Samsung 8 Series 850 and 860 Slim LCDs: 1.9 Inches Thick, with Ethernet and a "Touch of Color"

Going for thin and pretty, Samsung launched its Series 8 LCDs—the 850 and 860 models—with new bodies that are just 1.9-inches thick at the middle, and thinner on the ends. The 120Hz sets also come with a "Touch of Color" thanks to injection molding—rose for the 850 and deep blue for the 860. A USB 2.0 jack lets you decode images and videos (including XviD and MPEG4) stored on hard drives or cameras. Connect the TV to your LAN via Ethernet or optional $35 wireless adapter, and you get access to DLNA content plus Samsung's new InfoLink RSS service, with news, stocks and weather info from USA Today, in "adjustable overlays". No word on when Giz would appear. Also, we're still waiting for the next gen LED backlit LCDs. Jump for more pics, plus specifications and pricing, which range from $2,700 to $3,500. More »

Samsung Monitors Get "Touch of Color" Treatment, 20000:1 Contrast Ratio

Samsung has four new monitors with the same amber-hued "Touch of Color" screens as their Series 6 and 7 TVs seen at CES. The T190 ($259), T220($359), T240($499), and T260($599) are 19, 22, 24, and 26 inches respectively, and feature a 20000:1 contrast ratio, which looked good to us despite the controversy that always surrounds contrast measurement. The monitors also feature adjustable aspect ratios and support for multi-screen functionality, among other qualities. The T190 and T220 are available now, and the other two will be out in July. Full release after the jump. [product page, Samsung] More »

Latest by Kaiser-Machead's Chips Ahoy!: @tehronin: Actually, the front end is a bit reminiscent of the Vanquish, at least around the arch over the front wheel to the headlights, but it's mostly in the shape and stance, not so much in the details. more »
