Anyone own one? Curious about thoughts.

It's ok. Really cool when you are watching a movie that was originally filmed in 3d.

I don't use the 3D feature often, but I don't regret buying a 3D capable TV.

agree, i never use 3d but its a really nice tv

I noticed a difference between 60 Hz and 120 Hz...but do you notice any difference when watching regular TV in 3D? I know that the TV I get has to be 120 Hz, I could see a clear difference.

What's the point of having one then?

We own a LG 55 inch LED 3D set and a Sony 3D player We own about 70 % of the 3D catalogue we enjoy the TV and when we have guests over they usually pick a 3D movie to watch .

We picked the LG because of the Passive glasses ,you don't need to charge them and every time we go to the theatre and watch a 3D movie we bring home the real D glasses which work great and are cheap to replace not like the active ones that can cost a $100.00 or more each. We have had ours for 4 months

IMO it's an alright technology, but nothing AMAZING.. if you are going to buy a 3d tv and want to make the most of it make sure you buy a set with passive glasses and also get content which was filmed with 3d in mind, not just a 2d to 3d conversion. Personally I find it a bit gimmicky but each to their own

+1

I have a Panasonic 58" (which replaced my Pioneer 50"). I bought it because it was the best 2D at the time. Good for about the 1st 20 minutes then I'm done. Image is also darker & should watch in dark room. Light coming in from the sides are a real distraction. In my mind 3D is just a gimmick. If you do get as mentioned above, get content originally filmed in 3D.

And keep in mind how much 2d content you watch because a lot of 3d sets are a bit lacking in the 2nd department... I suggest a demo of the set you want to purchase prior to buying is a good idea also

I bought a new 50" TV a few months back and after demo-ing a number of sets (including a few 3D options) I went with a top quality 2D one. With the exception of Avatar I've been pretty much non-plussed with 3D movies, even in the cinema, so the idea of sitting in my lounge with a daft-looking pair of specs on, not really enjoying the effect, makes the whole 3D TV thing redundant for me.

Plus, the price tag is too high for what it is supposed to offer... or will offer, when more films will eventually become available.

Huh !!! My 3D has a fantastic picture in 2d and is awesome in 3D we own at least 75 movies . As far as price goes we paid $1600.00 for a 55 inch LED 3D with a excellent wood and glass stand and a Sony blue ray (3D) player and was given a LG home theatre in a box ( that will be an excellent X Mas present for 1 or our kids. That really was not expensive at all. The following day after we bought this the sale was over and the TV cost $1800.00 by its self.

Totally agree, Driver. I too went with a top of the range 2D, I'd rather have a decent surround sound setup than 3D and day of the week, far more immersive.

Why not have both?

Nothing stopping someone having both, but if I was in the market for a brand new tv i'd buy a top of the range 2d tv + spend decent money on surround. I believe the investment in a good surround sound setup is far more important than any investment into 3D.
