OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Transform any room into a home theater with the Samsung PN50A450 50" high-definition plasma television. Its enhanced FilterBright screen eliminates glare and delivers a clear, sharp, 720p image at 1,365 x 768 resolution even in a sun-filled room. It can be easily viewed from nearly everywhere in the room with a viewing angle of 175 degrees. Samsung's Digital Natural Image Engine (DNIe) automatically enhances contrast, detail and white balance of on-screen images for the whitest whites, a full range of colors and darkest blacks.

A dynamic 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and 18-bit image processing delivers the sharpest image possible – including on-screen text. An innovative pixel-shift technology prevents burn-in to help you get the most out of your screen. The built-in NTSC/ATSC/Clear QAM tuner lets you receive over-the-air broadcast digital signals without any other equipment.

Samsung's SRS TruSurround XT provides natural, life-like 3D virtual surround sound experience through its twin 10W speakers. Of course, the PN50A450 really shines as part of a larger system and the Anynet+ HDMI-CEC system lets you control CEC-enabled components with only one remote control. Easily connect components using the three HDMI inputs along with a full range of other connectors.

Very satisfied

white Reviewed By: WoodYee on 4/18/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Pristine picture in High Def, very low glare even in bright room, pixel shift technology, 3 hdmi inputs, computer input,lots of adjustments and the price I paid ($1,440) made this a remarkable value.
Cons: remote is not universal, sdtv is so-so thru Comcast cable box with HDMI connection but any of these tv's are that way because of that signal.
Other Thoughts: The picture on this set is fantastic with an upconverting dvd player in 720p and HDTV content is awesome. Blacks are very black the brightness is unsurpassed at 30,000:1 and the viewing angle is phenominal. Didn't feel the extra money for the 1080p was worth it for me because I don't have anything that produces that signal. Was worried about burn in but haven't seen any yet and have heard it can be repaired if it does happen.

The Best Deal in Town

white Reviewed By: RAzOR on 12/2/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: 30,000:1 contrast, razor sharp, great colors, handsome bezel, 720P indistinguishable from 1080P at 50" size from more than 3 feet away.
Cons: Speakers are barely tolerable. Anything more than normal volume and the warble and complain.
Other Thoughts: I compared this set with the 1080P version right next to it using the same HDMI Blu-Ray source. I could see no difference at 4 feet away and I have very good sight. I could not be happier with this TV with the exception of the speakers (but I use the home theater for all sound).

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: i saw this TV at Best Buy and could not tell it wasn't 1080p. I wanted to get a 1080p plasma but my wife would only go so far with the money. I ordered this TV from NewEgg and could not be happier with it. Fast shipping great picture. Lots of control over settings. Did I say GREAT picture. Don't be on the fence with this one. Just buy it.
Cons: none

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I got this on sale for $1000, so I can't complain about that. Sleek style and beautiful picture.
Cons: Sound quality sucks. There were two tiny 3 inch 10 watt speakers that started to crackle after a few days for certain frequencies. Also, I occasionally get a robotic pitch after watching for a while. It fixes itself when you change the channel, but annoying nonetheless.
Other Thoughts: This tv is great if you have or are planning to get surround sound, otherwise you'll be very frustrated.
