Legacy 3D HDTV that will support Full Blu-ray 3D!! Jul 20, 2010 Hey, here's a great 3D-HDTV. The PN50A450 (and PN50B450) are fantastic deals. Yes, they are 720p, but the picture's great and the human eye can hardly see the difference between 720p and 1080p! Also, they are 3D-Ready HDTVs (Checkerboard format). Now, it's been said that these televisions can't play the new full hd blu-ray-3d disc, but that's not true. I watch the new Blu-ray 3D discs via my pc (you need a strong graphics card that supports 3D) in the "Checkerboard format" through "Cyberlink's PowerDVD 10 Ultra 3D software" ($99). I use the 3d-emitter and battery powered shutter glasses ($60 each) that I bought from "Tridef" (DDD) when I bought their 3D Experience software (Non-3D) to watch the old fashion Field Sequential-3D dvds back in 2009. It's true that a new stand-alone-3D blu ray player won't work with these hdtvs, but I've watched the new full Blu-ray 3d disc "Cloudly with a Chance of Meatballs" via my computer with Cyberlink's Blu-ray 3d software (which will play in checkerboard) and the 3d was great with no visable ghosting!
Mine completely died after 2 yrs Apr 21, 2010 I would not buy this Samsung model. Mine has completely died after 2 yrs.
Two Years Later... Apr 21, 2010 I have had this tv for about 2 years now. At first, I liked it. When my dad would come over though, he would complain that it didn't look like HD...but that never bothered me enough to figure it out.
What does bother me, however, is that now there is a picture that is burnt onto the screen. I must have had the tv/cable on pause for a few minutes. It was on one of those news shows that have the red toolbar looking thing on the bottom of the screen (Nancy Grace, I think). Well now, no matter what channel or what dvd I have on, you can see the red toolbar from the news show on the lower 1/3 of the screen. You dont see the actual toolbar, but the picture in that area gets discolored and looks red. I am very disappointed.
I guess this tv is ok if it goes in the bedroom or kids room. I would not recommend putting it in the living room where guests watch tv.

Dead Pixles after one year Mar 04, 2010 After a year TV pixles die and not covered by manuf DO NOT buy insurance through CPS Central because you get ripped off. Once it is determined the TV is bad CPS Central makes you ship the TV back before a replacement is shipped and the cost of shipping is extremely high and you loose on ther replacement value.

Buyer beware Buy another Brand of TV not samsung Mar 03, 2010 I purchased a samsung 50" plasma tv on march 14 2008 and it started makeing a sparking sound in january of 2010.picture went out on february 14 2010.TV repair tech says it will cost $700.00 to repair. A $1300.00 dollar tv should last more than 23 months.this is not uncommon on samsung tvs.do your research before buying one.Don't get ripped off like I did.

Consumer Reports Says Buy Your HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2008) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2007 and June 2008. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its December 2008 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com and Crutchfield.com came closest.
