It is perfect for people looking for something a little bit special. As it’s available in three colours – pink, gold and silver – there is sure to be one for you.
More Than Just A Camera

The Samsung i70 offers 7 multimedia functions, including a Camcorder, MP3 player, Portable Multimedia Player, Text viewer, Voice recorder and Portable disk. With Codec and SRS WOW HD, and world-famous 3D audio technology, the Samsung i70 enables the user to enjoy lively 3D audio quality when used as an MP3 player or PMP. So you get more than just a camera, you get a complete travel companion that fulfills all your other needs too. Listen to music and watch videos, while on the go. You can even use some of the devices simultaneously. Why take a book, laptop and MP3, when you can just take your camera?
The powerful video capability of the Samsung i70 delivers a "camcorder like" experience. For a more enhanced movie shooting experience, the Samsung i70 uses MPEG-4(640 x 480 30fps), the high-compression high-quality video format, which can record for up to 3-4 times longer than the traditional video formats used in many other digital cameras. So you can capture your holiday moments, such as whales watching, the Safari or the simple moments like your child giggling, with greater clarity and for longer.
Intuitive To The Touch
Using Flash Animation GUI (Graphical User Interface) the Samsung i70 provides an expressive, dynamic Graphic User Interface. The icons move on the LCD according to the operation of the buttons, so you can understand the camera’s functions easily, and have fun while using them. The use of icons ensures the camera is easy to navigate, helping you find what you want, fast.
Face Recognition AF & AE
With its intelligent Face Recognition AF & AE function, the Samsung i70 enables the user to take excellent portrait pictures easily. The function detects the subjects face and automatically focuses on them. Then the camera automatically adjusts the settings and exposure, including the face, to optimize the image and give you the best picture. There is no need to manually do anything, it quickly recognizes faces and sets the focus and exposure to give you the most accurate and engaging picture possible. So, next time you’re snapping a friend in the bustle of a street market you can be sure to get the focus just right.
Sharper Shots
Clear, vivid pictures can be taken even in dim light with the ISO1000 high sensitivity support, helping you to capture your candle lit dinner with confidence. This setting lets you to take clear indoor pictures in poor light without camera shake or image blurring.
Advanced Shake Reduction (ASR)
The ASR technology prevents the degradation of image clarity and colour common in flash photography. With ASR the effects of camera shake are reduced in lower light conditions. You can even take well exposed, sharper pictures in low light without using a flash at all, which guarantees brighter and more natural pictures.
Red-eye Fix function
The Red-eye Fix technology programmed into the camera automatically eliminates red eye in shoot and play modes, allowing you take a more natural portrait photo. So say goodbye to near-perfect pictures that have been ruined by red-eye and start capturing your moments more accurately.
Wise Shot
This feature takes a shot using both Advanced Shake Reduction and Flash simultaneously. It then lets you compare the results and save the best picture. So instead of having to take a few pictures on different settings to get the shot right you have more chance of right first time. Perfect for those group shots where the smiles get more forced the longer they have to pose while you get the shot right.
14 Scene modes
The 14 Scene modes enable anyone to take the best pictures with ease, in different shooting environments – including Night, Portrait, Children, Landscape, Macro, Text, Sunset, Dawn, Backlight, Fireworks, Beach and Snow, Self-Shot, Food, and Cafe. So your most common scene settings are ready at your finger tips.

Outstanding!!!!
This camera is outstanding. This camera well excelled the Sony Cybershot range by miles!!!! The large screen, with its high resolution shows the photograhs which you have taken in the taken quality. You would not be disspointed. I got mine at Currys and i got a 2 GB memory card, a case and cover for 3 years for £200.
This camera is recommended 400%!!!
Not Outperformed
Excellent piece of kit!
Apart from having problems with delivery (camera went missing on a bfpo address), amazon refunded me and I bought the camera elsewhere due to lack of stock.
This camera has an instruction book that looks daunting however the camera is very easy to pick up and go. Photos are flawless and movie mode is good quality for a camera.
I also have a 2gb Kingston sd card from amazon which works perfectly so no complaints there.
The only complaint would be the software it seems very basic with no support for converting your movies to play on the camera, otherwise the camera is well up there with the +£200 cameras.
Highly recommended, buy one!
Memory Cards
I am really please with my Samsung i70 and have no problems using my 2GB Kingston SD card with it. i don't know if the previous reviewer had a faulty card or whether the camera doesn't take 4GB cards but it works fine with the 2GB version which gives me about 1000 images, enough for me!!! Great images, nice design and a great sceen. I would highly recommend.
Memory for this Camera
Be warned I bought a Kinston 4GB Memory and couldn't use it, and have wasted my money as I have had to buy a new memory card. No where do they tell you this but this camera will only take Toshiba, Panasonic or SanDisk Memory cards and only up to 2GB, otherwise the camera just doesn't turn on.
I haven't got to use my camera yet as it doesn't even come with a small Memory card when you buy it. I am waiting on my new memory card which hopefully should work.
I am so happy.
The quality of the pics are fab. Macro from 1cm. Amazing. Face recon. Photo wise (2 pics in one). The only down side I do not have the codex to watch the movie (I did send an e-mail to Samsung. They don't care, no reply after 3 weeks.). You cannot watch your movie (downloaded or recorder on TV)???. My old Sony did it. MP3 is great. Movie Player is great, But you can only compress mpeg movies not AVI or IFO. Otherwise if you are an expert you will have to use at list 3 softwares to put a DVD to your camera. The quality is so good and the design so perfect. 2 year guaranty. Don't Hesitate to buy it if you are ready to read a thick instruction book to get the best of it. This camera has the WOW effect for a very very cheap price!!!
No regrets. No regrets. I am so happy and I recomand it at 200%'

