Feature count is strong
The editors didn't like
Twinkling too present whatever the source
Lack of fluidity with HD sources
Still a risk of burnin
PC use not recommended
Not the deepest blacks available from plasma
Picture improvement over lower resolution Panasonic plasmas arguably not quite enough to justify price hike
Unsurpassed video performance in low ambient light and very high brightness combined with crisp image.
poorer performance in bright rooms, mediocre sound, high price.
This 50-inch 1080p plasma monitor is expensive, and must be judged critically on that account. With its generally very good basic video performance, the big Panasonic plasma merits some serious consideration. This set excels when it comes to sharp con...
Abstract: A pair of pretty Panasonic plasmas. I wish I could say I had some clever reason for reviewing two nearly identical plasmas. Perhaps there was, but its lost to me now. A few months ago, Panasonic asked me if I wanted to review the TH-50PZ700U, so I s...
Abstract: I first saw this TV at the Consumer Electronics Show back in January and I've been hassling Panasonic about getting a review sample ever since. You see, the TH-42PZ700B represents a landmark in the plasma high definition TV arena, and it strikes a hefty b...
Abstract: 1080p plasma TVs have long been the fantasy of video enthusiasts. So naturally, many of us drooled with excitement when the first affordable 1080p plasma TV sets were announced earlier this year from Panasonic and Pioneer. Perhaps the drooling was th...
Great value for money, full high definition picture on large display, excellent HDTV tuner, plenty of inputs.
No 1080p24 support or 1:1 pixel mapping for HD sources, poor 576i scaling and de-interlacing.
The Panasonic TH-50PZ700A provides most of what we want in a true HDTV. Its colour is great. We can easily overcome the scaling and deinterlacing issues by using a high quality upscaling DVD player. The only real let-down for me is the lack of 1080p24 ...
Excellent high definition and gaming performance, great integrated speakers
Some issues with standard-definition scaling, small amounts of pixelation in PC mode The Final Word This is a great TV, but it does come at a high price. For purely high-definition playback, however, its hard to beat.
This is a great TV, but it does come at a high price. For purely high-definition playback, however, its hard to beat.
Abstract: Last year, Blu-ray was the next big thing, and this year its Full HD -- at least if youre listening to Panasonic. The company has released four new 1080p plasma panels from 42-inch to a massive 65 inches, with barely a word about content and what is ...
Abstract: On croyait le plasma à l’agonie. Face à un LCD omnipotent dès qu’il s’agissait du Full-HD, les constructeurs de plasma étaient dans l’impasse. Mais Panasonic vient aujourd’hui remettre les pendules à l’heure avec cet écran 50 pouces… et Full-HD ! ...
Colorimétrie plutôt bonne (après réglages), Bruit vidéo peu prononcé sur les sources SD, Niveau du noir bien profond (0,17cd/m²), Excellente réactivité comparée à un LCD classique, Connectique...
Scintillement trop présent quelle que soit la source, Saccades avec des sources HD, Risques de marquage toujours présents, L’utilisation d’un PC est à proscrire
Ce plasma sort son épingle du jeu avec une colorimétrie acceptable et un noir bien profond. Hélas, son scintillement omniprésent (en 50 ou en 100Hz) fatigue l’œil et on regrette la gêne occasionnée par le marquage...
