Undecided - Samsung PS51E550 or Samsung 46ES5600
« on: Nov 23, 2012 at 01:08 PM »
Hello guys, I'm need of a new set of TV and I'm only considering these 2 options:

1.  Samsung PS51E550 - 51" Plasma Smart TV 3D
2.  Samsung 46ES5600 - 46" LED Smart TV Slim

Will mostly be used on HD Movies via WD TV Live, PC Gaming via HDMI (some games 3d capable via NVIDIA graphics card but won't be used as primary monitor as I am using 23” Samsung LT23B350 LED TV Full HD) PS3 gaming, cable TV, NBA Premium TV Cable Box.

At the moment I'm more inclined on getting the 46ES5600 because of it's slim design which is a plus and I will be wall mounting it using the Samsung Wall Mount

What's holding me back on pulling the trigger is that the PS51E550 is "51" that itself is a plus and that they are almost of the same price, at to that the 3D capability of the PS51E550.

Still torn between these 2 sets.

Which would you guys get between the 2?

e550 plasma is much superior than the es5600 anybody here could say the same thing...kaso lang ang plasma you really have to take care of it, you know those annoying static images from the tv stations could cause image retention in time. basically having a plasma screen means you really care about the exact tone of the movie( contrast, deep blacks,color accuracy, saturation, motion) you know stuff like that, as what the film projectors or movie theaters present it. Only plasma screen could somehow mimic that characteristics in our home, some led screens(high-end ex. series 7 to 8 ) could do that but somehow they are expensive for some other folks.

For Me I would choose 8)
1.  Samsung PS51E550 - 51" Plasma Smart TV 3D
Pros:
-solid black
-color is more accurate & natural
-3D active shutter + Smart TV
-51" bigger than 46"
-not that slim but can be wall mounted
-full HD
-cheaper than led

I even advised my sister-in-law to buy this instead of LED TV. And now she's very happy :D with it. Also read Sir Barrister's post regarding this TV. Hope it helps. Happy hunting! ;)

I agree with sir skooter's view.
 
Actually, your problem boils down to the "Plasma vs LCD/LED" question.  Both technologies are good, but one can be much better than the other, depending on the application you're going to use it for.  When you decide which is right for you, you will know which Sammy model to choose.
 
So first, you have to decide on this question --- which tech is right for your needs: Plasma or LED?

In my opinion sir, if I had to choose. The list goes since same price
A. Plasma
bigger screen Always bigger better.
3D yes but do you use it often?

B. LED
relatively smaller screen
3D not.
To Boldly go where no Bluray has gone before.
