The Samsung 55-inch 1080p 240 Hz LED HDTV

I'm pissed. I know that's no way to begin a hub but I am. Not long ago I bought a Samsung HDTV. About 3 years ago this HDTV was the top of the line HDTV out there. It was Samsung's newest technology at the time. You remember the commercial. The commercial with the little girl in it saying, " It's the mirrors." I thought that was the coolest and I was totally sold on it. So when the opportunity arrived for me to go and get a HDTV, that's the one that I bought.

At the time you could choose between three different technologies. You could buy a plasma. you could buy a LCD. Or you could buy what I got, a DLP. It was only 3 years ago. The DLP was the new kid on the block. It had none of the problems that were associated with the plasma. It wasn't as expensive as the LCD. And if you had a problem with the picture, all you had to do was change the bulb. Now , you NEVER hear about the DLP anymore. It's all about the plasma, the LCD or the new NEW kid on the block, the LED.

The Samsung UN55B8000 55-Inch 1080p 240 Hz LED HDTV is a result of this LED technology. I have to say that after seeing it in the store. I was very impressed. (The pictures that they show you on the commercial are not enough, you should go see it in the store!) The picture is incredible, to say the least. The colors are vibrant, and the darks are well...dark. This is a true work of art over my old DLP. Matter of fact, they don't even make my old DLP technology anymore. In the space of 2 years, my DLP has become obsolete.
