Excellent HDTV

This is a very good tv. My only real complaint is the hdmi connections are in a bad spot and should be facing back or down and not to the side. If you move the tv to clean or anything else or just move the hdmi wires from say the DVR box you could damage the connector built into the tv.
Excellent image quality (standard and 3D). Easy network connect. Online apps are great.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color

Possibly a 10 year TV

Amazing crisp picture, even, and especially, Internet and PC video is super sharp. All-Share is a little bit slow displaying photo slide show, and that is probably more wireless signal dependent than anything else. Setting up All-Share and Media share is pretty much automatic. The Internet interface is not so intuitive, and a little bit confusing. - I wish there were an audio out to feed back to home theater amp, for those of us who have not upgraded our amps to HDMI yet. Overall - probably won't expect to buy another family room TV for many years to come.
I have been using this TV with my PS3 mostly for Blu-Rays and some games and the picture is stunning. I have the 2010 model and on 2011 they updated the virtual store layout in 2011. I think they should release firmware update to match so that we can purchase more and feel like we got more for our money since the 2010 models were pricier than the 2011 models. Besides that I have no complaints. Great TV overall despite the updates I wish I could have.
Cons: kinda pricey - especially early on, apps purchases are hard to guide through (2010)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Packs a Punch

Great TV, cutting edge when it came out. Never been dispointed with this product. 3D is very sharp and easy to use. Lots of built in features and apps. Utlra sharp picture and smooth motion. Precision local dimming offers a much better picture than even the 9000 series.
Few down sites, though everything has them. Unit is not compatible with newer bluetooth glasses (could be fixed if samsung would sell a USB bluetooth transmitter for the TV line). Only other complain is using Apps has too many steps to get to and can be slow loading and navigating but once you are in an app it works flawlessly. Newer 55D8000 does not appear to have these issues.
