Samsung FP-T5084 Popular Reviews:
cnet reviewed the Samsung FP-T5084 and gave out”The good: Reproduces a deep level of black; offers clean image with little noise or false contouring; provides plenty of picture controls, including user-adjustable grayscale; has a sleek, extra-wide look. The bad: Somewhat nonlinear grayscale; some false contouring; ho-hum standard-def processing; less-effective glare-reducing screen. The bottom line: With accurate color and deep black levels, the Samsung FP-T5084 50-inch plasma’s picture stands up well against some tough competition.”
pcworld reviewed the Samsung FP-T5084 and gave out”It’s not the most cutting-edge or full-featured HDTV set, but the Samsung FP-T5084 scored high overall because it is inexpensive, well designed, and a solid performer.”

bought this TV with the Peerless wall mount package deal- both were great purchases. The television is mounted on a wall above a fireplace, and installation and hook-up was very easy. The TV comes on a stand, which can be easily disconnected for wall mounting.
Had this set for a couple of weeks before getting the HD digital cable box- don’t expect this set to perform up to its standards by inputting a pour signal. The HD channels look great, and DVD’s are even better (Denon DVD player, with upconvert feature to 1080i- getting 1080p soon). Picture settings can be found all over the internet, but they obviously depend on your room, viewing angle and distance, etc. The ‘dynamic’ setting works great for sports, but I use ’standard’ for most other programs.
The TV itself looks really good with the sleek black outline. The speakers are on the side of the unit, and for my small townhome living room, they work fine. I use a Denon home theater system for most movie viewings, but the standard set sound is fine for most programs. I researched LCD’s vs. Plasmas for months before finally deciding on this unit, and at less than $2000, I don’t think there’s a better set on the market.

I bought this SAmsung plasma TV as it was one of the recommended HDTVs[...]. And I am defintely not disappointed. The colors looks unbelievably clear and will grab your attention when watching DVDs. The ability to hang the wall just makes this TV look even better. It has every connection you could want, with 3 HDMI including one on the side for easy access.
I have not had any problem with glare, and my living room is brightly lit. It does make a curious beeping noise when powering on or off, but nothing excessive. Standard progressive DVDs look sharp and colorful. My PS3 also bring out the best in the TV with BluRay movies. One of the unique features of this Samsung model is the speakers being moved to the side. It make th TV less tall, but wider. The speakers work in giving a clear, loud, big sound. It’s not surround by any means, but having the speakers on the side of the TV (invisible to the eye) allow for plenty of listening space for everyone in your living room.
The price continues to come down on this TV, so be patient.
