Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Have owned this Model in the 54" variety for about one month now. The high gloss frame looks sharp. Despite some forgetful kids leaving DVD's on pause, I've noticed ZERO Image Retention issue, as Plasma's are known for. In case you do have any Image Retention, the TV has a nice feature that is designed to eliminate or reduce the effects with a scrolling pattern of alternating black/white bars running across the screen. Another issue Plasma's are known for is reflection due to the shiny glass screen. There is an Anti-Reflection coating of some kind on this TV that is evident, as reflective images don't show up clear, but rather hazed. That being said, there are few issues I've noticed with reflection or background light.
Setup was easy, plenty of inputs for A/V Components. I've paired this unit with Dish Network HD service and it provides a beautiful HD pic. Sports and high action are without a doubt superior to LCD's I've compared (both in the store and on my own Panasonic Viera X1 LCD).
I will agree that the sound from the speakers on the unit is lacking, however, anyone that buys this or any other flat panel should be cognizant of the fact that you will not receive the best sound from the internal speakers. The manufacturers are packing quite a bit into a little space. Odds are if you're buying this or a similar unit, you're matching it with a Home Entertainment System or Home Theater Receiver and surround speakers, as I've done which should eliminate "Sound shortcomings."
Through some minor haggling, I was also able to pick up a Panasonic Blu-Ray player for free from the retailer I used. Without a doubt, a wonderful move! What a SUPERB PICTURE!
I would definitely recommend this TV to anyone in the market for a Great Picture, without a lot of fluff and/or frills! Keep in mind; if you're looking for widgets, you can buy a Blu-Ray (with widgets) cheaper than buying a TV like this with widgets added on!
