ln46c750 vs un46c7000 I am looking at these two TVs, one is the cheapest LED and the other one is the most expensive LCD. has anyone compared these two seriously?

Go to www.avsforum.com. Samsung leds are all edge lit and they all have really bad uniformity problems. Only the b8500 and a950 have local dimming.

I looked at both and bought the 750....for the price (and difference) you are really looking at how important a super thin TV is to you, if saving $2 a month on your energy bill makes that big of a difference, or if you are that nuts about LED, for $800 I wasn't. 200,000 to 1 as a Dynamic contrast ratio is more than enough (you can't really tell much more of a difference). If you really wanna get the LED and are willing to spend that kind of money get the 8000 (even thinner and edge lit led). Because of the models above and below it, and price differences I don't see the 7000 making much sense unless you find a unique deal that only has that set on sale.

CNET didn't go wild over the 8000's picture, and I thought it looked pretty good but wasn't any more floored by it than my own ln46c750. Obviously I'm biased at this point considering I've already made the purchase, but I think Beaver is right that the LED component to it gives you mild energy savings and perhaps a more dynamic picture. But I can tell you the c750 can go from almost too bright to quite dark. It's a significant price jump, and if you go to the ln46c750's reviews so far they are quite positive. If it helps the CNET guy who reviews a lot of the TV's said if the C750 was anything like the B750 (his favorite straight LCD tv of last year) then it's a great buy.

There are only a few notable differences, with the UN46F7500 you gain: - Quad-core processor for better multitasking - Builtin webcam (works w/ Skype) - Gesture-based interaction a la webcam - Micro Dimming Pro (vs Micro Dimming) backlighting technology - Clear Motion Rate 960 (vs Clear Motion Rate 720) which is Samsung's benchmark of refresh rate Interestingly, you lose the swivel ability in the stand with the UN46F7500. There are other differences, you can find out about them all here: UN46F7100 Specs: http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/UN46F7100AFXZA-specs UN46F7500 Specs: http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/UN46F7500AFXZA-specs

Not to be rude but Hank really doesn't know what he is talking about. First point: " Both LED and LCD televisions can have 120 hz, 240hz, and even 480 hz and in this case both tv's are 120 hz. Refresh rates are the same so "clarity" from refresh rates will be identical. Second: He says he will never buy a "straight up lcd tv." that's ok but he says he will buy one with LED or LED/LCD. Unless he is looking at a 4inch screen, they will all be LCD backlit withe LEDs. oLED technology in TV's is years away. My thoughts: Both these TV's have their ups and downs. The 630 is thicker and more power hungry but will have a more uniform picture (which if you are in low light situations is better). The 6300 LED/LCD is slim, "cool", better contrast ratio, green, (more expensive) BUT (and a big but) will be brighter around the edges than the center. This is the problem with "budget" LED/LCDs. Most edge lit LED/LCD TVs have this problem. To avoid it and get the best of both worlds one would need to buy one with Local Dimming. This is where the LEDs are placed behind the entire screen, not just the edges. It is a true difference maker. Not that the prices for TV's with Local Dimming are substantially higher (unless you buy the new outstanding Vizio models). Either way, if you don't mind spending a little more and getting a little less with picture uniformity, go with the 6300.

I recently got a LN40C650 and researched it up and down, and honestly I never heard of any power supply issues. The most recent edition of Consumer Reports puts Samsung LCDs near the top for reliability, picture quality and value. I don't think you should base your buying decision on that power supply issue. (just my opinion)

I went with the 4661F mainly because of the non-glare screen. I looked at them both, side-by-side in the store at Best Buy in full daylight and the 4665 was just too reflective and distractive, like looking into a mirror. So what if it has a better contrast ratio. It's really negligible unless you are a videophile geek with superhuman bionic vision who can really distinguish between contrast blacks. And for the money, the 4661F is the better deal. Easiest choice I have ever made buying a television and couldn't be happier.

