Rating + 5 Great TV, Great price


Pros: Great price, full 1080p, amazing colors and it is simply amazing to look at.

Cons: None so far

Other Thoughts: I'd recommend this TV to anyone, it is great for the price and looks simply stunning.

Rating + 5 Awesome! But not perfect.


Pros: Excellent color, very bright. Anti-Glare screen works well. Almost no input lag with game mode. Great for gaming!

Cons: 600hz really doesn't do much since the tv runs at 60hz. LCDs that use 120hz actually refresh at 120hz and input the signal at 120hz with interpolation. But these plasmas just input at 600hz and display at 60hz. All plasmas do that though, even Samsung.

Other Thoughts: Plasma response time is .001ms, but there's still a little motion blur. It's the best you can get with plasma though and it's far better than a 4ms or even 2ms LCD.

Rating + 3 Broke after 5 days


Pros: Very good performance/price ratio... sound is decent (not great but not bad)... doesn't have THX-certification but Blu-Rays look amazing...even SD looks really good.

Cons: It turned itself off after 5 days and wouldn't come back on. The people at Panasonic were nice on the phone but couldn't get anyone to come out for almost a week (unacceptable IMO). I will be returnng this to the store I bought it from (not newegg).

Other Thoughts: I sit ~8 feet from this TV and it looks really good.

Rating + 1 Second TV arrived with shattered screen


Pros: None.

Cons: This is the second plasma tv to arrive with a shattered screen. Something is wrong with the delivery chain. I just hope I can get a complete refund this time and go pickup one at the local TV store.

Rating + 1 Arrived with screen shattered


Pros: So far, none except Newegg agreed to resend a replacement TV.

Cons: Main con is the thing arrived broken, so somewhere on this delivery chain from the factory, someone goofed.

Rating + 5


Pros: Perfect picture, very easy to customize picture and sounds. The best looking TV I have seen.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: I don't really understand what other people were saying about it not having good sound. They must have been trying to watch TV with a vacuum cleaner between them and the tv.
You could probably use the power LED as a night light.

Rating + 3


Pros: Good price and service. Great picture.

Cons: Speakers on this set face down. I have to have sound all the way up to hear content on some channels. Panasonic sent a repair tech to analyze the problem and he recommended taping cardboard to the back of this brand new set to redirect the sound waves. My other option was a sound bar or home theater system. Not much of a bargain with this added cost. If I had it to do over I would make a better choice.

Other Thoughts: When calling Panasonic for tech help be prepared to be on hold for a looooong time!
