Samsung PN50A550 Plasma 50" 1080P HDTV

The high-value Samsung PN50A550 proves you don't have to pay top dollar to enjoy the lifelike detail, texture and depth that only full 1920 x 1080-pixel resolution can provide. This is plasma done right, with exceptional picture clarity, deep black levels, and superb color accuracy — skin tones look strikingly natural. The PN50A550 makes all of today's HD sources look their very best, especially 1080p Blu-ray movies.

Enjoy high-definition both now and in the future
With this TV in your system, you can stop worrying about the coming analog signal shutoff in 2009. Like all new HDTVs, the PN50A550 receives both analog and digital over-the-air broadcasts (antenna required). Also, a "QAM" tuner allows cable TV subscribers to watch most unscrambled channels without using a set-top box — including local network HD channels in many areas.
