It's about value
With a bigger, better picture than most TVs in its class, and a price that looks even better, Samsung's PN51D530 offers an incredible value if you're looking for a plasma TV. The 51" Plasma Plus One design with thin Touch of Color bezel gives the TV a sleek look and one more inch of screen space than you'll get with similarly-sized models. Meanwhile a super-fast response time and 600Hz subfield motion keep your picture crisp and clear no matter how fast the on-screen action is. But it gets better. In addition to two HDMI ports and two component AV inputs, the PN51D530 features two USB ports so you can easily enjoy your personal media collection. And if that still isn't enough, a network connection will allow you to access media from DLNA-compliant devices on your network. Best of all though, check out the price. You'd be hard-pressed to find this kind of value anywhere else.

The TV came carefully packed, well protected and delivered with great care and outstanding service. I set the set up on my own, and it was a breeze. Instructions were clear and configuring the TV was simple and straight forward. It took a couple of tries to use the remote, but after about 10 minutes, I had it down pat. The picture is absolutely amazing! Its like being in a private movie theater! Colors are clear, sharp and real-to-life. And the sound is so great, additional equipment is actually unnecessary, but can be added without any difficulty. Adding sound surround equipment can only make it even better. All the connections are simple to plug in, especially with the HDMI connection. Its such a pleasure to have a TV that was easy to move into position. I had an old 37 tube-type TV that weighed over 100 pounds, and this one is a mere 48. It fits close to the wall, is thin and extremely attractive. While weve had it only about 3 weeks, weve had absolutely no problems whatsoever. Id strongly recommend this model, the Samsung PS51D430 to everyone. Its just a great TV for the price! Im completely wowed by this TV!

This is my 5th Samsung plasma and they continue to make an excellent product. great picture and functionality, although limited on the type and amount of inputs it meets all my requirements. My only complaint is that the base will not swivel.

We purchased this TV to replace an older Samsung DLP TV. The Vanns service and delivery was great, everything went as planned. Once the TV was un-packaged we discovered some glaring discrepancies from the description on the Vanns website and the Samsung website. The TV only has 1 component video input and both websites claim 2, also only has 1 USB input and both websites claim 2, and lastly both websites claim it has a PC input and it does not. Needless to say the picture quality is exceptional! We plugged in our BluRay player and watched a few movies to check the image quality. It was great. The issue is we are an internet only household so the need for the PC input is critical for us. I called Samsung 1st to explain the situation. They confirmed that their website was misleading and to call Vanns to get a return. I just spoke with Megan at Vanns about a return and she was great. Despite this being my 1st experience with Vanns Im not upset. Im completely bummed about the situation, but its not Vanns fault for the Samsung mistake. I would avoid purchasing this TV simply because of the misleading technical data.
