Samsung PN59D6500 59" Plasma Smart HDTV Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

The video presents an in-depth unboxing and first look at the Samsung PN59D6500 59 inch plasma smart HDTV, conducted by Linus from Linus Tech Tips at a Samsung showcase in the NCIX store. Linus begins with the model introduction, noting the plasma plus one concept where the slim bezel makes the 59-inch panel feel effectively larger, converting to a 60-inch viewable display. He discusses packaging differences for plasma boxes, mentions the importance of careful handling due to the panel’s fragility, and identifies the included stand mount and various accessories. Throughout the segment, he highlights the Samsung Smart TV features, such as in-box apps like YouTube and social browsing capabilities, and he emphasizes the brushed aluminum base design as a notable aesthetic detail. The unboxing sequence includes removing packing materials, inspecting a wide accessory bundle, and setting up a demonstration area for the TV, while he jokes about his willingness to crawl inside the box to access components, underscoring the scale and heft of a 60-inch plasma display. By the end of the first portion, Linus has the TV positioned for a closer look at the back panel inputs and overall build quality, framing the upcoming hands-on evaluation and comparisons with LCD/LED technologies.
