Samsung LN46B750 46" LCD HDTV 46-inch 60Hz 1080p LCD HD Television

This review is not about the TV which is great.It's to expose their fraudulent finance offers.One of the selling points for me was their 24 month no interest financing offer.THEY NEVER HONORED THAT OFFER!After I ordered the TV I started receiving e-mails from Amazon to the effect that my order was canceled.When I called to inquire why they said my Amazon store card was stolen.I told them this was impossible as I had not received it yet!I applied for it the same time I purchased the TV.I had to reapply for another card.This put me passed the deadline for the financing offer.By the way it took at lest an hour to get that straightened out as I keep getting passed back and forth between Amazon customer service and the credit department.Neither department wanted to take responsibility.I then confirmed with the representative that I would still get the same financing offer.To which she agreed.
When I received my first bill there was a finance charge.I called and the rep said it would be corrected and credited.It was not.I had another finance charge on my next statement.I then called GE who is a separate entity and does the financing for Amazon.I was told that they didn't offer a 24 month no interest financing.He offered me a 18 month no interest financing.I decided this would be the best offer I could get so I took it.I'm just waiting to see if that will actually be honored!
Bottom line.Amazon can not legally make any financing offer as they don't have a credit department.TV's purchased on credit from Amazon are financed through GE.

This tv was really cool no problems, it was packaged good cuz the box had a dent but the tv didnt even had a scratch. the tv has many usful features like u can like it with ur computer throught a network and it can go online for updates and widgets. color is great and so is the sound. well no complains here hope your is as good or better for u.

I am very happy with this TV. Setup was easy, picture quality is great, and it looks great in the apartment. Very satisfied.

My wife and I are extremely pleased with our new TV. The price was well under any local prices that we shopped. With the year and no interest payback, it was a perfect time to upgrade. The picture is amazing! The only thing we don`t like is having to by the Samsung $80.00 part so that it can be wireless and online.

I checked out many different 46" TV's and I found this to have the best picture of the bunch. Picture was great out the box and some of the other reviews may have been to critical of the picture quality. The blacks were black and the reds clear. The instructions were a little confusing and switching between modes was confusing.

I purchased this TV from Samsung 3 months ago, and it had issues from the start: the audio output only channelled sound to one external speaker. Apparently this is a common problem. They should have recalled the TV. Next, the video input from HD cable became defective. So, there was no HD picture coming through from my calbe box. Now, I had paid $2000 for the TV, extra $ for HD cable, and I am getting subpar, blurry TV. Hmmm. By this time, The Amazon 30 day warrantee had expired. Samsung folks are really nice on the phone, but in terms of getting service repair-men out to fix your TV. . . lets just say, they are suboptimal. I was assigned to 4 different repair companies before I realized, no one will fix this defective issue. Very frustrated. Very angry. Will never buy a Samsung product again.

Although I planned on purchasing one of these, due to a failure of an older Plasma, purchased a second one of the identical TV. We could not be more pleased with these LCD's. One of these is hung over a fireplace in a brightly lit room (20' ceiling with lots of windows) and the image is flawless even at mid day. The other is in a smaller room (14 x 14) and provides a true theatre experience because it is so large in the small room but IMO is not too large (not sure my wife woudl agree with this statement). I have it mounted on the top of a 6' cabinet and it works out perfectly. Many have mentioned that the field of vision is not ideal unless you are not looking straight on at the TV but I have not found that an issue. With both installations, you have to look up to the TV and no one has made a negative comment. In the small room I use the internal speaker of the TV and it is adequate at best. On the one in the larger room, i have the Bose center channel speaker on a surround sound system and it is a very nice installation. Could not be more pleased with these purchases. I call BS on the complaints of the prior two reviews about the $500 repair and the financing issue. Have been a long term customer of Amazon and never had a problem.

Well I've only had the television a few days, but I really love it. I was very lucky as I found a $150 coupon which ran out Nov. 7, so I was extremely pleased with that. It came in 6 days and checked by the delivery person to make sure all was in order. Bang for the buck I believe I got a great deal and I think you will find that samsung is in the top three of the televisions you should buy. I love the 150,000 to 1 contrast ratio and I've been told that is how you should buy is by the contrast ratio. Hope all of you have great luck in whatever you buy.....don

Overall, very nice. I am glad I purchased, very pleased.

Pro - Very nicely finished, great picture, easy set up, lots of features.
Con - No hard copy manual

Install issues - None.

Price Paid $1279

This is an outstanding television! I have to admit, I was dragging my feet even entering the HDTV market, as I am a "reverse snob" and don't like to admit how important TV is in our lives: "What, spend hundreds of dollars on such a passive form of entertainment? Surely our OLD televisions are just fine." Sniff, sniff.

Well, I'm eating crow and happy to be doing so! One day a few months ago, I got off my high horse and admitted just HOW much pleasure our family gets from TV shows like "Mad Men" or "Fringe" or "Amazing Race" and how enthralled my daughters have been with big box sets of gorgeous shows like "Planet Earth"...or how we like to watch documentaries and dramas from Netflix nearly every weekend, together, and, really, we AREN'T going to become illiterate slobs JUST because we have a good television set... :-) The time had come to get something that could take advantage of all the wonderful advances in technology (Blueray, Netflix, high def programming) and so I started researching LCD TV's.

After much online searching, after review after review, after looking at actual sets in the stores, I settled on this Samsung--with some degree of trepidation, as it cost nearly three times the price of our last set. We've had it about a month, now, and we are ABSOLUTELY THRILLED: the picture quality is stunning--especially for travel and nature shows--and the set just works beautifully. My daughter--a gamer--was astounded to discover entire aspects of her favorite PS3 games (details, scenes, artistic fonts, etc.) that hadn't been translating onto our old Sony crt TV, at all. The television even looks gorgeous when it's not turned on, and doesn't seem as massive and attention-grabbing as our looming, extraordinarily heavy Sony Triniton, despite having a screen nearly twice as large. No other lcd hdtv I've seen begins to compare with the extraordinary detail, sharpness, and overall LIFELIKE quality of the images that Samsung managed to produce.

