This plasma tv looks awesome mounted on the wall in my gaming/ chilling area! Xbox 360 looks perfect on it and i sometimes hook my overclocked beast of a PC to it (via DVI-HDMI or HDMI-HDMI cable) and max out the eye candy, and let me tell you...ITS UNREA
Excellent performing plasma. Has nice hook up and card slots. The built in speakers will get you buy until you get a surround system. We watch fast actions sports/movies and this plasma does a great job following the action without shadows or pixelizati
I had researched for months, I ended up buying a cheap phillips set from Sams Club, had terrible sound, ended up the sound quit working. Took back for a full refund. After more research I found this TV. At the time of my purchase amazon was about $100 do
There is simply nothing about this TV I can find to complain about. No blur during action scenes, great balance, shadows and color. Tried out our Discovery Channel's "Planet Earth," and took our breath away with not just the picture but t
Can't find a thing to complain about. Fantastic Picture, sound as mentioned in other reviews........
We did a lot of research on LCD and Plasma before purchasing this TV. Glad we went with the TH-50PZ80U Panasonic Plasma from Amazon. Purchased couple months ago at a great price and white glove delivery was superb. The colors and blacks are stunning and B
I did alot of research on this product. I found the best price on Amazon.com. I found 99% of the reviews, whether consumers or HDTV critics, were excellent. Once I received and set up my new Plasma, I was totally thrilled at the beautiful picture quali
I finally replaced a 14 year old 45" Pioneer Elite Projection with the Panasonic 50" TH-50PZ80U. Fretted for months on wether to get LCD or Plasma, but very happy with my choice! I was worried about glare...not an issue with my setup which doe
Outstanding picture, blacks close to Pioneer Kuro (have 2) at less than half the price. Good entry-level HDTV. Integrated tuner gets decent reception.
The picture is stunningly beautiful, when watching HD-DVD or Blu-Ray DVD's. Regular DVD's are also very sharp when played on an upconverting DVD Player. Analog TV channels look pretty bad on this 50" screen, which is normal. I also like its
Pros: LOVE THE TV DOES REALLY GOOD ON 1080P. GREAT ON SAT DISH NETWORK. Cons: DID NOT GET IT SOONER Summary:
Pros: I waited about 8 months from the time I wanted this TV to the time I hung it on the wall. This set is perfect. Cons: I am using it as a display for my Denon AV-988 so all I needed was one HDMI Summary:
We've been heavily using this HDTV for about a month and it is a great HDTV. The image is amazing and the colors are terrific. Breathtaking, actually. As always, Amazon's price was very competitive and their White Glove Delivery made the whole
Christmas is coming so save your cash! Why purchase something you can get for five bucks. Go to gifts4xmas.info and sign up. Complete ONE offer - I would recommend Netflix All companies are well known so there is no risk involved- give it a go! I got my P
Great picture! 1080p to drool for! Blu-rays look amazing, the colors are crisp and the blacks are great. I could not be happier with my purchase.
We researched plasma tvs for weeks and finally decided on the Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ80U 50-inch 1080p Plasma HDTV based on the customer reviews. I could not be happier!! The tv functions beyond our expectations and within all of the customer reviews.
I have had this TV for about 2 weeks. I love it! I got it through amazon via OneCall. I ordered it on a Saturday, it arrived the following Wednesday. The wall mount bracket came on Friday and by Friday night it was up on the wall. It has great picture, an
Like many others I spent some time trying to decide between LCD and plasma. I have a 32 inch Sharp Aquos LCD in our bedroom, which I bought last year at Best Buy and it cost me a few bucks more than this 50 inch Panny plasma from Adorama Camera through A
This is a great TV. Its my second HDTV and by far the bet so far. The white glove delivery by AMAZON was great. The white glove delivery was the reason I decided to buy online. The guys carried the TV upstairs, unpacked it and plugged it in to make su
I have had ours Panasonic 50" Plasmasince July of this year 2008), I have a bunch of kids & was leary of the track record of some of these other manufacturers I was considering, in regards to warranty assistance SHOULD the need arrive! I tried (I
We bought our Panasonic Viera 50-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV after reading the reviews here, and we haven't been disappointed. The picture is great, and it was quite simple to set-up. We combined our purchase with a Yamaha RX-V463 receiver, Bose 301
Should I buy online or from a store? I had all the fears of stepping out on the edge. I have never ordered from amazon and have heard all the debates on lcd vs plasma. I did the online and instore research for a month. My wife finally said just buy the
Panasonic TH-50PZ80U TV Overall, I love this TV. It is fantastic. A few comments: 1. The speakers are great, as far as TV speakers go. Anyone who complains about them are just surround-sound speaker snobs. That's like complaining that your Ferra
This a great TV! Super clear, vivid colors, great size and great service from Amazon. Prompt delivery service directly from Amazon, fine package opening and set-up. I paired this with a Panasonic Blu-Ray player from Amazon and am doing some serious disc
Like so many,I reviewed information,went to stores and "eyeballed" the many sets available.Finally made the decision to purchase the 50" Panasonic based on features,picture quality and price.Have had it now for a month and could not be more
This a great TV set. I am glad I went with this over LCD. No degredation in the picture at all from a wide angle; even the best LCDs cannot match that. It's just like a regular CRT TV set but much sharper and bigger; which means it's nothing lik
I'm not an audio or video expert, just your average joe who appreciates a great television experience. I've been pining for an HDTV for several years, tried to be patient until the quality increased and the prices decreased. This year I started
I ordered this TV 1 week ago today and am already watching it. I am 100% satisfied with the delivery service, the TV, and its price! I had to make one phone call to the 888 # given while setting it up. The woman I talked to at that # was extremely knowl
Excellent product. Very happy with it in every way. Stable stand - no need to purchase a separate stand.
