October 2008, after receiving a credit note for my last faulty plasma which was written off. The A556 is a 5 series plasma, offering full 1080p HD technology on a 50 inch screen. The screen has a piano black finish, which looks stunning. At the footer of the screen is a glass trim with a small ice white LED glow located at the centre. To the right of the panel, are 5 Touch buttons for On/Off, volume up and down, source and menu. There are no buttons, you simply rub your finger across the writting, and the function works. That s 5 ugly buttons neatly removed from the screen. Connectivity: There are plenty of connections to the rear and side of this plasma including - ...

I purchased this TV back in April 2007, after my previous LG 42" Plasma went faulty. The TV is 50" HD ready plasma (720p or 1080i is it s maximum output) It weighs in at arrond 45kg including the table top stand. This set has a matt black finish, with a silver strip across the bottom, which I feel breaks up the huge black screen nicely. There the Samsung logo located at the footer, with the power button underneath this. Now, for a ON/OFF button, it is damn sexy. It lets of a circular blue glow when on standby, and flashes each time you change the chanel / adjust the volume. Connectivity on this set is great too, with 1 x HDMI, 2 x Scart, 1 x Audio IN, 1 x ...