Just this week, I got my latest issue of PC World magazine, and was pleased--but not the least surprised--to discover that they had rated this model as absolutely TOPS in its class (Lcd hdtv's over 40") AND also listed it as #10 in their rundown of "Top 100 Technological Products of 2009" as well.

I did about two months worth of looking and research to find the right set and the right deal. This TV is in a dedicated media room in my new home. I purchased this TV through Amazon back in August with an amazing coupon deal. I also considered competing models from Sony, LG, Toshiba and Sharp, as well as the Samsung 550 and 650 versions in this size. To my eyes, the Samsung models have deeper blacks and better contrast in well-lit rooms as well as in darker, home theater rooms. To be fair, I also believe the Sony sets have better color saturation and better standard def processing. Additionally, the Sony sets do not have the glossy panel that the Samsung 650 and 750 models use. And let me get this out of the way: The panel on this set (750) is plenty glossy and will reflect light. If you intend to place this set in, say, a family room with lots of natural light as well as lights from a kitchen, breakfast or dining area, I would not recommend this set. The panel does have some sort anti-reflective layer, supposedly, but I think there are limits to how much reflection it can really diffuse. At the very least, if you aren't sure, make sure you hold onto your receipt and the packaging that the set came in should you decide that there's too much reflection on the glass for you. It's not a problem for me, but I can certainly see where this can create problems for others. The glossy panel issue aside, this is a terrific TV. I truly believe that this LCD set gives you the most plasma-like picture of any traditional LCD TV on the market. If you want plasma blacks and contrast in a lighter, more energy-efficient package for your home theater, the Samsung LN46B750 is worth a look and, in my mind, worth the slightly higher price of entry. The newer, back-lit LED models from Samsung, LG, Toshiba and Sharp may provide the same or slightly better picture quality, but I honestly don't believe the added price of those sets is worth the marginal improvements that they may deliver. I have played around some with the 240hz motion processing on this Samsung, but I don't really dig the cloudy, soap-opera effect that this technology tends to create. I generally leave it off. I also have not played around with the online widgets that this set comes loaded with. I suppose they are nice to have, but I didn't buy this TV for the widgets. I watch a lot of football on this TV and the picture has never disappointed, but I really feel like this set shines with movies and similar theatrical content. Get yourself a Blu-Ray player and a decent surround sound system with this TV and you may never leave your house. Seriously. Last thing I'll say is that this TV provides you with a lot of picture control that you don't get elsewhere - particularly the separate blur reduction and judder settings for motion processing. If you love to tweak picture settings for different kinds of lighting situations and/or content, then this set is for you.

I intentionally held off writing this review until I had used the TV for a while. After having the TV installed for about 5 weeks now I feel comfortable in reviewing the product.

Simply put it rocks. The picture quality is superb. The interface is relatively easy to use.

Pros:
1. Picture quality is amazing. The fastest most demanding sports, and action scenes are flawless.
2. No "wasted space" There is very little "casing" around the TV. No bulky speakers on the side etc.
3. Digital Tuner will likely give you a lot more channels with no adapter or cable box. You still won't get all of your premium channels but you will get more than just the analog tier. (note that I don't use this as my primary input for TV viewing only for the PIP functionality).

Cons:
1. No single button for PIP. Makes it difficult/impossible to get to PIP from a Harmony remote.
2. The Yahoo Widget gallery is slow. Painfully slow. Slow to the point that every time you access it it takes 2-3 minutes.
3. The Automotion Plus is a matter of taste. You may love it or you may hate it. I ended up turning it off as it makes people in regular TV shows seem "hyper real". I don't know how else to describe it. It almost seems like they are cutouts layered on top of the background. I know that describes it poorly but you really have to see it to understand it.

Can't comment on:
1. Speaker quality- Never used them never will. Everything runs through my sound system.

This Samsung LN46B750 replaced a top of the line component video tube set and delivers a better picture, one of the few LCD sets I've seen that does. Black blacks, good viewing angle and great color. 150,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio does make a difference. The 240 Hz refresh allows flicker free viewing even with fast moving sports video. Delivery was into the house and included a functional operating check. Interface to a home theater system also worked well and there are plenty of HDMI inputs to support optimal ease of use and audio/video quality. Be sure to have enough HDMI cables on handMediabridge Ultra Series - 6ft High Speed HDMI Cable - Version 1.3 Category 2 Certified - 1080p - Blu-Ray - PS3; local stores charge a lot for them and you won't be able to wait for 2 day mail order delivery in order to install this TV properly.

Set this TV up today. Had to call the delivery company to schedule the delivery. No big deal considering what I saved. One of the best HDTV I have seen. Highly recommend for the price.

I researched this model and other Samsung models for the past year. When the B series was released I knew that this was the one for me. I compared the LN46B750 ($1279) to the UN46B8000 ($1850-$2299 range) and really couldn't see much difference in them except for thickness and price. I asked several sales reps at the big box stores to explain the advantage of the LED Vs the LCD model and all they said was thickness, weight, power consumption and price. Hmmm, oh they did say that I would have bragging rights to say that I had an LED TV if I purchased the 8000. When I questioned about the 150,000:1 Vs 5,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio they all said that there is really no "industry standard" so the manufacturers can claim any amount they want. Nuf said, after a little more research (and taking the wife to look at them in the stores - IMPORTANT STEP DON'T SKIP IT!) we decided to buy the LN46B750 and I'm glad I did. I purchased our TV at Amazon with $150 off promotion and free shipping via CEVA - GREAT VALUE! The TV arrived early and the delivery service was a nice benefit too. By the way, we like to support our local community so I tried to get Best Buy to match or come close to Amazon's price at two stores. One tried by taking $60 off their sales price and the other flat said NO! Even with the $60 off we would have paid $240 more at Best Buy than at Amazon. I was very hesitant to buy something this large and price online but glad I did!


