Samsung replaced my A850 with a new B750 last month (in warranty exchange) and my experience with the new TV is mixed at best. <br /> <br />First up, the good things that I liked about this TV (obviously I'll be comparing it against A850).. The screen uniformity is probably the best I've seen for an LCD TV and so thinks Cnet and other reviewers. The black levels on this TV are awesome and it now supports a lot more video formats (played from USB port or DLNA) than last year's models. It does have 240 Hz which I am not sure is huge thing 'coz I could never notice any difference compared to 120Hz A850, but the software now supports independent blur and judder control which I think is awesome. Also, using the Game mode doesn't grey out as many controls as the last year's models and 2 ms response time gotta be a good thing right? Grey TOC is so subtle you could barely notice there's any TOC so that could be a huge plus for a lot of people (but personally, I could care less, I mean I liked the red TOC on A850)... so that sums up a lot of positives about this TV. If not for the following negatives, this would have been an almost perfect TV. <br /> <br />Now for the negatives, which is almost driving me crazy at the moment... The viewing angles have definitely taken a hit on this TV compared to A850. I can get the best picture (which is considerably better than A850) from only one seat in my room, and that's right opposite to the samsung logo on the TV, once you are off center, you can see the picture on the opposite side is slowly washing away.. the best way to notice this is to put up a really dark screen and keep moving away from center and you can see blue shade instead of black on the opposite side of the TV. The surprising thing is that this happens even when I am seated on either side of my 3 seater couch which is right opposite to the TV :( ...I don't mean to say that the picture looks like a photo film negative from off angles (like on some dell laptop screens) but you can definitely notice the washing out. <br />The second and probably the most affecting (to me) is that it emits a lot of stray IR which interferes with my Tivo HD and makes my Dish DVR 722K absolutely unusable with IR remote when the TV is on. I have heard of similar stories with AT&T U-Verse set top boxes. So if you own any of these devices, be prepared to go back to 70s era like walking up to the box to change channels, or buy yourself a UHF alternative... Samsung said it's repairable but I am still having difficulty getting it repaired.. maybe I'll have to replace it again :( <br /> <br />And in case you are wondering, why I didn't talk about the TV@Internet yahoo! widgets thingy... it's best kept that way... they are slow as hell and practically unusable unless you got patience levels of Mahatma Gandhi.... that doesn't come under negatives for me 'coz it's comparable to the original samsung widgets on A850, but they now offer more useful widgets like twitter and youtube.. if only they were a little more responsive, that would have definitely ended up high on the positives. <br /> <br />So overall, if you don't have the devices like Tivo HD or Dish DVR (with IR remote) and are not so worried about off angle viewing, this is definitely an awesome TV to suggest.. but if you are like me, then weigh your options. <br /> <br />pal :) Good TV with some noticeable issues

I used to own last year’s model A850 (slim LCD) which was an amazing TV but had two major issues: TOC Separation (Which did it for me) and clouding and flashlighting. Samsung replaced my A850 with a new B750 last month (in warranty exchange) and my experience with the new TV is mixed at best.

First up, the good things that I liked about this TV (obviously I’ll be comparing it against A850).. The screen uniformity is probably the best I’ve seen for an LCD TV and so thinks Cnet and other reviewers. The black levels on this TV are awesome and it now supports a lot more video formats (played from USB port or DLNA) than last year’s models. It does have 240 Hz which I am not sure is huge thing ‘coz I could never notice any difference compared to 120Hz A850, but the software now supports independent blur and judder control which I think is awesome. Also, using the Game mode doesn’t grey out as many controls as the last year’s models and 2 ms response time gotta be a good thing right? Grey TOC is so subtle you could barely notice there’s any TOC so that could be a huge plus for a lot of people (but personally, I could care less, I mean I liked the red TOC on A850)… so that sums up a lot of positives about this TV. If not for the following negatives, this would have been an almost perfect TV.

Now for the negatives, which is almost driving me crazy at the moment… The viewing angles have definitely taken a hit on this TV compared to A850. I can get the best picture (which is considerably better than A850) from only one seat in my room, and that’s right opposite to the samsung logo on the TV, once you are off center, you can see the picture on the opposite side is slowly washing away.. the best way to notice this is to put up a really dark screen and keep moving away from center and you can see blue shade instead of black on the opposite side of the TV.

I love how the DLNA interacts with my PC being able to pull stored photos or videos to the set wirelessly. I did purchase the WiFi adaptor seperately. The Yahoo Gadgets need to be disversified and it looks like they're working on that slowly. I cannot say I have too many complaints with my purchase, I wish I would be able to stream video from Netflix without purchasing another gadget. <br /> <br />Totally worth the $$... Nice TV

Don’t believe Amozon about financing offers!

At the store, I've compared UN46B8000 and LN46B750 side by side. LN46B750 had a natural white(white that is easy on eyes) compared to UN46B8000. When you buy printer papers, you will notice difference in whites. Some white colors feel warmer than others. That is one thing I noticed. Yes, the contrast ratio of the 8000 much higher than 750. I was not convinced 8000 had a better picture quality than 750. However, I went home with 8000. That night, I watched a movie with lights off. I noticed the edges are very slightly brighter than the center. It started annoying me. The remote controller's Left, right, up, and down responded with 1 sec delay. I wasn't going to hung my TV on the wall. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think edge lit back light will turn off the dark areas darker, unlike Local LED back light. I read some reviews that 750 has better uniformity than UNB7000. So, I returned 8000 for 750. Still 14% less energy consumption. I personally think the black looks darker. The edge of LCD is visibly darker than 8000. More video connection. "Plug and Play" Divx movie also works on 750. Oh yeah,, Did I mention the Remote controller works much much better than 8000? The store I went to had a Promotion, and they gave me a free Samsung BR Player. I refunded $400. I'm very happy with 750. A very satisfied purchase
