The Samsung LA46A950 is without a doubt the best LCD television we’ve seen up until this point and proof that the technology has some fire left in it yet.

Design of the Samsung LCD TV

Television design has been getting a little silly of late, what with the LG Scarlet’s “love hole” and the Sony ZX1’s wall-mount bracket in a fetching, scratchy piano-black that no-one will ever see, sony bravia so it’s refreshing to find a TV as understated as Samsung’s Series 9. After all, people visit the Louvre for the pictures, not the frames.

But that’s not to say that design has come last in the construction of this TV — it’s actually quite a stunner, with a faux-carbon fibre finish and a clear plastic trim. While it’s not as slim as the Series 8, it’s certainly sturdier with a solid, non-swivelling glass stand.

Our only gripe is with the on-board controls, they are impossible to see under most lighting conditions. Unless you have a light shining directly on them — which is a no-no for television viewing — you won’t be able to find them. They are of the capacitive type, but will light up when you … erm, rub the area.