The picture quality is near perfect after some calibration - factory default settings are not the best. Without calibration you will have milky bleed-over from white to black scenes. The factory settings are just too "hot" for the most part. Some of the "tweaking" took some time though. The manual could have been written better and larger print. I did some research online to determine how to calibrate the unit to obtain what I think is the best picture. [...] . Don't worry about buying those blue glasses from THX to calibrate your set's color and tint. The LN46B750 has a Blue Screen feature built in to do that - THAT'S AWESOME! Remember you really need HD input to get the sharpest picture but that's true with any flatscreen. Take the time to calibrate your set...you'll be glad you did. By the way, Best Buy will try to upsell you to have their Geek Squad calibrate your TV for you for around $300+.

Best Settings for us:
Mode ~ Natural (The 'Standard' setting will give you more options-check it out too)
Backlight ~ 9
Contrast ~ 83
Brightness ~ 47
Sharpness ~ 25
Color ~ 48
Tint ~ G50/R50

The 240hz options are a little confusing. The manual simply says what the on-screen info says and doesn't explain why you would want to adjust it. I use the "Standard" setting and with fast action shows, football games, etc. it's awesome.

My set is in a fairly bright room with large windows and the picture quality is great. The shiny screen does reflect light so if you happen to sit where you can see reflections simply adjust the window blinds a little, dim the lights, etc...no problem.

Another reviewer mentioned "a thin flickering white/silver line that would flicker on top of the screen right under the bezel during many dark scenes. It was not too noticeable, but enough to become a slight nuisance. This was really obvious on dark knight, and also the Planet Earth bluray during the immersive underwater scenes.' This can be remedied by simply using the "Screen Fit" feature and adjust the pictue up slightly. To me this an awesome way to "Tweak" your set to accomodate various inputs of picture quality.

Some have complained about the qualify of the audio. I calibrated the equalizer and the sound is very good...as good or better than my old RCA 32" CRT set. And when using my surround sound the movies sound great anyway. I did notice though that the units in the store were set to the factory default with is "flat-line ~ mid range" on all setting for the equalizer. So don't be discouraged when you check that out at the stores. We tested the Samsung and Sony side by side on audio quality while at Best Buy and got discouraged until we realized that the Samsung's equalizer had not been calibrated but the Sony's had. Perhaps Samsung should consider a demo setting to give more range for the audio for the stores.

The remote is 100% backlit and has a nice glossy finish that fits well in an adult hand. It is very user friendly and the adjustment/tools menu's are also user friendly. The only negative that I've found with it is the buttons are somewhat difficult to press. The remote would not be good for someone with small or weak hands/fingers. Senior adults and small children may struggle with the remote.

TV demensions shown are spot on. Fortunately for us since our cabinet required the exact demensions of the LN46B750 model. Viewing angle is not a problem at all. We sit about 8-10 feet from the screen and range from straight on (90 degrees) to about 70 degrees off center or 140 degrees viewing angle. At 70 degrees you notice a little washout but very tolerable and should be expected on LCD's.

We use HDMI inputs and Optical Audio out. All worked great. We've not tried the Widget's feature yet - working on a wireless LAN to connect to the Internet. Always more to buy! But that part of the fun. Nor have we tried the Game mode - not much need for that in our home.

All in all, I highly recommend this product!

I have the 46 inch version of the tv and it is well worth it. At first the picture look so good and clear that it looks fake and it also seemed like the people's movement were wierd. Hard to explain but it was irritating. So I had to adjust that by putting raising the Blur Recution to 9 and lowering the judder reduction to 1. Now it looks like a regular tv and perfect, at least to me. I went to a friend's house and he had the older model 46 inch 750 samsung with the red bazel and 120hz. It didn't have the option to customize judder and blur and his tv was wierd irritating to me. I guess that option really makes a difference. I don't know whats the difference between 240 and 120 but in comparing his tv and mine, I'm glad to have bought this tv.

Like others I have read about, the LN46A750 lasted for 3 months beyond the 12 month warranty but I liked it up to that point so I ordered the LN46B750. Good sound and great picture with lots of features to figure out for someone that is not very savy with new electronics items. Decided to get the extended 3 year warranty from Samsung to make sure that I didn't have to pay $300 for a new power supply after one year with new TV. Now Samsung won't even send me a hard copy of the warranty extension. They make a nice SHORT TERM product but their customer service SUCKS! I wouldn't buy this item from any vendor that didn't have a good return policy like Amazon. Amazon has helped a lot up to this point.

The Good:
- Excellent picture with HD signals and I haven't even tweaked anything yet.
- Some images do have the 3D picture quality mentioned by another reviewer.
- Has a side input for connecting temporary devices quickly.
- Nice menu systems except for the tedious source select options.
- Good swivel base, although I wish it swiveled another 45 degrees.
- The picture is good and has minimal glare issues even with strong overhead lighting.
- Amazon sells it directly. Buy from Amazon whenever possible. They provide excellent customer service.


The Bad:
- Not sure where the controls for turning the system on and off are, but I know the CIA needs to hire Samsung because they sure know how to keep a secret. Luckily, I use the remote most of the time anyway.
- Some ghosting with non-HD channels, but many picture issues are a function of the cable box or satellite transmission and not the TV. The way to test for this is to play a high quality DVD. If the picture quality is great there, then it may be the cable/satellite or its connections that is the problem. However, some LCDs seem to do a better job with non-HD broadcasts.
Can ask your cable company to help set up your TV to maximize picture quality for broadcasts that are not at 1080 resolution.
- Picture is not as clear for regular channels as it was with a standard TV.
- Too tedious and slow to change input sources. Would have appreciated if the TV auto sensed when a DVR was set to play and automatically switched to it. Similarly, stopping the DVR should return the picture to the TV source. This is how a 15 year old TV I have works and I expected something similar with a current LCD TV. Granted, the LCD allows many more sources (DVR, PC, Blue-Ray), but the LCD should be able to automatically switch back to whichever one was playing before you set the current one to play.
- Average sound, but this was expected and I plan to play sound through a real sound system anyway.
- Slow to change channels, although I'm not sure how much the cable box has to do with this or the fact that digital systems are slower at this kind of thing.
- Poor Samsung customer service. A relative had a B630 (matte screen) which wouldn't come on sometimes and had other picture issues. Called Samsung customer service. Said they would arrange a service call and someone would be getting back to me. By the time they got back to them a week later, we had already arranged to return the system and purchase something else.


