Samsung 50" Widescreen Plasma HDTV Television (HPT5054), REMOTE CONTROL, USER MANUAL, STAND, POWER CORD CLEANING CLOTH, BASE COVER   Original Product Features (Refer to Inspection Comments) Samsung 50" Plasma HDTV (HP-T5054) This 50" Plasma HDTV will deliver a rich and vibrant image in almost any room, no matter the lighting conditions. And with its hidden bottom speakers and glossy black finish, this HDTV will look good doing it.   The basics Display type: Plasma Screen resolution: 720p (1365 x 768) Aspect ratio: 16:9 Contrast ratio: 15,000:1 Tuner type: NTSC, ATSC, QAM   Connection options HDMI inputs: 3, Supports 480i/480p/720p/1080i/1080p. Component inputs: 2, Supports 480i/480p/720p/1080i. PC inputs: 1 See specifications table for more feature and connection options   Dimensions Height: 31.1" (33.4" on optional base) Width: 48.5" Depth: 3.7" (12.4" on optional base) Weight: 97 lbs.   Features FilterBright™ 2: Plasma panels tend to lose contrast in bright rooms; the panel has trouble keeping the light from brightening those parts of the screen that should be dark. But with Samsung's FilterBright 2 technology, room light is kept out of the panel so that dark areas stay dark and high contrast is maintained. 16-bit color: High contrast is only part of the picture—you also need a smooth transition from dark to light in all colors. The higher the number of bits in the color processor, the smoother these transitions look. By including a 16-bit color processor in these panels, Samsung delivers one of the most natural looking pictures from a plasma panel. 15,000:1 contrast ratio: Because each pixel on a plasma panel produces its own light, plasma sets can produce images that have areas that are very bright and others that are very dark. Samsung also takes this farther by analyzing the incoming signal and adjusting the panel for darker scenes or brighter scenes. Anti-burn-in technology: Still images can sometimes "burn-in" to a plasma screen so that they appear overlaid on subsequent shows. This includes the control panels on video games, news tickers, channel logos and watching shows with black bars on the sides. Samsung includes three ways to minimize these effects: Pixel Shift, which slowly moves the image on screen to reduce the chances of this happening in the first place; Test Pattern, which will help to exercise a burned image out; and White Wash, which also helps to wash out a burned-in image using high-intensity white light. NTSC/ATSC/QAM tuner: The ATSC tuner lets you receive free digital broadcasts, including HD signals, through an over the air antenna. QAM allows you to receive unscrambled HD from your cable provider without a set top box. The NTSC tuner will allow you to tune in to analog signals until the 2009 cutoff. Game Mode: Gaming places high demands on the TV. People sit closer to the screen, instant response is required, and all images are computer generated. As a result, a TV should be "tuned" for games. Samsung learned the best practices from a leading console manufacturer and built them into Game Mode. 3 HDMI-CEC inputs: HDMI is the best digital connection for today's high definition sources. CEC adds a control interface so that you can, for instance, insert a disc in your HDMI-CEC enabled DVD player that will turn on the TV and change it to the right input. All you do is close the disc tray! Samsung offers two of these inputs on the back of the set and one on the side to keep you connected well into the future.   Model: HPT5054 Items sold "as-is" have no warranty or return privileges.
