Barry 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2011 Hi,Looking to buy Samsung 46" 3D LED Smart TV 7000 series. Anyone has any reviews on this TV? and where can i buy at a cheaper price? Thanks in advance...RegardsHello,There is a comprehensive review on this model on HWZ. If this is not good enough, you can CNET Asia which has good reviews as well.You could try this link.HWZ 46" Samsung LED TV There is a current Harvey Norman roadshow at West Mall (Bukit Batok) and I believe they give out $20 vouchers for every $100/$200 spent so you could get some $400-500 off the price.I'm intending to get a 55" 3D Smart LED TV am deciding between the Samsung 7 Series ($4,299) and LG LW6500 ($3,199). Price wise, there is almost a $1000 difference, the former being more pricey probably due to the technology used. Appreciate if anyone could PM me if you comes across a better price than this in the next month as I'm moving early Dec. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But without the vouchers I would just wait since LG just launched the 9800 series last month and when it starts retailing I guess prices would drop even more.If you're interested, you could contact me, maybe getting 2 sets of LG 55LW6500 there could be more discount Hope this helps.

Actually I saw a side-by-side comparison of the Samsung 55" 7 series and 55LW6500, big big difference...True, waiting for SITEX may be a good option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marcus13 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 Hi All, I just bought a Philips 55" LED FULL HD SMART TV but yet to deliver. my viewing distance is about 3.4 m. i bought a 3 seater recliner that measures 2.9m in length. am thinking if i should upgrade to a 60" to accomodate the recliner. im thinking if the length of recliner is much longer than tv width, people seated at the left and right end of the recliner will feel uncomfortable watching the tv having to tilt their head. a 60" would probably cost a $1000 more than a 55". should i purchase the 60" or is 55" just good enough?

These 3 brands are established and I m sure most household own 1 of these 3 brands. To choose a gd tv, u need to really trust ur own eyes and do some homework. 1st is to set ur budget and then walk around to look for those which is within ur budget. Then do some research n read reviews from e net. Pay a visit to e store to view those u hv shortlisted. now ur own eyes play important role here. Trust ur eyes and DO NOT listen onli to e salesman. They tends to confuse u wif different kind of terms. oso I believe salesman is brand orientated. Ask e salesman to demo to u e same clip on e tv u shortlisted. Chose the one ur eyes most comfortable wif. I m sure u wont regret ur own decision then.Happy shopping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
