Product Description
2 pairs of battery type 3D glasses and one 3D Blu-ray movie title… More >>
I just purchased this item along with a Samsung UN55C7000 and a Samsung BD-C6900. Let me just say, it’s amazing. It came with a free movie, Monsters vs Aliens. The movie looks amazing on the TV.
The glasses didn’t need any pairing or calibration as some people claim that it needs. It’s just as simple as turning on the glasses. The 3D quality is top notch, however I’ve experienced a few ‘glitches’ so far. During different parts of the movie, I’ll notice a 3D shadow of whatever item is on the screen. For example, in the beginning of the movie there is a church in a scene. The image of the church felt like as if the glasses weren’t working correctly. The 3D was working, but it felt like it wasn’t a clear 3D picture. Let me try to explain it a little different. You know when you have a 3D movie on the screen without the glasses? How you can see a blur of an image all together for each eye? When you put on the glasses, that image becomes one right? Well, imagine that image not coming together 100%. Having an “edge” of a blur and that’s the issue I’m experiencing.
I’ve tried the other set of glasses only to have the same outcome. I’ve called Samsung to troubleshoot my issue and considering it’s a new product, they said they have to call me back in 24-48 hours to see what’s wrong. Oddly enough, I went to a local Best Buy and tried the exact same setup, except this time using the Rechargeable Samsung glasses, rather than the battery operated ones I have. I didn’t experience the same issue. I’ve tried shifting settings around on both the TV and the Bluray player and have yet to get a fix for it. I’ll update this post as more information comes.

Hey I purchased the entire setup, the 55 inch Samsung 3D tv, the glasses 5 pair and the dvd starter kit. I played the movie perfect out of the box. In 2D mode made some changes went back to 3D and got the crosstalk that is being mentioned in earlier post. Best Buys setup did not have it. Geek squad not familiar enough with it when they came to the house. I played with the settings with the bluray 3D player on went into the controls for the 3D setting (that only can be adjusted when 3D player is on and running) go into tv menu and under the 3D setting very last option that is blanked out unless 3D player is running is the box (3D Optimize) some are set to 0 some are plus 1. I set mine to -1 and picture cleared right up. 3D optimize when at 0 or +1 I got ghosting or cross talk. Set to -1 and picture calibrated fine. I am not sure what changed this or maybe I made the change when I was adjusting settings earlier. It only shows to allow changes when the 3D player is running. Player, TV and glasses work great. Samsung should put out a quick book on the settings for 3D this to me was important. None of the other settings and adjustments worked and not until I turned on 3D player and looked it all over did I find this adjustment and make the change. Great TV, now we need more movies!

Truly enjoy watching the 3D experiance, the glasses work very well and the Movie was way better than i expected it to be. I am a member of Netflix (great service), and converted my account to Blu-ray movies instead of recieving DVD. I placed alot of 3D Blu-ray movies in my Que. the selection is getting larger. I have the Samsung UN55C8000 tv with the Samsung BD-C6900 blu-ray player and the free Samsung 3D starter kit. LOVE it all

Problems I had with these:
* Too heavy
* Uncomfortable on ears
* Very blurry 3D at times (Could be the TV issue – PN55C7000)
* Headache after 45 minutes
* And of course ridiculously overpriced. I think at least 4 glasses need to come with each TV. This is none sense.
I have to mention that I returned my TV, Bluray and the Glasses because I just thought it’s not worth the price tag yet. 3D is not as pleasant as what you see in movie theaters or in theme parks.

You need them to watch 3D. The glasses sync with an infared signal from lower left corner of TV, so need a straight unobstructive path (no lying down and not off on an angle) We had a problem with bright sunlight messing up the sync, but closed the blinds and all was fine (Samsung was going to send someone out to investigate!! great service)
My wife wears glasses and does not have a problem with wearing the 3D glasses. Turning on/off the glasses takes a little practice (then found out they will turn off automatically when loose sync – so just have to turn them on, which is easy to do.
This model does not use rechargeable batteries; since we didn’t buy the set for 3D don’t know how long the batteries will last.
CAREFULL when cleaning them, they can be easliy damaged – each lens is composed of two membranes, and if pressed and touch they could be damaged. Don’t let kids handle the glasses.
These were included free with our purchase – the only way to go as the glasses are too much money!!
