Samsung HPR5052 50-Inch Flat Panel HD-Ready Plasma TV
Exceeds My Expectations
I recently bought this TV at Best Buy for $2400 - it was an open box item, but came with a 4 year in home warranty, so what the heck. I have to say the TV is just amazing. I knew they looked good from seeing them in the store, but the store lighting does not do it justice. The picture is amazing, even with just a plain digital signal. HDTV is mindblowing. I had no problems setting it to \\"stretch\\" the screen when displaying a standard channel. I was worried about sidebars, but no need for worry with this TV. The picture quality is the best available in my opinion, and even the sound from the TV is pretty good, so if you don't have surround sound yet, you will still be impressed a bit. I give it 5 stars, and kudos to Samsung for a great product!<br /><br />BTW, if you have a lot of regular DVD,s and can't afford to upgrade to HD-DVD yet, check out an upconverting dvd player, but make sure it used HDMI, which this TV supports.
