Samsung UN46B8000 46-Inch 1080p 240Hz LED HDTV review from Bryan Piereson BRP. very nice, Consumer Reports has not rated this set yet. Their current top rated set is the samsung ln650, which although good, has minor flaws, such as “3-ball effect” (tennis and football), varying shade of green on football fields when comparing line of scrimmage versus either side, and some smudginess.I see none of that with UN46B8000 that I bought last week. Fast motion is excellent. White is white, black is black, and reds and blues are beautiful. Clarity is excellent. Once in a while I’ve seen intense yellows and greens where I’ve wondered if it was an accurate depiction, but I’ve not made any adjustments yet. But, it’s hard to get all these qualities, especially whites, in plasma. I’m not a professional, just my observations based on a few months of shopping.
My opinion is that plasma has lost it’s advantage, especially if you consider power consumption. Plasmas only advantage now is price, but that should change over time.
The only problem with the un46b800 I’ve had is that occasionally the backlight setting jumps up. I think c/net mentioned this. Still, I’m very satisfied with this set.

I just bought this TV last night at BestBuy. I paid 1299.00 because it was the last floor model. I am still trying to figure out how to get my analog cable to work. It scans all the channels but it won’t display them after it finds them working fine. Other than that, this is my first LCD TV I have purchased. For what i can tell, I paid A LOT less then everyone else so from that stand point I am happy. The only down fall is I don’t have a manual for it. I am hoping to find one on-line. Generally this was a great buy! I love moving from my 32″ JVC analog TV to this monster 16 soeaker system. If you get a chance to buy it this cheap, DO IT! You won’t be disappointed.
I brought this tv on Amazon used. It hasn’t been out very long and LED have a long life span so I decided to give a shot plus you will never see this tv for under 1800 new. Another note, a guy returned it claiming it was scatched on the side. I can live with that. I got my tv and it looked scatched. after removing the plastic it wa in perfect condition. Hooked it up and the picture is truly beyond belieft on this tv. The only picture complaint I could have with SD. Once I hooked it to blu ray the picture took a whole new life that I didn’t realize I was missing from my old hd sony that I moved to the bedroom. I have found myself changing the settings every night looking the best picture but no setting is wrong…. maybe vivd. After Having about a month to really play around my biggest problem is too many picture options and a book that doesn’t explain everything in detail like how to know that your using the 24p mode
