I bought this tv based on price and reviews.It was very easy to set up. The picture quality is awesome. But like others
this set has a buzzing noise that is very annoying. i sit 14 ft
from tv and can hear the buzz when the volume is set anything below 10. Have set up a service appointment.
We will see.

Great TV for the Money

I had to replace a 60" Sony SXRD and I went to as many sources as I could to find a TV that could be an ample substitute. I am very pleased with my choice. After taking a few days to get used to the slightly darker picture versus the LCD. The picture is stunning. I also had to get used to the glare of a plasma screen, but depending on your placement and ambient room lighting, I never see it from my normal 3 seating positions. I plan to mount it eventually and that should only help.
As others say, the audio is not good, but looking through reviews of other comparable TVs, none have "good" ratings and more times than not, if you have this TV, you also have some sort of theater setup so the audio is not a problem.
I have a lot hooked up to this TV (HD Tivo, HD cable box, DVD recorder, Blu-ray, External hard drive filled with movies, and a Wii) and have most of them run into the TV via HDMI and then I have an optical cable to carry the audio from the TV to the receiver and the sound is great.
The only cons I really have about the TV are I REALLY liked my Sony's capabilities of side by side picture where I could watch two HD inputs simultaneously on 26" screens and not the PiP style on this model. I have a Samsung 40" LCD model as well and it has that capability so I'm not sure why they can't put the feature on the larger models.. The other is the video input changing via the remote. I have a Harmony remote and it is impossible to directly change from HDMI1 to HDMI4 without scrolling through HDMI 2 and 3 to get there. Such a pain and kind of defeats the purpose of my expensive remote.
I also have the TV networked via cable to access my computers to view pictures and movies through media share. Great feature.
I would buy this TV again especially at the price I paid.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: pip not side by side view, input changing
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Value And Great HD Picture

I own two 42" Panasonic plasma televisions and one 55" LG LED/LCD. I would put this television at the top as far as HD picture quality. The SD picture quality could be better, but HD channels and BD movies look excellent.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color
I would recommend this to a friend!

My first Samsung TV
on February 27, 2011
Posted by: Sinbad
I must say, i enjoy this product. It was giving to me as a house warming present. I enjoy watching t.v. now. I just wish there was a few more outputs/inputs on the tv. Just purchased a Samsung blu-ray player and the picture looks amazing.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, picture quality
Cons: lack of input/outputs
I would recommend this to a friend!

Big, thin, great looking plasma TV

This TV is my 7th HD television purchase, but my first ever plasma. I am so glad I went with this Samsung TV. It offers a stunning picture (especially in low light environments), great color reproduction, stunning refresh times and some nice features and connectivity options. SD and HD content looks great, whether it's Blu-Ray, HD Gaming, Wii, or cable content. Everyone in the family was blown away by this television after it was easily set up in the living room. Great job Samsung. I will be returning for more.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, black levels, refresh times
I would recommend this to a friend!
