This TV was the worst investment I ever made
User Rating

Strengths: Decent picture until mass problems
Weaknesses: Burn in after 2 months, and minimal usage. Ghosting also a problem now.
Summary: This was the worst electronics investment i ever made. I've already experienced burn in after only 2-3 months and minimal usage. Both store and Samsung failed to stand behind their product - told me too bad. The customer service at Samsung actually made the problem worse after instructing me to run several different utilities in hopes of helping with the burn in. The utilities made the burn in worse, and then caused ghosting on all the pictures. I told them about this, and they didn't seem to care - said it would not be covered.

I will never buy another Samsung product again.

Just wanted to share.

I share your pain - I did nothing to burn this screen and Samsung does not stand behind their product. I am going to take the tv in a pickup to my Best Buy and beat it with a sledge hammer in the parking lot. Then park it near the front door with a sign warning people of the dangers of plasma screen burn in. Look for me on your local news.

I'm having a similar problem with the same model. I have a blue haze along the left side and also in the middle of the TV. I've had a Best Buy tech out 4 times (replaced 2 parts and made other adjustments) and they still won't replace it. Nice to know that extra $400 that I paid for the service plan is paying off - guess I'll keep having them come out until I get my money's worth or until they replace it...
