No plasma Bugaboos with this set

Strengths: antiburn technology,antiglare screen,easy setup and adjustments,blacks areblack and whites are white

Weakness: none yet

Great set for the money,had every intention of purchasing a 1080/120 LCD,stood in bestbuy comparing this samsung to the LG LCD 1080/120,first thing i noticed was about $250.00 difference,the Plasma was superior in color Blacks were black and whites were white,could not tell the difference in clarity of picture from the LG 1080 to the Samsung 720,one rap on plasmas was the glare factor on the...

42" plasma pn41b450

Strengths: The picture is unmatched with any t.v it's size

Weakness: I haven't seen any so far

I think this is the best t.v for the money, I did research and stood in many electronic stores comparing the picture quality and I think that for the money and even though the resolution is only 720 but so is your cable, you can't go wrong, because when the t.v becomes obsolete in a few years your not out that much to go buy another one. I watched blu ray in the store with a expensive LCD right...

Bought 3 of them

Strengths: Great picture out of the box, minimal adjustments needed.

Weakness: Speakers, but that's what surround sound is for.

Bought 1 of these sets in July, 2009 to check out the picture quality using an HD satellite feed, looks great. That one is behind my bar. Bought 2 more in November, 2009 to use for picture-out-of picture mounted towards the top of my ceiling in my basement above an 82inch DLP. Everything looks great, no glare.

Nice TV

Strengths: Great picture, even if it is 720p...don't think 1080p makes that much difference, except for the price.

Weakness: Speakers...but for me, they're good enough.

Bought the same TV at BJ's and saved @ 75 dollars. Also, didn't have to deal with the " oh we don't have that tv in stock " line that this store uses. I think its called the "bait and catch" move.

Samsung PN42B430

The Samsung PN42B430 is a lower-mid-range 42" widescreen plasma HDTV. It has a lower price point than Samsungs other similar plasma TVs because it has a native resolution of 720p and a contrast ratio of 2 000 000:1 as opposed to 3 million, and also because it has fewer inputs. It has Samsungs e-panel glare reduction feature, as well as the Anynet universal remote simulation, as long as other A/V...
