Samsung PN58B550


As much as we love plasmas' image quality here at CNET, there's no denying that they're power hogs . However, at CES 2009 we've seen several plasma manufacturers showing off new energy-efficient panels. Like Panasonic's NeoPDP plasmas, the Samsung PNB550 series of plasmas claim to consume nearly 50 percent less energy compared to past models. Here are the full details.Minimize


Samsung PN58B560


Add a SAMSUNG plasma HDTV to your entertainment arena---one that looks as good as it performs, with breathtaking design, high quality and affordability. This plasma adds a subtle clear-to-charcoal gray accent to its bezel thanks to Touch of Color™ and you''ll get deeper blacks and a more precise color range with the dynamic contrast ratio. The new E-Panel technology features our innovative FilterBright™ technology which reduces glare in bright rooms and our crystal full HD engine brings picture quality to new levels of excellence.Minimize
