Good TV, GREAT PRICE!

white Reviewed By: Saponifi3d on 5/30/2008
Rating + 4
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: I picked this up locally for 850 dollars, for that price it can't be beat. The picture is great, and the contrast is AWESOME! Deep blacks and great colors. This is another great Samsung product.
Cons: There is only 1 composite input, not 2. For most people that wouldn't matter, but I wanted to hook up original xbox and wii, and i have to swap them right now.
Other Thoughts: The composite doesn't matter as much now that i found a hiding HDMI port on my cable box, so I'm just going to hook up my xbox360 and my xbox via component (currently cable + 360, and swapping the xbox and wii). My 360 is so old that it doesn't have the HDMI port :'(

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: I have owned this plasma tv for more than 2 years now. Excellent picture, games look amazing. Did I say picture is EXCELLENT. Stunning colors. When i bought it i paid more than double what newegg is charging now. Definitely would buy again, Best TV I have ever owned.
Cons: Screen burn in works, but could be more. Cant leave the tv on even with screen saver enabled (using as a monitor) After leaving the tv on for awhile, you have to go into menu and clear the screen with the all white function. After that everything is fine.
Other Thoughts: For my first plasma tv I couldnt have asked for more. As I mentioned before, I would definitely buy again. For the price it will be hard to beat, and 42" definitely gets the job done.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Price was $100 plus tax lower then I could have bought it locally. No problems so far. This replaced a 36" crt, Love the space I have now. I have no problems with the 720p. The picture quality is excellent. I've been buying pc stuff from Newegg for years but this is the only tv I ever bought.
Cons: Delivery was longer then smaller items usually are.

I love this TV

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: I bought this with my refund check this year and went up from a 27 inch CD tv to this. The difference is incredible. The picture is crystal clear the menus are easy to understand/navigate and playing 360 games on this just wipes away the picture difference from my old SD tv. Bright colors and sharp images/text.
Cons: None. This is the BEST tv for the price.
Other Thoughts: Okay I am a gamer and bought this for gaming. While my 360 and PS3 look incredible in HD my older systems do not. All my PS2 games are very grainy and ugly. This isnt a con wich is why I am writing it here. Dont buy this or really any HDTV and expect to have your old systems work well with them because that is just not how it works.
