Good value for what's on offer
One of the things we love about plasma TVs is the fact that colour reproduction is often excellent
With the Panasonic TX-P42GT30B proving a great example. Colours are bright
Vibrant and realistic
And movies look fantastic. The integrated 3D technology also promises to bring films to life. You'll be able to access programmes from both Freeview HD and Freesat HD

It's a struggle to find anything wrong with the Panasonic TX-P42GT30B itself
But there is one big omission – the lack of any active glasses to go with the TV. Instead
You'll have to fork out an additional £110 per pair if you want to watch content in 3D.
The sticker attached to our Panasonic TX-P42GT30B promises that this HDTV is “Perfect for 2D & 3D”. It's not perfect, but it is excellent, and we can't think of anything better in this price range. Its NeoPlasma panel and light-rejecting screen coating al...
Good black levels, Accurate color, Solid selection of streaming media apps,
Power hungry, Some fringing in dark scenes, Doesn’t get very bright when correctly calibrated,
A 50-inch, 3D-ready plasma HDTV, the Panasonic TC-P50GT30 offers solid performance at a reasonable price, but its hunger for electricity and some fringing in dark areas of its picture hold it back. ...
With both 2D and 3D content, Panasonic's TC-P50GT30 is a very good performer, and its well-rounded features package hits all of the desirable bases: Web-based video-on-demand, an included WiFi adapter, DLNA streaming, and even Skype video conferencing...
The GT30 is a good set, but apart from slightly spiffier aesthetics, more cable clearance for a wall mount, an additional HDMI input, a PC input, and THX certification—which is of questionable value in this particular case—it offers little that you can't...
The Panasonic TC-50GT30 plasma not only delivers a deliciously lush 2D picture, its rendering of 3D Blu-rays is one of the best that I have seen. Add to that a strong troupe of Internet content providers and this VIERA GT30 makes a great centerpiece to...

The Panasonic TC-PGT30 has excellent overall picture quality, with deep black levels, accurate color, and solid video processing. It can handle 1080p/24 sources and bright rooms well and exhibits the nearly perfect screen uniformity of plasma, as well as
Picture quality flaws include subtly fluctuating black and gray levels as well as inaccurate gamma that washes out shadows somewhat. The GT30 has fewer picture controls than the competition, doesn't include 3D glasses, and uses significantly more power th
Excellent all-around picture quality combined with improved features and styling should make the Panasonic TC-PGT30 TV a favorite among bigger-spending plasma seekers.
Panasonic GT30 has - like most of Panasonic's other new 2011 TVs – many useful multimedia features built in. First of is the USB recording function (on EU models) and DLNA that lets you stream video, images and music from other electronic devices. But the...
Abstract: There are innumerable TV's available in the market which would surely catch your attention. However, there are only a few which would perform well. The all new Panasonic TC-P50GT30 is a class above the rest. It stands somewhere between the upper and middl...
Abstract: LG met davantage l’accent sur ses téléviseurs à lunettes passives. En testant ce 47 pouces à lunettes actives, on ne peut qu’être d’accord. La 3D est plutôt décevante. Il y a beaucoup ...
Images 2D et 3D très agréables, Excellent taux de contraste en mode THX (5310:1 en moyenne), Crosstalk quasiment inexistant, Angles de vision très ouverts, Pas de Blackfloating en mode THX
Qualité sonore tout juste moyenne, son étouffé, Ecran brillant sujet aux reflets, Léger sifflement du transformateur d'alimentation, Consommation électrique élevée: 340 Watts en mode THX et 230 Watts en professionnel
Le GT30, plus contrasté que l'ancien GT20, offre une excellente qualité d'affichage une fois réglé en mode THX. Si les plus exigeants choisiront le VT30 pour son image parfaite, le rapport qualité / prix est clairement en faveur du GT30....
