What year is the TV? Is it 120Hz or 240Hz? The product description does not match the product name.

I just got it a few weeks ago, so I assume it is a 2012 model and it's 120 Hz. I don't know why the product description doesn't match the name. The product number is correct. So unless something had changed in the last few weeks, it should be the same. The only thing I can think of is that, when I bought it , it came from a third party. I see now it comes diretly from Amazon. As far as I can see the description mateches what I have. Hope this helps.

The TV does NOT support over 60 Hz! I've tried many methods to get the TV to display more than 60 Hz using my high-end gaming PC, but nothing has worked. I've talked with two Samsung customer support representatives and both have confirmed that this TV only supports up to a 60 Hz refresh rate! I specifically bought this TV for the 120 Hz refresh rate and now, a little more than a year later, I've just discovered that this product title and description are FALSE ADVERTISING.

"Who Dat" is correct in his statement on 2-23-13 that this is a 120hz with the 240hz clear/full motion plus. We were fooled by the Samsung advertising on the same TV which stated 120hz clear/full motion on the box. It was only 60hz. We don't use the 240hz "plus" function. We don't see the benefit.

The EH6000 series is Samsung's 2012 lineup. The TVs are 120Hz, but advertise 240Hz Full Motion Plus (this is one of many options available to select in the picture settings menu). In my opinion, the Full/Auto Motion Plus feature is a gimmick, and I do not use it. FYI - I own the 60EH6000.

What he means by "true" 120Hz technology is that you aren't getting 120 Hz from your source, the TV just creates it, kind of like upconverting an old DVD, you dont get "True" 1080p because the DVD is only 480p. You also don't get true 120Hz because the DVD is 24Hz or 30Hz. So, technically speaking, right now I don't know of any way you can get a true 120Hz picture other than maybe a very high end PC if there are any that support it. That is also assuming that the TV would accept it as input, many TVs are strange like that.

You are very misinformed Watcher. 120hz refers to the panel refresh rate and whether you are watching 30fps video or 24fps movies it still relies on the 120hz refresh rate to display images. As JVAN has shared with us, Plasma TVs don't rely on that technology, it's an LCD thing.

120 Hz according to this article: http://tv.toptenreviews.com/flat-panel/lcd/sony/sony-kdl40w3000-reviews-1379.htm

It is 60hz. I can certainly understand your confusion. Please, read the rest of the responses for more info. SonyStyle was very disappointly and cleverly not very clear about this feature in this tv, which is unfortunate for a company of its stature.

I don't know what the panel is but the tv is 240Hz. It is the most clear picture I've ever seen.

The refresh rate is actually (probably, hard to get a definitive answer) 120hz; Samsung uses a technology they call "clear motion" to provide what they consider the equivalent of a 240hz refresh rate. Some other manufacturers do likewise (using either the same or different technology) to claim a larger refresh rate; for example LG calls theirs "TruMotion". The technology is beyond me, but if you'd like more details do a search for "refresh rate", or ask (in a search engine) a question like "what is Clear Motion refresh rate". I know CNET.com does a fairly detailed explanation. Both they and Consumer Reports cautions on taking these claims at face value as in their reviews they say they commonly see some tv's w/lower claimed refresh rates having a better pic (less fast action blur) than other tv's w/higher claimed refresh rates. It sucks, but we're stuck with this goofy arrangement and at the mercy of the manufacturers claims.

You need to set your TV's setting advance resolution to off. Then you should be able to turn 240hz on.

Amazon is wrong. Other sites has this @ 60. If you do a search on the LCD it will say 60Hz

The one at Sam's: Samsung 52" 60hz is for 1598. Great picture. No problems with audio.

120Hz, based on the independent assessment here: http://www.rtings.com/info/fake-refresh-rates-samsung-clear-motion-rate-vs-sony-motionflow-vs-lg-trumotion

Excellent question! My invoice (purchased late Jan.) also states 120Hz, but I just looked on the back of my set and it clearly indicates 60Hz. Interesting.

NO! 120Hz is a marketing gimmick! Don't fall for it because no one watches movies like that! That fps is meant for recorded video, NOT MOVIES! Put it this way, do movies in theatres appear 120FPS? No. All movies are displayed in 24FPS as they were meant to be. This TV will put ANY other HDTV to shame!!!EDIT: Okay, okay... I'll just add that I THINK 120Hz is a "gimmick". Others find it very useful and engaging.

The lable on the back is labled 120v 60 HZ and it is not switchable to 220V. When I get the TV to a repair tech, I will bring this up. Maybe this TV is a 120V shell with Dual voltages inside and it is set to 220V.

Just from looking quickly, I think it is simply that this tv is 240MHZ where mine is 120 if I remember correctly. The only other thing might be that it is a newer model. Unsure of that though. Other than that they look very similar and I have been extremely happy with my television. Some things to work through, but that is the joy of technology and newer technology. The smart features have been very cool and great for entertainment.

I would think that it's 60hz because of the super low response time. Most of your new HDTV's have at least a 120 and in some cases 240hz refresh rate which is what makes their response times anywhere from 10-18 ms. Doesn't seem like a lot until you play on a BENQ which has a 1 ms response time.
