Samsung B550 (LE40B550)

By Alex Jennings (cnet.co.uk)

The 40-inch, 1080p LE40B550 LCD TV offers remarkable value for money, outperforming its budget price point by a country mile. Its speakers lack bass, and other Samsung TVs have more features, but its picture performance is great and it looks gorgeous

Exceptional value for money ; really good picture quality ; gorgeous design ; good connectivity

Under-powered audio ; doesn&apos ; t offer as many features as most Samsung TVs

Despite an apparent lack of picture-processing power, the Samsung LE40B550 manages to produce really excellent images that leave those of all its similarly priced LCD rivals for dead. Movie fans may want to add a separate audio system, but it's still ...

Samsung PS50B550

By Ian Morris (cnet.co.uk)

The 1080p, 50-inch Samsung PS50B550 plasma TV isn't the most adventurous of sets but it's well worth splashing out on. Its high-definition and standard-definition pictures are both great, it sports a pleasingly retro design and it's got more ...

Impressive picture quality ; sound clarity is very good ; tried and tested technology ; plenty of inputs

Rose-black styling won&apos ; t appeal to everyone ; no bass from the built-in speakers ; unadventurous

We really like the Samsung PS50B550. It offers excellent picture quality with both high-definition and standard-definition video. The picture is slightly on the soft side, but it's not a huge problem and the image is still very good overall. If you ...

We're of the opinion that, if you really love movies, you should invest your...

By Joe Minihane (electricpig.co.uk)

TV buffs are getting all hot under the collar about the string of new LED TVs about to hit your local gadget den. So it's great to see a killer plasma alternative vying for your attention in an age when LCD and LED are threatening to take over ...

Stunning pictures, awesome sound, plenty of connectivity

By Lostpunkdc (newegg.com)

Hooked this bad boy up to my computer running dual 4870 sapphs with a total of 4gb of gddr5 ... Looks sweet, everything i run on it looks good, And the blu ray, is a dream, Buy this if you got the money and save yourself some by not getting a 1080

Superb Crispy colors, And Ubah Dark Blacks... 720p, whats that, this thing beats my friends 1080 lcd with ease ; Couldnt be happier ; Plus i ordered it Tuesday night, Got it Thursday morning... Go new egg

The stand is a pain in the behind, and the one screw didnt wanna screw in, i had to mess with it a lil, but it fit in fine

Great television

By Biri..! (newegg.com)

Also, the power cord could be longer. However, it does have a nice 90* angle to where it connects to the set for flush mounting. Did not purchase from NewEgg but often rely on their reviews due to higher tech knowledge.

Excellent value. I was in the market for a 720p 47-52inch, plasma or LCD - didn't matter. Reason being it was to be placed above the mantel (my size limitation) 14' away from the couch, which is too far away to notice the difference. There's a chart (Goog...

No S-video support. All ports are on the left side in the rear. It's a con since my stereo rack is on the right, requiring longer HDMI/Composite and Component cables, which Samsung supplies none of. Also, the power cord could be longer. However, it does h...

Manufacturer's Description

There's no sense in paying for things you don't need. That's the thought behind Samsung's H series plasma displays. The P50H gives you a cost-effective, best-in-class solution, with only the most common PC and video connections. No paying for connections you won't use. The high 1,300 nits brightness and 10,000:1 contrast ratio mean messages are clear and bright, even in glass-ceilinged shopping malls. You can also add a digital TV tuner and networking capability to your H series display with...
