"Before buying, I did a lot of research, read reviews, and shopped around. Everything pointed to the PN43E440. The PN43E440 offered the best picture and product reputation for the money. I was a bit worried about the 720p resolution. The store display had a picture with some noticeable stair-stepping on text and showed the plasma TV "screen door effect". However, after reading a number of great reviews, I went ahead and took the leap. Boy am I glad that I did. After spending a few minutes adjusting settings, the picture on this TV is outstanding. I sit around 6 feet from the TV, and HD cable signals create a smooth, bright picture with great contrast. I see no hint of "screen door effect"."

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight, high contrast

Cons: none

"Purchased 3 days ago...so far so good. Easy set-up. Color looks great. For the hearing impaired, when tv is placed on mute, no words appear on screen, maybe it has to be set up for that."

Pros: Built-in speakers, Inexpensive, Realistic color

"I purchased a 55" LED 2 mos. ago, that TV is phenomenal, the truest picture i have ever seen on TV screen.
The 43" plasma I purchased is good and I will keep the TV, but I have been spoiled by the LED.
Overall the price I paid is what swayed me and I would recommend this TV."

Pros: Inexpensive

Cons: Did not meet expectations

Decent TV For the Money

PostedJanuary 15, 2013

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

PostedJanuary 15, 2013

"This tv has a great picture and plenty of features at it's price
point. Picture is as good or better than I've seen on higher priced tvs. Sound quality could be improved some. The most annoying thing I've found with this tv is that after a power failure or if the tv is unplugged, all picture and other settings that were made by the user are lost and must be re-entered. Settings are not stored in tv's memory. Samsung really took a step backward in this area. After all professional calibration setting don't come cheap!"

Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color

Cons: does not store user settings

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