Can't review the Internet widgets and capabilities included in this system as I don't use them. I use my PC for that. Similarly, I don't see much difference with the 240 Hz feature, but I haven't tested it enough to review it.

Have it connected with HDMI cables to the cable box and component cables for my DVD. Before buying HDMI cables, check with your cable company to ensure their cable box has HDMI outputs.

Get a 3 year extended warranty from Square Trade (the unit comes with a one year warranty and Square Trade extends it 2 more years), as Samsung seems a little flaky to deal with despite manufacturing an excellent LCD TV.

Like many others, I researched LCD TV's for several months. I was originally going to buy when the A850 was nearing the end of it's run and then the B series came out. Glad I waited. With Amazon's recent promotion, picking up this TV at 1279 could not be passed up. The picture quality, color accuracy, and contrast levels on this TV are top-notch. Blacks are black, whites are bright white. Others have mentioned the ultra clear screen as being a problem with reflection. As someone with a picture window on the opposite wall of the TV, the glare effect is not noticable with the TV on. Audio is on par for a pair of built it speakers and there is an equalizer to help customize the sound a bit more. I did turn down the Judder effect on the 240hz motion. It's factory set at 5. I turned it to 0. Only problem I have is with the picture size set to 'Screen-Fit', I get a green vertical line on the right edge of the TV. I can use the 'move' feature to get rid of it, but it seems to be only temporary. So I use size 16:9 instead and all is well. All in all this was a great purchase that I'm very pleased with. This TV will not disappoint. I've had it about a month now and I am still WOW'd by the clarity of the picture, especially during sports like football and basketball. Just buy it, you won't regret it!

Found this samsung 750 for an amazing price!!! this is my first flat screen and a hit a grand slam. I love it!!! The picture is just incredible! Sound is ok for my small living room. I will add a system to it once we move. The internet stuff works fairly well, love watching youtube on there. I have my computer and tv linked together and play all of my audio and video through network. Still fairly new and i haven't had it long enough to know what it will really do. LOVE IT!

About a year ago I purchased a LN46650, 120 hz,TV room location, and had a very positive experience-delivery,setup, and installation. I guess because of the economy, I upgraded to a LN46750, 240 hz for the same price (Bedroom location). If you can be patient and persistent, then the price game playing can work to your advantage. I hooked up the direct earthnet cable after almost ending my life in the attic routing. I have a bad taste in my mouth for Samsung driving the price up on their wireless drive.(It's definitely a gouge.) The firmware needs to be downloaded for the widgets to work. Although slow in response time, it is being used as a secondary source.

Have had this hdtv for over a month .could not be happier it is so nice. I have owned several hdtv this is by far the best I have had . Get one you will not be sorry

I tested this TV for about 2 months before I finally asked Amazon for my money back. My first had faulty speakers which would cut out and begin to make a loud, repeating beep. My second had an exacerbated problem that is a distinct problem with this model.

Both of my trial televisions had horrendous viewing angles. I sit about 12 feet away from my entertainment center. If I laid down on my couch, the opposing side of the TV would wash out considerably. If I kept this television, I would feel bad about anyone not sitting in the "captain's chair," or better known as directly in the middle of the television. On my second television, even if I sat directly in front of the TV, the upper edges of the screen would wash out! I did not find this acceptable for a $1600 television and was the main reason I returned the second set. Once I realized this issue was occuring, I could not "unnotice" it.

Besides the viewing angle, I had a problem with the colors. The greens were almost neon no matter what how I calibrated it. My calibration scheme consisted of the recommendations on [...]. The picture is very bright, the colors "pop" and is probably considered pleasing to the general consumer. I can only take that store brightness for so long.

The menus were excellent, though a little laggy. The included internet functionality is pretty good. The ability to easily customize a ton of video options is welcome. Gaming mode is necessary to avoid gaming lag.

The set I bought and am currently using is the Panasonic TC-P50G10. I am quite pleased with this set. It doesn't have the "pop," but is more realistic in terms of color. I got 4 more inches for about $400 less at a local store. I had not considered a plasma due to all perception issues with plasmas with burn-in. These issues aren't present in the latest plasma sets. For $400 less, its a no brainer and I can't recommend overpriced LCDs like the Samsung LN46B750 when you have the plasma option. Usually great blacks and a uniform picture anywhere you sit except for extreme angles.

I will Never buy another Samsung Product again. Why, you ask?

I purchased Samsung TV (LN46A850, not the one shown in the review) 10 months ago (Feb.'09). One of the main reasons I selected this TV was for its wireless LAN ability. Well I'm just now getting around to add this function so I can connect the TV to my wireless network and I find that Samsung does not support this function even though its in the specifications and in the User's Manual. It requires a wireless LAN adapter (pt# WIS-08BG2X) that is only available from Samsung. Problem: Samsung does not sell this item any longer and there is nowhere else to get one! I attempted to do a warranty claim today and the customer service people tell me its too late, that I should have returned the TV within the first 30 days if I didn't like it. This TV is still under warranty and Samsung will provide no technical support, no firmware fix, no wireless adapter and no warranty exchange! I'm stuck with this TV that has no wireless capability and Samsung says, "Sorry, can't help you!" I just wanted to warn anyone what to expect from Samsung in case you are foolish enough to purchase one of their products. I learned the hard way. Samsung, never again!

