    Pros: Look, picture quality, ease of use

    Cons: sound

    I purchased this tv two weeks ago. I compared to the Panasonic series plasmas. I chose this set over the panasonic because of the jet back professional appearance of this set versus the silver cabinet of the pansonic. Both pictures are remarkably the... same. The speakers on this set are hidden, their sound is ok, but a home theatre system enhances the sound nicely. I am still using an analog signal but can tell you the picture is fantastic and when using a quality DVD playerand home theatre system, you will feel like you just paid your cinema ticket! Since this set was destined for the Master Bedroom, I wasn't influenced by 1080 versus 720P sets that the sales reps were pushing, I did however buy the extended warranty incase of screen burn-in. Samsung is supposed to have auto screen contols on this set tp prevent it from happening, so far, so good. love the set! Read more Less

    Pros: Great picture, Almost every feature you could want

    Cons: be careful of screen burn, TV speakers are average

    Very nice picture, Decent value among Plasmas. Make sure to set your cable box to 16;9 screen. I didn't and I'm regretting it. The black bars on the left and right side are slightly burnt into the screen. Luckily, Samsung was extremely re...sponsive to the issue. The TV was still under warranty so they sent a guy out that showed me how to run screen protection, he showed me how to set my cable box to 16;9, he calibrated my surround sound(which was a panasonic), and showed me how to switch my movies to DTS in order to get the best out of my surround sound system. The TV's very nice, the service was excellent, but screen-burn will be a problem forever with plasmas, just be cautious not to leave the same image on the screen for too long. Read more Less
