There are two "versions" of this TV at the moment. The models that have "900A" in the number are PASSIVE, the "850A" are ACTIVE. Sony had announced they will be shipping the "B" version of both of these "soon" and also a "950" line. they did announce what each of the 3 new lines will be in 3D (passive/active) but they won't be available for a while and you can boodle that up...

1st answer is Yes thet are active rechargeable 3d glasses. I have Sharp glasses and they work great. I did see cheaper aftermarket glasses online but I didnt want to take a chance with a product that may not be as good. I suggest you get them from a store that you can return them to if your not satisfied. Good Luck!

Active 3D glasses. I purchased the Sain Sonics because they were a reasonable price. The brand hasn't seemed to make a difference in function. The big thing to know is that you require a 3D converter to make the projector visible to the blu-ray player. They run about $200 from Optoma and Viewsonic. Totally worth it though because it's still less than an actual 3D projector, running over a thousand dollars.

I don't know what you mean by active, but the glasses that came with the TV are standalone glasses, with no connections or power needed. They're just like the ones you would use at a movie theater.

No glasses were included . I purchased a minimum 5 from a place on Alababa.com for the price of 3. They need to be active glasses . Ask specifically for benq mw523 wxga equivalent glasses Marvin. Took less than a week to deliver.

@Amazon incorrectly lists this as having passive 3D capability in their comparison chart to other Toshiba models of the same type, but different sizes.

This is one feature of the TV that I have not used in a while. I personally think that it is just a novelty. I still have the 55" TV I bought and it is still working fine. I chose the passive 3d because you can use the glasses from the 3d movies you would watch in theaters. The active 3d shutter glasses are expensive and needs to be recharged.

The package comes with one pair of 3D glasses, a felt holding pouch, and a small replacement battery. This is not the rechargeable model. Also be careful with the price. They had a price advertised and I was charged three times the amount each for 4 pairs .

Yes. These are ACTIVE 3D glasses and an internet search of your TV demonstrates that the TV used ACTIVE 3d technology.

Passive 3D is similar to what you experience in the movie cinema, in fact your cinema glasses(IMAX/RealD 3D) can be used at home on these television for 3D at home as well... the glasses are lightweight and affordable and doesn't require charging like the expensive $100 pair of active 3D glasses. Active 3D is said to provide a bit crisper resolution however as alluded to, the glasses are over $100 per pair and use an LCD flicker type technology to "actively" sync with the tv and give you 3D... this however can cause headaches for most persons, especially if worn for an extended period. these classes carry a chargeable battery and are bigger and heavier(therefore more uncomfortable) than passive 3D Passive 3D is similar to what you experience in the movie cinema, in fact your cinema glasses(IMAX/RealD 3D) can be used at home on these television for 3D at home as well... the glasses are lightweight and affordable and doesn't require charging like the expensive $100 pair of active 3D glasses.

Not sure, but i do known that the words"active" or"pasive"are what to look for, passive= no bateries required so if your tv requires the glasses to connect to the TV then you need " active" glasses. Hope this helps

This is correct sir! Keep in mind this is passive 3d tech (same as movie theater) vs active (glasses are much more expensive) that being said I did my research, I could not be happier with this purchase it's an amazing deal!!! get ready to have your corneas blown!!

The key is that these glasses are for "passive 3d". Both of those products you mention are projectors and as you said are "3d ready". 3d ready is not 3d. It requires another step and another product. If that other product that is being used with your projector is "passive 3d" then these should work with any passive 3d system.

One. My Panasonic 3D TV is about 3 years old and requires passive glasses. I originally bought 3 pairs of 3rd party glasses and replaced two pairs recently; the price had dropped by a little more than half in that time. Due to the price drop, I bought a pair of Panasonics because they were no longer selling at a big premium; they seem to perform better and hold up better than the 3rd party brand. 3rd party would be cheaper but pay close attention to customer ratings.

Vizio has two kinds of 3D glasses, passive and active. The passive ones are relatively cheap and work with a lot of models of 3D TVs. These can be used in a movie theater. On the other hand, certain Vizio TVs require the active type of glasses that have to be charged and they actually communicate with the TV to provide a very accurate 3D experience. These glasses are not cheap and only work with a few particular models of Vizio TVs. They do not work in a movie theater, obviously.

Out of the box this PJD requires Active 3D glasses. No converter is necessary. Passive glasses won't work. Modern active glasses are as light as passive ones anyway.