I just absolutely love this TV!! I bought a Samsung 40" a few months ago & was just blown away by the great picture. So I thought it would be nice to put that TV in my bedroom and get the 46" for my den. I am in absolute heaven. I never want to leave the house!!!! You cannot go wrong with Samsung!!

I've only had the LN46B750 for about a week, but have been able to run various resolutions of cable TV channels through it [including HD], and am very pleased particularly when using fit-to-screen picture sizing. I ran a DVD of Kill Bill II, that was fine in movie mode, and a blueray of Blade Runner was fantastic (though a bit dark - my fault, need to better adjust my setup).
I've also done the internet setup (downloaded my 1st firmware upgrade), and the DLNA setup. The DLNA seems to fail (perhaps with time-outs) I am not sure if my serving PC is too much of a dog, or if one really needs to use an "N" wireless network (for speed) - I'm thinking my little dual-core isn't fast enough.

I gave this 4 stars since I have a nagging feeling that many less-expensive sets would have suited my needs. I am hoping that the extra cost will be justified in longevity.

PS for peace of mind, you might want a warranty (like squaretrade), and amazon white glove delivery. My 'free' Samsung BD-P1600 played a DVD, a blueray, then got hosed all within 24 hours - I have to send it back for service or replacement. If you have a Samsung TV and a Samsung blue ray player, you might want to turn off the function that allows communications via the HDMI cables... that might have been what interfered with and killed my blueray player... again - who knows.

I have had this Samsung 46 inch HDTV for just a little over a month. It is absolutely great! The delivery service took it out of the box, attached the stand and plugged it in. They did not hook it up to the HD satellite box, but thats ok, I wanted to do it myself. It was very easy to set up and configure.

It does not come with an HDMI cable, which you will need in order to realize the full potential of this TV. Don't just buy any old HDMI cable though. Make sure the package says it supports 1080P resolution and 240hz refresh rate. I got an excellent cable at Wally World for $34.00. (Sony)

This is my first HDTV and I am still amazed at the picture everytime I turn it on. I was going to get the 120hz model, but my wife had a fit about the RED touch of color. And that was all that was available in 120hz. I'm glad she did now. I have watched many different programs, including sports, and there is no blurring.

I bought this TV last week. I tried to share my laptop files with TV via DLNA but it didn't work. I called Samsung support and none of their on call person was able to resolve it. They transferred it to their Tier 2 support and the lady tried to resolve it but couldn't. She told that someone from Samsung will call after few hrs but nobody called even after one day. I tried to call them again they gave me reference number:2010796743 to track the complain and again told that a product specialist will call within few days. I am fed up of their customer support and going to return this TV tomorrow.

Sunil

it is not as sharp in hd as i thought. maybe because it isn't a led. the speakers need more base.

I was debating between this and the XBR9 and I'm glad I got this TV. Not only is it $200 cheaper, but the B750 is just better in every way. Colors are brighter/warmer than the XBR9, the 240hz makes watching sports a dream, and even playing video games is not as bad as people make it out to be. I didn't have any quality control issues, everything worked out of the box and it was easy to setup. People complain about the sound, but honestly it's not that bad, it's only bad because the picture is so awesome you wish you had the sound system to go with it.

I LOVE this tv.

Since this is our first HD TV, I put a lot of time and energy into researching what TV would be the best for our budget. I had managed to scrap together around $1,400 and wanted to get the most that I could for within $100 of that price range.

I kicked a lot of tires in October/November of 2009, debating between buying this Samsung, which was top of its class at the beginning of the year or jumping in to the emerging LED market. A friend who runs a home theater installation company gave me the thumbs up on the B750, but also said that I should also check out the Samsung UN46B6000 46-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV.

The B6000 is 120 Hz versus the 240 Hz for the B750 - and after viewing them side by side, I fully believe that the B750 has better image processing for live-action sports. The B6000 simply wasn't as smooth and had dropout in comparison.

I got the B750 from a vendor local in SF, and the picture looked a little odd out of the box. The contrast was set way too high, making most shows look fake and staged. I found some image configuration & calibration setups I online, and have loved the picture ever since. We got it just in time for the fall football season, and love it.

Watching one game on the NFL Network I thought the screen looked cluttered and noisy - until I realized it was footprints in the turf that I was seeing so clearly. Bluray Discs look incredible, PS3 games are insane, and HD programming is gorgeous. These are on sale now for amazing prices, and your money is better spent on this than the B6000 - with the money you save you can get a PS3 slim - the best damn Bluray player on the market.

Outstanding TV! Great picture and functionality. Samsung should include the wireless adapter for the price you pay for this tv.

Excellent product. Very good viewing angle. The picture quality is still very good at 45 degrees and beyond.

Received in good time and perfect condition. Picture is great and so far everything working perfectly.

I am not the kind of individual that can tell you all the technical aspects of a TV. However, I will say that I was slightly worried ordering such a high ticket item online. All I can say is that the experience exceeded all of my expectations. I could track the package easily and the delivery and set up was a breeze. I was watching my new TV five minutes after receiving it. We are very happy with the purchase and if you are concerned about ordering online . . . don't be. We are extremely happy and satisfied with our purchase.

The TV is good but don't expect it to have a crystal clear picture like store models if you are receiving an analog cable signal. On the other hand DVD movies are awesome with no pixel degeneration in action scenes and blacks are dark enough for me. Sound system is somewhat weak so spend some dollars for at least a sound bar. Wigits are a joke so if you are buying for with the intention of surfing the web you will be very disappointed. If you view a lot of you tube, or rent blockbuster movies (selection is limited) it might have benefit but manipulating the key pad for navigation is awkward at best. I also purchased a wireless network adaptor which works very well and I can share picture files from my computer. You cannot share programs so hence internet access is out. Files from a share folder only! I have not connected a hard drive to the TV to use it as a monitor to see how it performs with steaming content with the computer acting like a server. There may be ways around these short comings but I haven't had time to play with it. I viewed a lot of different models and Samsung in my opinion has one of the very best picture qualities in this line of any manufacturer.

