This TV has been discontinued.
The Samsung F5500 Plasma TV has the same panel as the F5300, but comes packed with more features. It adds 3D and Samsung's Smart TV interface. The screen still reflects a lot of light, so you will need a dark viewing environment to enjoy it.
Our Verdict
7.6
Mixed Usage
The Samsung F5500 Plasma TV has the same picture quality as the lower F5300 model. This means very good picture quality in a dark environment, but a washed out picture when the lights are turned on. Unlike the F5300, though, this TV has a smart TV interface, as well as 3D.
Pros
-
Good contrast ratio.
-
Good motion handling.
Cons
-
Reflects a lot of light. The screen appears grayish when the lights are on.
-

Though it can get brighter than the Panasonic S60, it also has more reflections.
