2011 Samsung Plasma 3D PS51D550

It is surprising that they did not have the 3D glasses and that we have to buy it separately....as some where in the thread, I read that Samsung provides 3D glasses along with the TV for free ! ! !....

Can someone (who has got a reliable contact) confirm this with Samsung ?

Thanks
Its confirmed through Samsung Head office that 1 3D glass will be shipped as soon as its available (due to shortage of glasses).
 
^^^so if for example I purchased the tv now shall i get the glasses now itself or should i wait for another 15 days for it to be delivered. what is the mode of delivering the glasses?
pls also confirm about the pricing of 3d glasses so i can purchase another pair of glasses
 
dear prankey,...which no. did u ring up & from whom did u confirm of getting a pair of free 3d glasses...my local samsung sales manager is acting ignorance or rather assertively telling me of No 3d glasses/specs free with ps 51d550,when i checked with him last!... so'm asking u,..from whom did u get the confirmation of free 3d glasses with the d550...any phone.no or links?...so that i can clarify the matter straight from the horses mouth(H.O) & therfore force my local samsung ppl to update their information!

We will know about it when the fresh stocks arrive... I believe Samsung will ship the glasses to your address when they are available.

My same contact confirmed of 1 3D glasses with the TV... He said, he can't get 2 pairs, but 1 pair will come with the TV or about 2 weeks after the purchase due to non availability...

I can say its an authentic info as I got such conflicting answers by various Samsung dealers last year when they were unable to give the 3D BR + 2 extra 3D Glasses with 46C750 and instead were offering only 1 regular BR (C5500)... I got the best price (90k) for the TV with MRP of 1.3L and DP 1.2L + the 3D offer while had an MRP of around 55k when the regular BR others were offering was just about 10K!

LG 50PZ550 (plasma 3D) is not Passive 3D......it is comparable to Samsung 51D550.......

Yes Sorry for my mistake LG50PZ550 Uses SG technology :sad:(Shutter Glass Technology), I learned it now because of you :D Thank you.

If you have comparative reviews then share your knowledge . :clapping:
 
sorry mann...i 'm too old to read mann & i know nothing about samsung mann...so my advice dont buy a samsung mann! 'b happy mannn !
 
now,since officially samsung has stopped selling the2010 model "c"series tv/plasma,& also deleted them from their indian website.....when can we expect the better launches like 51 PSD6500(with a better antiglare screen) to be launched in india?...any news from any reliable source yet?
 
i went through the catalog of samsung 51d550 comparisons. it says its hdmi 1.3a not 1.4,, and doesn't support audio return channel.. can any user confirm it.. also hd ready model (series 4) supports digital broadcast. not full hd( SERIES 5)
 
no i checked it it is only samsung hub that has skype. this 5 series does not have it... it is lower version..

oh god no hdmi 1.4 .. i called samsung support 30308282 / 1-800-11-0011..
regarding 3d.. please read wiki forum u need 1.4 hdmi for 1080p 3d..
for 720p 3d 1.3 is sufficient.. play station has 1.3 only..yet can play 3d by reducing resolution to 720p....

samsung has hdmi 1.3 with auto3d selection for hdmi 1.4 input...

it means u receive and display 2d pictures in 1080p
and
3d will be received 1080p from source ( samsung has auto 3d for 1.4 input). Because of auto 3d feature the 3d BLURAY player(source) will recognize tv as full hd for 3d i.e. like 1.4 version however once signal touches samsung board, IT will be processed as 720p ( of course upscaled AGAIN by samsung to 1080p and displaced as 1080p finally)

SO 4 SERIES IS BETTER FOR 3D THAN 5 SERIES BECAUSE PS51 4 SERIES HAS TRUE HDMI 1.4. SO 3D WILL BE RECEIVED AT 1080P BUT DISPLAYED AS 720P, UNLIKE
5 SERIES WHERE 1080P=> CONVERTED AT HDMI END AS 720P, PROCESSED AGAIN AND CONVERTED AS 1080P..
SEEMS CRAPPY BUT GUYS HELP ME ABOUT THIS ISSUE....


ANY ONE WHO OWN 5 SERIES TV AND HAS 3D AV RECEIVER ONLY CAN CHECK THIS OUT AND HE CAN CONFIRM IT....
SAMSUNG SUPPORT HAS NOT MUCH IDEA ....I FEEL THAT IS THE REASON WHY 3D PLASMA IS AT THROWN AWAY PRICES...WHEN U COMPARE TO REAL 1080P 3D TV, WHICH HAS HDMI 1.4. WITH AUDIO RETURN SUPPORT..
 
Iam not trying to disappoint u guys, but telling fact..
Iam also buying 5 series for 65k, have booked today ,

my local service guy explained why rate is cheap..
Iam just telling fact it is upscaled 1080p 3d not true 1080p 3d....
In two weeks i will post pic and review of tv..

I don't believe such documentation... I am sure its HDMI 1.4a despite all the documentation bugs.. Check some other models.. some LCD and LED backlit LCDs are presented as PLASMA and the lowest end Plasma 43D490 has documented REAL BLACK FILTER!!!
 
Hello! Friends,
I am back in town. Now anybody in and around Hyderabad willing to demo the tv in place, are welcome! As I don't know much about the technical details, I may not be in a position to write a good review. What I wanted was a big and decent quality screen and I hope I got it. I have a bluray player but no discs, lots of dvd's. You guys are welcome to bring your stuff to test the tv to your satisfaction.
 
u r being good ,generous & helpful! :)...only wish i was in ur place to check in everything thoroughly or even u writing a good review!

I think most of the people in this thread know that this TV PS51D550 is not a full fledged 3D TV. 3D is just an added advantage for this TV IMHO.

Thanks
