Samsung UN50EH6000 50-Inch 1080p 120Hz Deal

Andrew Beasley (Vienna, VA USA) : I love this TV!!! The picture is very clear and nice. Also, the whole complaint about the default setting making everything look to soap opera like is true but it only looks that way because it makes every person or channel look as if the action is happening right in front of you in real life. Even old movies look good on this TV. So, yes you can change the defaults to look more tv like but then what's the point of buying an HDTV when you want the picture to look like an old style tv. The whole point of HD is to have everything look as real as possible and this TV delivers that greatly. If you have no interest in 3D tv then this is the tv for you even if you want a 3D tv all you would have to buy is a 3DFury adapter and it can make this or any other TV a 3D TV in seconds for an extra couple of hundred bucks. So, if you do that, you'd have a $6k Samsung TV for this TV's price. Basically, the best TV choice you could make is this TV.

Suzanne Hurrle: Like all recent Samsung LCD TVs, this is capable of producing a really fantastically lovely image once its settings are adjusted, but the settings it comes with from the factory are just terrible. The first thing to do is to turn off, or use the Custom setting to turn way down, the motion-smoothing effects, which otherwise ruin the depth and look of every camera pan or track. Next, adjust the backlight all the way up, and change color, contrast, and brightness to taste. I found I needed to reduce the contrast and brightness significantly below the maximum, while using the black-level controls as well, to get a less artificially "poppy" image than the unit's default settings.

Anonymous (USA): We ordered this TV after asking a lot questions at local stores and reading many, many reviews. We really wanted JUST a TV, no Smart Technology. When we received the TV, it has been shipped in just the regular box. The back of the box had been damaged and the bottom portion of the TV had a big dent. I filled out the exchange information online and within a few hours we received an email from Amazon that they had shipped another TV overnight and sent a call tag for the pick up of the damaged one.
