"Samsung v, Panasonic" 2010-01-18
By Eric Bertsch (Ventura, CA)
Wife and I bought Samsung 55" 850(LED backlit) as our Christmas present to each other. Ever since setting it up we have loved it. It's a beautiful piece of engineering and display technology. The ease of use is awesome. Deleting unwanted TV channels is a piece of cake, quick & simple. Auto clock & date, too.
The Panasonic 42S we bought today is much more difficult and awkward to delete unwanted channels. Hit the green button for next page of channels to remove or add takes 20 seconds for the new set to load. It takes 15 minutes to get to channel 112 because there is no direct jump to capability. User must start at channel 1-8 the hit the next page button, wait 20 to 40 seconds for pg2 and so on. Even just simple channel surfing, the channel changing is clunky - slow.
TV processor speed and operating software are important yet overlooked elements of deciding which TV we consumers would want to bring into our homes. While we fuss endlessly about it with our desktops and laptops, no one pays attention to it with this new generation of HD digital TV's. There must be specs on this somewhere but I didn't see it mentioned during my shopping research.
We did pay 6x more for the Samsung, but for $700 to $800, the Panasonic s/b much easier to use than what it is. I am considering taking it back just for this reason. Our local cable provider re-arranges the upper digital channels on a weekly basis.
"Amazing HDTV at an incredible price" 2010-01-18
By Perth87 (New York, USA)
After reading the numerous positive reviews for this television on Amazon.com and [...], I decided to purchase this TV. Delivery was simple and quick. The TV itself is very attractive with a shiny black border and stand. I think it is quite thin for a plasma TV. The picture quality is UNBELIEVABLE. The colors were all correct and well saturated in every mode (except Cinema which was a bit green). The standard video setting is excellent but Vivid mode is beyond belief! I watched The Dark Knight as well as the Planet Earth series in blu-ray (on a PS3) and they were phenomenal (especially Planet Earth). The plasma really beats lcd technology with video being far smoother and blacks coming out much deeper than on an lcd tv. The speakers are quite good for TV speakers and there were no issues with the sound being too soft or inaccurate. There are absolutely no negative issues with this television at all.
"Love this Panasonic Plasma!" 2010-01-09

Overall, I am really pleased with this plasma tv. I would recommend it to anyone who likes to watch tv in low lighting conditions. It looks good in the day too, but it really pops in the dark! The sound quality wasn't excellent so if you want a total audio experience I'd recommend a receiver. This TV is probably on about 12-15 hours each day, but it does not get overheated. Out of the box, the stand seemed a little light for such a heavy tv, but it ended up being very sturdy after it was screwed in. It took us about an hour to set up the tv between hooking up the blu-ray, vcr, receiver, satellite, and configuring it. I thought that was pretty good especially since our audio receiver is ancient. Though it still sounds good, it does not even have an hdmi hookup. Next purchase: new reciever/speakers.
"Great TV at a great price delivered right in my living room!" 2010-01-07
By L. Blackburn
The screen is very clear from any angle. The TV remote also works with my blue ray player. So far, I've found no faults. The worst part of the deal was waiting for the TV to arrive.
"Simply a great deal" 2010-01-04
By M. Zugmaier (Monmouth, Illinois)
Purchasing this Plasma was a bit of a debate. I was replacing a Sharp Aquos 32 for a wall mount installation in our family room. I'm not a tech weenie and really need to see the picture and play with the set befor buying. But finally it came down to one issue - viewing angle. I can't tell you the difference the plasma makes here. But this selection was much more. The purchase experience and delivery were superior to anything I've experience before. We ordered just before Christmas and took delivery the following Monday. The price was not the lowest... but I was bound to buy from Amazon because of 'rewards' certificates... we ended up getting a fair deal no matter where we purchased from. The big payoff was Performance..... SUPERB... from the ease of installation and set up... 5 minutes... and the factory settings were almost exactly what we needed. Changing the settings was simple and easy to get the desired results. We know this is a Bargin Plasma TCP42S1 but we we got top dollar results for our choice.
