Product Description
High definition 720p plasma has never looked so good. Thanks to its E-Panel technology, Samsung's PN50B450 is able to deliver stunningly smooth video reproduction. First, 600Hz Subfield Motion improves the continuity between frames, creating seamless, lifelike motion. Second, an incredibly fast 0.001ms pixel-response time minimizes blurring in fast-action sports and movies. Further, FilterBright technology reduces panel glare for improved performance in rooms with ambient lighting. Finally, a Game Mode speeds up processing and sharpens detail for an optimal gaming experience.

 Awesome HDTV!!! July 26, 2010
Carlos
I paid less than a thousand for it and like many other people say, it exceeded my expectations! My local cable company has like ten HD Channels and I tell you, they look amazing in this plasma, I don't have many words to describe the beautiful picture you get from an HD source like cable or better yet; Bluray player. I gave it five stars because thats the maximum I can give, but I would have given a hundred if I could.

We have never had a large screen TV and were using a RCA 24' from 1987. My wife and son went to Costco in search of a 32" LCD to greatly enhance our movie watching experience. We're not big on HD cable so that wasn't a consideration. Once in the Costco store they perused the TV section and after finding the 32" we were after they set out to do the shopping and would come back at the end to pick it up. Once they had the cart full, they returned about 40 minutes later to get the LCD. My son wandered down the isle to the front of our 42" Samsung. They had just put the clearance sticker on and as it was a floor model the price was $480.00, a mere 20 dollars more than the 32" LCD. Needless to say a no-brainer. I never realized watching a movie at home could be so engaging as watching it through our PS3 blueray. I would recommend this set to any one, and the difference between the 720 and 1080 is a sales ploy. I don't doubt there are differences if your watching a 60inch screen. This is an amazing TV, and for the price it was one of the best purchases we have ever made, hands down!

I own the older version of this TV and have been very happy with it. I'm looking to buy a new, larger TV now, and am definitely sticking with Samsung.

I just got this 42" Samsung Plasma TV (Model: PN42B450) about a month ago from Best Buy, and I have a $70 Sony DVD player that has HDMI out hooked up to it and ICE-AGE 3 (widescreen) looks awesome! on it, and that's with the Picture settings on the TV set at: Mode Standard, Cell Light 4, Contrast 80, Brightness 43, Sharpness 50, Color 50, Tint G50/R50, and in Advanced Settings I have the Black Tone, Dynamic Contrast, and Edge Enhancement turned off.
Also, the color and black levels on this Plasma TV look very good!

Okay I've been doing some research and reading all the reviews. Firstly, I've owned Samsung HTV's before and have always been happy with their equipment. During my review of a bedroom replacement HDTV I came across the Samsung PN42B450. Since I recently removed all my cable boxes in the house except for the HDTV/DVR (Comcast Georgia) I needed a HDTV with a built-in tuner to scan Comcast signals using IRC. Thankfully this HDTV rocks and found everything I originally had and even though some channels aren't HD picture quality is still amazing.
If you need a HDTV and have Cable feel confident in knowing this HDTV will indeed pickup all your Cable (unscrambled) channels... not just 12 but I'm talking about 130!! I don't have anything else added to it yet but looking into a DVD/R and will update accordingly. FYI Audio Output is indeed optical only so beware for your bedroom home theater people... you might need to upgrade.
