Thanks to the design One Design of Samsung , with its tiny frame size, the screen dominates almost the entire front of the TV. This feature makes the edge practically disappear when the equipment is running, conveying a sense of design and quality to the user. TVs Samsung LED 7000 Smart TV equipped with a screen LED with resolution Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) . The working frequency is 800 Hertz , and the contrast is benefited by the Micro Dimming Pro technology . This allows the Series 7000increase or decrease the brightness of specific areas of the screen, depending on what the TV is currently broadcasting. In this way, in clear and bright images, the system increases the illumination of the corresponding area on the screen, while in dark fragments, the backlight is reduced, thus increasing the contrast.

Other proprietary Samsung technologies , such as the MoIP Backlight Enhancer , or the Wide Color Enhancer (Plus) or the Web Video Enhancer take care of achieving a high-quality image at all times. On the other hand, technology 3D Hyper Real Engine allows us to enjoy three - dimensional images with quality Full HD . The system 3D of the 7000 Series will support an active glasses to create the three - dimensional effect. These active glasses work by alternately darkening your lenses in sync with the operating frequency of the television screen. The communication of the glasses with the TVIt can be via cable or through a wireless system, such as Bluetooth . With the purchase of a Samsung LED 7000 Smart TV , two pairs of glasses are included so that you can start enjoying 3D as soon as you install the TV. Likewise, the equipment has a 2D to 3D image converter that we can activate with any signal source, be it DTT , a DVD , or the computer input.

Sound

To transmit the sound, the Samsung 7000 Series are equipped with a Full Range stereo speaker system of the Down Firing type (focused downwards) of 10 + 10 watts of power. The processor features an equalizer with preset settings, which also allows manual adjustment, and automatic volume control to avoid sudden level changes when announcements arrive or when switching input sources. It also includes Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby Pulse audio encoding , as well as an SRS surround sound simulation feature called DNSe .

The name Full Range means that the speakers are capable of reproducing the full range of frequencies included in the audio transmission, from bass to treble. Of course, just because the speakers are capable of reproducing the full range of frequencies does not mean that they all sound equally good. It is obvious that in the TV -screen TVs not much room to include a speaker with enough size to transmit sound good, especially with regard to bass frequencies are concerned. The result is playback with enough volume and clarity for watching TV programs.or movies at normal volume, but that can fall short when it comes to enjoying a movie session or when we want to listen to music. In any case, users looking for higher quality sound would do well to complete the purchase of the television with one of the many sound bars or projectors currently on the market.
