Samsung PS42A410 is a bargain no doubt

Category: Review on Samsung PS42A410 42 inch Plasma TV

Strengths: Good display and modern looking exterior design

Weaknesses: Blacks not perfect, some inherent disadvantages of Plasmas exist

Nothing can entertain more than a 42 inch high quality television (well, maybe a 50 inch one but then that is not what we are discussing in this review!). The Samsung PS42A410 is impressive on performance front and does not leave users with any doubt when it comes to a value-buy proposition. The HD quality images and the overall modern styling of the Plasma television is one of the best around.

As a plasma television, the Samsung PS42A410 comes with some limitations such as background noise when put on higher resolution so stay away from pushing the display higher than its recommended setting. The Samsung television is definitely very reasonably priced and if you are on a budget, then the Samsung PS42A410 is highly recommended. What does not work a lot for me is the slight greyish feel which some black sections tend to show and though it is not frequent, it just does not gel well when you do see it.

Other than the fact that this television is a plasma, there is nothing that I can see wrong with the Samsung 42 inch. Most suited for family living rooms and even large bedrooms, this one seems to be one of the popular models in stores selling Plasma and LCD televisions. Though LCDs tend to steal some of the Plasma’s thunder, the Samsung PS31A410 still manages to give users an impressive television at a bargain.
