In the market for a new big screen TV, anyone have any experience with the new LED Samsung TV’s? Currently looking at the 55" (Model UN55B7000) at only 1.2" thick and 49lbs.
Let me know…thanks.
The DLP’s are nice to 61" (HL61A750) and 67" (HL67A750)
LED monitors looks stellar … i assume the TV will be very nice as well, I am definitely looking to get one of these as soon as my LCD shits the bed (which will be soon)
Where did you find that ad?
The wording on it is fucking terrible.
“But a work of art.”
“Only this model is made with a hint of amber.”
Not the kind of thing you expect to see in an ad from an international corporation. Unless that’s some JDM ad…
i actually just went to look at them, not worth the $ in my eyes. The color is great and the darks are better but everything just looks like its animated. Drove me nuts.
Ill be getting one of these instead http://ces.cnet.com/8301-19167_1-10137077-100.html
The contrast ratio is pretty sick on the new LED’s. The 8000 series are 240hz…They are incredibley thin. If you decide to get one buy it online. Best Buy has the UN55B6000 for like $3799 which is way overpriced. I would wait a year… prices on these should drop drastically soon. If not you can pick up a 850 or even 950 for cheap.
Im happy with my Samsung 52A750… not as thin but the picture is great.
The ad was taken right from Samsung’s website that I linked above, an NYspeeder probably wrote it…
Has anyone viewed this next to a Samsung LCD? (LN52A650, 750 or 850)
Pro/Cons?
I believe both rubicant and nikuk have LED tvs
I just bought an LN46A860. It’s the thinner of the non-LED panels. The picture on the 650, 750 and 850/60 are all the same. The 650 doesn’t have DNLA/internet capabilities. The 750 does. The 850 has the internet capabilities and is also thinner (only difference)
I was doing research on both and even though the LED panels are a better picture quality and a little thinner, I could not find the reason for paying $1200 extra! I LOVE my 860, the picture is awesome and I smile thinking “I’m glad I didn’t spend that extra grand…”
The 860 is the same as the 850 but has a blue bezel instead of red ToC and it has an 18 month warranty instead of 12 month.
The LED TVs have better DLNA capabilities, but most people don’t bother. It still doesnt’ have the codec support of a directly connected dedicated PC next to the TV.
I was looking at those as well, how much did you pick up the 52A750 for? What are the major differences between the 650/750/850/950…they don’t really go that in-depth on their website.
Not completely sure but i think the main difference is the contrast ratios and HDMI inputs… the 750 and 850 are pretty much identical except the 850 is thinner. I don’t know much about the 950 or 650. I do know they make a 630 which is a cheaper alternative thats 120hz.
Check out Cnet.com for the full specs
I paid about $2200 for a 52" 750. Check www.frys.com they have good deals. With the release of the LED’s im sure you can pick up a 850/750 for a good price.
if you need a TV today, just get a nice 720p or 1080p plasma or LCD and don’t spend too much.
it’s not worth buying the best right now, wait a year or so for LED to get better and cheaper.
cliffs: the extra 2000-3000 is not worth the difference today.
thats sumsung for you… its their default color calibration, you can change it.
LEDs are nice, I think my Sony consumes like 300 watts.
Sony had a 15" LED for $2500!!! I guess the prices are coming down quick.
One look at it and its soft, square, corners is all it takes to see that this isn't just a TV you're hanging.
Wouldn’t
One look at it and its soft, square, corners are all it takes to see that this isn’t just a TV you’re hanging.
Be more correct also?
No, because “is” acts on “one look” not “corners”.
