Summary: Samy 8000 2010-03-10
Comment: Amazing picture, contrast level fantastic. Upscaling of non HD pictures really good. Neg is dark segments loose detail, hard to see. Read about this in professional reviews. Is a little bothersome. All in all, this set is a fantastic value. 240HZ motion flow at times creates near 3d effects. This is bad resulting in an unnatural picture. In older content, 240hz can create a very odd, almost old soap opera find of old video look. Very odd. Simple solution is to just turn off 240 hz. Picture then is fine.

Summary: Outstanding Value vs Full Array LED 2010-03-10
Comment: Overall incredile value and excellent picture. BlueRay movie's so sharp a non-audio/videophile described it as almost 3D. If like many, you're on the fence like I was on full array vs.edge lit LED's, don't wait. This TV's awesome. I immediately did the firmware updagrade. The concerns expressed in some reviews of seeing lighter areas near corners is one of those things you have to really look for & decreased significantly after the firmware upgrade-as best I can tell. It's so slight that I'd certainly not pay $600-$800 more for full array. Internet widgets are cool, being able to quickly review news/sports/eBay account is also very cool. I was a loyal Sony fan & am now definitely a Samsung TV fan; as I'd have had to pay nearly $1K more for these features in a Sony.

Summary: Bad lighting and weird lines 2010-03-10
Comment: I just received the TV today and it is already having issues. It has intermittent lines across the TV and the back light is uneven. I heard a lot of good things about Samsung, but the UN55B8000 is pretty bad.

Summary: Definately the MOST stunning picture I've EVER seen on a TV... 2010-03-09
Comment: It likely goes without saying that 240mHz makes a big difference. However, when I had my HD service installed by Comcast on this TV, even the technician said, "WOW, that picture is unreal! Is this a 240? It's like the people are walking around in 3D." I couldn't agree more! It's simply the most amazing television I've ever owned.

So, beyond my "shock and awe" I've owned a 50" Panasonic Plasma and a 37" LCD. Those two PALE in comparison! Even using a Bluray player on my 50" plasma (also in 1080p)the picture is EVEN BETTER! I didn't even realize it was possible!

My one caution for this setup, you better like HD reality. Many shows in HD or movies on Bluray look so real, you literally feel like you're there. I watched an episode of House last night and thought the clarity and film work was so drastically different that it almost look more like filming of a soap opera. It's taking some getting used to that's for sure!

I can't wait to try the Amazon On-Demand HD movies!!

Summary: question 2010-03-09
Comment: Could somebody help me, which LED HDTV is better the Samsung UN55B8000 55-Inch 1080p 240 Hz LED HDTV or the new Samsung UN55C7000 55-Inch 1080p 240 Hz 3D LED HDTV?
I would like to buy one of them and I'm not sure if I should spend more money for the 3D LED UN55C7000...
Thanks for your help
