The Right Choice
Samsung, an industry leader in plasma flat panel displays, offers the latest technology in a sleek and stylish package. Their 5th generation plasma panel combined with proprietary electronic chassis design, incorporating the latest DNIe picture enhancement circuitry, results in outstanding brightness, contrast and overall picture clarity. The HPS4273 is a true plug-and-play plasma TV with an integrated NTSC/ATSC tuner and CableCARD slot, allowing for viewing of HD programs. Everything you'll need in a digital flat panel TV is here. Watch TV in any room of the house without worrying about softened images or glare on the screen from bright lights. FilterBright Plus technology eliminates those issues. Integrated speakers give you rich virtual surround. Performance and convenience in a package that's less than 4 inches deep makes the HPS4273 the clear choice.
Five Generations Of Plasma
Samsung has been an industry leader in the plasma field, working to perfect their plasma screen with each generation of new technology. They are currently on their fifth cycle. Setting the benchmark for contrast and brightness, the newest plasma panel offered by Samsung and available in the HPS4273 has been engineered to enhance the on-screen brilliance for maximum effect. Its 10,000:1 contrast ratio and 1,300 cd/m2 brightness are among the highest in the industry. Add to that the new 13-bit processing capability of DNIe, which means the HPS4273 can produce over 549 billion colors. Compare that to many of the 10-bit processors on the market today that just produce one billion colors. From the faint sunlight of dawn to the extreme spotlights of a fashion show, Samsung Plasma TVs provide vivid, life-like images that rival reality. DNIe is made up of a Motion Optimizer, a Contrast Enhancer, a Color Optimizer, and a Detail Enhancer.
Don't Just Think Outside The Box—Throw The Box Out
Welcome to the 21st century, where cars are powered by fryer grease, vegetables are engineered genetically, and, thanks to GPS, men no longer have to have the age-old inner debate about whether or not to ask for directions. What's the most useful invention though? A cable-ready TV that doesn't depend on a cable box: Samsung's HPS4273 comes cable-ready with a built-in Digital Cable Ready (DCR) QAM tuner and the technologically advanced CableCARD slot. This means you no longer need that ugly cable box to receive digital cable. All you need is a small, preprogrammed card that slips neatly into the CableCARD slot.
Picture Perfect
When it comes to displaying pictures how you want to see them, Samsung TVs get the job done. Built-in analog tuners allow you to connect with an RF signal cable directly to the set and watch "regular" TV right out of the box, or use the integrated ATSC tuner to pick up high definition programs broadcast over the air. Split screen and PIP (Picture-in-Picture) with small, large, and split modes give you various options for watching multiple programming on the same screen at the same time. The HPS4273's wide screen aspect ratio means your screen is filled with DVD and HDTV images which are increasingly available and presented in wide screen formats. On-board aspect ratio controls allow for handling analog 4:3 sources as well, in standard, wide screen, zoom 1 and zoom 2 modes.
You'll Like The Sound Of This
With the HPS4273, true theater quality sound is part of the experience. SRS TruSurround XT delivers an amazing simulated effect using TruBass virtual woofer effect, Dialog Clarity, and WOW stereo enhancement. The set's built-in 2-way speaker system is powered by the built-in 15-watt per channel audio amplifier and sounds terrific.
It's All About Connections
The HPS4273 includes HDMI connections which allow for the transmission of both video and audio digital signals through a single cable for higher quality and fewer wires. You can connect your DVD and DTV sources with two smart component video (Y/Pb/Pr) inputs that accept 480i/480p/720p/1080i signals. You also get S-Video and composite video inputs, along with optical and coaxial digital audio outputs for transferring high-quality sound. What's more, the HPS4273 can also function as a PC monitor thanks to PC inputs.
