CES 2009

The newest LCDs in Samsung’s Touch of Color series are looking greener than ever. But that’s not such a bad thing. The Series 6 and 7 models adhere to strict energy efficiency guidelines, known as Energy Star v3.0. This means that you can expect less power consumption from your flat-panel display overall, which is a bonus when it comes to pricey consumer electronics equipment. Although this might seem to downgrade your flat-panel, Samsung says that the quality soars higher than ever with its latest models.

The Series 7 flat panels (available in 40-, 46-, and 52-inch models) feature a variety of innovative enhancements, including a 240Hz refresh rate, Auto Motion Plus technology, and the brand new Internet@TV Content Service. The latter lets you access widget-based content from Yahoo! like Flickr and the latest news and weather reports. The new Series 7 flat panels from Samsung will let you do more with your TV than you thought possible. Pricing for the Series 6 and 7 models has not been announced yet.
