Worth the extra $600 for the 240mh? I'm debating between this 240mh and the 120mh. The price difference is $600! Anyone comment on whether they feels it's worth the extra $$?

I have three computers each running different Microsoft operating systems - Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. I can connect to each from my Samsung UN55B8000 or my UN40B7000 TV. The trick to getting DLNA to work is to share out through Media Player on your computer the content you want to view on the TV. Actaully DLNA works very well. Note: I am using a wired netowrk connection not wireless but this shuld not be a factor if you have the TV on your netowrk either wirelessly or via CAT-5 cable through the RG-45 connector on the TV.

I don't believe so. The Link-Stick will give you acess to You tube, flickr, blockbuster on demand, yahoo, quizmasters, etc. I only use the you tube and weather widgets, the rest are rather lame and load very slowly. Blockbuster on demand won't work If you have a mac, and neither will the DLNA connectivity. I connect my laptop via HDMI for netflix and internet use.

I bought UN46B8000 last week, I'm loving it. I need to know if the internet on TV has search engine? or we have to use webpages that come with TV??any idea??

I looked at both the UN46B7000 and the UN46B8000 and to me the 240mhz is noticably smoother during action scenes. The 8500 is the best LCD picture I have seen but not worth 2X the price of the 8000 series. I got my UN46B8000 during a previous promotion that ended on 11/7/09 for $1889. The Link-Stick makes WiFi internet acess a snap.

Hey T. McAnaney,Yes, when I compared specs, I too looked and said, why should I pay more for an item that has the same specs? What is so different about this new model. I even went to web sites that had incorrect information on the specs of the TH-42PX600U, and the TH-42PX75U had the specs of the TH-42PX600U. So I ended up buying the TH-42PX600U. Even from what I heard that the 75U is supposed to have 1080p, versus the 1080i, I did not believe it would be worth the additional cost.

Let me put it this way....Electricity in the USA is 60Hz. When you turn a light on, it actually has a flickering power. DO you see light bulbs flickering on and off? OF course not. The human eye see's 60Hz as "always on". So then what does 120Hz do? It may clear up video a little, but nothing more, and your results may vary. (Everyone's eyes are different). So enter 240 Hz. .... YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY DIFFERENCE FROM 120 TO 240hz. Period. It is so far beyond the human visual capacity its not funny. So 240 Hz is a MARKETING GIMMIC to charge you more.

where did you buy it for such a low price? whats hhgregg? my curiosity gets me when i see on the samsung website the MSRP for the 860 still at over 3k and the new c8000 at 2899. you would think the c8000 would be higher... unless they think the 860 is a better TV.

The Bad reviews are for the 60 version... not the 120 version. You get the same 2 year warranty when you purchase it on Amazon... however you do not get the 90 day return period as you do with the manufacturer. The 120 is much better than the previous version. I purchased it 3 weeks ago and have had absolutely no problems.

Mr. Scholten,Since you represent the mfr, may I suggest you work with Amazon to present this information on the listings for each product. I thought that the 110 might be a replacement for the 100. Your comment explained the single difference.

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.

I do know JNH makes zero EMF rated units that are about double in price of these units. I am still trying to decide which brand to buy. Some brands, like MPS Global are $4000 to $8000. What to do??

My feeling was the 4065 was at the sweet spot on price vs. performance. Newer models are already out...69 (matte) and 71 (glossy) are 120Hz models, but $400 more. The 81 is the top model, but is $900 more. With mixed reviews and people turning the 120Hz feature off, I decided it wasn't worth the extra cash.

I paid $179.00 plus shipping on a big special new not Ref.-NOT worth over $400 to me because I could never get my wife to use it. .thinking about putting it on Craigs List. the one without a cord I hear is pretty good-bottom line- not as good as a lot of Kenmores that are a lot less $$$. . hope helps you make a decision. . .cd

240 hz refreshes much faster than 120 so better for action or sports. No one is broadcasting in 4K maybe in the future but for now save your money.

Use 120Hz to watch movies and regular TV. The 240Hz is for watching sports with high motion. It really comes down to personal preference once you watch for a while you will figure out what bothers you about both rates. The new TVs allow you to turn the features off in the menu structure. There is only about a 30% improvement from 120Hz to 240Hz. You have to experience it to make a decision. Go to a big box store and make the change in the menu to allow you to see the difference.

Hey there! I'm in the same predicament also? I just purchased the 32m3000 series for the "cheap" price of $649 when it was available at other non competitor retailers for $550-575. (I wanted the 4 year protection plan the cheaper guys didn't offer). It's a gift for father so it's not opened yet. The only thing the store assistant said was that one model's from 2007 and the other is 2008. He didn't want to lie to me about tech knowledge he didn't know about.

There's a promotion going for the LN46B750. Amazon is currently selling it for $1,999.99. Input coupon code, "SAMTV300" and it drops to $1,699.99. I'm pissed because yesterday I picked up an LN46A860 from Crutchfield for $1,579.99 with 1% FW cashback. It already shipped, bleh. Specs wise, seems like everything is the same except that the LN46B750 introduces 240Hz motion and Internet@TV (Yahoo!, YouTube, Flickr, etc.). Also, the LN46B750 has a charcoal ToC while the LN46A860 has a dark blue one. Moreover, I haven't come across a review that details the performance of the 240Hz motion.

In all reality, 1600MHz is about as good as it gets. You've got the stability and pretty close to the speed of the other speeds. The only real difference where that 2400 is actually noticeable compared to the 1600 is when you're benchmarking. But for day-to-day operations and even high performance tasks, they'll perform pretty close to the same. I'd stick with the 1600 for stability and price.

I have the 55" LM6700 not the 47" but I have noticed that it does appear to be 60hz instead of the advertised 120hz. This doesn't bother me too much because I dislike the way 120 hz. looks. TruMotion is horrible.

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.
