Beautiful TV, super slim and light! *updated*,
// Update June 15 2014 //
** Smart View function **
I just wanted to kind of go into what someone can do with the Smart View function of the TV. I’ve had time to play around with it a little bit and so far am quite impressed. I’m using an iPad and iPhone with this app, I’m certain that the same type of function is available if you have a compatible Android device as well.
+ You can watch TV on the portable device, while you do other things on the TV, for instance I have my Mac Mini attached to the TV and am editing this right now while watching TV on my iPad. I have also played my game consoles on the TV screen while watching TV on the tablet.
+ You can walk around the house with the portable device, for instance if you need to do something while watching your favorite show you won’t miss what is happening. I’ve been able to walk all around the house and it worked everywhere I went. For me, I can see this being super useful during football season!
+ You can control the TV remotely, it has a very nice remote control screen and it works well.
Things you cannot do:
– You cannot use two portable devices at one time to view TV.
– You cannot view game consoles or a computer on the remote screen and watch TV on the TV monitor. This would be super nice if they would add it.
Minor issue:
– There is a few millisecond difference between the TV and mobile device, so if you’re watching in the same room it’s a little weird. I guess this is really to be expected though.
** Game Mode **
There is a game mode in the Menu selection. This mode makes video games SUPER smooth. I just thought I would mention it since I don’t believe anyone else has. When I switch to PS4/PS3 I turn on this mode and it really makes the action smooth.
** 3D **
You can adjust the 3D depth in the settings, the 3D looks great depending on the source. I’ve watched several 3D movies and these active shutter glasses aren’t as annoying as some of the other manufacturers glasses out there. 2D to 3D works as well as you can expect it to, it does add a neat depth to sources without 3D. I don’t use that very often. One thing that is nice about the 3D glasses for this TV is the cost, they are only around $20 per pair, so it’s not a big lift to buy extra ones.

I just upgraded to this TV from a six year old Mitsubishi TV which unfortunately began having a LCD issue. I really didn’t want to buy a new TV yet, but as it is…
I decided on this model due to price and features. Important features to me included being at least a 55″, LED backlighting, Wi-Fi, 3D, and HDMI 1.4a for the Audio Return Channel (ARC). This TV met all of my requirements and includes many extra features as well.
The TV itself is super slim, it’s about 1/3 as thick as my Mitsubishi TV was (it was a CCFL backlight LCD), it’s also really lightweight and has a really super-thin bezel — and I thought the bezel on my Mit was thin!
The contrast and clarity of the screen is very good, much better than my old set. The LCD runs on the cool side of the color spectrum — which is what I like. When set to “cool” in the settings it comes out too blue, I usually set my LCD’s to cool but on this one I went with the normal setting as it is already cool enough.
There are tons of built in features with this TV, however I’ll discuss some of the ones I’ve already ran into problems with below.
* Unboxing *
Well packaged, Apple-esq packaging. I received this with the Amazon Enhanced service, so it was unboxed, assembled, and tested by the delivery person (nice touch). In the box is the TV, Stand, a Standard Remote, a Smart remote (which functions a little like a touchpad in the air), an IR extender, and two sets of active shutter 3D glasses. Included also is a user manual and all the usual paperwork.
* Installation *
Easy. I watched the delivery guy assemble — it had two stand pieces that had to be installed on the back of the unit with bolts, then attached to the stand with bolts. It took him about two or three minutes to assemble and it was ready to plug in and go.
With the Audio Return Channel there are few wires actually going to the TV. I have two HDMI cables, the one from my receiver and one from a security camera DVR, the power cord, and the included IR receiver extender.
* Setup *
Again, easy. It walks you through the usual internet connection settings, and other settings. It’s truly Apple-esq…

Excellent TV but will require calibration,
I was expecting that the enhanced delivery would involve fixing the TV stand but they just pull the TV outside the package and switch it on to show that there is nothing wrong or damaged. I did opt to keep the packaging just in case if I had to return this.
Since this was a big screen both my wife and I took some time to figure out to how to fix the stand. After getting the stand and putting it up on the TV stand it really looked amazingly HUGE!!! After quickly finishing up the smart tv setup (I connected wirelessly) I connected it to an existing blu-ray player and played Avatar. With the default setting, it was good but I could see some clouding around the edges during total dark screens. After some more tweaking, I tried the calibration info provided (Just google for calibrate H7150 – It is the first site lcdtvbuyingguide)
It made a big difference but I again went ahead tweaking and finally calibrated it slightly differently for various sources (cable TV, Blu-ray, PC connection and smart TV). Once I reduced the backlight to somewhere around 11 or 12 all the clouding was gone and it was pitch black!
I found the Standard picture setting to be better (Energy savings) and having it as Warm2 (closer to 5600K).
Reduced the backlight and maximized the contrast (95 or 100). Turned off the rest of options including Auto motion except for cable TV and Blu-ray where I kept it to custom setting with a 3 point for Judder. If you choose any of the Standard, Smooth etc then you will end up with a Big Soap opera effect.
After the above tweaks, the picture is simply awesome and so clear and immersive! No issues with smart TV usage (including editing favorites etc). The only issue is sometimes when you browse using the built-in browser sites that contain embedded videos, the user experience becomes very slow and sometimes a lot of buffering.
With respect to the sound, for a 1/2″ LCD thickness the sound isn’t too bad. I have an existing onkyo home theatre that I hooked up and it is awesome!
I set the sound to be standard and switched on the DTS dialog for voice clarity and also set the equalizer in a < shape. With this setting, the TV volume is acceptable for general viewing.
So here are the best things I see with this TV:
A) The ultra-clear panel really does a great job (But you do see reflections of lights or windows in the screen)
B) The 1080 HD is very good and local cable channels are coming up with awesome clarity.
C) The smart TV – Netflix setup created an issue initially but after restarting the TV it got resolved (as mentioned in their website for trouble shooting). Infact I had Orange is the new black stream at “1080 Super HD” bitrate (I have FiOS). Youtube app is simply awesome! It actually streams in 1080 and my wife couldn’t believe it was actually streaming from youtube.
Vudu again had no issues as I had a few HDX movies that I streamed and everything was looking great!
D) The black level (if calibrated correctly) is comparable with a plasma. Pitch dark black!
E) Youtube pairing – I can search videos on my iPad and just stream it to the TV. Works very nicely.
Iam not a big fan of 3D but I did try a few trailers and was able to see the depth. Even the 2D to 3D conversion looked pretty decent. But as Iam not interested in 3D, so I just watch it in 2D always.
So if you can, go for the bigger screen. You will definitely not be disappointed!
