Page 1 of Samsung PS50A457 Plasma TV

I see John Lewis are doing this set with the 5 year warranty for only £699! I am very tempted but wondered if anyone has any views on this TV? I noticed it isn`t 1080p though, would this really matter too much particularly as I`ll be watching Blu Ray films through it.

Considering it`s a 50`` telly, you will notice the difference between 720p and 1080p. If it were, say, a 32`` telly, the difference between 720p and 1080p might not be so noticable.

The Samsung PS50A457 is their Series 4 TVs. I think it will only support HDMI ver1.1 or 1.2 (So no Deep Colour etc)

However, considering the Size of the TV and the price, you`d be hard pressed to find any other 50`` TV in that price region.
Personally- If you`re going to get a TV which is 50``+, it`s gotta be 1080p.

Have a look here for other options:

Cheers, I thought it would probably make a difference. I`ll hang on a little longer instead.
