Conclusion

Samsung C6000 is pretty much similar to the 2009 models in regards of design, functionality and inputs, besides the new DLNA function that is the best we have seen on a flat panel TV so far. It has support for most formats and the navigation is fast. The speakers in C6000 on the other hand are poor.

Picture quality has not been improved much compared to the 2009 line-up. The response time has been improved but color reproduction and black levels are pretty much the same. Black depth was measured to 0.05 cd/m2 which is good for a non LED local-dimming LCD-TV and shadow detailing is convincing, too, but we would have liked to see an improvement, just a minor one.

Summed up, this means fair SD and HD picture quality that is convincing but not overly impressive. Also, I’m a bit nervous about the clouding issues that we saw on our C6000 model.

All in all C6000 pretty much has the same characteristics as the 2009 LED models from Samsung. It’s no breakthrough but Samsung did manage to reduce the heavy trailing from the B7000 model. A good TV without critical flaws but the price is a bit too high.
