 Power Supply Buzzes like a bugger! May 27, 2007
I bought this from Abes of Maine and it arrived in great condition. Eveything works great. Picture is great. Card reader and Mp3 player through USB port all work well. The big problem is this - The TV makes tons of horible buzzing noises. Thsi is due to a problem with th epower supply. It's a switcher and makes tons of noise. If you use this in a small room, it will drive you insane. It's a known problem and anyone who buys this TV should make sure they have the latest Power supply installed in the unit. I am in process right now to have mine replaced under warranty. Samsung knows this is a problem and they should fix it without hassle. Other than that, it's a great TV for the money. I paid 1750.00 for it in April. Prices continue to drop and quality gets better each day. Wait until you need the tv to buy it. the longer you wait, the more you get for your money.

This is a very nice TV. I am glad I went ahead and purchased the one with the card readers on the side. Its nice to look at your pictures on the big screen
pretty good but not great April 18, 2007
(My review is 3 1/2 stars) Bought this set about 3 weeks ago thru vanns. was very hesitant about such a big online purchase, but vann's delivered 100%. great service. got the unit in about a week shipped yellow freight- driver even helped bring it in and unpack to inspect it despite only curbside delivery.
After 3 weeks here it is: nice looking set. pretty good remote. despite the fact that it has 6 speakers the sound is only good and nothing special- although it will get really loud if you crank it up. the high def channels and dvd's look excellent, but i have to say that the standard def channel quality is generally disappointing. I guess the set just amplifies the crummy std def signal making it worse(using fios digital tv). The other negative is the brightness. sometimes the picture seems too dark no matter what you do. I Read all the reviews and advice columns that say to turn off all the DNIE and image enhancements - but no way, they definitely work. Oh yeah, almost forgot the buzzing. the set DOES buzz a little. it ain't horrible, but it's there, sometimes louder than others. if you turn up the volume to about 12 or so it's really not noticable, but still there. It's liveable.
After writing this i'm unsure if I'd do it again, plunking down two grand for a set. don't get me wrong it's a pretty good set, but was expecting a little more. I dont know?
Samsung HPS5073 50" Plasma HDTV April 8, 2007

As with other customers, I was a little hesitant to purchase a big screen TV through the internet. I did a lot of research and read countless reviews. I chose the HPS5073 over the HPS5053 due to some minor upgrades. The 5053 is the older model and I wanted to reduce the chance of the loud humming problems associated with the older models. The 5073 also offers a few minor options the 5053 doesn't have so make sure you compare the two very closely. The 5073 has the cable card slot, USB port, DVI port, 2 RF connections, headphone jack and more built in speakers. I needed the extra connections for my surround sound, DVD recorder and VCR. All were easy to connect and switching from one to the other is very easy through the remote. The only complaint I have is the 4.3 screen side bars are gray instead of black and hopefully Samsung techs will change that in the future. This is such a trivial issue that it wouldn't have changed my decision but felt a review should reflect the good and the bad. The picture is spectacular, impressive and the TV looks fantastic in my family room. It is very modern looking and has all of the options you will ever need. Vanns delivery was actually too fast and I had to reschedule to a later date. They did so with just a phone call and the delivery driver called me 30 minutes in advance to make sure I was home and ready to accept delivery. I had a friend help me hook up the TV and in 15 minutes we were all done. NO loud humming or fan noise and not a lot of heat emission like I read in other reviews. This TV is a great buy and I couldn't be happier. Vanns is one of the few online electronics stores that have a return policy without a lot of fine print. Believe me I did my research and Vanns is by far one of the better "brick and mortor" retailers. They have a 15 day return policy and most retailers require you to seek repairs through the manufacture. I saved a bundle buying through Amazon and will buy from them again.
Delivery as per schedule March 27, 2007
Just wanted to let everyone that the order worked as expected. Got the TV in the box today (1 day before expected delivery). I was apprehensive about ordering through the internet, but so far things are good. I am hoping that this will continue, and wont have to face any problems. Picture quality is good, TV looks sleek and fabulous. Will provide more details in the next couple of months.
