My girlfriend ordered this TV through Amazon, and It arrived in 6 days with free shipping. This replaced my Samsung 50" 1080p/60hz DLP TV in the living room. I immediately noticed the "soap opera effect" and turned off 240hz clear frame which seemed to help. Otherwise the clarity, brightness, viewing angle, and overall picture quality is 3X better than my DLP. Blu Rays, video games, and directv HD content look amazing. 240hz is great for sports, and I can't wait to host the next UFC at my house!

I bought cheap HDMI 1.4 cables and a 3D blu ray from Amazon (Legends of the Guardians) and I was impressed with the 3D picture on this tv. I dislike watching 3D movies in theaters because they give me a headache. That problem remains at home, however my girlfriend enjoys 3D and it's something to show off when people come over. I wanted a quality LED TV, and that's what I got. I won't complain that it happens to support 3D and comes with free glasses :)

My only complaint about this TV is the glossy display. My Samsung had 0 glare, so I really notice it. The only time I notice clouding is when I'm waiting for a blu ray to load and it's on a dark screen. I never notice it on dark scenes of video games or during movies, so it doesn't bother me. I believe the negative reviewers on Amazon are blowing it out of proportion (People complaining on the internet? Imagine that!).

I am giving this TV 5 stars because I had high expectations and it met/exceeded them. You will not find a better TV for the price.
