  I ordered my Samsung PN63B550 a week ago and it arrived 5 days later. Amazon ordering was easy and tracking my order online was very accurate on their delivery time. My tv was delivered two days before the actual delivery date from Amazon. It was ship by Pilot delivery service and they only sent one person to carry my tv from the delivery truck to inside my home. I had to help assist the delivery guy to take it out of it’s packing material and place it on top of the stand. That was only thing i was dissappointed with I would suggest you call Amazon first before ordering and ask for a white glove deliver service instead. This was my first Samsung plasma Tv and I am thorougly satisfied with my order picture is wonderfull and movies on HD never looked so good on this 63″ mammoth. If your looking for the best Tv for watching sports and movies look no further. I also saved $700 dollars when ordering through Amazon compared to Best Buy and Frys Electronics. Hands down the best Plasma Samsung has ever made. To many features to list like mega dynamic contrast and 600hz motion picture and 24fps for more relistic movie experience and uses 50% less energery compared to last year models.

  I received this TV with great expectations, but within 10 minutes of viewing, I decided to go through the pain of returning this large item.br /br /I have 2 other Samsung TV’s, and I was particularly impressed with their A650 series LCD TV (LN46A650). I expected same type of vividness out of this B550, but unfortunately, this one doesn’t even come close.br /br /The brightness level is all off, and the color bleeds all over the screen. After some tweaking, I concluded that the trouble is something more fundamental. Basically we are dealing with something that cannot be adjusted via user interface. Flesh color looks dead on the screen, and HD signal doesn’t help either.br /br /Maybe they cut the cost too much this year. Maybe 550 series was never meant to complete with A650 series. I’m willing to give one more try with A650 plasma series from 2008, as B550 is the only item for 2009 so far.br /br /I just hope I don’t have to go through too much trouble returning this TV. I also hope that Samsung gets their act together and put out better product in the large category.

  I have had my 63B550 for about two weeks now. The picture is amazing. The colors are great, and it’s a bright set. No signs of IR at all. I’d recommend it.

  That’s what my wife said after a couple of weeks of owning this TV. A lot of forums like AVS talk about the “wife acceptance factor” or WAF. This TV has the highest WAF of any electronic item I have ever owned. I really like the TV a lot too. It just wows anyone who sees it.br /br /I use it in a home theater set up with a separate sound system so I can’t comment much on the sound. Other features such as the network connectivity are OK, but I don’t use it much other than to see that it works while checking out the features and settings. br /br /Movies are a great experience with this TV. Sports and regular TV are nothing short of spectacular when available in high quality high definition. The standard definition programming is as good as I have seen on any other TV.br /br /I was very satisfied with Amazon’s price and free white glove delivery. It arrived a few days before they originally promised. The guys delivering this monster set it up on my waiting stand and offered to remove the box. I did not test it until later due to a 2 hour ride in the truck when the temperature was about 8 degrees. When I did everything was perfect.br /br /We have had this TV for about 3 months now with no issues. Just big smiles.

  Best price we could find on the Samsumg 63-Inch 1080p Plasma we wanted. Amazon informed us of the tracking of the shipment from the minute we ordered it. Best of all was the “white glove” delivery service and set up. An overall excellent purchasing experience. Thanks, Amazon–you did it again!

  First one we received had a strange defect - It’d randomly start scanning for channels. Samsung support couldn’t solve it on the phone, so a service call was arranged. We’d just received the TV, so I emailed amazon that night and was contacted by morning. No questions asked, they were sending a new TV. Talk about prompt service.br /br /Ceva had delivered the first one and a few days later they were back with its replacement. Painless.br /br /After just over a month of ownership, we’re really smitten with this TV. Beautiful picture quaility, easy to navigate controls. If I were doing this all over again, I’d buy the same TV.br /br /Thanks for the exemplary service, amazon.

  I received my Samsung 63 inch Plasma from Amazon.com last week. The delivery was on time. They placed the TV in my basement (where it was supposed to be connected)br /The picture quality is great! It did not look as big on the wall as I had originally thought.br /I am very satisfied with the purchase.

  I helped my dad set up this set last weekend. I had urged him to buy a Pioneer Kuro 60″ because I have a Pioneer 60″ and he loves the picture it has when he comes to visit. I was concerned when he decided to get the Samsung pn63a650, because of image retention issues I’d read about previous models of Samsung plasmas. I am very happy to report that none of the previous problems exist on this set. The black levels are very nice on this tv. The picture quality is excellent. The cable management and swivel base are well designed. I love everything about it. I was worried about Pioneer quitting the plasma business, but now that I have seen this set I’m not worried about that anymore. I played with it for 2 days during our visit, and I was impressed with the adjustment controls it has available. After much tweaking it has a picture every bit as nice as my Pioneer. The bad thing is, those 3 extra inches on the pn63a650 have made my Pio 60″ look small… I’m ready to go visit mom and dad again. lol.
