The real question for me was passive 3D quality. The result is similar to shutter glasses. If there is reduced video quality I can't see it. The polarized glasses included with the set (4 pairs) are of good quality. I purchased several pairs of used Real D glasses online and they feel a little sturdier(paid $.90 per pair delivered). The other basics: 1080p as good as any TV I've seen, good 480i picture, basic(but passable) TV sound, easy setup and a nice backlit remote. Wireless access to some web content, One button to access netflix. Easy access to youtube and a few other video services. Widget availability is almost laughable. Can't find true access to the web. 2D to 3D conversion is interesting. Not really 3D, but adds a little something to baseball. I was a little worried about the size (in 3d size does matter), but the 3D is good quality from approx 5 to 12 feet. The darker the room the better.

Was waiting for a 42 inch from LG but couldnt wait anymore. I was afraid this wouldnt have an 'in your face' 3d effect I saw from an LG in bestbuy. But after playing the same LG 3d demo, I am impressed. Ive been using the tv for 3 days now, 3d and 2d is great. Some cons - it takes about 15 seconds to turn on, and sound is not too good. 3d effect on this tv is much better than in the theaters. I recieved the tv the next day. Highly recommended!

This being my first Full HDTV that I personally purchased, I was absolutely blown away by the picture quality compared to the 55" LCD Samsung HDTV that my parents own. I would definitely recommend users to buy this product because of its picture quality and top of the line features. The 3D experience is great and the 2D to 3D conversion is also very good but there is a clear difference which is to be expected. The NetTV apps also works great. The only con would be a 15-20 sec start up time delay but that doesn't really bother me too much. Undoubtedly 5/5!
