Samsung PN42C450 42-Inch 720p Plasma HDTV (Black) This instant

I originally was going to buy the new LG but the samsung just looked better overall and I was hearing good things about their plasmas. Initially adjusted the set and it looked pretty nice, and it was great with higher resolution inputs. Sometimes the picture would seem blurry with cable or the a/v input. I did some more investigating after I began to realize why it looked strange. Whenever contrasting colors would come together say- yellow and blue- I would notice a halo or you could even say a bleeding of color would happen when they came together. Now this problem was even stranger because you could see that it was only affecting the left and right sides of the image not the top and bottom, i.e. if text were being displayed the letter "o" would appear as "(o)" with the outside lines being a little lighter. My DVD player looked great running through the component inputs, but, I checked for the problem here thinking it could just be the lower quality connection of running through a crappy cable box. The DVD was still looking good but I did notice a hint of the same thing happening here, albeit very subtle. I'm getting worried this is a problem that might have been overlooked with this television. My settings were very conservative for an initial set-up and looking at the internal test screen noticed the black side faintly showing blue as it came to the blue border, and so one with each consecutive color. This shouldn't happen. Anyway long story short, chatted and called samsung support and they couldn't do anything for me because the tv isn't technically released yet. The reps aren't trained on it and on the phone I was told to take it back. So I did. If this TV was going to have high resolution hookups only, I might have never noticed, but if you're like me and still have a ps2 and a gamecube this might not be the tv for you. Too bad Panasonic is dropping the ball cause that would have been an easy sale for them. Maybe that LG doesn't look so bad now, too bad the sale on it is over!Get more detail about Samsung PN42C450 42-Inch 720p Plasma HDTV (Black).
