SAMSUNG UE46C7000 - Thoughts?

[GazzyP]

I cant seem to find a review on What HiFi of this particular model, and wondered if anyone has bought one, or got any thoughts on this as its has come top of the list for a 46" 3D TV for around £1400.

Or can alternatives can be suggested by anyone?

spend an extra £100 and get the 8000 for the local dimming.

Its a very nice tv with great picture, dlna, and useful internet features - iplayer,youtube etc

(if u dont already have at box that provides them)

I'd read that local dimming can create 'grey boxes' around bright objects, so wasnt so convinved by this. The blacks look very good on the 7000 anyway (compared to my 5 year old Sony LCD anyway). Does the 8000 offer anything else other than local dimming over the 7000?

PS3, Apple TV etc does all the internet stuff, so really its the picture quality that is important for Blu-Ray and PS3 (3D) gaming.
