In the same way that fuller figured models are having such an impact on the catwalk, the C650 pushing against a tide of stick thin flat panel TVs is strangely refreshing.
With no 3D capability or LED backlighting the LE40C650 actually sits somewhere towards the bottom end of Samsung's range of 2010 flat panel TVs. As we were to realize however, the C650 reflects the fact that 'budget' TVs have come a long way in a relatively short space of time.
The C650's Black Level ability is the first indication that we have come across a screen which offers something a little different. That something different is a level of contrast that belies its budget status.
To get this level of black level response you would normally have to invest in a Plasma or an LCD TV with LED backlighting. The screen reveals no hint of greyness, just deep luscious inky jet blacks.
Results are equally impressive in a brighter room. Unlike a number of other screens we have come across, ambient light does not seep through the screen to produce those tell tale grey areas.
