The best you will ever watch... i was in shock how good it was when I say it for the first time and I have watched 3d movies on many other brands. Hands down the best

I personally haven't seen the 3D on this TV yet but I had done a lot of research on this particular model before I ordered it. It is arriving tomorrow. The 3D quality on this TV is one of the best available out there. Ghosting and crosstalk at almost nonexistent. If you are not looking for a 4K tv, this is your best choice among 1080

I have not used the 3d feature, but projector is good. I am using for a golf simulator, so not on the best screen, but picture looks good.

I think the 3D is great, I also have 55 Samsung and the projector blows it away as far as 3D goes. You will not be disappointed. I'm viewing on a 106 inch screen.

I just got mine last night... viewing angles aren't as great as LCD's, that's for sure... left and right as well as up and down. I really didn't appreciate just how big this thing was going to be til it came in. I have it up too high and you can notice the difference pretty easily from having your eyes on level with the center of the screen and being above/below that point. I have a chair that is about 45 degrees and you can also notice the picture dim compared to sitting straight in front, but its not too bad. I wouldn't want to sit at much more of an angle than that though. I'd say its got about 90 degrees of solid viewing and then it starts noticeably degrading. You're definitely going to want to sit as close to head-on to this thing as you can get with your eye-level near the center though. I think the up/down viewing angle is worse. Very happy though overall... Kind of shocked what I got for my money. I was looking to get the biggest best TV I could for under $1k and frankly, I ended up with more than I bargained for.

I have the 40 inch version of this Smart TV with 3D and am quite pleased. I have not used the feature permitting the computer screen to be seen on the TV but it's there and now that my taxes are in, plan to watch movies. Also taking a Great Courses lesson on Philosophy and will watch it on TV. Had a 22" Samsung TV and it performed so well I stayed with Samsung. Bob C

It's a nice tv for the price. If you lived in nyc, I'd give you the 3d kit... Free'

I have the 100" airbright 3d it works decent I have a great viewing angle. Every time someone comes over to watch the game or movies they all love it. I do have some sort of image imperfection on the screen. Its only noticable on a white screen projected. I did send back one screen because of it and it was the same type of imperfection on the new screen. The problem is you won't see it until the screen is fully put together. I said forget it the second time around it was not that major to have to restrech another screen..overall I would give this screen a 7.5 out of 10. Its the best you will find for the money.

I haven't got any 3D glasses yet. I honestly don't have any idea yet. But, I like the TV and very satisfied with it. Thanks & good luck with your future purchase.

Just got mine today @ BB for $2K with no tax and 36 months same as cash. Picture looks great. Finally had to retire my 10yr old Pioneer 58" RPTV as we were at its mercy as to when we got to watch it. Decided not to pay the premium for 3D. Had my eye on this set for about 6 months. Just happened to get serious about it and they happened to have one in stock locally. Now I've got to get a Blue Ray player. Cox HD is looking great right now though. Calibration came free with it as well. We'll see in a couple months whether that is worth anything.

Really counts on how much 3D do you want. I have watched several Blue Ray HD disk and there is great depth when running it in 3D mode. Nothing comes out of the screen at you but there is depth on the screen. So to me that is a select kind of 3D. I really enjoy my games on Xbox 360 have come alive some are 3D games some are not, yes I can a difference in the games that say 3D versus regular games but even the regular games have depth now that they didn't and to me, looks really cool. A very inexpensive way to change what you are seeing. It does claim that slow viewing IE: news events thing like that are not all that good and they are right but who wants to see their local weatherman in 3D anyway? I have been impressed but remember this is not movie going 3D it is adding depth to the clip nothing pops out or floats around your room like real 3D does. I have not been disappointed does exactly what Its says it will.

Great no complaints from my perspective, the tv is fabulous but again that's only my opinion. Hope it helps! Ps I would buy it again

We have absolutely no problem looking at the TV from either side. Great color. Honestly cable provider makes a difference. Initially had Comcast & I thought there was something wrong with the TV. Switched to Verizon FIOS....OMG....everyone thinks most channels look like 3D.....great TV....true value for money!!!!!

I haven't seen a brand new 3D for this year. The ones I have seen are a couple years old, but with this one its great quality and you don't need powered glasses like some other models. However normal HD bounces btw 720/1080 and is not Always without the 'streaky blur'. If mainly 3D viewing, I say it's worth it, if u can handle a few glitches-but can maybe be repaired with the perfect settings.

All true... No 3D features... It is not a smart TV so internet port... Only 2 HDMI ports.... I didn't need these features... I have them my other Samsung Plasma TV and never use them... I was after screen size only... Samsung has the greatest picture quality I've seen excluding 4K...

There are active glasses and passive glasses. This TV has passive glasses (like the movie theater) they don't need batteries like active glasses. TV's require one or the other. The picture is very similar with both types. 1080p is the highest resolution you will get with 3D without paying 5000+. So this TV does have good 3D, I bought it brand new in 2011. The only complaint I have is the pixilation occurs once in a while. I paid 2700 for it brand new, so under a 1000, this TV is a good deal. 3D is the same since it came out, the 4k TV's with 3D are the exception and they are expensive. LED is better than plasma, but more expensive. The viewing angle (how far to the right or left) is good with this TV. There are active glasses and passive glasses.

D. Reese,Thanks for the feedback. I more than appreciate it!I decided not to purchase the UN55B8500. I agree, 3D is worth waiting for. I saw the demo at Best Buy, and I must say, I'm pretty impressed. One a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the best), I would put the 3D experience in at about a 7 or an 8. I wasn't completely blown away, however, I was impressed enough to wait until the UN55C8000. Plus, with the free 3D Starter Kit with the purchase of the 3D TV and the 3D Blu-Ray player, I really think it makes sense to go with the 3D option. The sales guy at Best Buy said the free 3D Starter Kit promotion starts on 3/21/2010, and that the UN55C8000 should be available in early April.Thanks! D. Reese,Thanks for the feedback.
