One Word - Amazing!

I was a die hard LED owner and I never thought I would ever consider purchasing a plasma. However over 95% of the LED LCD TVs on the market today use cheap LED edge lighting.
This TV puts even FULL BACK-LIGHT LED TVs to shame. The picture is uniform. The colors are vibrant. Fast action scenes look great. The blacks are black not grey like on an LED LCD. Also, the 5,000,000 : 1 contrast ratio is apparent. I was watching a basket ball game and it was so real I felt like I was at the game. I have not had a chance to use the 3d, as I don't really care about 3d, but I will update my review once I use it.
The design is also wonderful. It is only 1 1/4 inches deep and energy efficient. Also, it has unlimited streaming options and APPS built into the TV - via the Samsung Smart HUB.

I had this television for a week now and the picture is amazing! I just watched the Mosley vs Pacquiao fight and you can see every little detail on the fighters like the bruises and scratches. i haven't had time to calibrate it yet but i'm sure once i'm done the picture will look even more stunning. The only gripe i have is the remote. i wish that it would have had a universal remote. But all in all this is a very good television. I definitely would recommend this television to anyone shopping around for a new tv.

Great T.V!

I though that when I upgraded my 50" Samsung plasma, I was going to do it with an LED or LCD set. I have a 48" Sony LCD and am very pleased with its picture. Well, I found this set for an incredible price and took a gamble with another plasma. This TV is amazing, the plasma picture is actually BETTER than my Sony LCD!! Though I did have to make some picture adjustments in the beginning, the intital set up was not to my liking. The smart hub is also very fast, very little lag when scolling through apps. The TV's wireless connection streams flawlessly and was a snap to set up. I found the design of the set itself,clean and stylish. Love it!
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color

Fantastic Picture

What a great set. It has a great picture right out of the box. Easy to use features. Connects to my network with no problems. The 3D is amazing. I highly recommend this set. The only thing I can think of that is a negative is the speakers. The sound quality is not that good. I run everything through an AVR so its not a problem to me. If you don't have an AVR you may want to look at getting the sound bar to improve the audio.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, great looking style
Cons: poor built-in speakers
