@Craig02 What's wrong with the panel in the 50" W8 in 2014? It will be very similar to last year's W6, but with (surely) better motion and you get more HDMI inputs. The W7 will also be similar to last year's W6, again, hopefully with better motion.
The 2014 W6 seems to be using backlit LED (not with local dimming) as they are very thick. Looks like the 50Hz panel trick again, too. They must be Samsung panels - but won't be the highest grade ones - expect similar or slightly better performance to last year's R4 series (I wouldn't recommend those R4 sets as they are like LCD TVs from 2008 and had laughable performance, in spite of what the punters on Amazon say, although you can see they are mostly people buying it as a second TV!).
