Samsung Announces World's First 3D LED TVs

Samsung made some huge announcements today at the 3D Wonder Event in New York City, including the world's first-available 3D LED TV. A full lineup of other 3D home entertainment products were announced (new Blu-ray players, Blu-ray home theater systems), but today we're going to focus on the new 3D TVs.

Samsung's 3D TV lineup includes the LED 7000/8000/9000 Series, LCD 750 Series, and the Plasma 7000/8000 Series. Available this month are the 3D capable 46" and 55" LED C7000, with the remaining 3D TVs rolling out over the next several months.

Samsung's 3D LED TVs (models C7000, C8000 and C9000), feature Samsung's Real240Hz refresh rate technology and Samsung's proprietary built-in 3D processor. The LED TVs also come with Internet@TV connectivity and access to Samsung Apps, so you can stream movies, play games, view photos, and more while you watch TV. The 3D LED TVs are eco-conscious too, exceeding EnergyStar 4.0 guidelines.

The 46- and 55-inch C7000 will ship in March and are priced at $2,600 and $3,300 respectively.

Samsung also announced a promotional program where everyone who purchases a 2010 Samsung 3D TV and 3D Blu-ray Player or Home Theater System will receive a 3D starter kit that includes 2 pairs of Samsung active shutter 3D active glasses and a 3D Blu-ray version of DreamWorks Animation’s 2009 release, Monsters vs. Aliens - a Samsung exclusive.
