best TVs

The feature set on this TV is extensive - 240mhz refresh rate, 50K pixels, 3D, wireless.

If you have non-Sony equipment BUT STILL USE HDMI, it may support CEC anyway and work similarly with the added time of getting programming codes.

In fact it surpassed the color and gamma accuracy and linearity of our Pioneer Kuro, and we intend to use the D8000 as a reference display for color going forward.

HDMI-CEC works well.

Among the NX720's numerous picture presets we ended up preferring Cinema for dark-room critical viewing, but it did exhibit dark gamma in the middle areas and a too-bright overall image for dark rooms.

In default Movie mode the Samsung was characteristically accurate enough, delivering a relatively smooth grayscale overall, albeit a bit minus-red, and gamma that came close to our target.

To me passive 3D gives a better viewing experience and getting extra 3D glasses is very cheap.

DLNA streaming leaves a little be desired because it doesn't support MKV files, XVID, or other popular video formats.

The picture quality is excellent, the colors seem bright and accurate.
