Since no one has posted a review on this wonderful set, I thought I would post something to give everyone an idea about the set. Just a quick disclaimer: this TV replaces a 3 year old Sharp Aquos 37" LCD which has performed admirably and I plan to place it in the guest bedroom.

There just isn't much online about this particular set since it has not been widely released yet. In fact, there is really no information on this set even on the samsung site although you can look up the pn50c680 on the site to find similar specs. In short, it is a wonderful TV at a wonderful price/performance ratio which has enough features for me... I don't really care about app support since I own both an Xbox 360 and PS3 which should have me covered on any apps that the more feature loaded TVs may include.

I've had this TV for roughly 5 days now and I've been putting it through its paces. The TV is wonderful and provides an absolutely stunning picture when properly calibrated... Read more

I have spent looks of time researching which tv would be the best option for me. I was previously looking at the Samsung PN58C7000 which is basically the next step up in the line. When I came across this option I was skeptical at first due to the limited information and customer reviews out there. It isn't even on Samsungs site yet. After some deep research and consideration I decided to make the jump and purchase this model. I must say that I think I made the right decision. Not only is this model hundreds cheaper than the C7000 and C8000, but after some tweaking you can actually unlock the tv to think it is the C8000. It is as simple as hitting a few buttons. You can search how to do this on AVS fourms. The main difference between this model and the C8000 is the Real Black filter, but to be honest the blacks this display shows are pretty outstanding. The 3D is also fantastic. I for one can't wait until some more 3D blu-ray's come out. As a side note, if you convert to... Read more

I have waited a long long time to buy my first HDTV. After attempting to be a conscientious consumer and read 30 hours of HDTV reviews, I took the plunge when this sold for under $1600 with a 3D starter kit.

Note to new HDTV buyers:
1) The advantage and glory of having a over 50" screen is under appreciated. Buy as big as your room will allow, you will have the TV a long long time.
2) Dont read "too much" on AVSforum. You will begin to learn to "watch for" things in TV performance that for the common man, just detracts.
3) Adjustments and "black levels." Sheesh, this TV is so grand right out of the box. I'm a techie and haven't even delved into such matters, I was so excited to get the PS3 gaming action going, I haven't cared since. If the image looks good, or even fine, just leave it alone, you'll never know!

I have no buyer's remorse and I'm completely 100% happy that I got this enormously sized 3DTV. Every single soul that has stepped into... Read more
