Digital camera Review: "Nice piece of kit" as the Brits say...
Summary: 5 Stars
The Samsung PN50A650 is a really, really nice HDTV. It fits perfectly in the space I had, the 56 incher would have been too big. I have a dark inner room with no windows and its supposed shiny glass is not really noticeable at all unless its turned off. Picture quality is top notch, I don't know why you would want any better. The "touch of class" burgundy color ring under the glass rim styling is also a nice touch, it really makes it looks ultra modern. I set up using settings available from Tweak-TV, didn't need much, out of the box default setting were right on. Samsung is coming out with a matching HT-BD7200 Blu-ray Home Theater System that will probably be my next purchase even though I just picked up a display model Panasonic Blue-Ray player DMP-BD35K to take advantage of the HD display. I selected plasma over LCD for several reasons, especially the pixel lagging problem in fast action I can see in LCDs. It does produce some heat though, and Ive noticed one pixel flickering but its only noticeable when all black background is playing and if your standing 3 feet in front of it. The hidden touch column of basic controls under the right lower edge of the glass rim are neat too. There is plenty of I/O including a set on the side of the TV instead of the back. While this TV isn't the top rated it certainly is #3, and I liked it better than the #2 Panasonic, I couldn't find the Pioneer Kuro to look at so don't really know how much better that #1 rated would be, but for the almost double price, I really don't see why you would want to go there unless you have unlimited disposable income and a bunch of friends that you have to impress with your largeness, I don't thing your eyes would be able to tell any difference? Price has drop another $100 since I purchased directly from AMAZON, instead of one of the other folks on their web site. The free shipping and set up in my living room plus one of the lowest priced from a company that had a very high rating turned out to be a good choice.
