Hi Foxy dont know if there ever was a SD 50" set. i think all 50's were 1368 X 768 from the get go? Seen an NEC 50 advertised the other day for $18XX dont know if they are any good Edited March 19, 2009 by achjimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kulfi Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 The horror ! A 50" SD TV !!!!! Might as well ask for a 100" with an analog tuner ...... Back to the real world, JB had advertised a 50" HD Samsung A410 on its website for $1596. Because it's on their site, I'm sure JB will offer it for that much even in QLD. Sydney's post-negotiation prices will be lower, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50mxe20 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 That is HD, just not full HD.Yep.Depends on brands pretty much. They can be had for under $1K but I would not touch them. Around $2K should get you a good one. The Pio's are bound to be more. Bit out of touch with pricing on these, these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowSpin Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I don't like the Samsung Series 4 plasmas. The blacks are worse than LCD, and it's a general disappointment of a panel because as a plasma it affects the entire picture quality. I'd go around trying to find a Pana TH50PX80. Also LG's new low-end plasma line-up is due for release really soon (around a month or so) - model number is 50PQ20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add the plasma screen's inherent reflective qualities to it and the overall PQ will go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowSpin Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I don't really notice any glossy finish on the Samsung S4 plasmas. It's their LCDs that are problems. I'm not sure if it even has a glossy finish on the plasma. But anyone who sees a Samsung Series 4 plasma on display - either look at the letterbox bars if it has a DVD playing, or turn it off. A plasma should be pretty black - the Samsung is disgracefully grey. And not 'grey' as in LCD's glowing black - it's almost full-on grey. It's pretty shameful when just about any of the LCDs on the market at the moment have a better black than that plasma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan1503559697 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I will make what some may think is a stupid statement but anyway i believe if your neighbour buys any of the major brands he/she will be happy, ie Pana,Samsung,LG etc,i have friends that have all of the mentioned in HD not full HD and all seem pretty good to me.So based on that i would tell them to look at price,warranty etc to make a decision. Cheers Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordey Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I recently purchased a PN-58A650, fantastic picture when I put my custom settings in. The only problem is that the set resets it's self to default after about 45 minutes. Has any one seen this before? Screen goes black then restarts in default.

ShadowSpin Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 PN58A650? what country did you buy that from? The reason might be because it's on shop demo mode - it resets the settings for the pesky little twerps who think putting a TV on black and white through the settings is funny. Probably the same kids who come up with ridiculous photos on the display macs. Wonder if those kids realise that the machines reset themselves every day and we don't go manually deleting all their mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
