TV Crack Under Heat
on July 17, 2012

Expertise:Expert
Loved the TV. After 11 months it cracked without warning. I did not hit it. It just popped. Avoid this set. Maybe the E - Series is better made.
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, runs hot and then breaks
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Exceeded my high expectations

I love the picture on this tv but the best part is the gaming experience. I have done a lot of research on the subject before buying the tv and found that the input lag was relatively low. I have owned 2 other HD tv's one plasma and one LCD and I could not play halo on either of them because of the input lag. On this TV, gaming is a very easy and there is very low input lag.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

Stellar picture, best ever Plasma
on April 21, 2013
Posted by: Cornbread
from Seattle area
Expertise:Expert
I'm fairly new into the HD world of things, I bought my first HD TV three years ago and from there, fell head long into the Home Theater rabbit hole.
My first three TV's were LCD's, a 32"/720p and two 42"/1080p
My first LG42" had a beautiful picture that was the best of all three flat panels and even bested my LG50" Plasma to follow. My home theater system was growing and with my last speaker upgrade, my wife lovingly said, "don't take this the wrong way, but with your new speakers, your TV (50") looks small". LOL, take it wrong? I was in agreement!
I did a ton of research and found out the Samsung PN64D8000 was rated as one of the best Plasmas on the market. I took my wife to the store where one was at, it being surrounded by three LCD TV's, I asked my wife which picture looked the best to her (without telling her which one was the Plasma), she picked the Samsung and then was shocked when I told her it was a Plasma.

If and when this ever needs to be replaced, I'll replace with the same model
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display

I have owned the PN64D8000 since 5/27/11. Overall I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I have watched many HD broadcasts as well as numerous movies and am constantly blown away by the viewing experience.
Picture quality is stunning, colors are vibrant and the TV has deep blacks. The menu provides numerous picture setting adjustments including full CMS and 10 point white balance. I also love the fact this TV is capable of decoding multiple video formats such as .mkv and .avi. Just put your favorite shows on a thumbdrive, plug it into one of the USB inputs and let the TV do all the work. To top things off cnet just rated this the best TV of 2011 (so far) even besting the Panasonic VT30 series.
I haven't used the SMART hub so I cant give my opinion . By all accounts it has one of the broadest suite of apps including popular ones like Netflix, Hulu and Pandora.
The only drawback appears to be a manufacturing defect that many people, including myself, are experiencing which involves the glare filter peeling in the upper corners of the screen. I have attached a couple of pictures. I plan to return the existing TV for a new one since I am still within my 30 day return period.
I have rated this TV a 5 for features, performance and value and a 4 for design because of the peeling defect. Once this issue is fixed I consider this TV a perfect 5 in all categories.
Cons: screen is peeling
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's nice to make a fairly large purchase and have that purchase go beyond your expectations. The picture on this set is amazing. The incredible picture coupled with it's size makes you feel as you are apart of what you are watching. Navigating through the features is very intuitive.
Pros: Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!
