Topic: Samsung 51F5000/51H5000 - Bang for the Buck Full HD Plasma

[meat_eater]

My unit developed a blue vertical line on the left side, similar sa experience nung iba.

Fortunately, like them, my TV is under warranty and pipickup naman ng samsung.

Hopefully, mabilis nila ma resolve.

[praktikal]

Just got ours yesterday

Thanks po sa mga current owner ng TV na to, and dun sa mga gustong kumuha d po kayu mag sisisi

Anyway, share lang po at medyo naging ma drama pa ung storya ng TV namin. Nakita kasi namin na nag price drop ung TV to 35,997 kaso nakalimutan nila palitan ung FREE na TV 28" padin ung nasa offer

Walang cash ngaun, pero nag deposit ako. Day before na kukunin ko na, they were trying to correct their miss but we didnt give in and after 3 hours they still ended giving me the 28" free at 35,997

Not something to brag about, just a lesson learned for Abensons na ayusin ung mga promotions nila before opening their shop

Ano ba sana ang free kapalit ng 28" o wala nang free?

[disturbed]

^ 23" ung free ng 35,997 hindi 28" sir

[meat_eater]

^ 23" ung free ng 35,997 hindi 28" sir

I think I got a 28 in free nuon, but that was 4 months ago and was at 47k pa noon....

[XrossFire]

^ 23" ung free ng 35,997 hindi 28" sir

Yup 23" ung free pag 35,997 pero pag 28" 42 ata ung retail price. Na saktuhan ko lang na ndi sila nakapag update ng promo nila pero nag mark down sila from 42k to 36k

So naging 36k+28" ung sakin

Hanep 26k lang ang plasma mo assuming mabenta mo sa 10k ang 28". Ayosh!

I am still seeing some image retention (ABS CBN's logo) even the pixel image is enabled. pero madali din namang mawala agad after playing a movie for 15-30 minutes.  pero I didn't expect that this kind of thing will happen immediately especially for a brand new unit.  is this normal ?  any tips on how to lessen this ?  o kailangan talagang i break-in ?

[lite751]

Anyone experiencing where the sound seems to turn off for a second when watching movies via NMT? Pag TV broadcast di naman ganun.

Also is there a way to change the channel to 2, 4, 5, 7, etc.? Currently it is set to 1,2,3,4...; I used auto tuning (aerial antenna) when I first set up the TV. Nakakalito minsan.

Mine doesn't. Babad din kami sa ABS-CBN. Currently my TV is set to "Standard" (cell light = 12 for TV broadcasts) and "Dynamic" when watching movies although I set the cell light to 18 (default is 20). Pixel shift is enabled.

I've read somewhere in this thread to avoid setting cell light to maximum during the first 100hrs of use (break-in period?). I just followed this although some say break-in is not required.

[suchtambay]

Sir, pano nio na-avail ito? pede ba ito if 1 unit lang kukunin? Hehe. Called corporate sales kanina, 35999 for the bundle with noche buena package.

Pa-help naman. Hehe, sayang din ang matitipid.

Thanks!

Sorry for the ignorance. Ano po yung Noche Buena package?

to the current owners of this plasma tv,

how long does delivery of the unit take from the date of purchase? (assuming you availed of delivery service instead of store pickup)

TIA!

[chatstix]

do you think kakasya sa likod (passenger area not the trunk) ng vios ang box/packaging nito?

[raptor]

do you think kakasya sa likod (passenger area not the trunk) ng vios ang box/packaging nito?

parang hindi kasya bossing ... and personally, i would recommend having it delivered kahit kasya sa kotse mo, pag nagka-problema kasi sa transport at nasira, wala ka ng habol sa warranty pag sa kotse mo nangyari

[Philander]

do you think kakasya sa likod (passenger area not the trunk) ng vios ang box/packaging nito?

Nope. Even the bigger cars like Altis and Chevy Cruze di sya kasya.

[chatstix]

thank you sirs raptor and Philander.

Mine was delivered the next day. Abensons Calamba had no stocks and had to order from the warehouse (Cavite). Actually they were suggesting to deliver the TV straight to our house (from the warehouse) para daw makuha ko agad. I just insisted to have the TV delivered at Abensons so I can check/test first para in case may problem pwede agad palitan sa shop (they ordered 3 para may back-up). After inspection & testing saka ko lang po pina-deliver sa bahay.

BTW, I paid P400 for the delivery.

next day delivery pala. pwede!   P400 isn't too bad. I was expecting 1k. I guess depende rin sa location at distance ng source.

thanks.  for the TV I've set it to "Standard" and cell light I think it's only 10.  How about the screen brightness and contrast ?  You've used "Standard"'s default values ?

Hello,
not sure if this has been asked before.
But can this unit size be wall mounted?
is there also a wall mount which you can adjust the distance from the back of the unit against the wall? so that you can have enough space for the ventilation of the heat.

Thanks

Yes and Yes...

An example is the Sabre PLB-WA6 full motion wall mount

meron naman po spacer nilalagay bago i fix yung mount..as long as the screws you use are long enough..the spacer used naman dun sa wall mount na kasama nung unit is enough for venitilation and cables

[mrclark]

Thanks Louie_18 and Disturbed for the reply.

Thanks again in advance

I think the SRP of the Sabre is around 8K.
You could also try looking sa ACE Hardware.
May nakita ako before na similar full motion.
If I'm not mistaken around 6K ata...

you might need to check your NMT ... i have no similar problems, although i'm connecting my NMT to AVR before tv

with regards to channel arrangement, pwede naman re-arrange, just like what i did pero pagtya-tyagaan mo talaga - not sure if it's my cable provider (Cablelink), but even on my Panasonic tv hindi rin naka-arrange ng maayos using auto tuning ... i would suggest obtaining a list of the correct arrangement and printing it on paper para may guide ka, but isa-isa mo talaga babaguhin
