   Bought this TV and watched it for a few months.

   Plasmas still produce a better and smooth picture quality.

   I sold this and purchased a Samsung plasma. Much better!

   Don’t waste your time with LED backliit LCD. It’s simply not there yet. Give it a few years.

   Sleek, elegant, and efficient, this TV’s picture quality is only rivaled by Samsung’s new plasmas. If you’re a gamer then go with LED TVs like this. If you’re a film guru go with the plasmas.

   Picked up the UN55B7100 from Best Buy this weekend (identical to 7000 except it is Gray ToC instead of red). I love this TV. Upgraded from LNT4061F from Samsung. It is so thin its amazing the wall mount screws don’t go through the screen. At less than 50lbs without the stand it is substantially lighter than any traditional 55 inch lcd or plasma. The colors are vibrant, the blacks are solid and the picture just seems to pop. I haven’t done any calibration or adjustments so I’m thinking it only gets better from here. Hooked up to surround sound system so I can’t say anything about the speakers. Yes, it is more expensive than many similar sized tv, but I really think it’s worth it.

   We enjoyed most everything this tv has to offer, to include the slim line body style, as well as viewing films in the 3d(which take some getting used to), beautiful slow & stills.
   
   As far as sound, we had it hooked up to our bose surround sound, so I cannot confirm the sound issues.
   
   What we did have a problem with was when we watched an action film or anything which objects move across the screen quickly (& we watch alot), the pixilation issues that happen around objects as they move across the screen quickly or fast. The tv just can’t seem to keep up. It’s very annoying and never happened with our old DLP.

   Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RUOVZLCMNQU8B I payed more for the LED vs a plasma, or traditional LCD, but I’m kinda looking for slim, and as much energy conservation as I can get for a flat panel display. I’m a front projector fan, and have one for my basement theater, but this is in a very bright living room and needs to be bright. This certainly is bright enough! It’s replacing an old 32″ Hitachi CRT. That was a great TV in the day, and is now in our bedroom. Now I just have to get some decent furniture to replace the old unit that held our TV and tons of nick-nacks. It’s mounted on an articulating wall mount, and there’s just a folding table under it for now just to hold the receiver and various set top boxes, etc. All the nick nacks are in boxes for now. We need some decent shelving!

   Oh yeah, it’s about the TV, eh? Get into the expert settings and turn off the auto contrast thing. It dims the screen for dark stuff. It’s mostly noticed during movie credits, but it’s annoying. While power is off hit “Mute, 1, 8, 2, power” Scroll to “Advanced” then type “0000″ and scroll to the dimming thing. There are many other things to scroll thru and play with, but I didn’t have the guts to mess w/ that. I bet there are some cool features tho! I turned off the Motion Plus stuff after reading many tech reviews that say it’s just not worth it.
