Rating + 5 Great Deal


Pros: Excellent picture. Panasonic quality at a no-name price.

Cons: None that I can think of yet.

Other Thoughts: After looking at other 32" LCD's in the $500-550 price range locally, and not being all that impressed, I took a chance on this one based on others' reviews. Boy am I sure glad I did. I'm only using it as a bedroom TV, no pc or video game usage; but I can say that this TV has an excellent picture and the sound is fine. I haven't received my new HD cable box yet, but the standard def picture is really nice, no distortion in standard def like I get on my 55" in the family room. DVD's look really awesome, basically just like hi-def, and that's without an upconverting player. Shipping was fast as always, arrived on my doorstep, box in perfect condition, in 3 days.

Rating + 5 BUY IT!


Pros: I am a gamer an this makes all my system's games (xbox 360 and ps3) look spectacular. TV advertised as 720p but goes to 1080i. It has a feature where sd cards from ones camera can be inserted into the TV for viewing of pictures and movies. This TV is a geat buy for the money. Recommend BUY!

Cons: No dvi/vga for computer hookup although one can connect it to the computer via hdmi cable.

Other Thoughts: I like this TV so much I almost brought another the next week.

Rating + 5 Amazing


Pros: Better quality than my brother's 32 inch sony bravia, which costs 100$-200$ more depending on where you look.

Video quality is amazing, audio is great (I haven't noticed a buzzing noise, which my brothers tv has)

You can go through channels very fast as well..the tv is very fast and responsive.

Blu-rays on this tv will blow your mind.

Cons: Won't make you breakfast in the morning.

Rating + 4 Very nice for the price


Pros: Good quality for the price. If you arent looking for a huge TV that is.

Cons: Speakers leave a little to be desired. Menu kinda sucks.

Other Thoughts: Just run what ever device you want sounds from thru a stereo or other type of outside amplifier to deal with the speakers. Other than that, wow. Great image for this price.

Rating + 5 Awesome deal


Pros: This was a great deal when i purchased for $558 on sale, 4 year extended warranty, rosewill wall mount and shipping for under $800! Very impressed with picture even in the small room i have plus no problems so far.

Cons: Sound is okay but most tv's these days need surround sound and in a small room it works out just fine.

Other Thoughts: Look for sales anyone can pick this up for cheap if you look around!

Rating + 5


Pros: incredibly good black levels for an LCD, colors are very accurate, does 720P very well, looks great on my 360

Cons: not good at being a computer monitor, 1080i doesnt perform well i just leave it on 720P, standard def looks okay at best on this tv

60hz refresh rate, although its not really a con since the majority of LCD's have a 60hz refresh rate, if you are a videophile like myself and want to get rid of motion blur you will have to spend more $$ (personal reccomendation either a 120hz samsung LCD or a 480hz hyperdrive panisonic plasma)

Other Thoughts: best tv ive ever owned. I went from a 1080P westinghouse to this and the picture looks way better even though I'm downgrading the resolution. If you are looking for something that does well as a computer monitor you might look elsewhere for a 1080P.

Rating + 5 SUPERB!!!


Pros: Very bright colors, very dark blacks, no motion issues, computer hooks up beautifully(HD video card-dvi to hdmi) 720p and 1080i look remarkable. Sound is good for onboard speakers.

Cons: Controller a little sluggish occasionally, no big deal.

Other Thoughts: Ordered on Wed noon, recieved on Thursday noon next day. Recommend preferred account and free expedited shipping.

Rating + 5 No-Brainer


Pros: Everything about this TV is exactly what I was looking for. Picture is sharp & bright; 720p looks great, no need for higher res on this size screen. My wife is very happy with the quality of the picture and the ease of use. Setup is a breeze; tweak the audio a little bit till you get it to the right setting and it works just fine, at least good enough for the bedroom (already tested with Batman Begins). If you want theater quality sound, hook it up to a home theater sound system, people.

Cons: None to speak of.

Other Thoughts: Free shipping was awesome! Arrived in S. Florida in 3 days from California. Want better than that? The other items I purchased that shipped from Tennessee one day after the TV left the warehouse met up* with the TV in Orlando and left for here on the same truck.

*Obviously they didn't actually "meet up" and go for coffee or anything. I just used New Egg's tracking info. and saw that they left Orlando on the same day at the same tim.

Rating + 5 Crystal Clear HDTV


Pros: This was a huge leap of faith to buy large electronics on-line. The experince with NewEgg - flawless. Pricing on-line, great. Product arrived on the third business day - LA to the SF area. Picture quality from any broadcast HD signal in 720 or 1080 is amazing! If you are still on analog...you're gonna get your socks-knocked-off!

Cons: Similar to another review I experienced "...poor packaging by the manufacturer." I also couldn't believe I go it via UPS in one piece - guess that says something good about UPS. Styrofoam on each corner and top, however styrofoam was broken inside shipping box at top corners of TV.

