Customer Reviews


Love this TV!
I saw this TV in a store and was blown away by the picture quality. The price was too high so I didn't buy it. I checked on Amazon and saw the price was almost 0 cheaper so I bought it here. We have not had any issues at all with the TV (had it since April 24th) and the guys that brought it into the house were great. They set it all up and took away all of the boxes.

ETA: I have not had any color/light bleeding..the picture is amazing!


Awesome!
I've had this TV for about 3 weeks now and all I can say is - Awesome!
Samsung must have fixed the issues some people mention because I do not see any bleeding light. I did a firmware update when I got the TV.

I bought an HD calibration DVD to set the picture and after I did that the picture is incredible. The default settings will kill your eyes.

The 3d movies look great and are fun to watch. I have played a few games on the PS3 in 3d and those look good and seeing the depth in games is actually great, I imagine Gran Turismo 5 and Killzone 3 in 3d will be insane!

The TVs internet connectivity is really cool too, I stream netflix directly from the TV. I can also connect any Hard drive to the TV (or use a wifi media center) to play all my media -- really nice feature.

If your looking for a TV and can get the bundle set from Amazon with the blue-ray player, 2 glasses, a movie AND free shipping --- get it!

No regrets with this TV at all


Best 3D TV
Sorry, I did not buy this TV from Amazon, could not wait after seeing various demos. What can I say about the TV, best purchase ever made, was able to hook it up in less then 5 minutes. Has lots of additional features, my favorites are the Internet related, specifically, Netflix, been playing lots of movies using wi-fi dongle, no problem what so ever, no drops, lagging, delay nothing. Picture quality is awesome, I could watch hi-def programming all day along. All share (DLNA) option is great, multi tasking is not available, i.e. can not view pictures and listen to music on the remote PC same time, hope I am right on this one. It would have been nice if you could hear music in the background while viewing pictures etc.. Agree with some of the other customers thou, on the remote control you can not feel the keys, it's pretty uniform, you actually, have to look at keys when pressing but, it's kinda cool remote, looks pretty sexy, reminded me of some of the Apple products. Allover, if I were to buy a TV again, Samsung would be first choice, thank you Samsung for makaing a great TV. It's winner.


This set ROCKS!
I bought this almost as soon as it was available (ok, I waited a couple of weeks after it was released until the first package deal with glasses, 3-D DVD Player, and the stupid Monsters 3d movie), wanted to use it a while a while before I published a review.

I've had it about 4 months now, so it's time.

This television ROCKS!!! The picture is amazing, *everybody* who sees it is instantly jealous. Then I tell the to look from the side, and they are again blown away...it's 1" thick! I mounted it on a power-tilt wall mount...as soon as it comes on, it tilts down form the wall, and back up when I turn it off. They sell the mounts on Amazon, but I was in too much a hurry and got it from a local big-box store (for more $). Definitely a great accessory for this set, and at 50 lbs you can use mounts meant for smaller sets (as long as the VESA is right).

There are a bunch of apps (which seem to want to "update" precisely when I try to show off this feature to my friends...not a great selling point, but if I used the apps more often it wouldn't happen exactly when I was trying to show off!), that are neat and some are quite useful. It was easy to match my set to the different services. ***Computer required to look up website and enter your tv's unique number before using app***. Netflix streaming rental app is really nice (although the movies for streaming aren't the newest ones) and I ditched my Blockbuster mail-in service immediately after realizing their app only *sells* movies, no rentals, and the Netflix combo mail and streaming was cheaper anyhow. The YouTube app is great, have watched lots of those in full screen mode. Weather, traffic, and other stuff too. I tend to just watch TV on the set most of the time.

I bought the 3-D DVD player, too, which seems to have the same apps...so there's too much redundancy for my taste there. Also, as soon as I turn on the DVD player, it takes over the TV immediately...that blows, sometimes I want to give the DVD a chance to warm up and get staged while I'm watching the end of something else. No *real* problem, just grab the remote and switch inputs again...but annoying for sure.

The sound leaves something to be desired...but what can you expect from a 1" thick television??? I feed the output to a Samsung soundbar with wireless subwoofer and all is well!

Controls are pretty intuitive, all made sense. The remote is really neat and shiny silver, and there are strange (color a/b/c/d) buttons I have no idea what they do...but I could look it up if I wanted. They may be macros or something. The DVD player's remote is similar, and can control some of the TV functionality, too...which I like.

3D is...well...there, and still under development by broadcasters. I haven't done much with that, as there's not that much to do. I didn't realize some World Cup games were broadcast in 3D, or I would have tried to stand that horrible buzzing sound form those obnoxious horns to see how it looked. "Converting" regular signals to 3-D seems silly, but every now and then you can see an effect. A basketball game did look 3D-ish, for sure. The glasses are a bit less comfortable than I'd like, so I prefer to watch in 2D without them on. As channels are added with 3D, I may change my mind. The "kids" (adult kids) like messing with that stuff.

There is something about the picture...it's so High Def, so "real", that for a while everything looked like a soap opera. It's hard to describe what I'm trying to say. Everything seemed to have that "soap opera feel" to it, some stuff was kind of uncomfortable to watch for some reason. We got over it, I guess, because we don't notice it anymore...but visitors mention how "real" things look and I think they are noticing the same thing we used to see.

Very happy with decision to buy this from Amazon. Unit arrived exactly when it was supposed, to. The delivery guys called in advance, and were very polite. If I wasn't going to wall-mount it, they would have taken it out of the box and set it up for me. I bought the 4 year Square Trade warranty from Amazon, too...repairing this thing only once would have to cost WAY more than the price of the warranty!

Very satisfied, very happy customer.


SAMSUNG TV
THE TV IS AWESOME! YOU DO NEED TO HOOK UP A SURROUND SOUND SYSTEM TO GET THE QUALITY OF SOUND.
