Added on July 27, 2011, 12:29 ami'v seen that model too at a samsung shop.. from my eyes the black/darkness color screen is very nice.. the main difference is the UA55D6400 hv the feature to convert 2D to 3D.. but the screen is a bit reflective similar like plasma where you can see your self on screen when it is off or too much brightness in the area..

The question about waiting, that you must ask yourself.. these electronic stuff blossom with enhances and features every few month at least.. its a never ending journey i guess..


other than that i cant comment since i do not own one or hv experience using it...

Well.. im not using the PS51D451, but im using the 3 model, PS51D491.. if im not mistaken, it uses the same panel.
okie.. its a plasma TV.. so the pq is very nice...
other thing i like, this TV can be set really bright... compared to 2010 model (i didnt compared with other manufacturer 2011 model like pana n LG.. but from reviews, 2011 samsung is the brightest plasma.. they do this because they want to compensate the lost of brightness during 3d viewing) .. (its not as bright as 2011 LED TV, but near in par)
things i dont like.. its reflect especially during daytime viewing.. but no issues to me cause i install an anti reflection screen..

try hunt for a good price for this model.. lower rm2700.. just to let u know.. pana 50u30k lowyat seller advertise as low as rm2899 (if not mistaken, n this is full HD)

Read my impression of my TV here http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1825421

Added on August 2, 2011, 11:40 amif u looking for 3dtv n insist to go for LED.. better if u go for latest sharp LE830... other led TV may not be worth it cause of significance noticeable crosstalk/ghosting while watching 3d content, if me not mistaken the biggest size is 52" and its expensive

seem u hav a good budget... n if u can lower the screen size.. check out the PS51D6900... for me.. im very impress with this TV (for less than rm6k price range)

the pana ST30.. can be kinda expensive.. u'll be surprise with the rrp...

oh yeah, u using 3d for gaming or movies...
just to let u know.. i extremely rarely use my 3dtv for movies.. cause it come with only 2 glasses.. for me, if wanna watch movie.. must hav at least 3 glasses..

azsace,

you mean SAMSUNG PS51D451 can get at rm2700 new?

In my hometown is at RM RM3K+++

Well.. if u look at normal shop. I dont think you can get that price rm2700 for PS51D450... but try to look for lowyat seller
same thing as pana 50U30K... lowyat seller can sell as cheap as RM2899... dont think can get this price at normal shop

is PS51D451 and PS43D451 full HD 1080P?

Nope its not... PS51D451 (resolution 1366 X 768) and PS43D451 (1024 X 768) is only HD ready but can accept 1080p signal. But for 51" since full HD n HD ready hard to differention unless u sit really close (like 1.5m to the screen). but wont recommend the PS43D451 cause its not actually 16:9 ratio native...

if u looking for 42 plasma, better get 42U30K, again in lowyat seller they sell below rm2k.. shop price im not sure

anyway, personal opinion, if wanna go for 42, better get LED TV

do you experience any leftover marks after playing games on the 51"?

so far.. i havent experience any major image retention issues...
once in a while, there is noticeable image retention.. but this is rare for me, i think perhaps this happen only once (after 3+ more of usage) after i just finish playing a movie with 4:3 aspect (to let u know, i always play movie with its native resolution) n when i watch another 16:9 content I notice a bit of side border but it just went away after watching the 16:9 content approximately 5min
for gaming, so far unnoticeable image retention is there.. i say unnoticeable because i hav to actually go close to the TV and try to find it... to me this is not an issues...
oh yeah, to let u know.. before i use the TV i spend one week to break in the display...

Need bout 100hrs to break in...

my concern on plasma is the image retention/burn ins.... this is the weakness of plasma if used with still image, logo, etc..

but current plasma hv reduce that problems... meaning its unnoticeable and the image wears out over time and after changing to moving picture... but still that weakness is still there i guess..

im still deciding on which would be best for me... but for personal preference i like the Plasma Better than LCDs/LED...

But mostly my use is for gaming.... that made me having second thought

Hmm. for gaming people usually recommend led/lcd tv...

previously, i always recommend people to buy LED/LCD tv if the main purpose for gaming.. but not sure whether this is applicable anymore especially if u r using consoles (pc if mainly for gaming not work)

n to let u know... i do use my plasma for pc gaming... n again so far nor problem, mostly the games i played doesnt have many still image within the game itself (like HUD)

final advise... buy what you are comfortable with...

but if u get a plasma, do break-in the display...

Hi guys need to suggestions from all the daikor here

I wanna get a full hd LCD TV for my PS3

budget around 1.8-2.3k

32 or 40" also can~

prefer sony or samsung, also tell me which HDMI cable i should get along with the TV ~ THANK U!!!

I am using Plasma for gaming and TV. So far no problem, as long as you are disciplined enough to 'snow wash it' after use everyday. With that, you can enjoy

using it. I certainly do, as it is one of the more natural looking images and 'movements'/refresh rate among the tvs out there, at least for me. By the

way, I am using Pana plasma.

'snow wash it' ??? please define?

Snow wash means you switch the channel to the 'channel searching mode'. You know if the old tv, when it is searching for channels, the screen

would be showing many tiny black and white dots. Just leave it for at least half an hour and it will be fine.

Whats the cheapest that could support 1080p? Can my 24" 1920x1080 led monitor support 1080p?

Does anyone using panasonic plasma PU5030UK?
I'm planning to get it for ps3 and astro HD,since it's cheap invest.
Does it worth to buy?

does anyone ever experience display flickering or went black while playing ps3? is it the tv or the hdmi cable/port? or even worst symptom of YLOD ps3?

Hmmm...searching for a good TV for gaming is harder than i thought. I won't ask for much but i'm looking for a display with the lowest input lag we could possibly get for current model LCD TV in general. Other priority would be:

-Not a monitor. Don't feel like buying a separate speaker.
-Must be between 22 inch to 32 inch range
-At least 2 HDMI ports
-Budget RM1000 or under.

I'm still doing some research on AVS forum. It's a bit mind blowing but i'll leave my wish specification here just in case anyone had any experience with the same specs as i mentioned above on current model LCD TV.
