The huge 1920 x 1080 screen produces fantastic black level response and punchy
Deep contrast. Performance is exceptional in 2D mode
And there’s only a slight hit to picture brightness and contrast when you switch to 3D. In fact
3D pictures are more watchable (if a little less bright) here than on large LCD and LED 3D TVs
Mainly thanks to low levels of crosstalk ghosting – the line-doubling ef

The editors didn't like
The sheer size of this telly means that any picture issues are easy to spot
There is slightly more 3D crosstalk than on Panasonic’s 50-inch plasmas
And despite some classy upscaling tech inside standard definition content can lack detail. These are really just symptoms of a large screen though – not really Panasonic’s fault.
Some are crisper
Occasional stutter
3D could be brighter
2D could go deeper
Uncomfortable 3D glasses
No DivX HD
Poor value remote control
IFC sideeffects
Some judder issues
Activating 3D is a chore
3D pictures lose a lot of brightness
Bland looks
Dated operating system
Some issues with 50Hz viewing
Streaming video-file support isn't comprehensive
Ads embedded in the TV guide
3D content looks darker than on other sets
Awkward 3D eyewear
Inconsistent and unimaginative menus
Ordinary sound
Ads in the TV guide
Minuses
Glossy screen leads to reflections
Glasses can get uncomfortable
No rubber tips
Mediocre remote with no backlighting
Slightly high energy consumtion
302 W
Ambient light detector can't be turned off in THX mode

Plasma TVs generally aren't as bright as LCDs and therefore aren't the best choice for a really bright room with lots of potential light reflections, This 3D TV does not offer 2Dto3D conversion, and you'll have to pay $150 for each additional pair of 3D glasses, The TCP54VT25 does not have integrated WiFi, and it does not support DLNA media streaming.
The TC-P54VT25's selling price of about $3,000 is slightly higher than that of similarly equipped LCD models from Samsung, LG and Sony. Remember, though, that the package includes one pair of $150 3D glasses, whereas the others do not. The overall cost...

With both 2D and 3D sources, Panasonic's flagship TC-PVT20/25 series plasma TV delivers outstanding overall picture quality.
The Panasonic TCP54VT25 displays incredibly vibrant and realistic 3D and 2D images,
There is no 2D to 3D conversion.
This is an excellent TV with an excellent 3D effect....

The Panasonic TC-P50VT20 didn't exactly wow us. It's picture quality was average, its online content was fairly sparse, and it's 3D experience doesn't seem particularly robust. Don't get us wrong: we're grateful you can actually watch 3D on it at lau...
