Default 3D glasses

Just got a new tv and has 3D , wanting 2 pairs of rechargeable glasses .

Anywhere cheap in the uk?

Loads on eBay from south Korea for around £77 for 2 pairs.

Or any deals at a reputable online store?

It's a samsung btw.


Cheers in advance

What difference does that make over the standard glasses?

its all based on Texas Instruments technology iirc so all active shutter glasses should work with all tvs and projectors. I might be wrong as im using information based on a Projector, but id expect its the same. id suggest looking on the AV Forums. heres a link:

so are the 3d tv's that you don't need glasses for a lot dearer? saw my first one 3 weeks back when I was out in Taipei, I found it so much better than watching with glasses.

maybe, I think the guy said it was viewable from 9 different angles, it was weird, walking round to the side and seeing a aircraft wing coming out of the screen.

Is the tech any good? I might be after a new TV soon and am tempted by 3D. Not experienced it yet, not even in the cinema. Are shutter glasses uncomfortable to wear due to weight?
