I received this TV in good physical condition. The sound was good but the LCD picture did not work. It’s a defective product and I am very sad to have spent $1,450.00 on it. I have never had problems with any Amazon product before. I will never buy any type of TV again from Amazon. I really got stuck with a Lemon. I took the TV to a Samsung repair shop and had the TV repaired. It does work great and I do enjoy the 3d video system. I think it is much better to purchase this item from a nearby physical store where such items can be returned without additional cost. The repair cost was only $35.00 which was much cheaper than sending it back to Amazon. It is a really neat product dispite the initial problem. I’ll change my one star rating to a four star rating due to the fact that it is now working beyond my expectations.

Im writing a very short review as of now and will update it as I use it more and more. To start, the TV appearance is stunning as one would expect with a Samsung TV. I am also becoming a fan of the new stands on the 2010 series TV’s. The TV was much thinner than I anticipated as well. Obviously not as thin as an LED screen but its the thinnest LCD I’ve seen. The 2D picture is amazing for an LCD. If you have ever seen the Samsung LN46B750, it is very similar to that. DirectTV HD channels are amazing and my Sony PS3 Blu Ray player displays a very good picture. I calibrated the movie mode with the calibration settins on the LN46B750 settings on CNET and it looks pretty dang good. If you are a gamer, make sure you turn game mode on otherwise you will notice a lag. The built in media player is pretty cool as well. I plug my Ipod into it and play it off the TV. I am still waiting on my 3d blu ray player and glasses yet so I’m sorry I dont have any input on the 3d part of the TV yet. I am also going to buy a Samsung Linkstick to use the internet widgets so I will update on that as well. Overall, this set is a very good 3d TV at the price. Sadly the price has gone up on this set to $1529. I got mine for 1314.68 but it is still worth every penny.

SHORT AND SWEET:
If you aren’t already sitting on a 1080p HDTV or are looking for the affordable angle into the upcoming 3D ready technology GO FOR IT!
Into:
I hadn’t taken the plunge into HDTV’s yet and was still watching on a 32″ JVC tube television. I’ll be a dork and admit that after seeing Avatar in 3D and with an upcoming birthday, I started researching the 3D ready televisions. Early reviews of the Samsung line were positive and only critical on the high end screens at an A/V level I won’t be concerned with as an HDTV neophyte. Upon seeing Samsung’s line up I had noticed the LN46C750 was the only non LED or Plasma offering, making it pretty much the most affordable 3D ready television out there. The info I found said the C750 should be like the B750 that CNET thought was quite good. Once the product showed up at Amazon, I went to big box store to check similar LCD’s as well as try the 3D display they had setup. Being impressed by both I bought the LN46C750 the next day. I got the tv for less (killer deal) than it’s going for now, but this price is still only about $3-400 more than a straight LCD of equivalent statistics.
Delivery & Setup:
The television came a few days earlier than expected! Box was undamaged and everything was in order when I pulled the set out. Having looked at LED LCD televisions in person that are sub 1″ deep, I still find this television looks beautiful even with its portly (kidding) 3.2″ depth. I have it set up on it’s cool looking “X” stand on the old televisions garbage entertainment center (to be remedied in the future.) Directions are straight forward, I plugged in my cable, power source, and a ethernet cord–the WIS09ABGN wireless LAN adapter came later. Auto setup found all of my channels, set the time on the TV and updated the pre-installed apps.
Picture (Incomplete):
I mostly have left the picture settings alone, other than obviously picking home use over store display. Standard def. Cable doesn’t look great, but I was expecting that as I’ve upped my PC monitor before and gone through the same issues. The free over air/cable HD channels are looking NICE! Unfortunately I do not have a Blu-ray player yet, and so I can’t test really high end content. What I can say is I have one of the cheapest Target-special DVD players out there and STILL standard DVD’s are looking great. SO good in fact that on some I have to turn down/off the Auto Motion Plus settings to avoid that re-shot-old-movie-with-high-end-home-video-camera look. The “mexican soap opera” look if you will. The exception is my animated selections. I tossed in Finding Nemo and it looks flat out amazing! Black levels (people seem to crow about this a lot on reviews) look good to me. With no signal in the lower 2 corners there is a bit of what I guess is “flashlighting” but nothing I find significant at all and when those parts of the screen are actually receiving signal I don’t see it at all.
WIS09ABGN Wireless LAN Adapter:
Setup is no harder than getting a laptop to find your wireless router. Just plug it in after the television is on, and it will bring you through entering the password. Works excellent and given the shape of the back of this screen it fits in and won’t be a problem even if you were to hang the set flush to a wall.
Apps (Incomplete): I have only really used the Netflix app as of yet. I have found that the HD streaming content looks great, and the SD streaming content goes from very good down to “meh” or even a bit jerky on screen. Given the HD content looks so good, I feel I can eliminate wireless bandwith issues. I think it is just a varying quality in the SD content they offer.
Sound:
I didn’t anticipate running that much sound from the set, but since I’m streaming Netflix I find myself using the TV speakers more often than expected. I could use an Audio Out to my receiver, but I’ve found the sound to be surprisingly good (maybe it’s that chubby 3.2″ dept giving more room for the speakers).
3D Effects (Incomplete):
Sorry no review content here yet. I can’t afford the 3D glasses right now–I didn’t get the package deal as I’m getting a PS3 as my Blu-Ray player/game station. I will say I tried the rechargeable Samsung glasses at the big box store with Monsters V Aliens and while not a theater experience, the effect was still very cool even with all of the glare of the ceiling gym lights they had on.
I will update my review as I try/figure out new things. Let me know if there’s something specific you want to know from my not-expert-but-very-attentive viewpoint.
EDIT: changed the final “term” of my viewpoint.

