I'm guessing that'll be the E series TVs. Available in most stores already though.Originally Posted by Haldex
In South Africa even the information superhighway has potholes on it.
That wouldn't be true 100Hz, you're probably referring to 100 CMR, which some abuse further by adding in a Hz at the end. Cheapest Sammy 40" 100Hz is usually R8k+ and starts at 6 Series (nice Dion Wired special with the UA40D6000 for R6k).
+1 to that model. Love it (46" that is)That wouldn't be true 100Hz, you're probably referring to 100 CMR, which some abuse further by adding in a Hz at the end. Cheapest Sammy 40" 100Hz is usually R8k+ and starts at 6 Series (nice Dion Wired special with the UA40D6000 for R6k).
My wife and son went off to buy the Samsung 43" E450 today for 5k and came back with a UA40ES6200R for 10k.
Any comments on this tv? I love the SMART tv with wifi and all the rest, but I won't see it until I get back to SA in August and would like to know is it twice the tv for twice the price?
Also, where is the best place to buy more active 3d glasses? They seem like they cost a fortune

I'm working away these days so she had no choice after the old one stopped working recently. It was probably my son twisting her arm to get the fancy job but it seems like she got a decent tv. At least it wasn't a pair of shoes ffs
It was probably your son and the salesman
Edit: that could come across wrong: I meant with the commission aspect.

So what is CMR now?
That's a typical example of the marketing abuse. That is a 50Hz panel with 100 CMR. But now they advertise it as 100Hz. Flips me off, because people get suckered.
A true 100Hz panel would pwn it.
CMR is Samsung's new way of measuring a TV's ability at reducing motion blur by using a combination of panel refresh rate (Hz) + backlight strobing and other new techs. In the ad and most others they imply a higher panel refresh rate by applying their new CMR calculation as if it's the panel refresh rate (Hz).

Sneaky. So the one I just got with 100Hz and 400 CMR is pretty decent?
I don't know if you saw my post earlier Pot, any comment on this tv we got yesterday? UA40ES6200.
The annoying thing is she got stung for R1700 in back pay for the tv license, so she left the HD PVR to compensate. Now she's all set up at home, she wants to go back and get the HD PVR
B@stards!!
I see none of the Samsungs and Sonys have the hz at the end, they all 100, 200 or 400.
So how do I differentiate between a 50hz with 100 CMR and a 100hz TV?
Why? The EH5000 LED is the direct price replacement for the D550 LCD. Hypothetically even if the CMR 100 did nothing, you would still would be getting the 2012 model for the same price point as the 2011 one (when launched), which was 50Hz anyway. So where's the suckering?
Not apples with apples, a 2012 model with a 100Hz DSP (200Hz+ CMR) would not be at this price point.
