New Samsungs - Blu-ray Forum

I was wondering if anyone knew how well the new Samsung PN50A550 stands up against the Panasonic Th-50pz85u and Pioneer models. There haven't been any reviews yet so i was wondering what you guys think.

Don't know about the 550 models but I just got my ln46a650 and that thing is amazing. Blurays are simply unreal and hard to describe when you watch it. Down side is that I've heard remarks that it looks to real and it started to give some of my friends headaches because they are not used to it. But after a few blurays it simply becomes the standard now. Watching movies on my old sony lcd just doesn't look as good.

Yes, the 650 is better than the 550. 50,000 contrast ratio, plus 120Hz AMP, neither of which the 550 has. Of course, the 550 is cheaper, but you get what you pay for.
