Samsung’s Series 6 LCD TVs Get Priced For Australia

Samsung’s Series 6 line of LCD TVs, which we first saw at CES this year and have since learned they’re awesome, have been price for Australia.

The screens feature a stylish red hue that has been embedded in the TV’s frame, giving it a touch of sophistication that’s easy on the eye, if not the wallet.

There are two ranges in the Series 6 lineup – the 650 and the 610. The differences between the two aren’t massive – the 610 lineup doesn’t feature 100Hz, DNle Pro or Samsung’s 100Hz Motion Plus technology.

The full price list is below:

650 Series:

  • 32-inch – $1,999
  • 40-inch – $3,099
  • 46-inch – $3,849
  • 52-inch – $4,999

610 Series:

  • 40-inch – $2,749
  • 46-inch – $3,649
  • 52-inch – $4,499

The Series 6 LCD TVs are scheduled for release in June. And to confuse you, Samsung’s lineup of Series 6 plasmas have also been announced, although pricing hasn’t yet been set.

If anybody’s holding out for the Series 7 LCD that we saw at CES with ethernet connection, you’re looking at a September launch date.

    Why is it that the new Samsung Series 6, 46″ cost so much more here in Australian than it does in the U.S.

    Price comparison.

    U.S. –
    Discounted price at Amazon.com – $1989.77 USD (even after adding 10% to cover sales tax this still comes in at around $2335 AUD.)

    Full price $2899.99 USD ($3073.00 AUD)

    I think that Samsung Australia is taking advantage of Australian Customers given that the full price is expected to be $3849. What a joke.

    I ordered a 46″ 650 last week. $3499. Can’t wait to get it. Decided on this tele after reading reviews from the US. Sounds awesome. Will rate it when I get. And yeah, I agree why do we get ripped off on price?

  • stevo

    You should be able to get a 46″ 650 series for around $2600AUD.

    Beware of these television sales that include such things as ‘BLUE RAY” players as a freebie then find it impossible to log onto the site to organise payment to receive such freebie. CAVEAT EMPTOR. Mind you, I won’t be letting it go, I will pursue this untill I get my Blue Ray player as the deal suggested for purchasing a 40″ LCD Series 6 Samsung television.

    I just picked up the 40 inch for $2099 from a retail shop and i’m totally happy with the TV and the price. The Samsung RRP’s are over inflated, but thats par for course for electrical manufacturers.

    Adam, what was the name of the store and which state was it? Are you sure it is the series 6 LCD for $2099?

  • Armagetya

    Yeah I bought a series 6 46″ with a rogers sb 12-m sub and surround package $3000. Only had a ditsy 7.1 orchestra amp but pay peanuts expect monkeys i guess

  • rrp?

    gotta love working in a retail store, got the Series 6 lcd 40″ for $1748 (cost price+10%tax) the thing iv noticed from series 6 compared to 7 and 8 is 6 has the improved visuals when watching blueray movies like ice age, when watching it it feels as if the frames are rendered real time (as they actually are using the samsungs motion plus) XD i love this lcd tv, it compares to everything else and wins XD
