THE PDP 50 NOT AS ADVERTISED

is the tech. reference i was working from. see for yourselves RE: (1) 15 v 10 watts and (2) 1080p.
(1) samsung specs a 15 watt sound system, not true. the sound system is the old 10 watt system.
(2) 1080p? another advertizing falsie. unless there is a mystery control button the “1080P” option does not exist. maybe your cable com. offers the “p” option, but other wise forget it. on personel computers the “p” feature was a platform independent signal powerhouse waiting-to-be-used enhancement.
(3) if you own the last version of the samsung plasma 50 and you want the best-of-best plasma technology – look to another vendor. keep what you have. it is still at the top 95% of the plasma TV market. wish i was fore warned about the PNP 50. i would have saved the money. there are no eyeball shaking “enhancements” on the PDP 50 that make it better that the older version and worth the extra cost.
(4)your first plasma? y..e..a..h. samsung is the best first choice for now. the lie about the sound system (10W v 15W), absence of a 1080p feature, and the the toady online crap are problems samsung must address. next technology upgrade for me won’t include samsung. RE: the need for online connectivity? what were they thinking? do we want some unknown big brother interrogating the tv system? definitely no asset.
(5)the handset control is plain “stupid”, that is to say poorly engineered and de-evolved v the same-last model. COLORed buttons have no function. a real disappointment if you want to indepently select picture mode AND sound mode.
i like samsung e-products, but the misrepresentions and absent dazilling enhancements to picture technology, i will look to other vendors when i by again in 2011.

The TV is beautiful. I got it just in time for football season. The delivery people blew off our appointment and I didn’t get the Plasma until a week later.

The TV was a great find. The Touch of Color option is really nice. The picture with the high definition is truly a pleasure to watch.

The TV arrived promptly and in perfect condition. The TV is needlessly complicated (as are most TV’s I’m sure). I can’t seem to turn it off without the remote and I can not program my cable remote to efficiently handle all functionality. The sound is better than I expected, but I didn’t expect much. The picture on non-HD stations is decent (not as good as my old Sony Vega tube TV). The HD stations are nice, but I was expecting much more. I guess I built up my expectations so high that the TV couldn’t meet them. I would suggest checking out the pictures on all sets you’re considering before your purchase.
