Samsung UN55B6000 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV
Pros: Excellent picture clarity, amazing colors, 120hz works exceptionally well with progressive scan (ie 720p, 1080p)
Cons: Expensive, backlighting (actually, it’s edge lighting on this model) is a little uneven in the corners. While watching credits at the end of a movie, you can see light and dark patches when the background is supposed to be solid black. This only occurs with really dark images and is a function of the TV being so thin.
Overall: I’ve had the TV for several months with no problems. I’m really happy with this purchase and would make it again.

This is my first HDTV and I must say the picture is stunning. The TV appearance also looks great and has many great features. But I’ve noticed that when the picture background is light, that the corners are darker – like a smudged type look. I’d say this affects one square inch in each corner. Asside from this, the TV is great – but once I have noticed this I have found it annoying. I spoke to Samsung and they were very nice and they assured me the problem will be fixed. They put me in touch with a service technician and they are replacing the entire TV panel next Friday. I still am enjoying the TV very much – it has a beautiful picture – I hope the new TV panel eliminates the small problem.
I got the new panel installed – and the dark corner problem is gone -
The picture now is totally remarkable !!!!

I waited long enough for a T.V like this to come out. I have holding out on buying a T.V as they are always coming out with newer technology. I am very please with my purchase. I have not played around with the settings but this picture is truly amazing. My dad had an older Samsung and he was amazed how the picture has changed since he purchased his about 2 year ago. The slim depth is just plain mind blowing. I also got this t.v for a great price after the huge promotional discount Amazon offered. A little part of my wishes that I would have splurged for the 8000 series but I am very happier with the picture.
The one concern I had after reading everyone’s review is the overpowered LED bleeding through the edges of the T.V during the dark scenes. I have not really noticed this at all. I think some people are just overly critical on things. If you really pay attention to it you might notice it but if you are just watching the picture itself you can’t notice it. So don’t base your decision on this issue.
