      As the other reviewer stated, I purchased my HPS4253 back in June 2007 it showed first signs of screen burn in November 2007. A call to Samsung Tech Support is no help they just tell you it was your fault. The product has a nice picture, and the features...

      by Administrator
    • Pros: Nice picture quality, Decent sound quality, Excellent set of inputs, Very stylish look
    • Cons: Some artifacts and noise on some picture tests, Inputs are located on the back panel (not facing downward), so TV cannot be mounted flush on the wall
    • Comments:
      Samsung has certainly had its share of excellent televisions on the market. They are one of the world's leading TV makers and they will do everything they can to defend that title. So, they've just recently came out with the HP-S5053 50" HDTV plasma TV th...

      by Al Griffin
    • Comments:

      by Asim Zaidi
    • Comments:
      There is nothing more enjoyable than watching the big game or playing your Xbox on a 50? plasma screen. Trust me; it's a worthwhile experience for anyone who has not experienced a high definition TV before. And of course, watching DVD movies on a high def...

      by David Katzmaier
    • Comments:
      Samsung has its fingers in all kinds of TV technology pies, and although it's better known as a purveyor of DLP- and LCD-based HDTVs, the company still sells a tremendous number of plasmas. The HP-S5053 is the company's entry-level 50-inch flat-panel plas...
