First off, I have had this tv for 2 days. Right after I ordered it, I started reading about input lag and other things. I'll be honest, it got me worried. I'm a regular gamer, and it is really what I got the TV. So when it first arrived, I set it up and put in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 .. Without changing any settings. I noticed that there was some input lag, and it was a little annoying .. but it was playable in my opinion.

So I turned off the Tru Motion by changing the picture setting to "Game". I really did not notice much of a difference. It improved by 20% maybe? That was when I was starting to get worried .. I did a little research and found a sneaky trick / fix. So far it worked great. (Knock on wood, I really love my TV in full now!) Below are step by step instructions.


1. On your remote, press the input button.
2. Then push the blue button on the bottom right hand corner of the remote. It says 3D settings but that's irrelevant right now.
3. This will open a window to change the name of the input.
4. Choose the PC name.

When you change the name of the input to PC, it turns off almost all of the image processing that comes with the HDMI input. So far, It has worked GREAT!

Setup was relatively painless. I haven't setup the 3D Bluray player yet, I'll update when I do. My first 3D experience was with Halo CE Anniversary. I must say... INCREDIBLE! I wasn't ready for things to really come out of the screen. I guess my expectations were a little low. But hey! It turned out to be a good thing!

The 2D to 3D is pretty sweet. I have found that it doesn't work great with everything. Sports, sitcoms and movies are pretty cool when up-converted. But talk shows and news isn't anything special. Of course, the LED and Tru Motion make everything silky smooth. Makes everything look almost fake, I personally like this.

When I opened the packs of 3D glasses, I was surprised, they weren't black, but white and orange! I kinda thought this was cool, you could call it a pleasant surprise.

I'll be updating this review as I use the TV more over the weekend. Really get into the nitty gritty of the settings. Please rate this review as helpful!
