Q. What's the difference between the C, D, and E? All I want is sick picture and sound. I don't care for extra features this TV will simply be used to play videogames and watch a movie every now and then
A. A quick explanation of the Samsung serial numbers:
Part 1, the display technology: UN = LED, LN = LCD, PN = plasma
Part 2, the size: easy to recognize, it's 46-inch
Part 3, the series: D6000, ES8000, C7000, loads of variations. The C series are from 2010, D is from 2011, E(S) is from 2012. The number indicates the specs/features.
A few examples: UN46Cxxxx is a 46-inch LED screen from 2010, a PN55Dxxxx is a 55-inch plasma from 2011. A UN55D7000 has the same features as a UN46D7000, just a bigger screen.
Over the last years, image quality improved but not as fast as new fancy features were added. If you don't need gesture control, internet access, smart TV features and apps, a HDTV from 2010 would be perfectly fine, the irony is that most of them are more expensive now that the new 2012 ones. The UN46C6500 for example costs about $1.4k, the UN46ES6500 slightly more than $1k.
Bottom line: My recommendation would be the UN46EH6000. No 3D, no unneeded features, but 240Hz refresh rate, decent image quality, 2x HDMI, 1x USB, Dolby Digital Plus/Dolby Pulse, barely more than $800 for a perfect "basic" HDTV. Sick sound? All modern flatscreen HDTVs have built-in 10-20 watt speakers. That's far from perfect, no matter what manufacturer you look at, these thin little speakers can't do wonders. Some sort of home theatre kit is definitely recommended for all audiophiles.

Are the new Samsung LED HDTV's being released this year the same as last years but with internet connectivity?
Q. I compared last years samsung 40 inch led hdtvhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B001UHMV90/ref=ord_cart_shr?_encoding=UTF8&m=AC6PKMTT64SLP&v=glance with the newer samsung 40 inch led http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-UN40C6500-40-Inch-1080p-Black/dp/B0036WT4A6/ref=br_lf_m_1000482211_1_6_ttl?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=electronics&pf_rd_p=665111022&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_t=1401&pf_rd_i=1000482211&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=04YF5NDEZXW1FV4S1AF5 and they appear to be the same to me, only the newer models have internet connections built in to them. I am thinking about getting last years model because i already own a ps3 and computer, which makes internet on tv pointless to me. is that the only major difference between the two? Or could someone who knows more about this subject elaborate to me the BEST choice? Thanks so much for reading.
A. I'm not sure which one would be better, but I would be really careful buying a Samsung LCD HDTV. They have a really bad reputation of suddenly not being able to turn on. I just had this issue a week and half ago. We got our Samsung LCD HDTV from Best Buy only a year and half ago... During the blizzard of 2010, a power outage occurred and my TV just wouldn't turn on anymore. After tons of research online, I found out that Samsung has been having tons of issues with the capacitors going bad very soon... Google "Samsung LCD TV wont turn on" or "Samsung LCD TV clicking." Some people were saying their TV was only 3 months old and it wouldn't turn on anymore... :/
Not saying Samsung is screwed, but it'll give you a big hassle knowing that there's a big chance its going to happen along the future. BTW, I fixed my TV...after tons of research, and being quoted $450 to fix it, I learned how to do it on my own online. all I had to do was open the TV, examine the power supply circuit board, and change out a capacitor.
....it was just a big fat headache though. Take this into consideration before buyin a Samsung please! ..if you know how to solder, this isn't a big deal. I didn't know sh*t about TVs, capacitors, circuit boards, or soldering....
