Samsung 64" Class (64" Diag.) 1080p 600Hz Plasma HDTV PN64D8000FXZA

Pros: Great price on a highly rated TV. Samsung's are consistently among the top plasmas each year. Did hours of research an concluded that based on performance and price this was the TV to buy and I was not disappointed.

Delivery was a breeze. Drive helped me open and inspect before signing and did not rush me in looking it over. It was in perfect condition and continues look and work perfectly.

Cons: NONE

Pros: Just bought this plasma at my local Lowes store on sale. It's razor thin and the video quality is amazing. I also own a 51 in plasma by Samsung (720p) and it still works like a charm. However, this new 64in is crisp, fast, and has lots of good features. I also appreciate the quality 3D (although I'm not into 3D as much as a good 2D movie).

There are 4 HDMI's which is 2 more than my 51in and makes connecting my computers, Blu-Ray and cable box super simple and cuts the clutter massively. Also, the wifi connection is easy peasy.

There are many other pro's but I think a review with only pros is useless to the consumer.

Cons: 2 cons. (#2 is more important)

1) Sometimes, when you are on an app and want to get off that app and go to Smart Hub, it can take a solid 30 seconds which for its price is way too much time. (I have 20MB/s net so it's not my internet) When I click Smart Hub on the remote, I expect it to get there in 2 seconds max. This is not that big of a deal because I don't use too many apps (Netflix mostly and skype sometimes), but I know there are younger folks out there who love their music and video apps and this would really stress them out.

2) I can't connect my Logitech HD webcam to this TV. Either Logitech needs to conform to Samsung standards or Samsung needs to work like my computer which can download standard drivers from Logitech website and be compatible with them. I really don't want to go pay $170 for the Samsung Webcam after I just bought this TV, a new blu-ray surround system and a fireplace stand which cost me already a lot of money (around $4k).

Surely Samsung (or Logitech) can come to some sort of agreement in which the consumer benefits. They need to stop jerking us around. When a TV is valued at $3700, it better shine your shoes on the way out, if you know what I mean.

Other Thoughts: Other than my two cons, there is no other TV out there that can compare to this Samsung. I've done my research. The video quality is brilliant. The 3D is nice (as long as you have the battery powered glasses of course). The simplicity of the sleek and slim design is supreme.
