There's so much detail for this review, I don't even know where to begin! It would be helpful to state a precondition that this plasma ultimately replaced a Samsung 42" 720p plasma, which was tipping the scale at 6 years old, but still had an incredible picture for its time. Within the last several months, I spent a lot of time watching 1080p content on my friend's TV, and started noticing the difference. If anyone out there is not a believer that 1080p will blow your old fabulous 720p set away, believe it as it will.
This was one heck of a quest. Let's rewind the clocks a bit as this all started back in December 2008, when I was visiting ABT checking out their newest HDTV lineup. I had been itching to get a new TV, and having had a plasma all these years, I was determined... Read more Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?  
37 of 46 people found the following review helpful  Not nearly as good as the mainstream reviewers say, June 24, 2010 This review is from: Samsung PN58C7000 58-Inch 1080p 3D Plasma HDTV (Electronics) UPDATE: After owning this TV for six months, I've reduced my rating for these reasons:
* The TV is getting brightness banding.
* The latest Netflix app is flakey. Samsung technical support refers you to the Samsung PR department when you ask about an obvious software bug, which is mildly insulting.
* Samsung overcharged my credit card $7 when I registered for their app store. It is a small amount, but it kills goodwill, especially when I didn't buy anything. Past that, the Samsung app store is a joke. For example, it has an app that advertises anti-zit cream and does nothing else.
* Google TV seems to be a better platform than Yahoo Widgets. I wish that I waited for the Google product. This Samsung TV is a current model, but the Yahoo firmware already makes it seem slow and outdated.
* My old Roku player is better in every way than Internet@TV.

11 of 12 people found the following review helpful What a great TV, AFTER updating firmware! Full 3D Review!, September 8, 2010 This review is from: Samsung PN58C7000 58-Inch 1080p 3D Plasma HDTV (Electronics) I purchased this last week and got the bundle, Samsung Blu ray player and 2 pairs of glasses etc.. Got the TV up and running for the last week and now have a great idea of how much this thing can do and how well it performs/looks
Out of the box the Tv looks amazing, love how slim it is and the overall clean look. I started watching with the current firmware and the quality just didnt look that great, I almost thought about returning it! The Motion jutter control really makes it look like everything is a soap opera, really annoying. So I downloaded the newest 1026.00 Firmware and WOW, what a difference with picture quality and clarity of this set! Amazing!! Just some simple tweaks and turning the MJC off make it look stunning!
3D is my favorite part of this TV, I have watched almost everything possible this week on Directv and 2 3D blu ray movies.. There is almost no ghosting or "crosstalk" like I saw at Best Buy on the UN8000 LED TV. Its amazing how much "pop"...