Other Thoughts: Strong product loyalty to Samsung. Price, features and then seeing the unit in a local retailer next to the similar 720 32" size Samsungs...it wasn't difficult to switch. The only feature I wish was still produced by Panasonic or Samsung - PIP. My first generation 17" HD-LCD from Samsung has it. Other than that, this Panasonic is great.

Rating + 5 Panasonic TC-32lx85


Pros: Awesome picture in HD 720P. Cnet rated this one of the top 32" LCD TV's under the Samsung. However, after talking to sales person at Best Buy, most of there service problems with LCD TV's were Samsung and so I decided to go with the Panasonic. Best overall contrast ratio of any LCD TV this size.

Cons: Poor packaging by the manufacturer. I can't believe that I got it from UPS in one piece. No packing in front or back of the TV. Only styrofoam on each corner and top. Styrofoam was broken inside on top of TV. UPS took 6 days to get from N.J. to VA. Ordered on Thursday and received following Wednesday afternoon.

Other Thoughts: Excellent price for this TV. Local stores wanted full list price. Not a chance from me. Purchased additional 4 year warranty but Newegg should have sent something to verify that an additional 4 year warranty was purchased with the TV. After contacting Newegg service all they gave me was a number to call Service Net. Service Net said it takes about 3 weeks to get information into their system and then call back for a certificate number.

Rating + 5 Great TV


Pros: Price, foot rpint of VESA (no adapter needed). Great picuture, Sound is adequate. Great deal for the price.

Cons: None that I can think og aside from the sleep timer not having 15 minute intervals

Other Thoughts: I bought a plasma and returned it for this TV. this performed much better in the room. I did not have to use the adapter plate I had to buy for the Plasma, this was a simple 100 x 100mm I think. the ohter was 200 x 400, which many tv's this size are.

Rating + 4 Nice TV great price


Pros: Been a Panasonic fan since I bought a 42" Plasma 2 years and happy with their product. Very nice unit, clear picture and set up was easy. Outstanding when watching movie and playing PS3 game at 1080i , pick up most of my local Digital as well.

Cons: Speakers need improvement, sounds very cheap unless Optical out to Receiver from TV plus not enough Component Input and missing VGA In

Other Thoughts: Unlucky to have 2 stuck pixels, needed 6 more to return unit :(

Rating + 4 Great deal, good tv


Pros: Great picture, attractive cabinet, extensive picture adjustments

Cons: Sound is mediocre

Other Thoughts: I bought this tv to replace the Toshiba 32" that used to sit in its place. My ex has since moved out with it. I needed an inexpensive but visually attractive set from a brand that I trust. Panasonic does not disappoint. While I would've appreciated the better sound of the Toshiba, the Panasonic does a fine job. I highly recommend this set.

Rating + 5 BEST quality for the price


Pros: I bought this set on Newegg in order to replace an old CRT screen.
- Excellent color
- Great picture
- Good SDTV picture
- Great connectivity (with 3 HDMI)
- Great sound for an LCD set
- Excellent viewing angle
- Attractive design and cabinet
- Very sturdy. This set is much sturdier than many other inexpensive sets.

This set compares VERY well against many other similar value sets. Panasonic has created a very good quality set for practical and everyday use. Looks great with my PS3!

Cons: Lacks a VGA input. I wouldn't use this screen for an everyday computer monitor anyway since its native res is only x720.

Remote sensor is a bit irritable. Make sure you are pointing the remote control right at the set.

Other Thoughts: I could not find any other set comparable in quality in this price range. (even though the price dropped 5% two days after i bought it, oh well :) )

If you are looking to upgrade to HDTV on a budget, this is a wonderful idea. Don't pass up on this one.

Rating + 5 Great TV


Pros: Great Picture, sound (for a LCD tv), and ease-of-use. I receive standard television channels and it looks good. It shows it just as good, if not better than CRT televisions. It'd done research on choosing a HDTV about 2 months, and I'm sure I made the best choice. The viewing angles are amazing! I believe it's advertised as 176 degrees or something. The only angles that I'm not able to see a bright clear shot is if the screen is blocked by the frame, or if I'm behind it entirely! It's also lightweight and feels very sturdy.

Cons: No VGA port... Not a big deal, I just connected my PC to it with an hdmi cable. Speakers make a popping sound when I have been using it as my PC monitor and disconnect it. It could just be my computer, but I don't think it did it before when I had it connected to other monitors with speakers.

Other Thoughts: I watch TV on this, and have both my xbox 360 and computer connected to it through hdmi. It looks awesome. For a screen this size, there is no need for 1080i. I've bought many things from newegg and pay close attention to the reviews. But this is the 1st item I've ever actually commented on myself, if that tells you how much I recommend this HDTV.

** I did not buy this TV from newegg. I had found a better deal at the time, but it is a great HDTV!
