Customer Reviews

Wow amazing picture and superior quality!
I ordered my Samsung PN63B550 a week ago and it arrived 5 days later. Amazon ordering was easy and tracking my order online was very accurate on their delivery time. My tv was delivered two days before the actual delivery date from Amazon. It was ship by Pilot delivery service and they only sent one person to carry my tv from the delivery truck to inside my home. I had to help assist the delivery guy to take it out of it's packing material and place it on top of the stand. That was only thing i was dissappointed with I would suggest you call Amazon first before ordering and ask for a white glove deliver service instead. This was my first Samsung plasma Tv and I am thorougly satisfied with my order picture is wonderfull and movies on HD never looked so good on this 63" mammoth. If your looking for the best Tv for watching sports and movies look no further. I also saved $700 dollars when ordering through Amazon compared to Best Buy and Frys Electronics. Hands down the best Plasma Samsung has ever made. To many features to list like mega dynamic contrast and 600hz motion picture and 24fps for more relistic movie experience and uses 50% less energery compared to last year models.

Great TV
I have had my 63B550 for about two weeks now. The picture is amazing. The colors are great, and it's a bright set. No signs of IR at all. I'd recommend it.

Not like other Samsung products
I received this TV with great expectations, but within 10 minutes of viewing, I decided to go through the pain of returning this large item.

I have 2 other Samsung TV's, and I was particularly impressed with their A650 series LCD TV (LN46A650). I expected same type of vividness out of this B550, but unfortunately, this one doesn't even come close.

The brightness level is all off, and the color bleeds all over the screen. After some tweaking, I concluded that the trouble is something more fundamental. Basically we are dealing with something that cannot be adjusted via user interface. Flesh color looks dead on the screen, and HD signal doesn't help either.

Maybe they cut the cost too much this year. Maybe 550 series was never meant to complete with A650 series. I'm willing to give one more try with A650 plasma series from 2008, as B550 is the only item for 2009 so far.

I just hope I don't have to go through too much trouble returning this TV. I also hope that Samsung gets their act together and put out better product in the large category.
