Samsung HP-S4253 42-Inch Plasma HDTV Review!
I don’t think you can get a better 40-42in flat panel television for the price range of the samsung. I spent about 3 months researching and comparing plasmas and lcd tv’s before I bought Samsung HP-S4253 42-Inch Plasma HDTV.
So at that point I focused on just the plasmas. The blacks are much better, the picture is sharper, and the fast actions programing is much, much better with a plasma. To make a long story short I chose the samsung because of price less than a pioneer. Burn in protection that the panasionic doesn’t have, and just a better look of the TV case compared to the LG.
And the samsung has PIP. Since I had the TV for the past week I can not complain about the picutre, it is totally fantastic on HD, and very good on the STD chanels. The sound is better than average for 2 speekers. the easy of use is also great. My father who is an electronic moron could set this up and use the tv. The tuners also bring in channels over antenna that I never new were available.
The antenna HD channels are excellent, the STD channels are so, so. Stick to cable or satellite for STD channels. My only dislike it the PIP is not actually PIP. It is more like a dual monitor. You have to have to different sources connected for the PIP to work.
But if you want a 42in plasma for a heck of a good price with a awesome picture, that is simple to use, pick the Samsung HP-S4253 42-Inch Plasma HDTV you will not be disappointed.
