LED dreams
It's been haunting the back of your mind for quite some time: a thin panel HDTV for your home theatre that not only looks good in your home, but looks good when you're watching it. While the Samsung 40D6000 LED HDTV may seem like a dream, you can be assured its a vivid one thanks to the edge-lit panel with 1080p clarity. Samsung's Auto Motion Plus 120Hz processing with Clear Motion Rate makes sure that fast action from movies and sports remains crisp and clear. Colors shine through thanks to a Wide Color Enhancer, and the Ultra Clear Panel makes sure that the screen remains clear no matter where you sit. Maybe it's time to make your HDTV dreams into HDTV realities.
High IQ HDTV
Streaming is so 2010. Samsung's Smart TV takes streaming, and takes it to the next level. Not only do you get access to great content from your favorite providers like Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and more, you also get social features like sharing what you're watching on Facebook and Twitter. Plus, Smart TV is able to help you find shows, movies, photos, songs, and more through your network of streaming services and your home computer. You can also get real time news headlines, sports scores, stock reports, weather, and plenty of other information on your TV. New services are continually being added, meaning your TV will be able to provide you with plenty of content for years to come. With SmartTV, you've got access to a whole world of information and entertainment without ever leaving your couch.
More content, more quickly
We've all been there: flipping through the channels and finding nothing to watch. Samsung solves your no content discontent with AllShare DLNA networking capability, allowing you to tap into the biggest content collection in your home — your home computer. Connect your Samsung HDTV to the your home network with an ethernet cable or wireless bridge, and you'll be able to stream movies, music, photos, and more straight from the digital well with minimal setup. You can even display your own content without stopping at the computer: ConnectShare allows you to connect a USB flash drive or compatible camcorder directly to your HDTV and start playing. With AllShare and ConnectShare, you may never find yourself with nothing to watch … the problem will be figuring out where to start!
Black is the new green
Samsung doesn't just preach eco-friendly, they build it into their HDTVs. This LED HDTV is up to 50% more efficient than current ENERGY STAR standards. Features like the Eco Sensor sense ambient room light and lower backlighting for more efficiency lead to not only more savings for your pocketbook, but better picture quality as well. Responsible energy use has never looked so good.

I researched the market for 40 inch HDTVs very thoroughly and came up with the Samsung UN40D6000 as the best choice. I was looking for Wi-Fi internet, LED back lighting and three analog inputs. Samsungs literature promised all these features. I was therefore very disappointed to find that the TV had no wireless adapter. It is sold separately. Also, the three AV inputs had shrunk to two when delivered although three are shown in the instruction book hook up diagram. On top of that, the glass screen is very reflective, a big disadvantage that was a negative feature of Plazma TVs. I also discovered that the remote that is supplied does not have programmability for an AV system, so now I need two remotes just to control channel and picture. All in all, I should return this TV because of the manufacturers false advertising. I guess its too late, Ive had it 10 days.

TV works great. Great Picture, I have one gripe. You would think that technology as it is, Audio should be taken into account. When I hook up my Macbook laptop to watch movies, , There is no audio that will transfer through to the TV speakers. I called Apple, I called Samsung, I called the place where I bought the TV and There is no solution to this particular audio issue when hooking up a laptop computer to the tv via cables. I have to hook up an external audio speaker system and cable to get sound or I will not be able to get audio period. . Why do things need to get so complicated? However this has nothing to do with Samsung in particular. The TV is great. If Samsung and other TV brands could perfect this one problem in being able to transfer Audio from a computer to the TV speakers without having to go through another speaker system, It would be better. I think technology needs to up it up a notch to cover this deficiency and get more simplified.

I like the streamline of the TV and the image is excellent. I havent tried all the bells and whistles that come with a smart TV but I am sure my kids will figure it out. I like the LED system that it is of low energy consumption. Now I need to get HDTV hooked up however it looks great with the digital signal too. Went to Costco and bought a $79 wall TV support system.... it was easy to install and works like a charm. My wife thought it would be too big for the bedroom but after I installed it she could not believe the room it created by folding it back against the wall when we are done watching. Great TV we recommend it at a great price point.

