if u leave the picture to much time u can get some burn in with the plasma. IT will go away in some time but that could happen with videogames. IF you just watch movies like me…then PLASMA is the king.
I have the 550…is just frigging awesome…but try to play movies with the fit in screen system so you dont have burn in the screen it does have the fix protecction but just be carefull also try to fit the screen without lines up and down or to the sides with old videos. After that PLASMA beats LCDs of today. Maybe LED LCDS of over 3K are a little better other than that any plasma is great specially on movies. If u just game go lcd just cos of the burnin problem.
Just bought it!
So far very satisfied.

I’m gonna be really, really pissed if it does.

Put SAMSUNG TV CLICKING into a google search and read why THOUSANDS of samsung customers are screwed and pissed off.
Don’t B the next SHAMSUNG SUCKER !!
Haha yeah and maybe piss on a little to
lcd is trash
Plasmas are cheaper, better in contrast and the quality of colors are also better as LCDs, and the new generation of plasma has lower wattage as the LCD TVs, yes its right.
look, a new plasma has 200-250 Watts … a LCD also
but a LCD has the whole time this wattage!
but a plasma has only the wattage when the screen is bright! … when the screen getting darker… the wattage are lower!!
you have never a constant maximum wattage!!
movies.. Definitely plasma.. Gaming?.. everybody says LCDS are better for gaming..
in the store the Plasme looks way better than the LCD but alot of people tells me the LCD is better…. which one should i get ? for gaming and movies.
Is an LCD with 1080P or a plasma with 720P better?
I watch a lot of sports and play video games and watch movies.
Im actually looking to buy a b430 thats why i wanted to see some review about this tvs how much did you pay for yours???
Hey Dude,
I’m looking into this very screen… how does it look while watching blu-rays ?
Just make sure you pour water on it for the first few weeks to break it in.
I just bought one of these in the 50″.
Ive never owned a plasma. Are there any special power supplies or anything that I need?
i have just purchased the b430 as well it dosent have the vga connection BUT i have a dvi to hdmi connection from my pc. overall its a fantastic tv!!
WOW, nice tv
I have the PN42B430 which is the same except for fewer inputs. This is a great set AND a bargain. For those into calibration, the starting point of Movie Mode warm2 although proper for Blu-Ray viewing, DOES NOT TRANSLATE into correct, or enjoyable, Hi-Def TV viewing. For that mode, Standard cool, is your best starting point. I have spent months on this, but once you have it set it is a stunning picture.
I am getting it thanks for the review
Looks like a great television!
