I do not, as usual, bought this TV a few days ago, at Amazon - but I hope that I can still have a decision-making aid here.
This TV offers really everything you could imagine at the time so. All tuners are installed, so cable off stations Search and go the viewing experience. It should be mentioned that during initial commissioning still one or the other update is started and you should bring some patience, but worth it. I sit away about 2.5 to 3 m from the television. At first a slays the mighty image which appears to float in the air. Man (n) but used to it very quickly and a few days later, I could also have a 46 "he with me imagining;..) The picture quality is just stunning, insbensondere on the HD channels Blue Ray, I have not but I am sure that it is there be no different. Even convince the analog channels, even if they seem faded significantly compared to the digital channels.
Without Internet goes nix. Quite as drastic, it is then not, but you should this TV either via the built-in WLAN or network cable to the Internet so close you can use (a kind of virtual headquarters Komanso) the Smart Hub. From here, one can imagine the sender reorder (unfortunately only in the specified groups, ie digital channels among themselves, analogue channels among themselves etc. - to combine it's not the digital to analog, so that, for example on the 1. ARD HD is and on the 7 the analog signal from Pro 7 - but there is a workaround giving), a full-fledged browser, VoD (max cathedrals, Youtube), Facebook, Skype and 3D movies (currently mainly documentaries Movie Trailer) drive. Browse to the control over the mobile phone is recommended (i-Phone or div. Samsung Galaxy products) via app, since the (virtual) keyboard of the phone's can be used. The traditional text input on Samsung TV is cumbersome and mühsehlig (reminiscent of early write SMS).
The 3D app is really good, because here scores of television across the board. Here you can (mostly in English) Watch Trailer, documentaries or children's educational films in 3D and test the properties of 3D TV without 3D BlueRay player. According to Samsung, is also steadily growing supply. Yet here's all free (as of 06/2011). The included glasses are easy, "flickers" but something that is not noticed in the store with the more expensive battery-powered glasses. Overall, the 3D image after a short eingeöhnungsphase in a darkened room is super amazing, crystal clear and sharp. Although the picture is dark (normally with activated 3D), this will affect the film enjoyment and not out after a short time a well everything seems to be normal. All in all, there is great potential for addiction here. Disadvantage is the high purchase price of the 3D glasses, since you sometimes want to share with others this 3D experience.
The TV can also convert normal TV Program in 3D. This can be achieved depending on the quality of the signal, more or less. A slight spatial impression you always get, because the entire image appears slightly in the television added into it, but it's nothing compared to the correct 3D movies.
I was also very uncertain as regards my original sound. A flatter televisions could since have its difficulties and in many tests the Samsung cut usually not so well off. But I could not let a beleheren Bessseren. The sound quality is convincing absolutely. Concerts sound really good, language, movies etc, everything was great. Can has an optical output to connect a 5.1 or 7.1 system, but for normal operation, this is completely unnecessary.
Excited I was also an opportunity easy to connect a hard disk and then to watch a movie. Everything super easy and intuitive. Recording TV programs should also not be a problem, but I have not tested. Equally easy it is to play music. Here again the sound convinced. How and if the television with the Apple formats copes I do not know, I avoid them like the plague due to the inkomptibilität to "normal" products.
In short: I'm thrilled!
