The wall mount just arrived today,...  ^-^
It was priced at $600, but with a lot of haggling and budging, it ended up at $199,...
Cool...

Panalo! :)

@abc,
Malaki talaga markup dito. Kaya nga dati tempted to bring home one from SG since it was cheaper there. Pero by the time you get it here duties and customs would put it right about the same price that they sell it here.

Although I'm not sure if this is true that OFWs are allowed to bring home one appliance duty and customs free? Saan ko ba narinig yun? Hahaha

UPDATE:

The UN78JU7500 arrived early yesterday, and was wall mounted in under 2 hours,
first impression with the resolution and colors: STUNNING
but saw the problem as soon as I walk around the living area, TERRIBLE GLARE
no matter what adjustment I make on the wall mount to tilt it, swivel it, and even close the blinds around me, turn off all the lights, the GLARE is still there,...

Will be going back to Best Buy today to get the UN75JU7100 instead, the flat panel is still the best choice for a somewhat dim lit or bright lit rooms, I could honestly say that a curve, esp the current models, would look really nice in a basement or a dedicated HT where the surroundings are treated.

Cheers,..

 ^-^

I saw the glare problem as soon as it was being wall mounted,
Then I tried my best to somehow resolve the issue by doing everything that I know...
Kaya lang, masyado ang glare talaga, it was really reflective,...
I was actually trying my best to live with it, kumbaga, will just settle for it...
I kept it to myself, but my daughter saw the problem too, hindi rin sya kumibo...
So the next morning ng magising si misis, considering that my wife seldom see any difference sa mga video resolution, nagulat ako ng sabihin sa akin na bakit ganun ka-glare ang TV, nakikita daw nya mga reflection sa kahit saang angle, dun ako natawa at alam ko ng hindi nga maganda ang panel talaga...

Then we had the discussion na kung ang added $$$ na ibinayad namin ay para sa bahagyang improvement ng resolution in terms of color and contrast, eh hindi naman pala makikita dahil sa glare, and hindi rin daw nya makita ang difference ng pagiging curve nya compare sa flat pag naka-wall mount na, eh hindi daw worth it...

Kaya I knew I would end up with my first choice... The good thing is binigyan ako ng 14 days to return it, without any restocking fee, ang binayaran ko lang ay ang paglabas ng Geek Squad ulit to take down the unit and install the new one...

I saw the same model side by side with the flat, somehow, mas matindi ang glare and reflection ng curve, the flat has some too, but not that much that would bother me... Iba ang tindi ng glare ng 7500,...

Will update you guys next week when they deliver the new TV, for now I still have a week or so to use this curve...  :)

@ABCmotorparts: Tama nga yun nasa Cons section..

1. The curve exaggerates reflections
If you’ve ever stood in front of one of those trick mirrors at a fun park, you’ll know that shaped glass can do weird things to reflections. It’s the same deal with a curved TV. Anything bright in your room – especially direct light sources opposite your TV – has its reflection on a curved screen stretched and distorted across a wider area of the screen than would occur with a flat TV. So if you buy a curved TV, you’ll probably find you need to introduce some extra light control elements to your viewing room.

I did read about those, kaya lang I just have to find out for myself, and with the deal Best Buy gave me, I knew its a WIN - WIN for me, I knew na pag hindi ko nagustuhan ang curve, ay maibabalik ko ng walang restocking penalty, kaya OK lang din, as of now, I still have the curve, naayos na rin ang paperworks ng ipapalit, and would be delivered on the 30th pa, the good thing is, hindi nila aalisin ang curve hangga't hindi nila dinadala ang kapalit, kaya walang talo talaga,..

Regards,...

@abc,
Nice! Sana ganyan din dito sa atin. Kung hindi ka satisfied pwede mo ibalik. Tutal you paid a good amount of money for that.

@ABCmotorparts: Buti dyan para ka lang nag-demo sa bahay. Dito for sure hindi pwede isoli ang Curved TV because of glare. Hindi kasi factory defect.

Napakahalaga ng customer feedback sa kanila kasi, sa lahat ng businesses dito, basta may reklamo ka, they will try their best to address it no matter what,...

One drawback of having a BIG FREAKING panel,
every movie, nagluluha na ang mata ko HAHAHA
eye strain na talaga sa laki,...

@abc,
Ako naninibago din sa laki ng tv. Coming from 32" to 49". But as they say, bigger is better. Hahaha

Have to watch 1080p content na and not HDTV lang.

The upgraded Ultra Clear Pro Panel eliminates reflections, and boosts the contrast ratio.

yeah right,...  :o

@ac,
Ganyan din ako nagaabang ng 2014 models, kaso patagal ng patagal nagmumura din naman ang 2015 models. May discount na rin on some models.
