| 68 of 76 people found the following review helpful  Amazing TV, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Samsung UN65C8000 65-Inch 1080p 240 Hz LED 3D HDTV (Electronics) I have had this TV for two weeks now. Woohoo, I'm glad I waited!A little background... in October 2010 Amazon had this television at a substantial discount (<$4,000). At that price, I got a tremendous TV. I'm not sure I'd be so inclined to give it 5 stars if I paid substantially more for it. At the end of the day, you can get a 63" Samsung 3D Plasma for <$3,000. You pay a couple bucks more a year in energy costs to run the plasma and have to worry about burn-in in the first 100 hours or so, but you arguably get similar or even better picture quality for less money. More background... I'm inclined toward LCDs and specifically Samsung LCDs. I've always been scared off by potential burn-in issues on Plasmas. I've also tried Sharp and Sony LCDs briefly and never got the same brightness or saturation out of them. I own the...

I have an old Sharp LC65D93U that I set up side by side for evaluation purposes. I also have a Panasonic VT25 unit that I used for comparison.A major benefit of LCD over PLASMA has always been the lack of reflections arising from incident lighting. This is my biggest beef with the Samsung, it is no better than PLASMA in this regard. The reflections on this screen are severe. The off angle viewing has improved from older LCD generations, but it is still poor. With a careful eye even at normal viewing distances on the large 65 inch screen, you can see these effects as you sway side to side. Defects: This is my second UN65C8000, the first had extremely bad "flash lighting" effects right out of the box. The replacement had very little. There exists on my set a small amount of spot lighting on the bottom mid-section of the screen which only becomes noticeable when watching in a...

I purchased a Samsung Blu-ray DVD and the expensive Samsung glasses. The movie they ship with the unit was used as well and the 3D quality just wasn't there. I was sorely disappointed with the blurred 3D image, almost as if you had not activated the glasses. After service replaced the main board as well as the 'T-Con' board multiple times, they determined that the unit 'appears to work as intended' even though they agreed the blurred image was not right. I unfortunately had purchased Samsung's UN55C8000 and their UN40C7000 3D TV's as well. All have the exact same issue. Even more disappointing than the 3D picture quality was Samsung's "Executive Support Team" which determined that "we're sorry, but the unit appears to be working as designed and there's nothing we can do for you."For my money, I'd strongly suggest looking at other brands to determine if anyone has truly nailed 3D yet. |
