Awesome TV if the right picture setting are used & here they are, May 28, 2011

Use the picture settings in my Review listed at the end and the Samsung un55d7000 will look awesome. First off I notice major black light bleed out of the box & even after tweaking the TV on my own until I found the right settings from a other users.

What I really like about this tv is that my playstation 3 is synced with the tv. My tv come’s on when the playstation is turned on and I can control my ps3 with my Samsung remote nice feature. The tv is nice a thin not very heavy. The 2d to 3d conversion is total crap some stuff looks good but for the most part it’s a BIG gimmick. Movies & stuff filmed in 3D look amazing sometimes it’s a hit & miss. So far my favorite 3d movies are : ( Monsters Vs Aliens ) ( avatar ) ( Despicable me ) Resident evil looked like crap & I really didn’t like monster house. I am hoping the studios will improve 3D filming and make live action films pop out more. I tried some playstation 3 games in 3d I like the idea but WoW it really makes your…

Backlight bleeding – Not and expert review but will help you a lot, April 15, 2011

By 

Ricardo Villamar Pazmino “Rivip” (WEST PALM BEACH, FL, US) – See all my reviews

  

I’m going to cut down to the chase.

The TV has so many good features (especially design) that are too many to list, thus, I will focus on the two things I have encountered that I know someone else might have experienced or will experience and are rather disappointing…but don’t lose your hopes just yet!

1) Backlight bleeding – My TV came set up for ‘store’ usage mode, instead for ‘home’, which increases the bleeding drastically.

Changing to ‘home’ is quite challenging so you have to read the manual. After I changed the usage mode to ‘home’, it decreased considerably but was still noticeable.

I visited some forums, websites, and some even advised to put pressure on the screen with my fingers (until I see the screen changing colors), etc, but nothing seemed to work.

I decided to contact Samsung support and they advised me to change PICTURE MODE to ‘STANDARD’ and adjust the ‘BACKLIGHT’ to the value of ’7′. The support guy/girl mentioned to…

Great TV… If there is no flaw., March 31, 2011

I just got the TV in today, and from I experience so far is that this TV is amazing.

Black level is great! One of the best I seen so far.

Internet connection is great on the TV. Very useful for watching Netflix.

The qwerty remotes that came with my TV is very useful for web browsing, but don’t expect the browser to be like normal computer browser because it is very bad, slow, hard to navigate, and cumbersome.

For gaming, in my opinion, there is no lag if you turn off the picture enhancements options, and also turning on the game mode. I would say the lag on the TV would be probably somewhere between 30-50ms.

3D is great! I watched Shrek 3D, and it’s just stunning. A major improvement from last year model. I probably will buy Tron 3D, and see it on the TV soon.

Cons: HDMI input is located on the side. Clouding & Flashlighting that can be seen in dark screen.

Update: After 2 weeks of…
