Its a great penny. The picture and sound quality is excellent. The anti reflective screen is great unlike many TV's in the market today. We use my laptop DVD player to watch movies which is not possible with this TV. You need to buy 85U or greater version to connect it to your laptop. If you are planning to buy panasonic plasma it would be helpful to go to panasonic website (www.panasonic.com)...
Strengths: picture quality, design, fit/size
Weakness: could have smaller borders and a better remote
i picket up this tv on a price mistake from sears, and i have to say it is great. it has a great picture and looks awesome. i havent run the spects dvd on it to tune it but i did notice that it does produce a lot of heat and there are 3 fans on the back. it also eats a lot of electricity rated at 690 watts.
Strengths: Displays all my signals (XBOX360, PANASONIC BMP-30, DIRECT TV HDDVR, KENWOOD MUTI-DISC PLAYER)perfectly through my Denon AV-988.
Weakness: None at all, I researched this set before I bought it
The purchase of the Panasonic PH-50PZ80U went perfectly online. I however never received a tracking number. I did get a delivery call to set up delivery for 5-days later. This was fine; I took half the day off from work for a 12-4pm delivery only to get a call at 1pm that my delivery would have to be rescheduled. So we rescheduled for the next day (my only day off) for 10-1pm only to get one cal...
Strengths: Easy to set up. Good Remote. Easy to use. Great picture. SD card slot for easy digital picture viewing. IMHO a more natural picture than an LCD. Anti reflective coating on the screen.
Weakness: Like any plasma is less efficient than an LCD. Uses about 200 watts per hour. Over the life of the product, higer cost of ownership than an LCD. Weak speakers.
Bought this unit from 6th avenue. Excellent color. Anti reflective coating on the screen reduces glare in a bright room. Good 1080 upscale from DVD player, looks almost as nice as PS3 BD output. Excellent picture quality,and feature mix at a value price point. My neighbors love this set and have positive comments about it.

Excellent Plasma Choice!!!
Strengths: Excellent picture clarity from anywhere in the room. Quick color selections like Game, Vivid, Custom, etc.
Weakness: None so far
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 a den that has a couch 10' - 15' away from the corner TV area. We originally bought the 46" version of this plasma but after price shopping found the...
