3The PN60E6500 is well worth the extra $200
By J. Beecher
The product photo for these TVs (the 550 series) shows a matte, anti-reflective screen. This is misleading. The 550 series does NOT feature an anti-reflective screen. It has no anti-reflective coating at all. It is as reflective as glass, and consequently not the best choice for rooms with windows.Amazon's product description for the 550 series is identical to its description for the next model up (the 6500 series). Reading the two descriptions, a reasonable person will conclude that the only difference between the 550 and the 6500 is the type of stand that the TV sits on. In particular, both TVs are said to feature a "Real Black Panel" and both screens are shown with the same matte finish. So why not get this TV (the 550) and save $200?Here is the crucial difference: This TV (the 550) has the basic "Real Black Panel," which Samsung describes as an "advancement in software technology that provides deeper and darker black levels for bolder hues, higher contrast, and smoother, clearer picture quality." In other words, the basic "Real Black" is purely a function of software, not of anti-reflective coating.The 6500 on the other hand has "Real Black Panel Pro," which Samsung describes as "An advancement within the panel structure of the plasma and a software improvement that depicts blacker blacks, bolder color, higher contrast and exceptional picture quality. This technological improvement provides the most cinematic viewing experience available." In other words, it has the software as well as the anti-reflective coating that distinguishes the high-end Samsungs. Amazon mentions that the much pricier 7000 and 8000 models have "Real Black Panel Pro," but neglects to mention that the 6500 has it too.Again, it depends on the lighting situation in the intended room, but in most situations, the 6500 is well worth the added expense.

5Very pleased with this TV
By KAC
I am very pleased so far with this TV. I have bought several large flat panel TVs over the last few years and this one I am really pleased. I have been pleased with Samsung in general and only buy Samsung now for displays/TVs at this point (have 4 large screen TVs and 5 monitors in my house). As others have mentioned, it is a new model for this year and really packs a ton of features in for the price. I love plasma (over LED and LCD) and was really surprised how the weight has come down. The picture is great. One feature I really wanted to make sure I got was the ethernet input because with more and more stuff moving to internet, I felt it would be a good idea to have. I am finishing a basement and have the opportunity to run the ethernet right to where i will put this tv. Don't get me wrong, the built in WIFI works perfectly too, I just wanted to have this option too and many other models don't have this. One thing I was not aware of is that it doesn't have a VGA input. I was planning on using that to hook up a computer. For me its not a big deal as I can use HDMI, but thought I would mention as I didn't notice that before ordering. Overall I think this is a great TV and a great deal - would definitely recommend and I am seriously considering buying another one for another room (yes, I have been told I have a problem with buying too many TVs).UPDATE (4/15/12) - After several days of usage, I noticed a buzzing sound when sitting in just the right (or wrong depending on how you look at it) place. Sitting directly in front and about 8 feet away I noticed a pretty load buzzing sound. If I moved closer or to the side I did not really notice it. (I couldn't really try moving back based on the way the room is where I had it). I actually wasn't sure what it was at first and I turned everything down and could still here it. I then traced it to the back of the TV and sure enough I could tell it was coming from the TV. I took the TV back because of this - I am not willing to live with that. I really like the TV and its features otherwise, so I ordered another one and am awaiting delivery from Amazon tomorrow. I did some research and it seems this "buzzing" issue has been experienced by other people on a variety of Samsung plasmas, but I'm hoping its just luck of the draw and I get one that doesn't do it this next time. I have two other Samsung plasmas in my house already (older models) and have never had any issues. I'll post an update when I find out if this new one does the same thing.UPDATE (5/5/12) - So I received the new TV from Amazon and it works perfectly. No buzzing sound with this one. So I'm back to being very pleased. As I mentioned in my initial post, I was seriously considering purchasing another one and in fact I just placed that order tonight. Here's hoping I get one without the buzzing issue again because its really a great TV for the money.

