The war between plasma and LCD has been going on for some time now. Every year each technology gets better and better. The Panasonic TH 50PH9UK 50 inch plasma TV is no exception. With its stunning picture quality, it might make you think twice before buying an LCD TV.

The Panasonic TH 50PH9UK is a feature packed 50 inch plasma television.  Since Panasonic builds their own plasma panels, they are able to offer incredible features for the price. Such features include a built-in high definition tuner, HDMI inputs, 10,000:1 contrast ratio, and an ultra bright screen.  It’s hard to find a better value than the the Panasonic TH 50PH9UK. The Panasonic TH 50PH9UK also allows the user to customize picture settings for different inputs, and the TV will remember those settings.

The experts agree that the Panasonic TH 50PH9UK is an outstanding value. It produces outstanding color accuracy, with excellent black level performance. It even has a VGA input, perfect for using the TV as a monitor. Consumers will appreciate the clean lines that the TV provides without having the speakers attached. Because the TV does not come with speakers, not everyone will appreciate having to buy a sound system to go along with it. It also does not come with a stand.

The Panasonic TH 50PH9UK could use more inputs, particularly HDMI. However, most users have found that only one HDMI input is sufficient as most people only have one HD source. It only has one component connection as well. It also will not allow the user to switch aspect ratios on HD content. Still the Panasonic TH 50PH9UK represents one of the better values in plasmas today.
