The Samsung UN40C7000 is one of three 1080p LCD TVs released by Samsung in early 2010. All models in the 7000 Series feature a contemporary new design with LED edge lighting, but they maintain the same 1.2” depth of their 2009 predecessors. More importantly, the 7000 Series models—including the 40” UN40C7000—utilizes 3D-capable technology that, when combined with a 3D video source and 3D Active Glasses (sold separately), allows the user to experience a 3D effect. Included also is 240Hz Auto Motion Plus technology for reduced background blurring/noise; InternetTV for access to Internet widgets and Samsung applications (streaming video, Twitter, radio, Skype, etc); and four HDMI ports. Ethernet is included, but WiFi is optional.