Very pleased with the LN46B750. We purchased this TV on sale in December during a promotion that included a free Samsung Blu-ray player. Both units work exceptionally well together and Blu-ray movies are absolutely stunning. At times, the picture is surreal looking. No problems with fast motion scenes in movies or sports. Glossy screen was a concern, but it has proven to not be a problem in various lighing conditions ranging from brightly lit incandescent, moderate sunlight from a bank of windows, or viewing in the dark. Not to say there is never any glare in those situations, but it has not been a distraction. Although there is a plethora of settings, I have tweaked the TV very little. I have not seen the need to greatly modify the settings, but there is a wealth of information on the internet for those that choose to do so. Streaming content through a LAN wire has been surprisingly good with Netflix. I haven't tried the wireless adapter that Samsung sells, so I can not comment on streaming content wirelessly. For anyone with Comcast (I live in northern middle Tennessee as a point of reference), tv viewing has been through a Comcast HD-DVR cable box with picture quality ranging from excellent (HD channels) to average (standard def channels). Depending on strength of signal, there can be slight picture degradation at times, but this is a Comcast issue not the LN46B750. Another positive is the number of component connections available on this TV. Check Samsung's website for a good picture of the various connections to assist you in planning your home theater set-up or incorporating your existing components. Planning ahead also will help you determine your cable needs prior to set-up. Better to buy cables at a great price on Amazon instead of getting hosed at BB. Now for why I rated the TV 4 stars instead of 5. I really don't believe a 5 star TV exists, but here are the slight negatives. Remotes is slightly clunky meaning it doesn't register instantly. There is a slight lag, maybe a second. Internet widgets are slow and the interface is a pain in the you know where. It is similar to the Wii where a graphical keyboard appears on screen. You navigate the keyboard with the arrows of the remote. The widgets themselves are not bad, but the way they are implemented probably needs a model year or two before the concept and ease of application are at the same level. The sound is average, but many reviewers have commented on this before. Treble is crisp and clear. Bass leaves something to be desired. This is realistic based on the size of the speakers, so it didn't come as a shock. Surround sound speakers or a speaker bar will probably enhance your viewing experience, if that is your preference. I plan to add one of the two in the near future. I hope your find this review helpful. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend or family member.

This TV is absolutely fantastic! It's HD and give you the feeling that you are right there on the street with Gibbs, Tony, Ziva and McGee. It is the best Christmas Present ever!

Got this TV after extensive research. A few reasons why I bought it:

- Top of the Line. No panel lottery, etc (got SQ01 version mfg Dec 09).
- 240Hz
- Pinacle of LCD television development, LED TV's still have many Picture Quality issues, especially in the price range of the TV (i.e. UN46B6000).
- Most excellent Reviews, best PQ of any LCD TV reviewed by CNET.
- Internet connectivity, widgets, work great!
- Amazing picture adjustability.
- Esthetically beautiful.

While there are other 52" LCD TV's in the price range, like the LN52B630, while larger, it's older technology and doesnt have all the features of this TV, its 120Hz and costs about the same.

I do have some negatives to talk about: The remote is not very responsive. The Yahoo widgets also are fairly slow. The glare on the screen can be noticeable.

Overall, if PQ is what matters most, this TV is for you. I love it and for $1399 shipped its a great bang for your buck.

PS Pilot home delivery delivered it 1 day late...

Within 2 months of buying this TV we saw a big ugly blue line atleast 2 inches wide just off the center. It was coming off and on and was very very frustrating for the big buck we paid for the TV. We had to change the panel which was not a fun thing. Otherwise the picture quality is good.

This is a terrific tv. Very easy to set-up. The picture is beautiful. Shopping for it on Amazon was easy and stress free.

first shipment was received broken, replacement received was great. by far best picture I have ever had with tv

We're very pleased with this TV. The only thing I personally would like is that our Dish remote would work with the TV. I can't find the right code and get bored repeating the steps over and over and over to find it. This is our first flat screen and bought Samsung because of the references of friends and websites.

I have been looking for a TV for a long time. I, like everyone else, compared a couple of TV's countlessly for hours to see which would be the best for me. I decided to go with the 750 due to the great reviews by CNET and other customers. It was time for me to pick a place to buy it from. I had 2 choices. Amazon or Best Buy. I chose Amazon for the money I would save. I had the item in my carts for months, wanting to get it, but never making the purchase. The only thing I was scared about was the fact that some of the reviews people had DOA TV's and the hassle for getting a new one seemed dreadful. I decided to go with Warehouse Deals because it saved me another 300. ( make sure you read the comments to see what is wrong with that particular item). My item didn't say it had anything wrong with it (scratches, scuffs etc). The only thing it said was that a Non-essential Accessory was Missing. I took a gamble on the Warehouse deal and it paid off. I ordered it on 3/09/10. Pilot was my delivery service, which I was upset about because I seen a lot of people complained about them. On the 11th, I seen it had been "Tendered to Carrier" so I decided to give them a call (got a little impatient :3). I called and in less 2 rings I was talking to a real person, who transfered me to the place that just received the TV. We set up a delivery date on 3/12, 4 days before when Amazon said I would get the TV. He gave me a window from 12-1 for delivery. He showed up at 12 on the dot. There was only him for unloading the TV off the truck. I was disappointed not seeing another person help him since the box was literally 5 foot long. I helped him take it in to the house and I signed for it and he left. I took it out of the box, looks BRAND NEW. It seemed to have all the accessories so I don't know why they put that. This thing was a pain in the patootie putting on the stand by myself but I finally got it. Watching Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs looks STUNNING. The blacks are actually blacks and the white's are so crisp. Some people said they seen a lag without game mode, I admit there is a little delay from the time you hit the controller to the time it hits the TV, but it's not too bad and it is completely gone when you play in game mode. Another person said the Auto-Dimming is horrifying. I have never seen it auto-dim once. This TV is perfect!!!!! Going from a 32 inch CRT to this TV is a huge upgrade and I regret putting it off for so long.

