Samsung PN42B450



Best Bang For your Buck Flat Screen Plasma TV

This is a 42" 720p plasma TV made by Samsung. If your looking for a great quality picture and are looking to spend 600- 700 bucks this display will meet your needs. It stands out to me as a good pick because it has a VGA computer input unlike the similar Panasonic TC-P42X1 which has no computer input and is a little more money, yet still a great product. Of course the Samsung has HDMI, component & composite inputs. I really like the ATCS tuner built in so you can pick up free locally transmitted HD channels with any standard antenna. The difference between 720p and 1080p visually is small. The difference between 720p and 1080p monetarily is about double the price. Yeah you don't have the 1080p bragging rights but at the end of the day you have all the value of an HD plasma display at a great price. I'm an A/V enthusiast and I bought one. Don't get talked into all the 1080p hype if you haven't got a clue and you don't understand the difference. 720p is still HD and will look crystal clear. I went down to a local TV shop and compared this plasma with the new LCD/LED displays and found this plasma much easier to look at with a more true to life color. If your looking for a display to primarily watch movies & TV for a great price the Samsung PN42B450 will do the trick. If your primary use for a display is to impress all your friends and knock your socks off go spend twice as much and get a 50" 1080p model like the PN50B560. Hope this helps you figure out what your looking for.