Very good camera, very good price...
Hi, firstly, this camera is very good quality for the price its up for, its got fantastic picture quality and lots of different modes to choose from for the more experienced photographer. however, if your not that 'tech-savvy', this camera is also great for you because its got and auto-mode which automatically selects the best settings for the conditions you are in. it has face recognition and best off all the automatic red-eye eraser; as soon as take a photo it gets rid of the red-eye all by itself in about 2-3 seconds flat, no messing around on the computer afterwards needed, however if you like you can turn this off. the only reason this isnt 5 STARS is because when taking a photo, you have to look at the screen to see what you are capturing, whereas i would prefer to look through the lense myself on occassions, nothing really big then. overall, a great camera for a great price for all levels of photographer.

I bought this when it was on special offer at £99 app. So glad I did, it has everything you could need from a camera, mp3 player and video camera.
It is capable of taking 2 or 4 mb cards as well as the built in memory.
A 2mb card gives you 1 hour of video, more than enough for most events.
I managed to get a case that was meant for a mobile phone for a £5 from tesco. The 5x zoom just makes it that little bit more special as most cameras are 3x.
Excellent!!
This camera is one of the best I have ever used. The picture quality is amazing compared to our Canon 7mp unit. There are so many settings to play with but at the same time, it is uncomplicated. The video capture is also brilliant as well as the sound quality.
I have not tried to add any movies to it off of the PC yet but I have added some MP3s and the sound is bassy & clear.
The only down side I can think of is that it is a slightly awkward shape and difficult to find a case for!

Samsung LE46M87 46 inch Widescreen 1080P Full HD LCD TV With Freeview
Samsung LE46M87 - 46" Widescreen 1080P Full HD LCD TV - With Freeview
Samsung
HD Ready
HDTV allows you to experience television like never before with the widest range of colours and the clearest images. High Definition contains four or five times as many pixels making the image much clearer than standard definition.
Wide Colour Enhancer
This exclusive technology delivers more brilliant colours, even in bright areas of the picture where blues and greens are washed out on conventional screens. The system presents a wider colour gamut and four times as many colour gradations, showing you true colours; the fresh green of spring foliage, and the intense blue of the summer sky.
Movie Plus
Conventional LCD TVs are plagued by motion judder when showing fast moving action in movies and sporting events. The moving person or object looks shaky or blurred, like a series of still images, instead of a smooth moving picture. Samsung's exclusive Movie Plus completely eliminates this judder, presenting smooth action, no matter how fast it is going.
3 HDMI
Three High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) connections make your TV a multimedia centrepiece. Connect HD digital devices like disc players, game consoles, satellite dish boxes into the 2 rear connections and use the side-mounted input for cameras, camcorders and laptops. HDMI is the best performing interface for displaying an HD source on a HDTV. (23", 26" Models have 2 HDMI).
Game Mode
Samsung LCD TVs offer unparalleled picture quality that can be optimised for gaming at the touch of a button. It allows for H-sharpness and a faster response time in the games. In addition, its powerful surround sound effects produce a magical environ-ment of wonder that is filled with excitement and joy.
Fast Response Time
Exceptionally quick and sharp, with speed of up to 6ms (millisecond), users will be able to see the remarkable difference in the response time of Samsung LCD TVs. The LCD TV ensur-es that each image is just as good as the real thing.
Swivel Stand
The LCD TV's ingenious swivel stand affords consumers the ultimate flexibility in positioning the TV in their house. It allows for mobility and ergonomic comfort in your house.

