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 19, 22, 26, 32, 37, 40, 46, 55 or even 65. In this case, the screen size is 40 inches.

B - B refers to the 2009 LED TV models, whilst C indicates the set is a 2010 model.

7 - The series number, which can be 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8. These respectively indicate that the TV is from the 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 series of Samsung LED TVs.

000 - The final three numbers finish the model number and give more information about the features and specification offered by that LED TV.
