SAMSUNG’S SERIES 7 PLASMA HDTV COMBINES OUTSTANDING PICTURE
QUALITY WITH UNPARALLELED ACCESS TO DIGITAL MEDIA

The Latest in HD Technology and an Innovative and Elegant New Design Mark This Premium Line

LAS VEGAS, January 6, 2008 – Samsung Electronics, the market leader in digital
television innovation, is set to debut the Series 7 plasma HDTV line-up. The elegant new
design born from Samsung’s expertise in design and R&D brings a never-before-seen
“Touch of Color” to consumers’ living room. Engineered to deliver pictures so crisp and
clear, viewers feel they are part of the onscreen action. In addition, access to digital media
has been expanded, while navigation has been simplified, making the Series 7 the
premium choice for discerning consumers. Samsung’s plasma lineup will be on display at
Booth #11033 during the International Consumer Electronics Show held at the Las Vegas
Convention Center, January 7 through 10.

“With the Series 7 plasma, Samsung brings together superior picture quality and gorgeous
design to realize the best HDTV for any living room environment” said Jonas Tanenbaum,
vice president of Flat Panel Marketing at Samsung Electronics America. “We’re integrating
Ultra FilterBright™ anti-glare technology – which generates a rich, clear, and colorful
picture even in bright rooms.”

The Series 7 plasma HDTV owes its stellar picture quality to a new software algorithm,
which reduces false image contours and enhances moving picture quality. Recognizing
that more and more consumers use their HDTV sets as the cornerstone of their home
multimedia entertainment centers, the Series 7 enhances its connectivity to provide a new
multimedia experience. Consumers can now input, access, and manage more HD devices

than ever directly through the set’s four HDMI 1.3 inputs. Using the side-mounted USB 2.0
port, consumers can play music and photo files for enjoyment through the HDTV. Access
to RSS feeds provides users the most recent news, stock price and weather information.

Just as important as its digital technology is the Series 7’s elegant new TOC design
(Touch Of Color) which makes it as decorative as it is practical. Inspired by modern looks
from the automotive and fashion industries, Samsung’s new molding technology creates a
clean, smooth finish that is infused with a hint of color during the manufacturing process.

The Series 7 Plasma HDTV will be available in April of 2008 in the following sizes: 50-
inches, 58-inches and 63-inches (Model numbers PN50A750T, PN58A750T and
PN63A750T).
