deep, but explains that placing the backlight’s LEDs around the edge of the screen stops the TV from performing local dimming in dark areas of the picture. There’s also praise for the set’s sophisticated multimedia capabilities, which include playback of a wide range of file types via both USB and a DLNA PC network. The pre-viewer was also pleased with the set’s internet connection – this provides the user with an online portal containing services such as You Tube and Flickr, although not with full, PC-style internet access.

The preview moves on to discuss the TV’s built-in tuners and connectivity, which fail to impress. Having already reviewed the related UE 40 B 7000, Televisions.com is able to offer readers some insights into the set’s operation – the preview’s author, Karl-Gerhard Haas, said: “Operation is also tricky during TV viewing: You can only access the aspect ratio setting indirectly through the ‘Tools’ button, and we found navigating through cable TV channels awkward.”

Televisions.com’s previews include a list of prices for all variants of the TV in question. In this case, the UE 46 B 7000 is available with either a black or red finish, both of which cost the same. Optional accessories, such as a sound bar and a wall bracket, are also discussed. The comparison section then compares the Samsung to six other LCD TVs currently on the market, in each case highlighting areas in which the Samsung, or its competitor, holds the trump card.

In a review published today, Televisions.com combines subjective picture-quality evaluation with sophisticated measurement techniques in order to evaluate the performance of the Sanyo PLV-Z 3000; this Full HD projector scored 6.6 out of 10 points. For example, the review team praised the projector’s versatile positioning and wide range of picture controls, as well as its high contrast ratio. But scathing criticism goes to the wildly inaccurate colours in the projector’s factory setup, and the review notes that the picture isn’t particularly bright. Televisions.com explains that, while the helpful picture controls allow users to correct the colour errors, there’s no way around the low brightness; the reviewer therefore recommends the projectors for screens no wider than two metres. Televisions.com’s head tester and editor-in-chief, Florian Friedrich, said: “This projector is a bit of a rough diamond: Only when you give it the necessary polish does it begin to shine, producing a contrast-rich movie picture with authentic colours.”

The projector’s features impress the reviewers, who praise the elegant, anthracite casing and handy motorized lens cover. The lens shift and 2x zoom also draw applause from Televisions.com, as does the device’s remote control. The projector’s brightness and colours are where the majority of the review’s criticism falls, but Televisions.com also highlights flaws in 576i movie playback. High-definition signals are also discussed, and get a largely positive write-up, apart from a little motion blur and some discolouration at the picture’s edges. The review then discusses the effect of the projector’s various presets on the picture’s brightness and contrast, before offering readers a list of settings intended to optimise the PLV-Z 3000’s picture in a dark home-cinema environment. One reviewer summarised by saying: “Although we’ve got many criticisms of the PLV-Z 3000, we still thought it was a decent projector. Once we’d calibrated the colours, we thoroughly enjoyed the Sanyo’s picture.”
