I notice comments on DLNA support creeping in to more of your reviews of TVs, blu-ray players etc. Any chance of a feature on the state of play of DLNA sometime soon? While it sounds like a great idea in theory the implementation varies - I also believe the media and containers supported are limited - I guess basically my question is - is it worth paying extra for or would you be better of with something like an AC Ryan streaming media player?
Backlighting: I assume this isn't LED backlit despite the "LE" model number otherwise you would have said so but it would be nice if you were explicit this - and while we're on the subject when are you going to start putting power consumption figures in your specs? - some of us muesli eating tree huggers want to know this stuff.
How does this compare with the B550 you rated so highly last year? I started looking into which TV to buy only this week and saw your review but in searching for the B550 found the major retailers now sell the C530/C580 instead and presumed it was the latest model (the B550 review was from 11 months ago)
Is this a step backwards in terms of the B550 though or like you say.. are you just judging it harsher as the competition advances?
It's weird. I expected there to be a directly numbered '50' successor to the B550 too, but it doesn't look like there isn't. Like you said it's either the C530 or C580. (For anyone interested) the distinctions listed on Samsung's spec sheets are : 3 HDMIs vs. 4, 1 USB vs. 2, and no mention of Freeview HD on the C530.
Are you sure the C650 is 200Hz? A lot of the other sites seem to point it out being 100Hz which would fit the general trend of : 5 Series, 50Hz; 6 Series, 100Hz; Highest end range, 200Hz.
The C650 is the review I'm most interested in (I'm personally most tempted toward 46") as there's a scarcity of reviews on the moderately featured standard LCDs. All the coverage is going to flashy, pricey thin LED and 3D models. Plus it's hard to find these things in the flesh, out on the showroom floor - again LCDs are easy to find at the 32 inch level, but for larger TVs everyone tries to upsell customers to LED, 3D and Plasma, when a lot of us don't have the pocket for it. Hopefully you'll get this in soon.
Some of us will also be looking for what type of panel they send out to you too as this is one of the hardest things to confirm either online, in store or even on the phone to Samsung themselves, and there's no evidence that Samsung have given up on their panel lottery racket.
This is only the 2nd review of the latest 32" tv`s that I have found. I hope there will be alot more - maybe the Samsung 32" 6 series will fair better
