Consumer Reports top rated this TV and they were right! The picture is terrific and the set is easy to use. Forget the virtually invisible controls on the front of the set, but the remote is great with easy to use on screen menu. And the initial set-up was easy; no help is needed.
The Amazon price ($1325) was very close to the lowest available, the shipping was free, and dealing with Amazon was great as usual. I could not be more pleased with both the product and with the Amazon experience.

For the price, this has got to be one of the best televisions out there. Great black levels. Nothing really negative about this TV for a fairly new person to HDTVs. The White Glove service that delivered this TV was quite amazing too. They delivered it, unpacked it, and even placed it for me. Two enthusiastic thumbs up for this purchase.

I shopped for TV's for nearly two months, and settled on this one after long consideration and looking at every other plasma on the market today. I can't be more happy with my decision. This television is absolutely amazing in every respect. The picture is extremely clear, bright, and the colors are accurate. You can't beat the deal that Amazon is offering with the $150 off coupon code, but its still a great deal at $1299, which is what I payed for it.
My TV is in a pretty bright room with a large window on the side, and I see very minimal glare during the day time, and no glare at all at night. The wireless networking and DLNA features are pretty cool too. You can wirelessly stream HD movies, music, or photos from your computer to the TV. All you need is an Ethernet cord to hook up from the TV to your modem. The Yahoo Widgets allow you to see news, weather, etc., but I don't think I'm going to use that. It's cool to impress friends and family with, but it's a lot easier to just look that stuff up on your computer.
The TV speakers are OK, but I would recommend getting a surround sound system if you're going to have such a great TV. Watching any sports in HD will blow your mind. I have At&T Uverse and everything in HD looks amazing. I have yet to see what Blu Ray stuff looks like, but I know it's even better.
I've heard about some buzzing issues, but I hear no buzzing whatsoever from my panel. Additionally, the panel keeps pretty cool. You can't feel any warmth unless you're touching the glass itself.
Buy this TV and you won't be disappointed!!!
By Mickey Spindler (Abilene, TX)
Amazing...this TV is absolutely suberb! I spent over 6 months researching the pro's/con's of the latest technology and my decision to purchase this TV was a perfect decision. I did get some help from other reviewers and on this TV they were correct. Samsung doesn't make everything perfect (like some of their Blu-Ray players :-( #; but this Plasma TV is incredible. Vivid colors that are realistic. Plasma rocks over LCD for depth and motion blurring. This 50-inch is a monster in size from our old 20-inch CRT #lol). But one word describes the quality and price point for this TV---Wow! You won't be disappointed! Great connectivity with all your components and LAN too.

First I would like to say, this tv is well worth the money, especially with the $150 off. But if you truly want to experience the most this feature packed tv has to offer. Make sure you run the audio through a external surround sound system. Can't believe the "reviews" I see out there about the "buzz" these Samsung plasmas make, or "how weak the internal speakers are." If you don't use a surround sound system, the spectacular picture will leave your senses craving more in the audio department, count on it.
Replaced a 32" Sharp Aquos LED with this set. Watched a football game on it for the first time yesterday, and could not believe my eyes,(and ears) It was as if I was at the game, only without the ticket scalpers, and the $9 beers. Can't imagine many people finding fault with this unit, other than just nit-picking. That's why my review focused on the one thing it is missing, or not included, an external surround sound system. I am very happy with this tv!
One more thing, noticed the item specification says no PIP, this is only partially true. This unit does have Picture In Picture while watching video from a different source. For example, I can watch a DVD and surf the tv chanels looking for a football game, etc... But, I don't think you can use it for surfing tv channels while watching a tv channel.(video from the same source) Hope this helps