I don't have that model no. I have a 47LV5500 which I've had for several years and am completely satisfied. I'd suggest going to the LG site or read the description and the comparison section at the lower part of the Amazon page for the LG tv you are asking about. They compare all models and I made my decision for the LV5500 because of the higher contrast and refresh rate. one tv might have a contrast of 400,00 while a model for $100 more is rated at 4,000,000. that's picture quality and I'm satisfied with the LV5500.

I actually just bought the 8500 today, at my local Besy Buy. They had one brand new one left at the store (although they did say that they had about 30 left at the warehouse here in St. Loius). I was able to get it for $2950. The salesman said I basically paid their cost for the TV. Not sure really believe that... Anyhow, I must say, this is quite possibly the best picture I have ever seen on a TV. I was going to wait until the 3D 8000, however, after reading a bunch of reviews, and seeing the 3D 8000 at my local Ultimate Electronics, I decided to just go with the 8500.

I found this review on cnet... it doesn't call out every LED/LCD TV.. but lists quite a few. I feel the reader can extrapolate how their TV model should stack up. But according to CNET; the Samsung 46" LED TVs are about 40% more efficient than the Samsung 46" LCD TVs.some highlightsSamsung UN46B7000 107WSamsung LN46A950 146Whttp://reviews.cnet.com/green-tech/tv-consumption-chart/?tag=contentBody;nextPage

There's a review on the LN--B750 line on CNET. Overall, it was rated as 'Excellent'. As far as the 240Hz motion is concerned, the review goes over the discernible, though slight, differences compared to 120Hz. I checked out forums about the LN46B750 and everyone had nothing but great things to say about it.I was actually able to cancel my LN46A860 with Crutchfueld even though it had already shipped (I still feel bad about this). Fortunately, customer service was exemplary and straightforward about the issue. I put in my order for the LN46B750 through Amazon with the $300-off promotion. I'll be receiving it by next mid-week. I'll let you know how it is. There's a review on the LN--B750 line on CNET. Overall, it was rated as 'Excellent'.

I could get technical here, but rest assured it is a LED TV, and from what I've seen (I own it) and heard (from others on the web), it is currently the best 55" inch LED TV you can buy right now.Nice choice. Sit back and enjoy it. I get nothing but compliments from everyone who has seen its' display.

I've been researching tv's for several months and have decided on the LN46A750. The price at Amazon is unbelievable. I'm going to order one next month. Has anyone purchased the extended warranty? I hear Samsung tv's are excellent quality and wonder if I really need a warranty.

Samsung UN46C6500 LED TV.............. Hey J. just received my 46 LED and the version number you said is SQ01 version, therefore, Amazon is selling the version made by Samsung. I was a bit concerned when you posted this sometime back and was wondering if I may have gotten the other versions. But that said Amazon is selling the SQ01 version, at least that is the one i received when i purchased.

J. Greer, which Best Buy did you get your TV from? The ones that I have visited in MI are not even carrying any 950s, I am not sure why. Also, did any of you compare the picture quality of the 950 with the 850? Is there a big improvement? Not sure which one I want to get, I realize one is LED and one is not but the A850 has a great deal on it while the 950 is on the expensive side for me. If there is a big difference I am willing to spend extra on the 950. Thanks!

Just for clarity sake, Techno Newbie quotes CNET for his Panasonic being highly rated but then calls Samsung "low line". Just to point out that CNET also named Samsung 32A450 as the best 32 inch LCD TV. If you're going to use a source to back up your opinion, don't neglect the same source when it doesn't agree with you.

How would you compare the Sony KDL-XBR6 with the Samsung LN32A650? I'm not too crazy about Samsung's so-called Touch of Color Design (TM) for its bezel (amber/black), however. But I'd like to know which model should I buy for my daughter's birthday. She lives in an apartment in Chicago.Thanks.Len Bloom

The 62 series are terrible. They are older models which have poor picture quality and often suffer from horizontal banding issues. Go with the 64 series for sure. I own the 46" 64U series btw.
