Samsung PN50A450 50-Inch 720p Plasma HDTV

I have wanted a flat screen since they first came out and it was about 400 dollars an inch for anything over 19 inches. I took the plunge and ordered this set in August 08. I can say nothing but good things about the screen and features thus far, the picture and settings are just awesome. It is very hard to go to any of my families houses and watch their televisions.

This is an awesome TV!! had a great deal from BB...Wasnt sure of the 720p...but i think its great!!!

Well, I had my reservations. Was 720p 'good' enough? Was the 'burn-in' going to be an issue if I played Halo or other video games?

After spending time with this TV I've learned that 720p looks INCREDIBLE from 7' away in my living room, the color & definition are fantastic even at cool color temp. and low brightness / contrast, and there's no burn in at all after playing hours of Halo (it was justified, I had to celebrate my new TV a little bit).

All my doubts were erased as soon as I got to know this TV. It's got a breathtaking picture and looks sleek, too.

NOTE: I got this at Circuit City, not Amazon. As of Sep. 23, 2008, CC has this for $999, $100 cheaper than Amazon's price. Just something to note when you're shopping around.

We bought the Samsung plasma to replace our 2 year old Samsung DLP which is going to our vacation home. We expected the picture to be a bit better but WOW. The delivery service was exceptional and the price competitive. After I placed the order, I found the same set in my area for $100 less. I would have cancelled the Amazon order but would have had to pay a re-stock fee. Oh, well, we love the set and had to make zero adjustments. The 720 is fine - we just wanted a crisper picture and that's what we have! For regular tv viewers as we are, this is about the best you can get.

I bought this TV less than a month ago. Great buy at a bargain price, right at 1k dollars. I dont mind its 720p compared to 1080, i dont notice a difference. The adjustments that can be make are very easy to do and thought out. The TV is large and also looks stunning in its gloss black finish.

I agree with all the posters above but my only complaint is the remote. For spending all this money, atleast have illuminating buttons. I hate having to closely look when its dark to see what im pushing in. Thats the only complaint i have, the TV itself is a 10/10.
