 Picture is crisp and crispier. Excuse me while I pick up my eyeballs off the floor. |

| The Good:
*Vibrant colors--of which ancient, grunting, CRT-watching man could only dream. *HD content is displayed so realistically I'll quit my job and live under a bridge to watch TV all day. *Even standard-def shows look quite good on this set, like super models only five or ten years past their prime. *Black levels are significantly deeper than I would have expected based on all the online whinging about edge-lit LED screens (e.g., "Give me local dimming, or give me death!"). *Supa-thin profile makes the compact fluorescent "flat" panels look McDonald's chubby. The Tolerable: *Crowded buttons on the remote, which I hardly use in favor of the cable company's universal (or maybe no more than planetary) remote. I'll only pick up the Samsung remote on occasion to adjust advanced settings, but when I do, I often push an unintended button. *Very slight edge-lit brightness on black borders. Much of what's on TV will fill the screen, so you won't even have the opportunity to notice the effect. Really, it's not that bad--I've seen far worse light leakage while watching movies on my 2007 alum iMac. The Tolerated: *There's only one thing that bugs me a bit, and it's not a deal breaker. (Besides, I already bought the TV, so the deal has been, well. . . concluded, if you must.) When the screen is mostly black and only a small graphic is displayed somewhere, the LEDs go a bit dim--you can actually see, over a fraction of a second, the light levels drop. I'm assuming that the TV was set up this way so that the LEDs wouldn't be leaking ghostly light on a largely black screen. I've fussed with the settings, but I can't make this effect go away. I haven't yet fully explored all the setting menus, so I just might hit pay dirt soon, or maybe Samsung will nix that effect with a firmware update. At any rate, whatever text is dimmed is still very legible, and when the next screen-filling scene pops up, the LEDs power up without any detectable delay so that thereafter the screen's as bright as it should be. No biggie--it's not enough of a problem for me to scratch a star off the rating. The Tweakable: *Turning off motion smoothing is not difficult under most circumstances; indeed, some content begs to be smooved, e.g., sports and competitive cooking shows. But when I first plugged in a movie via the USB drive, I got motion smooving by default and wanted none of it. Whenever I pushed the remote's "Menu" button, I ended on a screen far, far away from the USB drive's content, and ended up adjusting the picture settings for the cable feed and not the target movie on the USB drive. I was bedeviled awhile, but a bit of snooping around the owner's manual led to this minor discovery: by pressing the "Tools" button on the Samsung remote, I could enter a submenu that let me turn off the smooving effect without leaving the movie. Cheap soap opera video effect, begone! Conclusion: The picture is what matters most, and this TV's output makes my jaw drop to the floor. Which is rather fortuitous, because I need something down there to catch my eyeballs. |

| Amazing picture. Sound not so great as tiny speakers aim down from the bottom ridge of tv. I cant believe how thin the television is and how bright the picture is. It plays most everything I've thrown at it in perfect color and very little pixelation. No warm up time like Standard LED TVs and much easier to watch. I highly recommend this TV. If you're going to buy an LCD television...make sure it is backlit with LEDs. Samsungs out-perform all the other brands. |
| Great picture, intuitive programming, good for gaming |

| We purchased the TV from Amazon. A few years ago I would never have ordered something this expensive and fragile from a mail order but after years of buying from Amazon I've come to believe there is nothing they can't sell online well. The first of our TVs did come damaged, but guess what- not only didn't Amazon wait to receive the return before shipping out a replacement, there had been a price drop since I ordered the TV and they gave me a refund for the difference! Now that is good service.
The second time the TV arrived pristine and the only assembly required is the stand and inserting the cables. The stand is very nice too. We have been very happy with the bright crisp picture, we play alot of XBox 360 first person shooters which require a fast refresh rate and this TV does very well especially in game mode. We watch SD TV, DVDs through the XBox360 and instantly stream movies from netflix all of which look good on the TV. The menu and programming is very intuitive. |
| Not bad, Samsung |

