The video in the led samsung looks great but how long will the product last 3 to 5 years ? After that is it servicable or is it just use and throw.Since the panel is so thin i doubt wheather one could solder or service the board,i.e if the I.C board gets dry soldering due to coastal humidity !

Any thoughts...

@krisachar

most likely used and throw

the newest top line is less than 1/2 as thin as mine

There are so many good TV's out now to me its between the Samsung 46" b6000 or the LG 47" LED SL90 for my bedroom I have to wait 1 more month to have enough saved up 8'(  because they are both $1500 $_$ how is the screen uniformity is there any backlight issues?

[paulchiu]

white skies will have a bit of shadowing on top edge.

no issues otherwise, especially with blacks.

this is pretty much standard now on all LCD sets, edge or non edge LED/LCD.

[paulchiu]

man i just ordered the 55" un8500 at a discount price! can't wait till it arrives my door steps. i almost ended up buying the sony xbr8 55" model. luckly that 8500 samsung popped up as 1 in stock. anyhow the top three hdtvs are the plasma pioneer kuro elite fd111 meaning 50" or fd151 60", the samsung lcd led 8500 and the sony bravia lcd led xbr8. kuro will be my next purchase know that they're discounted.

[krisachar]

@paulchiu ,Thanks for the info & your time.In that case i must wait for few more years to buy the LED Tv.SInce if its not repairable then the coast should also be less..

Since i want one to place it my house visitors hall,where we meet our guest.So naturally the size that i want to buy is 46 inches and above.

Thanks & Love,

kris.

[stupidguyaabbcc]

I checked today on Amazon, $1,600

[IgliMarku]

[IM1THE2KING3]

Wow camcorder recorded nicely

[kutuluu]

Looking great. Would buy one but gonna wait a couple of months to get a next gen C series model with 3D built in.

sony gets its lcds from 50-50 joint venture with samsung........50-50 means 50-50 production,manufacturing and overall 50-50 , 50% belongs to sony...........so they are not using samsung's lcds, both of them use same lcds produced by S-LCD(Sony 50% - Samsung 50%) joint venture
