The glare that some people report is depending on the tv's position in relation to the light source in my set up my windows that are my maine light source are locared next to tv and it doesn't affects the picture. And another reason I bought this tv was because it was thru Amazon and there White Glove Service you can't beat it and it was delivered by Ceva very pleased with the service overall and dom't forget the best price period. This tv is fantastic almost perfect. One more thing is that the sound is a lot better than your average flat panel tv is has plenty of bass so much that when my brother heared it the 1st time thought that the sorroimd sound system was on and he owns a 52" samsung lcd. I hope you find this review helpfull I know my electronics and I work with electronic devices Panasonic = quality. I bought this tv a month ago and I've tried all the features that it offers the 24p is good is you don't have the brightness to high, feed from cable using HDMI excellent, have Wii using component cables and the PS3, Xbox 360 with HDMI and WOW excellent picture and no lag also no image retention unless you leave it paused for 30+ minutes I tried and even at 35 minute there was only a little ghost but after I kept playing it was gone. My favorite setting for daily use is THX I just incresed the brightness just a bit.
I don't have a blue ray hooked up to it as yet, so I have not experience true 1080p. There are no negatives to associate with this product. I am looking forward to that experience. I am very impressed with this Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ800U. I've only had it for a short time but I like what I see so far.
He did not leave until it was ascertained that the TV was set up and working properly. The delivery man was knowledgeable and courteous. Delivery was as promised with enhanced delivery from CEVA, which is a free Amazon service for TV's over 40".
The Panasonic model TH-50PZ800U is also rated high in Consumer Reports. Since this is a top of the line unit I would think Panasonic would not try to diminish its capabilty. This unit is as advertized, an excellent 50" 1080P HDTV.
We were so satisfied with the 42" Panasonic, that we used for 3 years, we wanted to stay with the Panasonic brand. This is a great service. I would have preferred that this TV had "cable card" capability and "TV Guide", which we had on our Panasonic TH-42PX600U, 720P HDTV, that was replaced with the new 50" HDTV.
Because the new TV does not use a cable card (rented from cable company) we needed to rent a higher cost HD receiver from the cable company which adds complexity.
I have an old Pana/5 disc dvd player which is 480i and no upconvert. My plasma came from Amazon, not one of their venders. Thanks to Amazon & Panasonic Plasma was in mint physical condition.
Be an informed buyer and check out all aspects. There are other great products out there, as good, maybe better, maybe cheaper, maybe more expensive, and it comes down to the bottom line-You have decide what is right for you, NOT, what others think is right for you. Big ticket item online-many scary stories that others had. Well, decided to save money and bought my Panasonic 50" plasma Viera from Amazon. OUTSTANDING SERVICE & PRICE. Great delivery guys-tip them out if you can afford to.
Plan to get a new upconvert pana 760-BUT MY POINT BEING-movie even at 480i is still outstanding.AMAZON-Great Company, Service, Prices, and will continue to do buisness with them.PANASONIC-OUTSTANDING, 20" to 32" to 50" DLP to 50" Plasma, okay, I stay with products that have given me what I wanted. MSRP $2400, paid $1781, free shipping, no tax, white glove delivery-You do the math-GREAT DEALPanasonic Th-50PZ800U picture is so outstanding it's scary. Plasma was the right move for me, even in a small apt. A few tweeks here and there for my tastes and I may never leave the house again. Ordered on a Tuesday afternoon, TV arrived that Friday at noon, order said between 7-10 days. HDMI hook up with digital cable. Prices changed almost daily for item, some venders charged shipping.
If you read all the pros & cons, yes there are small drawbacks but YOU must decide if it is enough not to buy it. floor, unpacked. I saved another $150.00 by waiting 1 day. White Glove at no charge-brought up to 2nd.
The only things to note is light from a window directly across from the TV will be reflected by the glass and it puts out a surprising amount heat through the front. The TV has been flawless for 7 months. The picture rivals a movie theater, Blu-Rays look amazing and DVDs look so much better.
