  • 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
  • Streaming video-file support isn't comprehensive
  • Ads embedded in the TV guide
  • 3D content looks darker than on other sets
  • Expensive
  • Engaging 3D is a faff
  • Outmoded design
  • Annoying EPG
  • IFC side-effects
  • 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

  • Abstract:  While Panasonic's TC-P54VT25 isn't the first 3D TV to hit Canadian stores, it's the first to arrive in my home theatre. For the past week, I've been watching a limited range of 3D and wide range of 2D HDTV programming on this 54-inch plasma....

  • Good 2D and 3D picture quality, useful Viera Cast Internet features
  • Less attractive than Samsung's Series 7
  • Panasonic's TH-P50VT20A 3D-ready plasma television is an excellent performer. It has exceptionally good contrast and detail levels, making it an easy choice if you want the absolute best image quality from your television...

  • Abstract:  The Panasonic TX-P50VT20B's plasma tech should, in theory, make it better at 3D.LCD and LED-backlit LCD TVs sometimes have their 3D-ness marred by ‘crosstalk', where elements of picture information intended for your left eye are relayed to your right eye,...

  • The modern day consumer is spoilt for choice! He can go for LCD televisions, Plasma models or even the LED's. So where does the Panasonic Viera TH-P65VT20D 3D Plasma television stand among all the different types of television? Is it really worth shelling...

  • The Panasonic VIERA TH-P65VT20D is priced at a maximum retail price of Rs. 3,79,000. This is a really costly piece of technology, which does deliver some stellar performances, as far as 2D playback is concerned. The ability to play movies through a fla...

  • 3D looks a lot better, good HD picture quality, plenty of connectivity, price
  • High power consumption, comes with only one 3D glass, USB does not support NTFS
  • The P50VT20D is priced at Rs. 1,99,990, which is expensive. On the other hand, you'll probably get a 46-47-inch 3D LED for this price, so if size is what you're looking for in this budget then the Panasonic is a better deal. The P50VT20D has a lot goin...

  • Stellar 3D & 2D Performance, Deep Blacks, Useful VIERA Cast Feature
  • Lacks Film Cadence Detection
  • Our Final WordThe 3D TV panorama is far from settled, judging by how things are progressing. With Toshiba entering the fray with a glasses-free prototype, we guess anything is possible as far as 3D standards go from here. Panasonic, however, has made the ...