46" Widescreen 1080P Full HD LCD TV
I've just purchased one of these TVs'. Once connected up to my SKY HD box viewing any of the HD channels the picture quality is awesome. I also have a DSM 330 HD media streamer, once again the picture is awesome in HD mode a full 1080P. Black is black etc with no ghosting. Another good feature is the ability to name your HDMI (3 of) and scart inputs (2 of). HDMI 1 = DVD HDMI 2 = satellite etc. lots of features come with this TV as standard and its easy to set-up. Sounds is also good although I don't use the internal sound as I use and external amp.
The only minor criticism of the TV I could possibly make is because of the high gloss surface you get quite a lot of reflection from the surround fascia and the screen itself.
That said however I've still given the TV a 5 out of 5 because the criticism is surpassed by the picture quality and additional features.
Great value and high quality for a 46"
I originally searched for a 40" screen but found that this 46" model on Amazon was £300 cheaper compared to the high street stores. I had heard much negative criticism about the HDNL delivery service but sure enough Amazons estimated delivery date was spot on (it took 3 working days).
Not many negative points to raise, the dust does show quickly on the black gloss veneer but a regular wipe will of course solve this. To get the best out of this TV then a HD subscription is needed. I viewed the intergrated Freeview for the first 3 days and was quite happy with the quality of picture. Since then i have had Sky Plus installed and the picture has improved again. I can only imagine how crisp a HD picture would look.
I also started off with a Philips DVD recorder connected via scart, again i was quite happy with the picture quality for DVD's. I then purchased a Philips upscalling DVD player and a HDMI lead. Being honest there isnt much improvement in viewing, this may be something to do with the TV being 1080p and the DVD player upscalling to 1080i.
The 20 degree swivel has come in very useful, espeically when needing access to the cables. The 15000:1 contrast really makes a difference, the blacks are so black its hard to tell its a TV picture.
By chance i also managed to link up my Apple iBook so now a 12" screen is being displayed on a 46" - this gives things like internet browsing a whole new dimension.
All in all i am very happy with this Samsung product, the addition of Sky + had a big part to play but the TV itself has many plus points. Sports and movies make brilliant viewing.
Fantastic HD Quality
Great TV
Plus points:
Picture quality is stunning in HD and on the decent quality channels such as BBC etc.
Thoroughly recommend a PS3 with this so you can watch Blu Ray and get the best out of it as it is awesome. Planet Earth on Blu Ray on this TV is something else, truely stunning.
Design is as always with Samsung, you either love it or hate it with the glass black finish. Personally, I have always been a huge Sony fan but this design beats theirs hands down.
Negatives:
Sound is very weak when purely out of the TV but I have a Sony DAV surround sound system and they work perfectly so it doesn't bother me, but it is a typical problem of LCD/plasma tvs.
The remote control is very slow to move between the different inputs, such as Scart, HDMI1, HDMI2 etc. Tiny niggle but it does frustrate.
Overall, delighted with the TV and would recommend to friends and family alike.
Excellent HDTV Choice
Well, I bought this television on Saturday and I must say how impressed I am with its overall high standard. A Smart, black and shiney veneer of quality perfectly compliments the crisp 1080p full high definition veiewing experience.
My playstation 3 connected with a good quality monster hdmi cable looks amazing. Especially with the complimentary Blue Ray Casino Royale DVD. Bog Standard 480p Sky tv looks as good as its going to get on a 46inch LCD. No shadowing, motion blurr or dead pixels so far.
I can honestly say, if you are Uming and Areing over buying a television (as i did) you wont be disapointed with this one.
+ Points
Stylish, Quality look.
Big 1080p Full High definition Screen
3 HDMI Slots
Future Proof Resolution and connectivity.
Comes with a screen clean cloth
- Points
The screen gives off some heat if its in a small room. But saves on electricity due to lower gas bills.
The Black finish gets slightly dusty after a week or two.
if you've got £1300 to spend. I would recommend it.
Good choice for HD
I bought this following reviews of some of the smaller models, but as my wall was big enough I opted for the 46" - and we were not disappointed.
SKY
At first sky appeared very bright and the colours unbalanced. Looking on some AV forums and 10 mins playing around in the menu and this was all sorted.
Sky HD is arriving in a few days and I can't wait!
DVD
An upscaling DVD came with my package - 1080i upscaling looks fantastic. HDMI hook up delivers HQ picture, but I send the audi feed to an amp via component. The first thing I did was to turn off the audio amp on the TV!
X BOX 360
I conected via composite 1080p. WOW. Nuff said.
Would have been 5*, but for the speakers and the fiddling in the menus to get the perfect picture. Worth it though.
Wall Mount.
Went to ARGOS and bought a generic wall mount for 40"+ TVs for £70(ish) and it works a treat. - Tilting the TV down a few degrees.
Looks:
Her indoors says it looks shiny!...and pretty!
