Best Compatible D Series Samsung TVs for SamyGO

Best SamyGO compatible TVs are from B series but it's harder to find them, you can choose from C series also but if you wanted to buy a TV that is 2011 modal and want to have from D series that you needed to buy from LED 6 or 7 series. Since we don't published a D series hacks yet, there is no best compatible one yet.

From current experience, it's better to have TV which has "T-GAPDEUC" or compatible firmwares and that equals to 7 series... That firmware is main D series platform as I understand from name of firmware and probably it will be best compatible one of D series for our hacks.

I don't write down PLASMA series, because of consuming much more power and they also thicker(?) than LED one. LED TV will pay the price difference by your lower electric bills... Also AFAIK LEDs has longer life than plasma... I looked some plasma specs and max power rating x2 of LED one. Also 6 Series plasmas they don't use ARM based CPU but MStar...

And about LCD, Samsung doesn't produce LCD TV on D series.

Until now, (for B and C series,) 6,7 and 8 series firmwares are same.But on D series, Samsung changes its mind and they are using different firmware on 6, 7 and 8 series... Personally, it looks like 6000 series has best price/performance but I have questions about them on my mind. They have GAP6DEUC firmwares. On D7000 series you have some advantages like "micro dimming" (higher power save, better blacks) and 2D to 3D conversion feature but price is significantly higher than 6 series. Also 7 series has almost all features. From software point, it looks like GAPDEUC (7 series) the best compatible to but 6 series are most improvable... If I were you I buy from 6 series. I think it's not worth for %50 price difference... But if you want more gadgets / luxury TV, than could choose TV from D7000.

For Americans, you could choose UNxxD6000 LED or UNxxD7000 LED TVs. Both of them have 3D capability of course.

For Europeans, you needed to choose UExxD6100 LED or UExxD7000 LED TVs.

For Australia/Asia, you could select UAxxD6000 LED or UAxxD7000 LED TVs.
