The Pros:Excellent bright-room image for a plasma. Superb streaming and widget content via well-integrated Apps platform. Samsung's signature transparent stalk and frame edge heighten the visual appeal.
The Cons:1080p/24 mode causes loss in black level performance. Substandard remote. 3D glasses are not included.

It has a very high dynamic contrast ratio and a 600Hz subfield motion refresh rate. It also has Samsung's "AllShare" feature that allows wireless connections to computers and mobile devices, and therefore video and other media streaming capacities. Since it can connect to the Internet (either wirelessly with an adapter, or via an ethernet cable), it also has several built-in Samsung applications such as social networking and video rental programs. This model does not include 3D glasses, though Samsung offers some packages that include these and a Blu-Ray player.