5A High Class TV at a Common Man's Price
By HarvDog
Summary:If you are looking to get an amazing TV at a fantastic price, you've come to the right place. This TV has an absolutely fantastic picture, surprisingly good 3D features, and an array of useful Smart features. Whether you're a movie fanatic, or a hardcore gamer, this TV will certainly impress. Add in the features of the TV on top of the outstanding quality that Samsung continues to deliver and then look at the price, and you have a no competition situation. Take it from someone who normally has buyers remorse, I love this purchase and have no remorse over it.Picture Quality:The picture quality on this TV was a huge surprise to me. I had read the reviews on here which talked about the outstanding quality and Plasma's have always impressed me more than other TV technologies, but this TV was absolutely outstanding. This TV looks great not only on HD, but even on SD content. I have Charter Digital Cable with HD and my box is hooked up through HDMI. As one would expect the HD channels look great. What really impressed me is the crispness of the TV on even SD content. Most SD content is filmed in 4:3 aspect ratio and on large HD TVs such as this one, they tend to have issues with pixelation. The picture on this TV is sharp and clear regardless of the stream quality.Sound Quality:My apartment isn't particularly huge and the sound on the TV is not necessarily something to speak of, but it is surprisingly good. For a normal sized room it gets the job done. My next investment is a full surround sound system and when I get to that point, this TV is equipped to handle it with the optical audio out jack. In the meantime though, I can continue to enjoy the sound quality the TV has built-in.3D Content:When looking for a new TV, I really didn't find the idea of 3D all that appealing. It's just not really a major deal to me. My thought was that it's a nice bonus, but it's not really a deal maker for me. Knowing the price of this TV as compared to other 3D TVs, I didn't particularly have high expectations for the quality of the 3D content. However, when you switch on the 3D mode and enable 2D to 3D up-converting - it is surprisingly great. The TV includes 2 3D glasses and additional glasses are $18/each through Amazon. Very reasonable and the 3D effects look impressive. I've tried the 3D mode on a 3D enabled Blu-Ray, normal TV, and a non-3D xbox360 video game - each of these just looked great in 3D. The 3D effect on this TV is into the tV versus out. You sort of get this impression of looking through a window into some sort of realistic looking scene.Shipping:I was lucky enough to get Free Shipping through Amazon and the shipping included White Glove service at no extra cost. The delivery was very fast. I ordered the TV, had it in less than a week. The delivery company unloaded the TV from the truck, carried it in, unpackaged it, attached the base, and plugged the TV in. They then turned the TV on and checked it to make sure there weren't any problems with the picture. They were friendly and professional and they arrived precisely on time of their scheduled delivery. Now I just gotta decide where I'm going to store this giant box.SMART features:The SMART features are nice to have. I've tested the wireless features of the TV and it works well. However, I prefer to have the TV wired (just for network speed and reliability) and the SMART features are very responsive, non-glitchy. I've mostly used the YouTube player. The downside of the YouTube app on the TV is that it treats it as a mobile app and so YouTube filters out popular content and all Vevo content is unavailable despite the fact that it shows up in searches. This is really a problem with YouTube's own policies and restrictions versus the TV's. The rest of the apps work well and were well designed. The Pandora app is excellent. The TV even comes with an iPhone and Android app which will allow you to control the TV wirelessly from your phone. It's nice to have but I'll stick to the real remote.Bonus feature is that when connected to the network you can stream content from an DNLA or Windows Media client directly to the TV.Customization and Ports/Plugs:The TV gives you so many options to adjust the picture to fit just your taste. For me, I didn't have to do very many adjustments to make the TV look phenomenal. It looked amazing right out of the box and with some slight tweaking it looked nearly perfect. Whatever your taste, the TV gives you plenty of options on how to adjust the picture for your room and content-type. Also, the TV has plenty of HDMI connections and audio out to hook up most equipment. The other benefit is that each input has its own configuration. You can setup different profiles for each HDMI port.