| I bought this TV because it was about 200 dollars cheaper on here that it was at Sams Club. I bought this with the free shipping from Amazon and it came actually just as fast as regular shipping. Sharp image, and it seems to make my plain DVD player(not blu-ray or up-converting DVD, just the old ones) seem better. Its got some engine that smooths out the picture. The TV is super thin too. Its definitely worth the price in my opinion.
But the built-in-speaker kinda sucks in default mode. So you gonna have to go into sound options and adjust the equalizer and the sound mode to get a really good sound from the TV without a home theater.After that man its pretty good. Gots alot of HDMI ports.You can plug up almost anything to it to. Its got a lot of different connections. |
| This TV has a great great picture, it makes my eyes bleed how great it is.... |

This TV has a great great picture, sound is ok - use a surround system to enjoy this properly, it has alot of tweaking capabilties, it is very thin and light weight LED TV, I was really upset it didn't have the internet feature but it made me happy knowing I can stream my MP4 Ipod movies to the TV from my computer, cable TV looks great, overall it is a major improvement over the un46b650 series but I have one issue with this unit, Issue 1: soft white spots (bleeding) around the tv when watching dark scenes (I see it is a common problem with Samsung TV's)- this happens when you configure the TV Gamma higher than (0), brightness above (47), and ESPECIALLY the Shadow Detail above (-2) (this is what controls darkness of the TV but any type (credits) or space scenes (with stars will fade alot) will look very dark at (-2) setting - I leave it at (0) setting but thats when the spots accur - I guess I can live with that). I do have to say that I watch my TV in bright setting environment, not in a darkroom, I can safely say that if you're going to watch it a a dark room (theater) then you will hardly notice the white spots since everything will mostly be at half contrast and brightness. I say the TV overall is great for the price and I think Samsung can maybe fix with a quick Firmware upgrade, but I would have given it a 95 rating but I will give it a 85 instead... I hope Samsung comes out with a firmware soon....... I will review again when they do release the firmware upgrade..... |
| I LOVE THIS TV!!! |

| Amazing picture. LEDs are doing their job with the backlight... There are few complain about the sound - I don't agree.
Who the h... is trying to get home theater sound without receiver and 7.1 speakers system...? The delivery is great (don't worry), they will even open the box and put the one in its place. And remember - you don't have to pay tax and there is still 24-months free financing available by Amazon. I highly recommend this TV. |
| This is by far the best value on the market and |

| I am not new to HDTV and have a critical eye when I look at the details. I am very confident in saying that you will not be disappointed if you purchase this LED. I'm so glad that I didn't settle for an LCD when it cost so little more to upgrade to this LED. The picture quality is TRULY incredible. If you're considering buying a 46" LCD, stop and take a look at this and look at it again after you consider other options. You, like me, can have LED quality now at a fraction of the price you would pay to upgrade within another manufacturer's line. I know four different households of friends and family with recently purchased LCD's and LED's (all of whom paid more than I did for this Samsung LED). The fact that all of these households (men and women) agree that my Samsung has better picture quality and sound than what they have. Note that some of them have added speakers as I intend to do, but I don't think this add-on will be pressing for me since I can hear it fine but want to hear it at its best at some point. It's probably important to note that my friends and family's purchases were all within the past three to six months and none of them were new to HDTV. I'm telling it to you accurately when I say that each of these households is sorry that they didn't see this set in a home before their purchases.
What we may believe to be superior picture quality in a store and how we see them in our homes can be quite different. Mine is better in my home than it was in the store. It is truly exceptional! I hope this is helpful to someone having difficulty making a decision. Ann |
| Perfect, as expected |

| Bought this a month ago. Have it hooked to my Wii on the AV, PC through VGA, Over-the-Air antenna in the Coax, and DVD through HDMI. I don't have cable and watch most of my TV through the computer. I have an old crappy desktop with an integrated video card serving the TV and it gives surprisingly decent picture even in this big of a TV. The over-the-air quality is amazing, and I'm only using a $10 antenna from Radio Shack (antenna comes with amplifier). Over all, the TV looks great, sounds great, and serves all that it was purchased for. DVD movies look amazing. Highly recommend it. Definitely making watching TV a much more enjoyable experience. |
| Awesome TV |

