What's great about it:?Samsung Plasma HDTV with fantastic picture quality, sound What's not so great:?None so far "Great TV with fantastic picture quality, sound if you love watching movies and sport this is the TV you want own. I did a lot of research before I bought this TV for the features like sound, size and picture the amount of money you spend it is a good deal. from Bestbuy.com beautiful..im very happy with this purchase...but i still have an unpeaceful feeling knowing it is plasma, especially when i use it to play games..player with energy bar. ^ ^ from Amazon.com This is a fantastic tv for the money and includes great functionality. I have owned Samsung HDTVs and was surprised by the ANYnet device control functionality. from Amazon.com Samsung PN58B550 58-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV This TV is nothing less than perfect! Its been everything I hoped for. from Amazon.com It's awesome -- a plasma for under 2K. There is a slight buzz, but it is barely noticeable when watching a movie. from Amazon.com I purchased this unit at HH Gregg for $1340 out of box special. Few small scratches especially on base which I do not use base and don't watch the frame. from Amazon.com This TV is amazing, so long as your room is large enough to handle it. This was my first Plasma TV and while that takes some time to get used to it looks superb, especially for sports. from Amazon.com I recently purchased the PN58B540 which is pretty much the exact same display as this one. I heard about the buzzing noise these sets tend to make, but thought I'd give it a try. from Amazon.com I chose the Samsung because of its high rating in Consumer Reports. This TV meets or exceeds all my expectations. from Amazon.com When I ordered this from Amazon I was slightly apprehensive. There were not many reviews here or anywhere for that matter. I waited 3 weeks to do my review so I could get used to the TV. I had read about "pink" whites and "buzzing" from the unit on other Samsung plasmas (this one included). from Amazon.com
