Looks like Samsung will be bringing in the L5 plasma soon, as it is already registered with the Energy Commission.

2792  TELEVISIONS  PLASMA TV/PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL  SAMSUNG  PS50B550T2R  91633/09
2793  TELEVISIONS  PLASMA TV/PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL  SAMSUNG  PS42B450B1  91567/09
2794  TELEVISIONS  PLASMA TV/PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL  SAMSUNG  PS42B430P2  93674/09
2795  TELEVISIONS  PLASMA TV/PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL  SAMSUNG  PS50B450B1  91571/09

Strange the PS50B650S1R is not registered...

Update on my set:

1) IR is not as bad as it seems. Only visible if i search for it. Watched a movie for 2 hours with the black bar. Yes, IR will appear when i switch back to astro but disappears about 1/2 hour later. Does not concern me when I do normal viewing for normal shows on Astro. If i want to quickly remove the IR, samsung has a "window washer" setting that can be run. If i set that on, even the most stubborn IR stains will go away within 5minutes or so.

2) No S-Video sad.gif Manage to tweak the colors to be more accurate. The upscaling for SD content for this Samsung is better than Sony's BE2 engine (as comparison).

3) Buzzing sound getting less (or I got used to it).

4) Manage to use my Nokia N82 phone with the DLNA feature. Now i can stream my home video / photos recorded on my phone directly to the TV. This is actually quite cool but useless feature.

5) Reflection on this set is really under control. In fact, i went to compare the LED LCD Samsung vs this set and the LEDs are even more reflective! Hate looking at my half naked body when i watch movie for dark scenes.

I saw this in HV Pavilion 3 weeks ago...6,999
performance of 550 and 650 is a big gap. Like series 5 lcd vs series 6 lcd.

IR for hr is not that good news. If plasma are to survive in the TV wars, this is not gonna help. Its simply not acceptable. I plasma screen that can get IR so easily will soon have permanent Burn In.

TV off
On the remote control, [info], [menu], [mute], [power]...
Then the rest is on you, as different model has different GUI.

I got mine fr Best Denki.
If not for the warranty, I would have gotten it from Chinaman shop which is much cheaper.


Added on August 18, 2009, 8:40 pmThanks. I was able to check panel hours finally.
It's hiding inside the menu... It's only 58 hours.

I do not want to encourage people to go into the service menu. If u do change something by accident and it causes problems it is something that shd be avoided.
