Panasonic TH-42PX60EN

Advantages: Cheap, Great Picture
Disadvantages: No Upscaler, NOt Full HD only 720p

...This Plasma HDTV I have had for a year now and it has not let me down yet. Now I would like to analyse the TV so that the rest of you are convinced on purchasing one.. DESIGN Firstly I would like to say about the design now; it looks fantastic I just love the colour and the sleek design. Now you might be wondering where the hell is the speakers? Well its right under the Panasonic label hidden away under the silver colour. I didn't notice it myself until a few weeks when dust got on it and I was able to see the grills (Speaker holes). I think this is pretty good as you don't have to worry about the speaker making the TV look bad like a lot of TV's I've seed with ugly speakers. All I can say it this saved me a lot of as my living room would not have enough space to have a 42" with speakers on the side. Now the screen of the TV...

Review of Panasonic TH-42PX60EN

Panasonic TH-42PX70

Advantages: Good value, good image quality
Disadvantages: Sound quality is probably the major disappointment here, not a true 1080p screen

...the general consensus is that for 42" and above in size - to still go for plasma over LCD technology and that Panasonic and Pioneer were at the front of the fiend. The Pioneers models are generally a bit more expensive so I chose the panasonic. An excellent feature is the 10000:1 contrast levels - the screen always looks bright and images tend to look sharper because of this. Having compared many TVs before purchase, this tv was selected as it is excellent at displaying whatever signal you input - e.g. digital tv, even analogue looks quite good, dvds are shown very well evem via scart and hd signal via HDMI is phenomenal. Surpisingly, many of the plasma and LCD tvs available are not especially good at displaying normal digital TV (not HD). This panasonic does a very good job of this (but I still think the images still look poorer than they did...

Review of a Panasonic TH-42pz81B

Advantages: good with Xbox console
Disadvantages: price

...Review of a Panasonic TH-42pz81B Not a bad bit of plasma kit, a bit expensive but with panasonic you pay for the name, The picture very good, blacks a quite decent, glare of the screen is very low, in High Def full 1080p the picture is very sharp and coulorful, movies are cool like being in the cinema but without the idoit eating skittles next to you. Sound quality is good but if your paying this for a TV you can afford home Cinema system. I found unlike My Lg 42inch plasma this TV works really well with Xbox360 and Playstation 3 console, well up there with LCD for gaming. Good HDMI connection and other ports, would recommend this TV, the only way your going to get anything better is to stump up sony prices...

Panasonic Plasma TV - 42 inch Viera One Glass

Advantages: Too many to list
Disadvantages: pricey

...When looking for TV's these days, it helps to have research done as what the TV's are all about these days, what you get for your money, and how technically minded you are, Today, you either get Plasma or LCD with most of the old Cathode Ray Tubes(CRTs) phased out. One such model is PZ800B model 42 inch made by Panasonic. This range of TV is claimed to be the top of the award winning VIERA range from Panasonic. If you do not want to comprimise on quality, then believe this is the TV you want to go for. SIZE This model is 42 inch and also available in 50 inch. So when choosing any TV, make sure it fits! Unless of course you hang with a wall bracket on the wall. APPEARANCE Panasonic call this design 'one sheet of glass' and boy you can really appreciate it when you place it on the purpose built stand...

Panasonic TH-42PWD7 Plasma

Advantages: Good Picture Quality, Easy To Use, Well built
Disadvantages: Not High Definition

...This is a great television on the whole. But if you are considering buying it, then there is one crucial thing that I must point out. Panasonic has designed this television to have the ability to select the inputs that you want. So if you want a scart and a HDMI input, then you buy the boards and slot them in. Many shops will offer this television with preinstalled inputs, but I noticed that the majority of shops offer the television without any boards fitted. The VGA input is built into the tv (VGA is for connecting to PC). So what do the boards cost? Well it really depends upon the input you want, but from major retailers you can expect to pay anywhere from £50-£150. The boards are really easy to install, but access to them at the back of the television is a bit limited. There are four screws that you need to remove to remove...

42 Inches of Pure Bliss - Panasonic Plasma

Advantages: Great visuals, affordable, Full HD, built in speakers
Disadvantages: None

...Panasonic 42 Inch Plasma - Live without it? What life! Well we needed a new TV since our 14 year old Sony 20inch seemed to be dieing and so we began the long an arduous journey of 'Time for a new TV'. It took a while to decide whether to get an LCD or Plasma and well having gone everywhere, literally, I'm glad to have the plasma (Dark colours look better and no blurring, unlike a lot of LCD's). Also we were set on getting a 42inch because with all the lads round playing Guitar Hero World Tour we couldn't have anything less. So eventually after we went to the Panasonic store in Newport to check out their best we decided on what we wanted. Shock! My dad went out and got a 37inch LCD (He tried arguing with the man in the store LCD was better, he got shot down). But we still managed to fork out enough money between me and my brother to...

42 Inches Of Pure Pleasure!

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

...room that will become unusable once the flooring is taken up to lay the pipes... not to mention the fact that Christmas is now less than 3 months away. Anyway, as per usual I digress. We've been looking at 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 do with and then have to buy another one not too far down the line. Well, we finally decided on this model as although there have just been some newer models released, it's still one...

Review of Panasonic Panasonic Viera TH-42PZ80

PANASONIC TH42PX60B 42" Plasma TV

Advantages: Amazing picture quality, HD Ready, NICAM stereo sound, stylish stand.
Disadvantages: No back to the stand which makes it hard to conceal inflexible scart leads.

...Stereo, which is clean and crisp. It also has a built in digital receiver which means you get about 25 'freeview' channels (depending on your coverage). The only disappointing thing about buying the latest technology is that it is never the latest for long! In a couple of months it will have gone down in price £££s and they'll be a new model to replace it. Irritating but unavoidable! All in all this is a great TV and I can't see anybody who buys one regretting it. It's great to watch the sport on! In my opinion Panasonic are one of the better TV manufacturers. Splash the cash and enjoy!...

Review of PANASONIC TH42PX60B 42" HD Ready Digital Plasma TV

Awesome Panasonic TV

Advantages: Everythin
Disadvantages: Price

...Since 1972 Panasonic have grown as a well established company in the UK. The Panasonic TH-42PZ700 is an awesome piece of kit. This in layman’s terms is a 42” Plasma screen HD Ready television with Free View built in, which will connect to every accessory you want it to. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Build Quality. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx The build quality looks tough and durable though in my opinion any TV this price needs to be looked after properly. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Picture Quality. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx The clarity and picture definition is unbelievable especially if you are using the High Definition feature. Let me explain a little about High Definition TV this is a digital signal that is now being transmitted which allows your TV to display a picture with a higher screen resolution and a clearer more vivid picture. A lot of TV’s are now being built...

Review of Panasonic TH-42PZ700E

Stylish, good value 42 inch TV

Advantages: Size, picture quality, quite stylish
Disadvantages: None found

...This is a great TV. Whilst it feels a luxurious size, it is practical and easy to use. When wall mounted, it is also more subtle than you might imagine, well when off anyway! It is hard to make a TV beautiful ,but the designers at Panasonic have done their best and the TH 42 PX 70 is bevel edged, with black framing of the screen so it does manage to look reasonably elegant. The main feature is of course the screen. In my opinion, this size fits well into a living room. It is a bit of a focal point, but does not dominate the room too much. The resolution is excellent. The picture is clear and detailed (737280 pixels), with good colour balance. Clarity is good, even in poor atmospheric conditions (I live in the sticks). The picture also looks natural and less harsh than on some TVs that I have seen. The flat screen reduces...
