Very dark blacks. Accurate colors that pop. Strong feature set. Good 3D depth.
Pricey. Not energy-efficient. Funky remote

Great brightness levels (for a plasma), Excellent contrast, detail, colour accuracy, Samsung's class-leading Smart TV tech
Relatively high power consumption, Panasonic's plasmas are cheaper

Stunning black levels, Great shadow detail, Brightest plasma yet, Spectacular color, Attractive design

Buying Guide Active vs passive 3D The Samsung PS64F8500's pictures are a revelation in both 2D and 3D mode, especially when it comes to their brightness and resistance to ambient light. Samsung's smart TV engine is miles ahead of the pack in terms of its ...
