After much research we ordered this Panasonic. [...] & it took my son all of about 5 to 10 minutes to set up & program. Very easy. It's a beautiful set with a fantastic picture. It's for our bedroom, replacing a 12 Yr. old 32" Panasonic which is still going strong. Love it! I know we made the right choice.

Reviewed by Rich the TV buyer (Enthusiast) from Carpentersville, IL on Oct 13, 2008
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Bought this product for my mom so she can enjoy movies and TV in High Definition. I bought the 2005 year model for myself back in 2005 and have no complaints. This new model comes with 3 HDMI ports, that is awesome, 1 for cable/satellite and 1 for Progressive scan DVD with 1 left over for....blue ray maybe? Mine only has 1 HDMI, so I am a little jealous. This model also has a faster display rate at 8ms. Mine is 14ms, though I haven't noticed much artifacting during movies. The slower the rate the more blocky explotions look. The TV is useable with the cable company's remote which is an added plus because to watch DVDs or play a game console you have to change the input type (HDMI1 or HDMI2 or Component 1 or 2) depending on the input the device is using. 2 button clicks and your watching your selected device.

Best Uses: Home, Movies

Extremely satisfied. We did a great deal of research before purchasing and heard many good things about this line from Panasonic. Setup was quick and easy. Lots of input options including 3 HDMI connetors. Oustanding viewing range, almost no glare (in a house prone to glare), no image distortion from any angle. Only complaint is occasional fuzziness or ghosty images, especially on non digitial channels.

The TV has a great picture with HD channels and regular DVDs. Also has auto input selection when used with other Panasonic products.

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great TV, I was looking at the "37" inch 1080p model at first but for half the price this more than fits the bill for my use.From what I read 1080p in a TV under 47" is a waste of money. I have a small living room and anything bigger would be overkill. Viera link feature is excellent if you have a Viera capable DVD.

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
From the time I started unpacking the televison to the point where I was viewing, maybe 5 minutes. Still haven't looked at the manual, remote is easy to understand. Multiple source inputs are great. Speakers are adequate, but I use an audio system to listen anyway. HD broadcast from over air source, very good. DVD's look better than I ever expected. Blacks are black, have not had any problems with fading or tinges of white around edges. Fast action scenes, appear totally normal.
