Plasma TVs > Hitachi Plasma TVs > 1000 GBP to 1499 GBP

Advantages: Looks very nice cosmetically
Disadvantages: All A/V inputs differ from international standard (unless someone can prove otherwise)

...useable. All in all, unless Hitachi (who won't talk to me) are a little more forthcoming with a solution. The TV's going back, which would be unfair on the retailer who has been very good up to now. I like the TV, it has all the features I was looking for and at a price I could afford. I don't recommend this TV for anything other than basic operation. I'd be pleased to hear from anyone who faces the same situation. brndudh@aol.com ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent picture, easy set up, great sound
Disadvantages: Magnetic dust appeal makes you feel dirty

...we moved across to 32" Samsung CRT things were far more reliable, but this lovely TV was doomed on its arrival in our house as Hi-Definition transmissions first bought a Blu-Ray player then Hi-Definition TV channels into the home. At this point I won a television so big that it literally took over the house this 56" Samsung LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) also had limited days, you could not see passed it, anytime we had visitors it was literally a ...
...model that I eventually purchased, Samsung offer it in both a Plasma or LCD option, Plasma £449, LCD £899; half the lifespan Plasma, but half the price. Having researched these facts I decided that Plasma was most definitely the way to go, to be real in 7 years there is more than likely to be a new television that will knock our socks off. Onto the Urban Myth, and I was told that the Plasma TV's were considerably more heavy than LCD, and the three ... Read review

Advantages: mind blowing hi def play back
Disadvantages: it will cost you!

...immediately hits you about the Pioneer is how realistic the colour pallete is - blacks are very black - nothing quite comes close. Both Standard def (freeview ) and HD are well represented, with the latter simply mind blowing on this set. Watch something moody like Sweeney Todd - and the screen just oozes quality - images almost look 3 dimensional. The sound output is equally impressive on the undermount speaker -I still prefer outputting via a ... Read review

Advantages: Amazing quality images, lots of features, looks great.
Disadvantages: We weren't quite ready to pay out for a new TV.

...different websites; pricing up different Panasonic models and seeing what the feedback on these items are online. We wanted to go for Panasonic because they seem to be the leaders in plasma technology, plus my sister has one and has no complaints whatsoever about that one, which is always a good start. We thought that since we're going to be making such a big purchase, we may as well get the best we can 'afford' rather than buy a cheap one to make ...
...as it was on a Panasonic promotion which I think has just ended. You can get it cheaper at John Lewis at £759.. or get them to match Richer Sounds at £729 as JL TVs come with a free 5 year warranty automatically but you may be hard pushed to find them in stock as soon as they come in, they sell out again and that's why we had to get it from Empire Direct and pay just a little bit more. I've also just heard that Currys may have it at £699 so maybe ... Read review

Advantages: great picture and sound
Disadvantages: maybe too big

well what can i say about this piece of brilliance. it really is a top class tv that is pretty much faultless in my opinion. it has great surround sound and has a pretty much perfect picture. i have always been a little bit aprehensive about plasma tv's because i feel that they can take up too much space if they are too big. i think this tv is the best type at it's price range. i think that it's a really good value for money and think the chance ...
