Samsung TVs with less energy efficiency in real life than in testing
Samsung brand TVs appear to be less energy efficient in real life when compared to the tests. Independent tests suggest that some Samsung handsets in Europe can fool energy efficiency tests.
Some TVs South Korean brand Samsung use less energy in the tests than in life real, reports the Guardian on Thursday, October 1st. The European Commission has said it would investigate these allegations of forgery in the tests and said it will tighten legislation on energy efficiency.
These claims suggest that Samsung falsified test efficiency. The European Commission will investigate and ban “defeat devices” in televisions and other products after several European countries have detected such problems.
The difference between the registered energy efficiency in testing and in real life resembles If the car scandal in the Volkswagen group, in which the German company took that used devices that distorted the greenhouse gas emission tests in 11 million cars, albeit with less serious proportions.
The Samsung denies these charges and ensures that the system of “lighting motion” embedded in some TVs can automatically reduce screen brightness at all times and not only during testing.
“There is no comparison [between the system" motion lighting "Samsung and fraudulent device VW],” said a spokesman from Samsung. “This is not a definition that is only active during the tests. Rather, it is a definition taken to reduce glare.”
