This model is the 32'' version of the 60'' TV that we tested in our labs, the Samsung UE40D6500.
Everything we said in the original article holds true--the only thing that's different is the size!
The only exception is that some manufacturers fit different sized televisions with panels from different sources. In that case, our comments are only valid for the panel that we originally tested. Contrast, black levels, colour handling and ghosting are all subject to change from one panel to another.
Manufacturers who do fit the same panel in all of the TVs in a range can expect the same results across the whole range. The only factor which could be prone to slight variation is the brightness, producing slightly different contrast. According to our own tests, and assurances from manufacturers, the results of one TV can accurately be applied to others in the range.
Pluses
-
Great picture in 2D and 3D
-
Accurate colour reproduction (average deltaE: 2.3) and high contrast (ratio: 2630:1)
-
Powerful Motion Plus 200 filter
-
Low energy consumption: 169 W
-
Good media player with support for lots of video formats
Minuses
-
Glossy screen picks up reflections
-
Viewing angles too narrow
-
Crosstalk leads to viewers seeing double in 3D
-
Clouding on our test unit
The Samsung D6500 produces a great picture in both 2D and 3D, although there's a little too much crosstalk in 3D. It's still an excellent choice for anybody looking for excellent value for money in a flatscreen TV.
