Buy a cheap Samsung LED TV for the best price at LED TV Prices
Samsung was the first manufacturer on the market to offer consumer LED TVs, and currently has the biggest range to choose from. Here's our guide to the Samsung range of LED TVs, and a few tips to help you pick the right Samsung LED TV for you.
Samsung LED TV Model Numbers
Each Samsung LED TV on the market has a unique model number (e.g. UE32B6000). Using UE40B7000 as an example, this can be interpreted as follows:
UE - The region code. UE shows the TV is a European model, whereas UN shows the TV is an American model.
40 - The next two numbers indicate the screen size in inches. This can be 32, 37, 40, 46 or even 55. In this case, the screen size is 40 inches.
B - Unknown. May become apparent in the future.
7000 - The series number. This can be 6000, 7000, 7020, or 8000 (explained later). These respectively indicate that the TV is from the 6, 7, 7 or 8 series of Samsung LED TVs.
Samsung 6 Series LED TVs
The Samsung 6 Series is indicated by a 6000 at the end of the model number. This is the lowest priced range of Samsung LED TVs - the entry-level series for those who'd love to have an LED TV but can't afford to splash out. Whilst there is a bit of a sacrifice in specification, these TVs offer great value for money, whilst providing the same latest LED technology seen in the higher Samsung series.
Samsung 6 Series LED TVs typically offer a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1, a refresh rate of 100Hz, and only a single USB port. They also do not feature the Medi@2.0 technology, which allows you to access widgets and internet content on your TV.

Samsung 7 Series LED TVs
The Samsung 7 Series is indicated by a 7000 or 7020 at the end of the model number. This is the middle range of Samsung LED TVs, and typically the most popular choice for buyers. Although a little more expensive than the 6 Series, the 7 Series offers an improved specification and offers a more feature-rich LED television.
Unlike the 6 Series and 8 Series, the 7 Series is divided into two groups. The differences between 7000 and 7020 Samsung LED TVs are only aesthetic, and are as follows:
7000 - These models are exclusive to the DSGi group, so can only be bought at Dixons, Currys, PC World and online retailer Pixmania. Instead of the Platinum Black colour of the 7020 TVs, this group of LED TVs has a Rose Black tint.
7020 - These models are found at all other retailers. The only difference is in aesthetic design, with this group having a Platinum Black colour as opposed to the 7000's Rose Black. All other aspects of the specification (refresh rate, contrast ratio, etc) are exactly the same for the two groups.
Samsung 7 Series LED TVs typically offer a contrast ratio of 3,000,000:1, a refresh rate of 100Hz, and two USB ports. This series is the lowest to feature the Medi@2.0 technology, allowing you to view live news and weather, download new content, wirelessly stream photos from computers and phones, and even use Twitter from your TV.
