When you think of a Samsung TV, you first think of an LED TV, right? The Korean company invented the misleading terminology, and has built its reputation on LED televisions over the last few years. But what may come as surprise is that the company’s plasma TVs are actually its strongest products, and have been […]
The E450 has only 720p resolution, which actually breaks down to 1,024×768 pixels. This pixel count is common for entry-level plasmas, and naturally the TV has an onboard scaler that processes any input up to 1080p to the screen’s native resolution. The TV, like most plasmas these days, features a 600Hz subframe processor, which is […]
That said, the somewhat more expensive U50 was the superior TV here, with amazing shadow detail and almost pure blacks. The Samsung is good at producing deep blacks, but it just so happens that the Panasonic is great. Compared with the others, the E550 was largely similar (although the E450 did get slightly deeper in […]
In light of excellent performance elsewhere it’s disppointing to see this TV fall down in terms of picture processing. But what does this mean in the real world? If you watch a lot of Blu-ray movies the TVs inability to provide 1080p/24 cadence means that film buffs might notice judder, especially on pans, but on […]
Yahoo, Inc. announced that it will pay back 85 percent of the proceeds from $7.6 billion sale of half its stake in China’s Alibaba Group. The company released the statement on Tuesday after finalizing the deal. A few months ago the company said that it might pay back all of the proceeds but tracked back […]
The 2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 is the closest thing that we’ve got this generation to a wagon version of the C350 sport sedan with which it shares its platform and 3.5-liter, V-6 engine. “But wait,” you’re probably saying as you look at the photos above, “isn’t that a big SUV?” I can understand your confusion; conventional […]
Torque exits the engine via a single-option seven-speed automatic transmission before heading to the wheels. Just which wheels provide motivational duties depends on which drivetrain option box you checked at the dealership. The standard configuration sends power through the rear wheels, but a $2,000 4Matic all-wheel-drive package splits power between the front and rear wheels. […]
Fuel economy for our 4Matic-equipped model is estimated at 19 city mpg, 24 highway mpg, and 21 mpg combined. Skip the all-wheel drive in favor of a rear-driven model and you can add 1 mpg to the highway estimate. Those efficiency estimates aren’t particularly heinous, but the middle-of-the-pack averages aren’t much to get excited over […]
Bimmers tend to be dual-personality cars, going from mild-mannered premium vehicle to road-eating beast at the push of a button or three. But the 2013 BMW M5 is mostly brutish Mr. Hyde, with only a little bit of refined Dr. Jekyll in evidence. BMW includes all sorts of creature comforts in the M5, such as […]
The 2013 M5 is one potent road machine, even more so than the M3. If you don’t live near a good racetrack that hosts track days, don’t buy one; 99 percent of its potential will go to waste. And drivers who think sports cars and technology don’t mix should also steer clear, as the M5 […]
Push the three performance-setting buttons on the console once, and the M5 goes into Sport mode. The suspension takes on a notably stiffer quality, the wheel tightens up, giving more road feedback through its hydraulic power-steering boost, and the gas pedal becomes a more sensitive instrument. These settings work best for serpentine back roads with […]
Verizon Wireless is the child conceived by to big players in the telecommunications industry and now both want its custody. One of the biggest wireless carriers in the US is still to roll out the annual dividend to both Verizon Communications and Vodafone. Verizon Comm holds 55 percent share in Verizon Wireless, while the British […]