I have always been very reluctant about plasma tvs but after reading about and reserching the newest models from Panasonic and the upgraded technology I became a believer. The picture on this tv is really incredible. Great contrast and color with amazing
After months of research, going to stores and scouring the internet I settled for the Panasonic TH-50PZ80U. This TV is one of the less expensive 50" Plasmas but has great picture and the HD channels are very clear. It has great reviews and in the w
After a few days with this TV, I am mad at myself for not ordering it sooner. This TV is great. Amazing black level, very crisp, rich colors, it makes everything look better. I'm upgrading from a 37" LCD and I'm totally sold on plasma te
Every good thing you read in the reviews about this TV is validated when you view the picture.Sharp high resolution, good sound quality for built in speakers and an almost infinite picture tuning capability to customize the viewing preferences of the own
The picture on this tv is incredible. The detail is amazing. It is extremely clear and makes watching television an extremely enjoyable experience, particularly sporting events. I would recommend this televison for anyone in the market for a plasma tv.
I did a lot of research before purchasing this TV. I quickly realized the panasonic plasma was the way to go, I just needed to figure out which model. I decided to go with this one because it gave the best bang without spending too much coin. I absolut
The battle wages on between LCD and Plasma, but I know I chose correctly when I picked up this television. I have had it now for over a month and I still am as mezmerized as I was on day one. The colors and picture quality are absolutely brilliant. I h
What can I say that others haven't already? I owned this tv for 5 days now and I am absolutely floored! I held off of buying a flat panel tv for over a year because I thought I needed to spend $2500-$3500. I finally broke down after finally accepting
The picture quality is just jaw dropping. The blacks are awesome and even the explosions show texture in the bright yellow/orange hue. SD looks great too. Since these Plasmas were under R&D well before 1999 at their Osaka factory (which I visited) I
TV is perfect thus far. it took me 2 years to finally buy one and im glad i waited to get this one.
This was the cheapest 50" 1080p plasma I could find from a reputable brand and store. 6Ave delivered it to my house at no cost (although they could only deliver on a Saturday, which was inconvenient), and set it up on the stand and tested it before
Great television. Crystal clear picture. Some reviews mentioned buzzing in the speakers and also heat but I do not have either. Perhaps improvements have been made. Even my best friend mentioned how it emittedless heat than the 32 inch lcd monitor that I
I have only had this tv for a few days but so far it is awesome. I looked for almost six months before buying this baby and it is everything my wife and I had hoped for. I would recommend this tv to everyone. I can also recommend buying it from 6ave thr
I researched different brands and types of flat screens for several weeks before settling on the Panasonic plasma tv; I was pleased to see Consumer Reports recommended this particular set as well. We purchased our Panasonic plasma set from 6th Ave Electro
Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ80U 50-inch 1080p Plasma HDTV I've researched HDTVs for the past 3 weeks very intensely and shocked myself when I ended up with this Panasonic 50PZ80U. I told myself I would stay away from Plasma due to the stories of burn-in (
We looked at and compared many HDTV's before going with the Panasonic plasma. We compared LCD vs. Plasma and decided the plasma was the best way to go for us. The lives of these new plasmas have increased greatly from where they use to be. We have
We had a little trouble getting our T.V. at first. When it arrived the screed was broken. No problem though. Amazon quickly reordered and shipped the new one to us. We are very pleased with the T.V. It has good sound and a great picture. Looks great hangi
right out of the box this plasma looked good but then I tuned into the HD channels and MLB HD and Wow!. I wont have it calibrated until 150 - 200 hrs of viewing to allow some break in as Panasonic recommends to prevent burn in images. Hope to have some mo
This is just an incredible set, I can't rave about it enough! We did a ton of research on LCD Vs. Plasma and decided to go with Plasma because of the sharper picture quality and the fact that Plasma's are better at handling high speed images whi
This tv was at least $500 more at the traditional stores (Best Buy, Ultimate Electronics...). We bought it with free shipping and it was delivered by two people with in just a few days of us ordering. It is a great TV!! Beautiful picture!!
I bought this TV last spring and paid $1600, something I'd said I'd never do. Brought it home and set it up and was a little stunned to find out that I needed to upgrade my DirectTV receiver to HD. After all was said and done, it truly is the
