Samsung televisions were not very famous for their design; they used to be very bulky and ordinarily designed. But today, they are the manufacturers of top quality televisions with latest technology and alluring design. Samsung used the LCD and LED technology to the fullest by their innovative ideas and technology. Both LCD and LED televisions of the Korean multinational company are very popular for their unique features and ultra slim design. Samsung UE46D5000 is one of their latest launches in the LED range of televisions. It became famous due to their low price, as it costs almost equal to 46 Inch LCD television without LED backlight. It has almost all the features of a Full HD LED television. This really shows how Samsung is bothered about sustaining their position in the television race with their rivals. Samsung UE46D5000 can really give a tough competition among the best sellers.

Sleek and Elegant Design

Samsung UE46D5000 widescreen LCD television is specially designed to decorate the living room. However it could fit well even with a large master bedroom. The Full HDTV looks attractive even if it is wall mounted or kept with its stand. The colour is charcoal black and it looks really like a 46 inch digital photo frame when mounted on a white coloured wall. The slim and sleek design would really bring neighbor’s envy. There is a transparent post connects the base of the stand with the television. It really adds elegance to the television when its kept standing, but it gives a bit of unsteady feeling to the grip of the television, as the television is pretty weightless and fragile, it could be disturbed easily even by little shakes. When it is wall mounted, it’s all set to add extra elegance to the living room. The bezel is slightly wider than the higher end Samsung LED televisions. Over all Samsung made no mistake in the design of this 46 Inch LED HDTV.

The speaker is fitted down firing with full range. Dolby digital plus, SRS surround system and DTS 2.0 adds little bit spice to the audio when the supported input is given.
