Is the picture still good even in non-3d? I want a good tv but don't need the 3d
I want a good TV with the smart features of this one, but don't need 3D. In fact my wife hates 3D. Is this still a good option.
Yes, this is still a great option.
There is no resolution or quality loss with a 3-D panel - rather, the 3D feature requires the panel be faster than others on the market in order to support the 3-D format, so it will be quicker and have less blur than some non 3-D panels.
So you would be getting a faster panel than many panels on the market.
If you decide to use the 3-D, you'll need a pair of 3-D glasses and content (like a 3-D Blu-Ray player), and you certainly don't have to use that feature to get the most out of your TV. The 2-D picture is a fantastic, bright and quickly refreshing panel.
Many of the higher end televisions will have the 3-D feature available, but you don't have to use it.
Thanks for your interest in Samsung televisions.
