5 Stars Unbelievable
I purchased this TV with a Panasonic DMP-BD60 player. The picture quality is unbelievable. I purchased it instead of a plasma TV like the Panasonic TC-P50G10 due to inherent issues with plasma technology. Although plasma TVs offer outstanding quality and larger screen size for the same price, they have altitude issues above 5500ft and are delicate to transport. For my needs, this Samsung TV offers the best all around quality, robustness, and value. Coupled with the DMP-BD60 player, I also get the Viera functionality. I plan to get a Harmony remote to control the setup after purchasing a 7.1 receiver in the future.

This TV is totally awesome.

5 Stars 2 thumbs up!
I know a lot of you are looking at a lot of hdtvs. Let me tell I looked at all the t.vs in best buy to see how they look. I saw the ln46b650 as it stood out from the rest with clarity. So i decided to take a gamble and pre order this one. I even owned a pn50a760 plasma and sent it back because it had poor clearity. This t.v has an extra setting for the upscaling which makes it ajust to the size making it a little clearer for normal dvds then the regular upscaling.

PROs for this t.v: Clearest picture i’ve seen so far for LCD. No artifacts on 240hz settings. The colors are bright and stunning. For you video game addicts. I have a ps3 and a xbox360 hooked up to it and let me tell you the game looks crisp and has no lag whats so ever.

Cons:The internet capabilities and media stuff arent exciting. Only thing its good for is maybe knowing the weather and uploading pictures on the tv when having family events. When people speak while playing video games they seem a little quiet other then that they sound pretty decent. The blacks are probally the best you can get for lcd but its still not as black as plasmas can get. Only other thing is its viewing angles, its best to sit at a centerish seat.

THe cons are very very minor overall this t.v I will recommend to anyone looking for something great in all area’s for the price. Regular Dvds look nice a sharp and blue rays look even better. Even my girlfriend that knows nothing about t.vs says WOW thats a lot better then the other one we sent back. YOu could also see the jealousy in my friends eyes.

I hope my technical comments help you decide if this is the t.v for you.

5 Stars Samsung LN46B750 Review
I am simply “speechless” regarding the Picture Quality with just a few adjustments out of the box!! This Samsung set is simply gorgeous with it’s glossy wet black piano like finish, not to mention how good it looks even when turned off! This set has many real world usable features in store for you, plus a ton of options for customizing the picture to suit your preferences.

You can also tailor the way your set handles the AMP or Auto Motion Plus 240Hz, from ultra smooth while watching sports with 0 motion blurr to a more realistic film like smoothness. This is the first LCD HDTV that I have seen to actually have whiter whites and blacker blacks, until now only plasmas were capable of dark jet blacks and whiter whites!

This Samsung LCD HDTV is more like a computer, instead of a paper manual it comes with a USB 2.0 flash drive (E-Manual) where you just plug it in and you can just scan the manual on your beautiful 46″ inch screen. You can also update the firmware version at anytime in the future for added features, bug fixes and maybe even hardware compatibility issues.

The sound I thought was pretty good for a flat panel, the remote is the icing on the cake. The remote is 100% backlit and has a nice glossy finish that fits well in hand. I did a lot of research on just about every HDTV on the market for a whole month and this set has the better picture quality of all the others out there, if you buy this set you won’t be disapointed one bit!

Samsung has come a long way in just a short amount of time, there products a hard to beat cost and performance wise! I bought this set from Amazon on Friday and was delivered the following Wednesday, I don’t know how Amazon managed that one quick shipment! A big thanks to the shipping company Pilot for their excellent friendly and help for getting it all set-up for me, the whole experience was joyful!

4 Stars Great TV, bad quality control from Samsung
Let me say that this TV is one of the best in the market for the price point. The pros are too many to list and so far has been a great choice as far as features and performance. I’m an early adapter for HDTV in 03 going from a Zenith C32V37 RP CRT (4:3); which unfortunately is getting replaced due to a humming power supply. The B750 can match the black levels of the RP CRT and has no clouding or flashlighting that I was seeing on the A750/A850 sets, which my wife and I almost decided to get. With Amazon’s pricepoints coming very close to the discounted price of the previous generation Samsung sets it was a no brainer.

Now onto the Cons, I would have given this B750 5 stars if not for the crappy Samsung Quality Control. I received my TV out-of-the-box with a remote that had 5 dead/non-working buttons= mute, up arrow, play, red options button and “1″. Also, after 2 days of setting up the TV and getting all our inputs connected using almost all of them (analog & digital); yes even both USB ports, the HDMI inputs 1-3 stopped working properly. Now, those inputs will only take the signal from the HDMI 4. EG: If I select HDMI 1-3 and have a source such as Bluray running on the HDMI 4 (side-port) it will display that source signal. Talk about disappointing QC. After a few calls to Amazon and Samsung; I will be getting a new remote and have Samsung’s local service technician out to fix the HDMI input problem. I can’t believe these QC issues out-of-the-box are occuring for such as middle-tier to higher end line of prodcut; very poor testing on Samsung’s part.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the performance of the B750 but very disappointed with their QC process which can be greatly improved. In my 20-30+ years of owning electronic equipment I have never encountered these types of QC problems out-of-the box with any products.

4 Stars wonderful tv, just don’t spread out too much
Bought this baby this week and it’s worked very well right out of the box. They must have tuned up the colorization lately, because we aren’t tempted to adjust the factory settings, so far.

Motion is superb, no hazy transitions on fast moving stuff, we bought it for the 240hz refresh and it delivers as promised.

Looks good for being such a hunk o electronics, and love the swivel feature, which brings me to my one cautionary note: these things do not look as sharp and contrasty when you view them from a radius outside center of about 10-15 degrees on either side (that’s about 20-30 degrees total). But that’s an LCD issue for all of them, and we like the rest of the package so much that we’re happy we got the 240hz Sammy instead of a plasma or 60 or 120hz LCD. Oh yeah, and that pedestal was a pain to get properly screwed into the panel.

Nice job overall, Samsung!
