This series of samsung plasmas are lemons. I almost spent 3K at Best Buy and would have been very upset to get this model home and have issues like so many others.

Don”t believe me?

Just Google Samsung Buzz and you will get over 70,000 hits!!!!

@Jeff: If you don’t play games on it, then burn-in won’t be a problem. Also read the burn-in guide on this site.

What about burn in? Is it an issue or not? I’ve heard mixed things about the subject. We don’t play video games. I’m in between this set and the Samsung 8500 series LED. Money is not an object. I want the best picture with the least amount of problems.

@Manjit Guleria: That might be a problem if you are living at a high altitude (from sea level). Plasma TVs make a buzz-like sound at high altitude. Even so, it is not that loud to be distracting unless you mute the speakers or the volume is low. Aside from the sound coming from this altitude issue, I don’t really see a reason for this TV to make humming sounds. I’ve watched it and didn’t noticed any humming sound (however I don’t live at high altitude).

Can you please comment about the humming sound that some reviewers have written about regarding the PN58B860 model. I am considering buying this in the next couple of days so would appreciate a quick response. I read two people who purchased this model saying that there is humming sound that can be heard from even 15′ away. Even after replacing and getting a second piece it still had the sound.
