7900 Series by charles (Feb, 2012)This is a great tv, I used to have a D6420 for about 8 months and sold it, then I bought this awesome 3d tv, the picture feels like your in the movie or tv show, it has the auto motion plus 240 Hz and I love it even though I know almost no body likes it, the 3D looks so great even when you are converting 2D to 3D, The speakers I think they are ok, at least they are louder then the ones on the D6420 I had before.
7900 Series by Anna-Shaw (Sep, 2011)Samsung's active glasses are lightweight and comfortable, and will fit right over your prescription glasses.
thickness
7900 Series by Otto-Bert (Sep, 2011)The picture is superb, the software and functionality are expansive, and the thin-ness of the device is remarkable.
7900 Series by Christian-Perversi--argentleman (Jul, 2012)The image flow on this screen is absolutely phenomenal and my wife and I have noticed a sense of depth of image (viewing 2D movies) that we had never experienced on any other set.

Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 100% by by Phong--Dragon (Jan, 2012)The only difference is no 3D glasses included, but the price is a stealing.

Movies
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 80% by by Christian-Perversi--argentleman (Jul, 2012)The TV is absolutely gorgeous and the picture is fantastic when you are watching very contrasty images (such as modern cartoons) or animated films.
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 100% by by spartan (Jun, 2011)Just one suggestion, if you just wanna watch Netflix without enjoyong Blu-ray movies.

Content
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 100% by by VwrudeboyGli (Apr, 2012)theatres. I have also played my Ps3 and Xbox on it.
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 80% by by Christian-Perversi--argentleman (Jul, 2012)Overall I gave it 4 stars because TVs are mostly for seeing TV, movies, etc and that it does well.
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 60% by by Mother-of-A---B (Jun, 2011)Out setup is a Mythbox that records TV as well as movies and then we view it later on our Smart TV.
Ports
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 80% by by Steven (Dec, 2011)You may want to look into this for using a compatible router that has a USB port for external storage or use a compatible laptop to do wireless streaming.
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 60% by by Marty-McCallIt's especially aggravating, since Smart TV features demand you login to the network, even if you're not going to use anything that requires a network collection (like watching a video through a USB hard drive).
Samsung 7900 Series 46" (2011) | Rated 100% by by VwrudeboyGli (Apr, 2012)I used my old HDMI's on day hooking them up and I noticed how sluggish and grainy things were, so I ordered the new cables thru online and when they came in I hooked them up and eveything was great the 240hz came alive and picture quality was great!! I am very Happy with this unit and if anyone has been looking to buy a great 3d tv the Samsung 55d 7900 series is great.
