There’s a new TV on the block that gives you all the latest technology at a very reasonable price.
The Samsung UE40D6530 packs a real punch in its 40-inch screen.
Within that slimline beauty there’s all you could hope for in a modern television – Active 3D Technology, SMART features, integrated WiFi and there’s even subscription-free HD broadcasts without an external box.
I just love Samsung’s SMART TV. It provides access to hours of entertainment – video, music, social networking, news, games and more.
You can also watch all your online favourites, like BBC iPlayer and YouTube, on your TV by connecting to the internet wirelessly.
And you can see why they call it ‘Smart TV’. Over time it will recognise what movies and TV programmes you like, based on your viewing history – deciding what to watch on the box has never been so easy!
If like me you’re a social network nerd, you can watch TV and chat to friends on Facebook and Twitter all at the same time through your Samsung UE40D6530.
While watching Andy Murray the other night I was also messaging my views on the game at the same time. And I never missed a shot. I had Facebook and tennis both on my TV screen.
You can even search your TV, the internet and any connected devices all at once through the ‘search all’ browser.
If you’re worried about what your children might be able to view, the Samsung SMART TV web Browser includes a child lock facility, ensuring it is safe for all the family.
Personal Video Recorder (PVR) technology also means you can play back your favourite shows anytime you want.
As for the viewing quality itself, this TV has it all.
3D is here to stay, so now is the time to invest in a 3D TV – and the Samsung UE40D530 is a very reasonably priced one.
Whether it’s an exciting film, or a thrilling game of football, 3D brings it to explosive life. You can even convert 2D movies to 3D.
When you think about how expensive it is to go out these days, the Samsung UE40D530 offers you years’ worth of free entertainment.
And if you’re going to invest in a new TV, make sure you get one with Full HD 1080p resolution – which of course this Samsung has.
LCD TVs with LED backlighting have greater contrast ratios. Blacks appear blacker, giving a sharper image and better colour and clarity.
They also consume less power than similarly-sized traditional LCDs and are mercury free.
It means compact dimensions too – the D6530 is less than 3 cm thick, a great look for any living room.
What I love about these modern TVs is that you can use all those beautiful picture qualities for your own images.
You can view photos and videos from your cameras by plugging into the Samsung UE40D6530’s USB. Imagine seeing your children’s faces light up on a 40inch screen in full HD – magic.
