Considering this is in Samsung's 6-series line (read: budget), the features and picture quality are top-notch. Like most people, I considered an LED backlit (not perimeter lit) higher end set. While I agree that the black level is nicer on the LED lit sets, it is not twice as good to justify the price. Same thing with 240Hz, it's an improvement, but not a must-have. 3" vs 1" thick... once it's on the wall, 7' away from you, I doubt you'll care much.
With a TV like this, you want to spend time reading up on settings to tweak it for your room and your tastes. But, out of the box, the TV performs beautifully, the color and contrast are excellent. Sound... well I'm not sure, since I don't use the onboard speakers.
I was able to get this with the free blu-ray player for $[...] shipped, turned the player around on [...] for [...] bucks so the set was $[...] net. Edit: I absoultely CANNOT believe it is selling for 2600 bucks now with NO free Blu-Ray player. Since when do electronics go UP in price? Next thing you know, OLED will go obsolete before LCD.
If you are considering a TV this size, definitely go down to your local shop to check out the bezel as it definitely has some red highlights and is a bit bigger underneath the set than some of the more minimalistic designs out there. That design element may bother some. Depending on the wall color behind the set (ideally should be a neutral dark color) you may not even notice it.
