Compared to most TV manufacturers that have walked away from the plasma
TV segment in favor of LED/LCD technology, Samsung certainly hasn’t
given up on the category, and recently laid claim to top spot in larger
size plasma TV sales (they only have two competitors in the plasma
segment—LG and Panasonic). Their top line 8000-series plasma models,
including the 59” size under review here, are as feature-packed as they
come, and provide higher value on a cost per screen inch basis than
their comparable top tier LED/LCD models (for comparison, note that
Samsung’s top line 8000-series LED set maxes out at 55” and will set you
back $600 more than you’d spend on the 59” plasma reviewed here)
