Customer Review
Don’t be fooled by the plasma stigma
This TV is the best buy when it comes to dollar per inch. I purchased this plasma at a local retailer for $630, and am very, very impressed with the unit. The picture is fantastic, and puts my old 32″ Sharp LCD to shame. The black levels can’t be matched, the menus are responsive, and the resolution looks nearly the same as a 1080P television.

I use this television to play games on and for movies. My xbox 360 works beautifully with it, and I have seen no evidence of image retention.

Movies look great. My friends always want to come over to watch movies on my TV due to it’s fantastic picture and size!

I like the remote. It’s not the most ergonomic, but it certainly gets the job done.

Speakers are awful. Hook up a 5.1 surround sound unit and solve the problem. I recommend stereo Polk, Klipsh or Sony component speakers and a simple 5.1 channel amplifier with a optical-in.

FYI, this TV runs linux.
I rate it 5*. No issues or problems, easy set-up. This TV weighs about 90lbs, I suggest a sturdy stand.

Customer Review
Excellent Plasma, but very pricey
This is my first plasma HDTV purchase. The picture quality is fantastic. This is a NeoPDP panel (single pane of glass)
The panel thinness is still amazing to me. A screen this big and this thin looks crazy.
The sound is surprizingly good… the included speakers are also extremely thin. Not huge bass, but still very good for TV speakers.
The wireless feature is nice… especially for those who want a wall mount installation. You still have the option to use an HDMI cable from the separate tuner to the panel, if you like. I am using wireless, but on a stand. The stand has glass shelves. I have the tuner component on a lower shelf. Line of sight between transmitter and receiver, for the wireless, seems critical. This may be since I have the receiver almost directly over the transmitter.

The Viera Cast is nice, except I haven’t been able to get the Amazon-On-Demand to play anything. It logs in and I can access content… nothing plays. I have contacted both Panasonic and Amazon… twice and have not received a comment from either. You Tube, Picassa, Weather Channel and Bloomberg all work well. Viera Cast could be a very nice feature if they can add more content… Vudu, Hulu, Netflix, etc. would be nice.
The THX picture setting option has a yellowish hue… this seems to be inherent in the THX settings that Panasonic is using.

Pros
Picture quality
THIN screen

Cons
Price (although I did get this well below MSRP)
Amazon-On-Demand doesn’t play

Wonderful TV
I spent many hours researching HDTVs and looking at them in showrooms before deciding on this one. For the price, you will not find a TV that has better color and contrast.

Pros:
- Very accurate colors at every angle.
- Deep pitch black blacks.
- Lots of HD inputs.
- Under $1,000 when on sale.
- Almost zero glare (impressive for a plasma).
- True 1080p HD picture.
- Simple easy-to-use remote.

Cons:
- Very limited color adjusting controls.
- VGA input instead of DVI. Guess I’ll need to get a video card that has HDMI out.

Excellent All Around…
I have had this tv for more than 6 months now and am extremely pleased. The color is very sharp and very well detailed. No problem with refresh rates at all, and you won’t be able to tell this is not a 1080 tv.

One issue I do have is the sound. The speaker is fine with broadcast tv or with cable; however, when playing a blu-ray disk or PS3 game the sound needs to be cranked up. I don’t know if it is the nature of the tv itself or if the hardware is defective. I should note I returned this tv once after purchasing because the speaker gave off a hissing noise. Replacement model had no such problem…it just seems strange that my only issue has been the speakers (which have caused me problems in the past). Perhaps it is just my own experience and not reflective of this model as a whole…but I thought it worth mentioning.
Regardless…this tv is a great value.

Nice TV, great picture, easy set up
My last Panasonic 42″ was stolen in a home robbery.I bought it 4 years ago because it was the one of the highest rated by Consumer Reports at the time. This is supposed to be the upgraded model and still highly rated by CR. The picture is great, big difference with the 1080p. It was simple to set up and offers lots of screen options. I was not happy with the delivery. I paid $99 for 1-3 day delivery and did not receive for over a week (7 days). I am still requesting the refund which was promised.

Hard to beat the deal.
I gave hard consideration to buying Samsung’s 58 inch B650 but couldn’t pass Amazon’s deal on the Panasonic’s 58S-1 with the Blu-ray. I wound up paying $1475 for the TV which is $200 cheaper than what I paid for my 50 inch Samsung two years ago. While it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that others have, it has everthing that I will use consistently. The picture is great and sound is not an issue as I’m hooking it up to an A/V Receiver. For the $$ I saved, I can buy a good mount and some HDMI cables. Delivery for this monster was within a week.

Great TV!
I just bought this TV from another retailer. Great TV and a great price (less than $800!!). I really prefer the plasma picture over LCD. Truer blacks and no fast motion rendering problems due to the 600Hz speed. Even if you don’t need the true black image, you can’t find a 46″ LCD running at 240Hz (currently the top LCD speed) for the same price point. I am very impressed with the TV and wish I could find the same bargain on a 55 – 60″ model for my family room!

Excellent buy on an excellent product!
I rarely take the time to write product reviews, but in this case I felt like it was really worthwhile. I spent a few months researching TVs and I am always reading in forums, checking showrooms, etc. There are some fantastic TVs out there on both Plasma and LCD sides (LEDs still too expensive in my mind). After countless hours looking at all my options, I narrowed it down to a Samsung LCD or a Panasonic Plasma. This TV was to serve as the main family unit in the living room. I have a Sony PS3 (Blu-ray & games) and DirecTV HD DVR receiver to connect to the TV. My friend has a Samsung 650 LCD that has really nice color and decent performance, however I notice some motion issues when watching fast sports or with the PS3 connected. I also think the Samsung’s colors are a little unnatural. Already owning a 2 year old 42″ Panasonic Plasma (700u model), I was able to do a pretty good live comparison between the two before purchasing the G15. The plasma’s blacks were better and the color was more natural in my opinion. Also, the plasma didn’t show any artifacts or motion issues no matter the content unlike the LCD. [Yes both TVs were calibrated, so please don't flame me for giving my opinion] The bottom line to me is both are great TVs and you have to choose based on your needs and your taste. I decided to go with the G15 Panasonic after seeing a calibrated unit at my local store. It was absolutely beautiful. After owning the TV for more than a month, I can tell you that it was the right choice for me. I was really proud the other day when my brother-in-law (Samsung owner), watched a HD NFL game on my TV and stated it was the best picture he had ever seen.
