Very nice after some calibration
By peterfram
Note, this TV uses "direct lit" technology from Samsung. To reduce cost the EH6070/6000 models use fewer LEDs than traditional full array backlit or edge lit displays of the higher end slim models. And it is 120Hz, not 240Hz. 240Hz CMR is just a Samsung marketing label. That does not really matter though since 120Hz is pretty good.To my surprise and inconvenience it took me a few days to calibrate this screen. The options are limited but not too bad and certainly easy to work with. But I initially had a consistent problem fixing blown out yellows/limes/cheddar cheese colors. At first I was alarmed thinking that perhaps the new and cheaper direct lit technology sacrificed digital dynamic range. And I also had to deal with a seemingly old school 1990's overly red flesh tones problem. I tried multiple EH6000 calibration settings posted on avsforum and multiple review sites but was not satisfied. I was considering returning it.So I pulled out my Disney WOW calibration Blu Ray. It seemed like I hardly changed a thing, but somehow that calibration did the trick. Everything looks pretty close to perfect now. In the past I never spent more than 10 to 15 minutes calibrating a new TV or projector.Initial impressions are that our older Vizio SV472XVT has higher end components with full backlit array versus Samsung's new direct lit. However, despite something slightly inferior with the Samsung in overall screen micro-light management appearance, the Samsung beats the Vizio in depth of color rendition. The Vizio might win for watching standard TV dramas and news. But the Samsung wins clearly when watching high depth modern animation like Toy Story movies etc and video games.The direct lit technology uses fewer LEDs to reduce cost by quite a bit. There is a small price to quality which I can see but is hard to describe. Less micro management of light I guess. More like the first LCD's. When you bring up the all white screen on the Disney WOW calibration tools you can clearly see each section of LED lighting with grey gaps between each section and slight grey blotches in the upper left and right corners about 4 inches from the edges on the 55 inch model. I did not try this on the Visio, so nothing to compare this to. Whatever I see in difference is small enough that I don't really care however because the overall image produced on the screen during normal viewing is quite beautiful. I probably would never have noticed all this had the EH6070 been better calibrated out of the box.That is my only beef with this TV. It took me 15 or 20 minutes here and there over a few days tweaking settings to get it to look right. Kind of an inconvenience.So in the interest of helping others, here are my hard earned current beloved EH6070 calibration settings.Backlight 19Contrast 100Brightness 44Sharpness 12Color 47Tint G51/R49AdvancedDynamic Contrast OffBlack Tone OffFlesh Tone -1RGB Only Mode OffColor Space AutoWhite Balance G-Gain 26, all others 25Gamma 0Motion Lighting OffPicture OptionsColor Tone StandardDigital Noise Filter OffMPEG Noise Filter OffLED Motion Plus OffBy the way, the reason I bought this model (and you might) over ES6500, ES7100 or other?:-No need for an edge lit slim TV since this is a corner installation in my family room. Also I can see the edge lit uniformity issues on the Costco showroom floor if I stand and stare long enough. The bleeding and torchlight problems with those higher end edge lit screens would not bug me very much, but I really do not feel the need to pay extra for it.-The EH6000/6070 TV has a mostly (but not a pure) matte screen. Plasmas and edge lit screens are almost entirely glossy to improve black levels. Glossy creates strong reflections. I can't watch anything when there is a light reflection on the screen. I just stare at the light and lose focus of what I am watching. We have kitchen lights in the distance behind one sofa and my wife likes to keep a light on around the sofa. The matte screen on this TV works very well at avoiding reflections. The black levels on the EH6070 are great. Black is seriously black. So don't worry about that.-3D for the kids! I had never before seen 3D on a TV. And while not a fan of 3D except for kids movies, I was impressed with Hugo and the Lorax. It's no more slightly distorted/weird than viewing in a movie theater. It is actually quite high quality and pretty cool in your home. Modern 3D is still for kids, or kids at heart. While I have nothing to compare to but movie theater 3D, this TV seems to do a good job with 3D. I also watched a quarter of NFL football in 2D to 3D conversion mode and it was kind of cool. You see the depth somewhat as if you were at the stadium so you can better tell the height and direction of movement of the players and the ball. But the you still have the slight weirdness of 3d and realistically you would want to watch your sports in 2D. For serious viewing I still classify 3D in the gimmick category. I would much rather watch a good non-kid's movie in 2D. The 3D glasses must go though. Glasses are annoying and inconvenient for making sandwiches in the kitchen and watching a movie at the same time!Can't comment on sound quality. I have never used the TV speakers, in favor of my AV receiver and speakers.

Great TV bundle with blue-ray
By Sheng
= Summary =Pros:- Good starter bundle, has everything you need for a 3D smart TV, especially it gives you the blu-ray player- Great price for a Samsung TV- Amazing 3D effect- It makes XBOX games look fantastic- 3D glasses fit onto my glasses, so no worries if you wear glassesCons:- Web apps are slow- The remote controls for the TV and the player look very similar to each other- Only 2 pair of 3D glasses= Original post on July/2012 =This is a new model manufactured in May 2012, the price is decent, and this bundle has all the things you want:- Wifi support- Apps- Blu-ray- 3D- LEDThe only difference between this one and the more expensive ones is that the TV itself does not have wifi, but the blue-ray player does the magic of smart tv work. So if you are going to need the blue-ray anyway, this bundle is definitely a good deal.I have not got a chance to watch any 3D movie on it, but just playing XBOX games, it has been fantastic. The 55 screen looks awesome, so is the sound.= Sep/2012 update, after using for 2 months =I have been using the TV for about 2 months, majorly playing XBOX and watch Blu-ray movies, and it performs really well. I finally got a chance to watch the 3D movie Transformers, and it was amazing. One thing I like about the glass is that it fits onto my glasses too, so if you wear glasses, do not worry, the 3D glasses pair is very light and will fit. I hope it comes with more glasses though.The remote control's response is good, the only down side is that you will have two similar remote controls, one for the TV and the other one for the player. Sometimes I got confused with one from the other.I only used the apps inside the player once, and it was very slow. If I ever use it to watch streams, I would use XBOX rather than the player.

By JB
I purchased this TV/DVD/3D glasses combo as a "Warehouse deal". It arrived on time in the factory box looking like new, with a slight ding in one side of the box and a DVD movie inside the DVD, but it was a good one! This TV/flat panel is like a window when mounted on the wall(which I did easily with a mount from Amazon). The clarity and sharpness is amazing. The sound is also quite good for a flat panel probably due to the deeper back which wasn't a problem on wall installation. The DVD integration for smart TV features is excellent and I had no problem linking it to my router in my Den(2 rooms away). The glasses seem cheap but that's the latest style from what I can see and they work well. Overall I couldn't be happier with the package and the price couldn't be beat!
