Bought this after viewing in BB and thought it was the best picture I had seen. Got it home and it would even power on… Call Samsung to see if I was just missing the obvious but nope just DOA. No apologies, just we need to arrange for a support person to come out. I don’t know about others but when I buy something for $1800 it better work perfectly out of the box. Needless to say it went back… Buyer beware!
Of course BB’s response was equally pathetic. You would think in this economic climate, retailers would be tripping over themselves to ensure consumers spending multiple thousands are getting the best service. I eventually had to drive the TV back myself and the only person to apologize for the inconvenience and bad experience was the warehouse guy who helped be unload. The store manager never said a word and that was after 45 minutes on death hold which ended in me hanging up and driving to the store…

everything is good, except all the i/p is on the left side of the tv, which make me buy all my cable a little bit longer, i wish all the i/p o/p and at the center of the tv.

I wanted to write a positive review after receiving my 860 on Wednesday. I have purchased a lot through Amazon with no problems, and this is no different. I love the free shipping, no tax, and I didn’t know it also included white glove service. They brought it into my home, unboxed it, set it up, and turned it on to make sure it was working properly and they left. I’ve read a lot before pulling the trigger, including AV forums. I too was worried about the “buzz”, I was hoping since I’m sea level, I wouldn’t have a problem. I’m not sure if that is the reason, the TV was made 09/09 in Tijuana Mexico. I don’t even hear the slightest of anything and I’m very happy with the quality and clarity. I hope everyone else gets a winner too.

Like others here I did my research for about a month till I decided to buy this television, the PN50B860. 50″ of glory in my livingroom. I tweaked the settings in Movie mode for watching Blu-Ray movies from my PS3 and the picture is amazing! Way better than Best Buy and Sears setup, and regular DVDs look awesome as well. I change the Video settings depending on whats on, like football, video games, or movie from the remote.
I had a Sony 46″ LCD S-series before this, I know it’s not apples to apples, but it still woops that TVs picture! Playing MGS4 was never so pleasing…
I bought this TV for 1900 flat from an ebay seller on July 1st, and pleased with everything. I like amazon too, but I saved 300 at that time.
Oh yea, no BUZZ here either, seems like only the same person complained about BUZZ on other sites and he had a PN50A850 or was it PN50B850? Anyways, it was a 850 model.
Good Luck on your TV search, mine had a happy ending.

I bought this TV and received it 3 days ago and wall mounted it right away. It looks amazing and sounds great. i read other reviews talking about a Buzzing with the sound from the TV but it does not make any strange noises and the picture looks amazing. It is super thin and looks great on my wall. It’s a great buy for the price….
