Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ800U 50-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV Reviews

Summary: Great TV and delivery
Comment: The TV has been performing well and I still have not seen a price within several hundred dollars of the Amazon price (savings is even greater when you consider there is no sales tax-would have been 8.75% for me). The CEVA white-glove delivery service was excellent. The 2 guys unpacked the TV for me, helped me install the base, set it on my entertainment center and waited for me to connect my Directv receiver so we could check the picture. I would definitely buy this TV again and wouldn't look anywhere but Amazon.

Summary: Nice quality Plasma
Comment: This Television has excellent quality. I like the ability to choose THX setting from an on screen menu which produces realistic colors. Has easy to access front mounted controls under a door. A nice capabilty is to read SD camera cards and display the photos right on the screen (photos look great on this large screen!!). I also like the all glass front. I wish Panasonic had done something more elegant along the outside edges other than a black metal strip (small gripe). Overall very happy so far with this television.

Summary: Hands down the best plasma performance and price wise
Comment: The battle wages on between LCD and Plasma, but I know I chose correctly when I picked up this television. I have had it now for over a month and I still am as mezmerized as I was on day one. The colors and picture quality are absolutely brilliant. I have a friend that has a 1080p LCD TV and it does not hold a candle to the overall picture quality of this plasma. Again, the one drawback to a plasma screen TV is that it has a glass front, so if you are planning on having this in a room with lots of light and window, reflections will be a problem, and you might choose an LCD. But if you have a TV area like mine, hands down this is the best value and quality. 3 HDMI inputs (2 back, 1 front), 2 component inputs (1 back, 1 front) and your regular cable and composite hook ups available on back as well. The menues are easy to navagate, and the remote is user friendly. This also has an SD card slot that can handle the SDHC cards up to 16gb so you can display your digital photos. The only thing I wish the TV did was on the picture slideshow it allowed you to play music (mp3 files) during the display like some photo frames. Oh well, my pictures look excellent. Finally, my blu-ray movies and my HD-DVD movies are spectacular on this TV. Look around, but you will come back to see that this TV is a best value hands down.

Summary: Great TV, Great Service
Comment: I baught this TV mid July and recieved it less then a week latter. I have absoulutely no complaints about the TV. It performs as advertised. It is without a doubt the best plasma I have ever seen. Perfect picture, sleek design, quality build. A big thumbs up for Amazon. I have called twice and recieved two refunds using price guaranty. Prompt delivery + prompt refund = great shopping experience.

Summary: Excellent TV!!! Couldnt be happier
Comment: After some searching on CNET for a good choice, I came across this TV. CNET rates it as an 8.7 and awarded it their Editors Choice Award for May 2008. This was enough to get me interested in it.

The THX mode on the TV delivered incredibly accurate colors right out of the box, almost no extra tuning required.

The only this I wish this TV had was an onscreen TV Guide build into the TV, and DVI port on the back VS the VGA that it has.

Other than those 2 minor complaints its a perfect TV in my opinion.