I was a little skeptical on buying a TV online. I always want to test what I buy, but after a city search and stopping everywhere I couldn’t find the LCD 3d tv. After checking the 700 series of LED Samsung, I thought it was amazing, but I didn’t want to spent almost $3000, not really. After doing my research an understanding the technology of LED, LCD and Plasma. LCD was sufficient and on my price range. This is an amazing TV I received it yesterday from Amazon, and must say they were great delivering it and it has not a scratch! As soon as replaced my old 46in 1080p Toshiba for this new Samsung the difference was astounding!!! The image is amazing and the internet features are even better! I can stream my Netflix and Napster!! I must say this tv is worth it without the 3d feature, it’s a winner with this feature. The 3d I didn’t tested it on an actual 3d show but I did use the feature to change 2d to 3d. It works great for video games since it gives it depth but it makes it a little darker, I need to change a couple of my settings. ( I am still waiting for my 3d blueray so I can test the 3d properly – I live in Nashville half the city was under water last weekend) The only thing I would say it’s a disappointment it’s that Samsung does not connect with my MAC only connects with PC but it was advertised and I knew before I bought it, also it doesn’t read my Iphone on Media Play but I also knew this beforehand. If they could allow me to synch with my mac computer this would be the best TV I’ve ever bought for this amazing price

This is my first purchase of a flat panel television, I spent a long time deciding on what to spend my money on. I can say that I am very happy with my decision to buy this television.
Although I have only seen the 3-d effect on the Monsters vs Aliens blu-ray, it is really incredible, very entertaining and mesmerizing.
I am looking forward to additional availability of 3-d televised sporting events like World Cup soccer this summer.
The one “negative” I would say is the auto-motion option, the “Spanish Soap Opera” effect is kind of off-putting when watching a movie. I have yet to watch a sporting event with auto-motion engaged so I am reserving judgment on that option until I do. Like the first reviewer, I turned auto-motion off, and think the picture quality of movies without that option is terrific.
I am updating this review now that I have watched the NBA playoffs with auto-motion engaged, and I can say that it definitely makes a positive difference in the picture.
Another nice thing about auto-motion, it has this great feature that allows the viewer to view half the screen in auto-motion and half without, thus making it much easier to compare which view is preferable. I see this as adding to the plus column when making a decision on whether to purchase.
Additionally, the shipping and delivery were flawless, the items were delivered in the timeframes that they were promised, and the person who delivered the tv was polite and courteous.
For the price, I think this television is definitely worth it, I am happy I waited to pull the trigger on a flat panel purchase until now.