Overall, I am VERY happy I took the risk in getting this TV online. It saved me a lot of money and it furthers my trust in amazon purchases. Don't let a couple of bad reviews deter you from this site. Trust your gut on this one folks, save your money and buy from Amazon!

The overall quality of this Samsung is hard to beat. It is the top of the line.

my friend got a 120hz 46 inch I got this one. I find that when I turn the 240 hz it actually blurs around moving objects. When I turn it down to what would be the 120hz equivalent it looks great. I find paying the difference to get the 240hz is not worth it.

Also I had to hack the tv by going into the service screen to change the delay on the optical audio out because it was delayed so much it was out of sink with lip movement.

I'm very satisfied with the picture on this tv. Not sure I understand all the hype of the new 3D options available out there... I mean, who is going to wear those silly glasses every time they sit down to watch tv?? The LN46B750 has a beautiful picture, lots of features, and is easy to set up. The only thing that could be improved is the sound quality (poor on most Samsungs). But 90% of the time, my audio system is on with the t.v. with great sound, so it's not a show stopper. This model is discontinued, but if you can still find one, get it before it's gone!

I was in the market for a new TV for over four months, and I had read more reviews then I care to admit at this point. When I had finally settled on a couple of TVs for that final list this Samsung was at the top with a Panasonic Plasma coming in at a close second. One review of this TV had me convinced that gaming on this TV was going to be an extreme hassle. For me at least, gaming has not be effected at all by this TV. I am playing a PS3, connected through an HDMI input, and have the TV on "Game Mode". There is no significant lag that I had read about. I am playing very detailed orientated games that require precision and I am hitting my marks. So if you are looking for a TV for gaming and are leery about this one, don't be, it performs maginificently. Apart from gaming, the picture is extremely beautiful. I have not altered the settings drastically, just modified the blur and judder settings for my blu ray movies. There is minimal glare on this TV, but it does not effect your viewing. I only noticed it when my TV was off. I have a small living room with very large windows, so glare was a concern of mine. Also, I should note that I purchased a USED TV off of Amazon's Warehouse Deals, and though I was extremely nervous of getting a DOA TV, my expectations were far surpassed. The TV claimed to have minor cosmetic damage to the back of the unit, but me nor my neighbors can seem to find any type of scratch anywhere on it. It looks brand new. The shipping was very curteous, calling a day ahead of time to schedule a time and then making sure it turned on when they delivered it. I highly recommend this TV if you have a blu ray player and want an amazing picture. Sound is one issue people have complained about and honestly I have not used the TV's speakers once since I got it. I have hooked it up to my own home theatre system like most people I am sure will do. You don't buy a $1400 TV for its speakers. I love great sound, so as far as I am concerned the TV could have come with no speakers. But anyways, it works great and if I have any updates I will be sure to post for anyone curious about this TV.

I purchased this Samsung to replace a 42 inch generic LCD I purchased about 3 years ago. Although not much bigger than my old one, the quality and features blow the old one away! For starters, the picture quality is the best I have ever seen on any television, period. Colors are rich and detailed, far better than what I expected. I also enjoy the fact that using the remote I can change the picture "type" (movie, dynamic, etc). Even though I generally keep it on "standard", I like being able to change it if the show does better on a different setting. Equally nice, is that I can use the remote to change the audio "type" (movie, standard, etc). I found using the "movie" audio setting produces the best results. One last nifty thing is the button on the remote that allows me to adjust the image to fit the screen no matter what the actual size of the content is. For example, with a push of the button, I can have it convert 4:3 show into the full width and heigth of the Samsung TV (note, this feature will only work if what you are watching is coming from a source connected to the TV via one of the four HDMI ports the TV has.
For me, I have a Comcast HD DVR, a Western Digital HD TV Live box, a Roku player, and a PS3 connected to the TV, all via HDMI cables. And all work and look super on this set! It comes with a remote, which in my opinion, is the best remote I have ever had. It's very stylish, has backlighting, buttons are a good size, and fits my hand like a glove.
This unit also has lots of connectivity options: DLNA, Internet, etc. It's one of the main reasons I upgraded to this television. I have not YET tested these features, as I am about to start redoing my home network from scratch where everything will be wired based networking on a gigabit network.
This unit does have ONE downside - The audio it produces is weak and tinny. It really threw me for a loop, as my old generic tv has superior sound compared to this one. The sound is generated in the back of the set. Scenes with music are just barable, but voice scenes are just bad. So much so, that just a few hours ago, I went out to BestBuy and purchased the Samsung Soundbar system. Man, that made all the difference in the world. Now I have movie theatre sound to go with my top quality video.
So the short of all this is: Top quality picture, handy options, great connectivity, but be prepared to provide a seperate audio solution.

As with any major purchase it is wise to do your homework, especially when there are so many choices available to you. I definitely feel I made the right decision when I purchased the Samsung LN46B750.

The impressive contrast ratio and vivid colors that this TV delivers are quite stunning. I recently tested the LN46B750 with the newly released Avatar DVD and was very satisfied with its performance. The true blacks are as brilliant as the deep blues and bright greens. I didn't notice any 'ghosting' or 'pixelation' during scenes with fast motion. Some reviewers have reported seeing a blueish halo in very dark scenes. I have had this TV for two months now and have yet to come across this problem.

[...] does a very thorough review and analysis of the LN46B750. I highly recommend any potential buyers check it out before making a purchase ([...]). I also recommend (http://www.tweaktv.com/tweak-my-tv/calibration-guide/samsung-ln46b750.html) for altering your TV's factory settings. Ultimately I suggest you set them to your liking, but this provides a good starting point. I also recommend Blur reduction at 10 and Judder reduction at 0.