I have owned about 4 LCD Flat screen TVs. This one has a picture that simply blows the others out of the water - highly detailed and realistic. The 40 size is perfect for our home office. The networking features are awesome and were a breeze to set up. Vanns price was the best and they delivered at no cost. We simply couldnt be happier with our purchase.

I ordered this TV recently from VANNS. I got this TV as it is very energy efficient and light. I live in Manhattan and move frequently. Lugging a heavy TV to a new apartment can be a pain. The samsung un40d6000 is extremely light weighing in at only 30 lbs with the stand. It is also the most energy efficient smart TV that I could find. It is also smart tv feature rich so you wont need a ROKU or Revue. You can order movies right from the TV. I dont notice a glare coming from the TV and am able to watch it from any angle. This model didnt come with an internet browser but you could always hook up a REVUE to it if you need one badly or just get the un40d6300.

The display has very good clarity, especially at less than 1080p input, i.e., SD signal from a satellite feed. Installation and set-up was very user friendly. Adusjtments to the display and the audio output are fairly straight forward using the on-screen displays and menus. One bonus is a description of each adjustment that indicates what the adjustment does... quite helpful. Three items to be aware of but NOT necessarily negatives... One, there is no printed users manual included. There is an e-manual you can access and display onscreen, but you have to page thru each screen to find an answer. There is no excuse for not including a fully detailed printed users manual. Second, the picture sizing function has two zoom features. However, these only operate with a SD or 480p signal input. When the signal input is 720p or higher, the zoom function is disabled. Third, the analog sound output is a 3.5mm jack, not a separate left and right RCA type of jack. It works, but one needs the correct type of cable to connect to a stereo receiver. Overall, I have been impressed...

I really love the incredibly sharp picture and clear sound on this TV. I use the TV to listen to Pandora, share pictures with Picasa, and will soon be streaming Netflix. The free Hulu app is not part of the TV instead there is HuluPlus for $7.99 which seems to have most shows, but no news channels. There are lots of apps to explore, but you have to register for each one separately on an old fashioned phone style keyboard. I would like to log in to my FB account, but have not yet been successful. I guess the good news is that you only have to accomplish these tasks once. Too bad Samsung is not able to figure out how to allow you do do this on your computer where the keyboard is more natural and typing a lot faster. To create a home theatre system with the Smart TV you need to purchase Samsung compatible products. I found out the hard way that a Pioneer receiver was not compatible with the TV. The TV has exceeded my expectations.

I have just received the new TV and it seems to be awesome I need to use some of the features and play a Blue Ray disc and see how that picture is. Geoff in internet sales was very accommodating and pleasant to work with. The first 40D6000 was refurbished and had some problems on arrival so I am sending it back tomorrow and have received the replacement. I will continue to use Vanns for my electronic needs. I like the service. I like that it is a midwestern company and I like the way the staff treated me. Sincerely, Ken Morrow, DVM

This is our third Samsung HD TV. We did not look at any other brand because of how well our other Samsung TVs have performed. This TV has the Red Touch of Color, which I think is a beautiful addition. The picture is outstanding, better than our 58 Plasma which I didnt think was possible. It is simple to set up & operate. No disappointment in the TV or picture quality whatsoever.

I primarily chose this Samsung TV over similar specs from other brands Sony, LG for two reasons - Sleek design - the TV has a thin glassy edge that gives it a modern feel. At about 1 inch thick, once mounted the TV looks virtually flat on a wall. Overall, you may get about the same sleekness from a Sony LED, however at MUCH higher price. I understand a TV purchase must first be made on basis of image and performance, but nowadays TVs have become the largest items in living rooms so if the look of your living room matters to you, then should the look of your TV. - Vivid colors - choosing between the Sony and the Samsung LED TVs on basis of image quality was more difficult. Looking at both side by side, I found the Sony images slightly crispier. However, the Samsung TV delivered the best colors, hands down. There are a few images that words alone cant express, and LED TV images are among them. Try watching both the Samsung TV and its Sony or LG counterparts side by side, and appraise the difference. Thats what I did. And watching Planet Earth on the Samsung TV won me in 10 sec. -Cons To connect the Samsung TV to Internet, one must buy the wireless router in addition to the TV itself. A few more bucks.
