Fantastic TV

 

Bought this TV for $1699 from New Egg with free shipping, what a steal!!! The picture on this Plasma is fantastic. The only issue I had was the stand. The first one i got titled to one side, there was a 1" height difference on one side... Replacement...

At $1,699 with free shipping and no sales tax this TV is the best thing out there

Cheap Stand. 1st one was defective

display only

 

Great picture

Sound is a great example of over-educated and under qualified engineering. This set should not have speakers in it because of the noise generated by the power supply. Get buzzing even with the speakers turned off and the ferrite core installed on the...

Fantastic TV - watch out for factory problems

 

Just as good as anything else out there on the market, but I wonder about the failure rates.

Excellent features, great picture quality. Full 1080p, many inputs to choose from. Great as a computer monitor or for using with PS3. Has anti-burnin pixelating technology. I have left still images up on the TV and have experienced no burn-in. Just be...

Factory soldering problems. Widespread problem with power supplies failing. If it happens under warranty, you won't have to pay, but you will be inconvenienced.

Plasma PN58A550

 

2399 was a great deal

Newegg once again delivers, AIT (Land Air Express) was great. The TV does everything it advertises to do and does it in a spectacular way. Even the Basic analog cable looks good. hooked up to the panasonic BD55 this TV is un beatable. My wife even...

Love it!

 

For the money you really can't beat this, plus free shipping is like another $150-$200 discount compared to other places.

SD Quality, HD Quality, colors, blacks, ease of use, big. Finish on the TV is fantastic, looks good on or off.

None so far, I love this thing and this is the second one I've bought from Newegg. Bought a 50" version of this for someone else.

MIghtmare on Internet Street

 

Unclear to me that I will ever do business with NewEgg again. Their service is terrible.

None. Never received a working product.

First Plasma TV delivered - damaged. Told by shipper no problem they take it back. Call NewEgg and told best solution is to order another TV so I do this.

Outstanding Plasma at a great Newegg Price

 

I absolutely love this Plasma. I researched TV's for a very long time and decided that Plasma was the best solution for me. Most LCD tv's I saw seemed to have motion blur and the colors did not seem as natural to me (except for the most expensive LCD's...

Impressive Black Levels

TV is heavy. Now it is not as heavy or bulky as my previous RP CRT tv, but it is about 160 lbs. Make sure you have another strong helper to lift the TV with you.

Centerpiece of my dream home theatre

 

Overall I am very happy with this TV. I am disappointed by the extensive burn in disclaimers in the user manual, but I have not had a problem. I played Civilization IV on my TV for several hours without a problem. I did run the burn in screen saver for...

standard definition picture quality ; screen pivots

expensive ; poor picture mode design ; scary burn-in disclaimer

Samsung PN58A550

 

Getting a reasonably priced plasma set isn't all that hard in 2008. There are plenty of options for consumers, and sets have reached a price that many households would consider attainable. Getting a reasonably-priced plasma set with a...

Good price, great desing, very good colors

screen glare, black levels could be deeper
