the samsung PS51E550 has a brilliant picture quality

 

My husband always wanted a large flat screen tv on the wall so we got the Samsung 51" plasma screen. The quality of the picture is excellent but, having had lcd screens in the past, we didn't realise how much light affected the screen. The tv is on a...

There seem to be little to no reviews on this TV on the internet at the moment. I bought this model in August 2012. The reasons I wanted this model is because of the 600Hz Subfield Motion and because it has 3 HDMI ports. I have a media centre, and XBox...

Don't work

Great picture but arrived dented despite perfect packaging

TV of the future, smart, sleek, fantastic viewing

 

Got this TV and WOW!! It has got to be one of the best purchases we have made. The set up was easy, the picture quality in HD is excellent, but.... 3D is something to behold. Little girls blowing bubbles into you living room is a must see. We have Sky...
