"This TV has a lot going for it, from great looks before you even plug it in through to sharp, pleasing HD images and decent Freeview fidelity. The audio isn’t cinephile quality, but fine for day-to-day use. The addition of limited Internet access, though mostly a gimmick, is enjoyable enough - apart from slow YouTube loading times. ..."

"ts advanced LED-based backlight technology uses significantly less energy than traditional LCD TVs and even complies with the stricter EEC requirements to come. What’s more, this ultra-thin panel also allows for smaller and more economic packaging, enhancing its ‘green’ credentials."

"spectacular" (9 out of 10 points) "Editor's Choice"
While plasma is still the leader in screen technology, LCD is closing in with LED edge-lighting, as evinced in Samsung's UE40B7000WW. Media support is phenomenally good, especially with MKV files in this excellent set.

"excellent" (5 out of 5 stars)
Tiny differences in image colour between Samsung's UE40B7000 40" LCD TV and its identical sibling can be erased with careful tweaking. Boundless specs, fine image quality and design are let down by less than equal audio. Either this or its twin make a fine choice though.