| After doing lot of research I decided to buy this TV. The ordering process on Amazon was smooth. Soon after I paid for the TV the price went down and Amazon was kind enough to match the price.
Since this is my first HD TV, I am unable to compare the quality of this TV to other HDTV's. My friends who own many HDTVs were blown away by the quality of this TV. One of them has 2009 Samsung model and he said this TV is far better than his TV. The HD channels looks amazing on this TV. The SD channels look much better than I expected. I had two different cable/satellite providers for three weeks and I compared the same picture/channels and found that quality of SD channels depend very much on the service provider. HD channels from both providers looked amazing. TV has 2 USB ports in addition to many other types of inputs. You can view pictures, movie clips taken using your digital camera on this TV without any special software. The TV has its own media player. Pictures taken using digital camera looked very sharp on the TV. I have connected a Flash drives, various memory cards using USB memory cards and USB external hard drives to the TV. The TV is very easy to setup. I recommend that the minimum level of the eco sensor to be changed to a higher number. This completely solves the issue of TV being "too dark" at night time. Printed material included with the TV has a separate sheet on the possible dark pictures due to Eco sensor and how to fix it. You can either turn off the Eco sensor or increase the minimum brightness level. The TV has a small speaker. However, it produces good quality sound for day to day use. If you are looking for Movie Theater sound quality, a home theater systems is recommended. As an average user, I am more than happy with the quality of the sound. |

| I have been shopping for a new TV for over a year and this one hit all the right notes. I bought this from Amazon over a month ago and I have no complaints about the delivery or cost. The picture is great and I have plugged in a Blu-Ray player, computer and Apple TV. Picture quality is excellent. Watching Avatar was like looking through a window.
The only complaint I have is the lack of old style component/composite input ports - only one to share. This will be pretty irrelevant in a few years as HDMI becomes the dominant input - this TV has 4 of them. The other issue is that the digital audio out will not support 5.1/6.1. They recommend that you plug the audio from your device directly into the receiver rather than go though the TV. I wanted to use this TV as a "hub" so that I can have HDMI in and one digital optical into the receiver. The device was not perfect and I would rate it 4.5 stars if I could. Since I can't then I'll give it 5 rather than 4. All things considered, this TV an excellent value. The picture quality is top notch and the price (including delivery and setup) is very reasonable. |
| An outstanding TV |

| When it came time to part with our three year-old Toshiba 42" LCD due to excessive accumulation of burn-in zones, the choice of a replacement caused many hours of auditions in the stores. I kept coming back to the Samsung 46C6300 LED LCD because of its amazing picture and, due of our intent to wall-mount, the great accommodations for compact cable management. In a way, it was a shame that we abandoned using the supplied stand since cables are nicely handled and essentially invisible.
A note here about cables and this machine: forget using the really big Monster and AR HDMI cables. They simply can't be made to fit the routing detents on the back of the TV. I used CablesToGo HDMI's which are much cheaper, more flexible and totally adequate. For wall mounting, we used a SolidMounts UT-600 (which provides 15 degrees of tilt we didn't require) and the resulting assembly is only about 3 inches screen-to-wall. This mount will hold 175 lb. of weight which is very adequate for the 35 lb. Samsung. The TV has a great range of settings for tweaking picture characteristics but, so far, the factory settings are adequate for us. The fact that the screen is glass and our Toshiba was a non-glare material caused some worry about reflections of room lights but Samsung has worked some kind of magic with their glass which seems to eat reflections. All in all, I'm very pleased with the TV, and the price and shipping from Amazon were outstanding. |

| I don't have any complaints... this TV is better than expected, and I expected a lot after reading the reviews... the first TV showed up with a smashed screen, Amazon initially said it would be a week or more to replace, but they actually had a new one set up in my house in 4 days, (probably would have been faster but there was a weekend in there)... great product and very courteous and attentive service.
So far as the 120hz versus the 240hz issue, this 120hz leaves nothing to be desired. |
