My only concern with this or any led/led is viewing angle. Could anyone render their opinion on this for this particular set? Graciaus

I have had this set for 3 months. The picture quality is excellent. We have the TV in a room that has big windows that allow a lot of light into the room. The screen is bright enough that we do not have to close the blinds. I have watched TV from several different viewing angles and the picture remains excellent. You would only have a problem if you were trying to view from an extreme angle. I hope that helps.

I think you're refering to LCD TVs.LED TVs solved the issue you are refering to. I have an LED TV and if you look at the screen from an angle even close to a 90 degree angle the brightness doesn't change much, and my TV is over 7 years old.LED TVs is basically more advanced LCD TVs.

I've had this model for quite some time. There is a little degradation from an angle but it's not bad at all. I can't imagine that anyone would position a chair at a viewing angle that would make it unacceptable - it'd have to be practically beside the TV.

Viewing angle is very good when it's hung on a wall. Mine is about fifteen feet away and It looks good from every seat. Outstanding picture.

The viewing angles are phenomenal. Clear picture from pretty much anywhere in the room.

I sit fairly close to the screen--about 8-10 feet away. Picture is excellent out to about 20 degrees on either side. It begins to wash out from there but is still reasonably good out to 45 degrees. I have been very happy with this TV.

Emphasize: "non LED screen"! Um, don't people looking at this set want an LED back light screen?LED is a major plus.

It's a dim blue LED. It shines upwards, not sideways. I doubt it's a problem for you.

honestly you won't even notice it. the LED indicators aren't that bright. i thought it was going to bother me but it's not even an issue for me or my wife.

I would like to know this too. Is the screen excessively glossy? I know on some of the higher end ones they make the display very shiny which is incredibly annoying if you have even a dimly lit room. This set is priced in the middle range so I'm wondering how the gloss on the screen is. It's so hard to tell in the stores because they have the screens in a dark area and angled just so.

Hi, Thanks for your question. These are safe to look at, although whether LED, Fluorescent, or Incandescent the brighter the light and the longer looking can temporary bother anyone's eyes. Sincerely Rocky Kamrock Lights

The viewing angle is fine and is better than 45 degrees from the side. Never has been an issue. I really recommend this one - it is so easy to use. The ones that you have to push minutes by one minute at a time are much more time consuming.

Hey Donald, I just replied to you on another one of these discussions and will do likewise on this one. Regarding the viewing angle, do any other 8 series owners think it... well... sucks? If I move so much as 5 degrees one way or another, the colors (particularly the blacks) start to fade. Wondering if this is one of the concessions for the 8 series' slim profile.

That sounds strange to me. Mine does none of that as far as I can tell. Perhaps I'm not as perceptive as others. So I may be wrong. But when I play 3D movies or games and others are sharing the experience I've never had anyone complain, and they are all over the room at various angles. If mine were doing those things I would not be happy at all. I also own an LG passive 3D led television. It has none of those issues either. I hope that you can find some resolution. Good Luck.

I will, and like I said previously, the pcture quality is very much improved over the 55C7000, the "pin point dimming" is what makes this set an improvement. I will keep this up to date once I receive mine. Thanks.

Hi GLG, You can adjust the brightness for the display of this device that will suit your taste. Dave

Peter, I've used these bulbs with threads up, down and sideways and have noticed no difference in performance. I have never encountered an LED with orientation sensitivity.

I would rate the viewing angle...or the ability to view the numbers clearly from multiple angles as good, but not great. This is not helped by the fact that the screen is bordered by a flange-like edge that leaves it recessed cutting off light. That said I have been happy with the unit.

I could get technical here, but rest assured it is a LED TV, and from what I've seen (I own it) and heard (from others on the web), it is currently the best 55" inch LED TV you can buy right now.Nice choice. Sit back and enjoy it. I get nothing but compliments from everyone who has seen its' display.

I have the 47" and I love it. The stock speakers are very loud, and the visual quality is great. Being an LED, it looks really good even in a bright room, although if it's behind a window you'll still have to worry about glare. I was annoyed with how it makes shows and movies look with the Motion Blur, but you can easily turn that off; it does help make games look better though so I turn it back on for gaming.

they look exactly the same; all are from spec-d tuning, so i would say they are just different prices from the vendors. if you think these are cool without the LED's, go for it, cause i guarantee that within a few months all of the LED's will either be flickering or out altogether, and they are not directly replaceable.

I can only can give my opinion but, in any past experience I have had regarding LED displays like this is not good.Generally, you would have to replaceThe whole display module.... But I might be wrong. :0/
