Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ85U 50 1080p Plasma HDTV

I am very happy with the TH-50 Plasma HDTV 1080p 50PZ85U satisfied because the size is very thin and very impressed by the progress of the art Panasonic Viera and her picture is also very clear that we are really grateful for the pictures on this plasma TV found

I just got my new panni plasma yesterday and I have to say it is a great plasma for the money! I've done enough research over the past couple of months, you'd think I was searching for the lost Ark! But, it helped alot in picking the right set. I watched " the incredible hulk" last night on blue ray and it was awsome! Picture quality is really good and its not even calibrated yet. Standard tv is ok, but after watching HD its hard to go back! The sound is pretty good also, except for high volume. All in all, I am very pleased with this plasma and with the service with Amazon!

I ordered this TV on 11/26 and it was delivered on 12/1! The white glove delivery went off without a hitch via Pilot delivery. Two men were on time, set it up and waited to make sure it worked, they then removed the packaging materials and left the TV in pristine condition. As for the 85u itself, it is nothing short of movie nirvana. I admit that I am not a major A/V guy, but I do know a little and this set delivers. I started my search for a big screen TV thinking that LCD was the only way to go. I own a 32" Samsung LCD and it is a wonderful set. I was nearly going to get the Samsung 46" 650 TOC because of the 120 Hz response feature when I read an article on another site comparing the new LCD's with the new plasmas. When it comes to motion blur, or lack of blur, nothing beats a plasma which typically has something like a 480 Hz response! A thorough checking of plasma's led me to the Pioneer's and the Panasonic's. The very competitive price on the Panasonic made my cho... Read more

I purchased a Samsung 630 a short while ago, and have been very happy with it. It's for the living room, which gets a lot of light, and I figured an LCD with a matte screen would be a good choice. Well, the problem with getting one HDTV is that you'll soon want another one elsewhere in the house. I wanted to put one in a basement rec room. Rather than get another Sammy LCD, I thought I'd go for a plasma since it was a bit cheaper. Plus, the basement is not nearly as well-lit as the LR, so I figured a plasma would work. After researching a lot of plasmas, I settled on the 85U series. I was torn between this and the 80U, but given that there was just a very minor price difference (less than $25), decided to go for the 85U since it has a higher contrast ratio (although a lot of reviewers say the difference between the 2 models is negligible). Got the TV and, since the basement was still being remodeled, temporarily put it in the LR so it would not get dusty or damaged. I was very... Read more

Glad I bought this TV from Amazon. After you plunk down your money and wonder about all the things that can go wrong with a big screen TV being shipped to your from where, it's worth about another $100 having bought it from Amazon, no worries. White glove delivery is worth at least another $100 on top of that. So glad I didn't try to buy this thing somewhere and try to drag it home myself. Amazon asked me, are you sure you are willing to wait a month or two for us to deliver this tv? I said yeah, I don't want it from the camera shop. Three days later they shipped the TV. Tracking, Pilot. Who's Pilot? Take the tracking number and Google Pilot Freight. I called Pilot as soon my TV hits their destination dock. They'll set up a delivery appointment with you. Gene, the driver called me the morning he was coming out to remind me of the delivery, said he would call me again that afternoon 45 minutes before arrival. He did. When he showed, I asked, hey, no helper? I can't compla... Read more

Our new Panasonic Viera TH50PZ85U is fantastic. The promptness and professionalism of Amazon's delivery service was excellent. Some of the features of the set will probably never be used, but the pricing from Amazon was so competetive that I decided to get this one vs. the 1 step down model. At least now I will never doubt or question my decision had I purchased the other 1. The menu and set up procedure was easy and quick, and the HDMI connections enabled hooking all my components so easy. I find the TV sound a bit weak when setting the menu to the built in surround mode. Speech and voices were a bit hard to hear and recognize easily, so I turned that mode off. When I want surround sound, I enable my a/v receiver and use its speakers. Overall, a great value for a high quality set. We do have some daylight glare issue with the plasma screen ,but they are minimal and easily corrected by closing blinds on a window. Night watching is never a problem.
