Conclusion
-
A few characteristics set Samsung and Sony televisions apart. Most of the 2009 Samsung LCD TVs have a glossy screen finish. While this helps with making the picture "pop" out, it is distracting in a well-lit room due to its mirror-like shine. The LED backlit LCDs by Samsung are thin, which is great for wall mounting. All of their TVs have a swiveling base.