I opted to purchase this TV "Used" from the Amazon Warehouse website in order to save a little money. The description on the TV I selected read, "minor cosmetic damage on back of housing." I've searched high and low and have yet to find a single scratch. I paid $1,036 for a brand new LN46B750! Definitely give it a shot if you want/need to stick to a budget.

Backlit LCDs or LED LCDs are the way to go. It truly provides the best viewing experience possible. You really can't go wrong with the Samsung LN46B750. As always, Amazon delivered the TV before its scheduled delivery date. Free shipping is the way to go!

I am not going to pretend to be a tech junkie or expert but as a common man customer who does plenty of research before buying products, I love this TV. It's clarity and definition are fantastic and simply said, I have loved it!

Okay, I've only had this TV for about 1-2 weeks so this will be a first impressions review. I'm stepping up from Westinghouse TX-42F430S 42-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV that I purchased 2 years ago, so this is a HUGE difference for me.

Picture: This TV is beautiful. Going from 60 Hz to 240 was a huge jump for me and a lot of my shows just look so much smoother now. You can manually adjust these settings too, although I haven't gotten into that much yet. The contrast is insane and the colors are bright and vibrant. I am still in the process of tweaking the colors to my liking, but I know I'll get it soon. Side note: I usually use the THX optimization for TVs and I tried it with this TV and was not happy at all with the outcome. I felt that the default settings of the TV were much better, aside from being overly bright and contrasty. I'm going to give it another shot soon with a buddy so I have a second opinion.

Sound: The sound is one of the main reasons I'm giving this TV a 4 star. The sound is crap. What you hear is certainly clear and crisp and better then my previous TV... However you don't hear everything. For instance, when I'm playing Call of Duty on this TV, I have to keep the volume around 15 (as opposed to the 25-30 for TV watching). When I'm in the menus of the game, I can BARELY hear anything (from the music to the clicking of the menus), but when I get into the game the gunshots and air support are incredibly loud. Watching a movie I have the same problem. The TV doesn't kick out mids well at all. However I have surround sound speakers coming in next week, so this isn't a big deal to me.

Features: This TV comes packed full of widgets and internet games and weird stuff. I honestly haven't played with them much, but I'm sure some people would enjoy them. Between my phone and my laptop and the program I use to run my HTPC, I've got all my internet features covered tenfold.

Menus: Easy to browse and full of great features. There is a game mode which I've really enjoyed for online gaming. It apparently lower the picture quality some and speeds up the refresh rate... Personally I don't see much of a difference in picture quality, but I definitely notice the better refresh rate.

CONS:
- There is NO picture mode button. This is really bothersome to me since I use a Harmony remote and would like to map a key to swap between picture modes easily for movie watching, gaming, or general TV watching. Every other Samsung TV I've come across has an "e.mode" button and I don't understand why they got rid of it. I even borrowed a friend's remote and every single button on his remote worked perfect with my TV aside from the picture mode button.
- In addition to that, there is NO game mode button. It's not even in the picture mode menu, it's in the setup menu (why? who knows). This is another thing I'd love to map to my remote (although it would be easier to include it in the picture modes of the TV, and then only have 1 item to map to a remote), but no dice. What's annoying is that I read on the [...] description that Game Mode is 1 button away, but yea it's not.
- The sound. I already mentioned about this above.
- The screen is high gloss. This is great for the color of the picture... However it certainly reflects any bit of light onto the TV at night. You definitely need to either watch movies in no light, or position some low lights in a spot where the TV will not reflect them.

So far, this is my review on the TV (I may update later on, if my opinions change). I purchased it open box for a STEAL from Best Buy, so I am very happy with it despite the few cons. I walked out of the store with this TV and a 4 year warranty for a grand total of just over $1100, including taxes. I am definitely VERY happy with the purchase. If I bought it for full price, I may have thought twice about some of the cons.

First off, i'm not going to berate Samsung quality as all my previous LCDs have been Samsung and they've worked wonderfully. I'm extremely disappointed that this tv only lasted about 3 months before i got the infamous "tv turns on and off repeatedly" issue. I spent months researching my next TV only to be out of luck during the Memorial day weekend, the TV failed me on Friday (what luck!). When the TV is working, it is GORGEOUS. The fact that i can plug in my external HDD and play MKV files straight from the USB port is a real Godsend. I really regret buying this from Amazon and not somewhere like Best Buy, where i can walk in and get a replacement on the spot. I'm really torn about the TV, it is by far the best TV i have ever owned but i'm deeply disappointed it lasted for only 3 months. Samsung has been great with me and they're going to come and pick it up in 2 days, i would recommend this tv if you can get it at Best Buy where they would exchange it if something happens to it.

I looked at a LOT of HD TVs before I bought one, and long ago decided I wanted 120Hz because the 60Hz ones were so blurry during motion. I had decided I liked the Samsung ones feature-wise, but didn't at all like the touch of red bezel on the models I liked.
I watched the prices and features of TVs for over a year.
When I saw Amazon's price for this TV, and it had 240Hz, and was touch of grey ... I just couldn't wait any longer.
I bought this TV as my first HD TV to replace an old 32". So I can now watch the digital and HD versions of the network stations I get with my very basic cable.
They look great, but I will say that the sound from the internal speakers isn't great.
Fortunately I always have my TV hooked up to my 5.1 surround stereo for watching movies, so it isn't an issue for me.
It looks awesome watching DVD movies, but today I watched my first blu-ray movie ... and it is so sharp that at times I'm distracted because it is so easy to pickup on details that make you see that the movie is filmed on a set. I guess I'll eventually get used to that.
Another thing I don't like is that the bezel is soft plastic ... my cat likes to chew on things like cardboard boxes, and for some reason he is attracted to the TV, there are now scratches in
the corner.
One last thing that is annoying, I live in a rural area and the power flickers sometimes during wind or storms. I have it on a VERY good surge suppressor, but this TV turns itself on when the power flicks off and on quickly. Not fun to be woken up at night because I was last watching the news (i.e. volume turned up as opposed to 0 volume when watching movie and using stereo).
