Samsung HP-S5053 Review
Samsung is trying woo consumers from the LCD market by offering the benefits of a LCD screen on a plasma screen TV. The major complaints of the plasma screen TV is the reflection from the screen and possible burn in such as playing video games. Samsung has a filter bright technology that minimizes glare and maximizes contrast. Judging from the comparison of other plasmas, the Samsung's do produce less of a glare compared to other plasmas. Again, it does not eliminate the glare like the LCD flat screen TVs but it is an improvement to other plasma TVs.
The other complaint of plasma TVs is the possible burn in or image retention left when a stable image is left on a screen for a period of time. When an image is left on the screen on the Samsung HP-S5053, the pixel image is moved around to alleviate the possible burn in. Anyone considering games for their TV who does not want to spend the extra money for an LCD TV like the Samsung LN-S4695D, this Samsung could be the solution.
The Samsung HP-S5053 major specifications are:
- 13-Bit processor that produces 549 billion life-like colors
- Filter Bright anti-glare filter
- Auto Pixel Shift (Burn in resistant)
