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.

Content
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (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.

Picture quality
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (2011) | Rated 100% by by chipper-1109 (Oct, 2011)For the picture quality and the price at Amazon you cant beat it.
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (2011) | Rated 100% by by Hsin-Pai--Consumer-Extraordinaire (Apr, 2012)After setting up the new UN55D7900 I was very disappointed with the initial picture quality ... too blurry in spots and overly sharp/grainy in others.
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (2011) | Rated 100% by by C-David-Tabor (Jan, 2012)The image is so clear and the motion is so fluid.
Sharpness
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (2011) | Rated 100% by by Hogster (Mar, 2011)It exceeds my expectations..... I'm told that it's the same TV as the UND8000 but with the clear bezel instead of the silver.
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (2011) | Rated 100% by by Hsin-Pai--Consumer-Extraordinaire (Apr, 2012)I had an initial tendency to over brighten/over contrast the picture to pull out detail, but the picture rendered is too harsh.
Samsung 7900 Series 55" (2011) | Rated 100% by by VwrudeboyGli (Apr, 2012)lolAfter playing with this tv for about 2 weeks, I must say this Samsung tv is beautiful!! Full crisp picture, watching 3d movies are insane cant believe how crystal clear the movies are in 3d and I think its a lot better then watching a 3d movie at the.
