Excellent Plasma,
I just got the TV and have had it 2 days. My other TV’s are a 42in Samsung LCD and a 50in sony rear proj. LCD.
I read about plasma vs. LED and went for the plasma. It is in the livingroom which has full height glass windows on one side. We get direct morning sun as windows face S/E.
I bought the set over internet shipped free. Need 2 people to move very large box into home. Need 2 people to hang the set. I unboxed and mounted hanger by myself.
If considering plasma, here are my comments:
1. 3D is excellent. Get the largest set you can afford/ fit in home.
2. Picture on this set is very very good. Very vivid, yet realistic color and contrast.
3. Remote is good, but not a high end look. Possibly because many use other combo remotes.
4. Glare is not an issue. The sony used to be in livingroom and glare was more of an issue.
5. Off axis viewing is outstanding. 2D excellent. 3D excellent from any angle.
6. I bought the light rechargeable 3D glasses. Easy setup. Comfortable. OK over your perscrip. glasses, but not great.
7. TV looks great. Thin, high quality.
8. I mounted this set on new Walker Edison 60-Inch Cayenne TV Stand (black laquer and black glass). They are made for each other!! Looks great and size of stand fits perfect (width) with TV. TV “floats” above table- mounted on the stand’s rear pedestal.
9. Network/ wifi works good. Allshare works but sometimes buggy, as playing videos can abruptly stop (sometimes). I am still figuring the wifi and remote out. Plaing music through the wifi or network to livingroom is so cool.
10. I do not hear buzzing unless audio is off and my ear is very close. And I only heard once when setting up system. Buzzing to me is not an issue. I don’t hear/ notice buzzing.
11. Fast motion picture is excellent. No artifacts, no ghosting that I have noticed. 2D and 3D.
Update – 6/26/11. Still love this set. No screen peeling issue.
Update – 10.6.11. No screen peeling. Love the set.

|Stunning, both On and Off,
The charcoal brushed metal & glass bezel, and the swivel stand make this one of the best looking TV’s out there. The picture is absolutely stunning! It’s not bad out of the box, but dial in a few adjustments on the picture menu, and just WOW! My settings are listed below. I had ordered a Blu-ray calibration disk, but I’m in no hurry to use it. Haven’t tried the 3D yet.
If you have an iPhone or iPad, be sure to get the Samsung TV Remote app — it includes a keyboard which makes entering login info much easier for the Smart Hub apps. And if using external speakers, you’ll need an optical “toslink” cable to get the sound to your receiver for the Netflix, Vudu, YouTube, etc. apps.
I updated the firmware via USB flash drive with no problems. (I turned off the Standby Mode Upgrade.)
The only negative so far is that the stand is a bit wobbly. It does the job just fine if you don’t touch it, but if you have small kids…
My picture settings: Movie mode, Cell Light 18, Contrast 89, Brightness 50, Sharpness 10, Color 51, Tint G51/R49, Color Tone Warm1, Noise filters Off, HDMI Black level Normal. Advanced Settings: Black Tone Dark, Dynamic Contrast Low. Everything else at the default settings.
No buyer’s remorse here — I got a great price from Amazon, and the scheduled delivery was right on time. Be sure to register your TV at Samsung’s website for an extra 3 months warranty.
