The Panasonic Viera TX-P42G10 - One For Your Shortlist

January 14th, 2010

The blazing new Panasonic TX-P42G10 is among the first NeoPDP plasma tv sets you are able to purchase in the united kingdom. It proudly features a NeoPDP plasma screen that doubles the brightness output per watt used of every plasma cell. Putting it another way, the TX-P42G10 plasma HDTV from Panasonic will display the same level of brightness output when you compare it to its past generation predecessors, all while using barely only half the amount of power.

This means that it should not have problems getting brightness levels that are normally reserved for LCD televisions. Further aided by an onboard Freesat tuner and 600Hz Drive IFC Pro, the TX-P42G10’s quality picture stands out as well as other higher rated flat screen TVs that are out already.

The Panasonic TX-P42G10 does not have the thin chassis layout that is understandably left for their much more expensive line, but it is not bulky at all, it has a really thin glossy black framing bezel for the plasma screen. It also has a convex silver colored trim separating its logo from the curved bottom, and it sits on a shiny oval-shaped pedestal stand though it does not swivel.

The Panasonic TX-P42G10’s great quality speakers will spit out surprisingly loud volume and beefy bass without distorting, but falls a little short as you would think with the stereo imaging and audio resolution due to the speakers being hidden and pointing down.

The TX-P42G10’s high quality speakers will blow out really loud volume and punchy bass all without distorting, but it falls short as you could expect in the area audio resolution and stereo sound due to the speakers are hidden and pointing down to the floor.

Measurements have the input lag with game mode running at around 21ms faster than Samsungs F96 LCD television. Even when Game Mode was disabled, it toe to toe with the F96 no matter if the IFC was on or not.

The Panasonic TX-P42G10 was Panasonic’s first stab at gaining to the top spot among plasma TVs, and its black quality has gotten so pure that its comparable to high end LCD televisions, but this unit lacks a bit in analog reproduction.

This is Panasonic’s first try at getting to the top with great plasma TVs, its black quality has gotten so much better its to the point of high end lcd TVs, they are still behind pioneer in terms of correct color reproduction and standard-def video. Either way, if you wont look over Panasonic for leaving out controls for white balance and the TVs lower quality SD deinterlacing which is fixable by using a nice quality input source do it for you, it is an excellent value to cost thanks to its nice inky blacks, having great shadow details, nice natural colors, superb clarity of motion, hardly any input lag, and the onboard Freesat tuner, along with a wide viewing angle, and low power thirst, this is a nice television. The remote control that comes with it has large and clearly labeled buttons that give you nice touch feedback.

Have a Look at the Sony Bravia KDL32W550 0U

December 6th, 2009

Everyone knows that Sony is a good brand name tv set, and the Sony KDL32W550 0U is one of the many models on the Bravia range. This is the top of the range and the “W” series consists of a’20×1080p Full HD panel, which has now become a standard feature, but the “W” series was the first to use this technology.

This KDL32W550 0U model is an LCD TV of course and for this kind of top range tv the price is very reasonable. It features 4 HDMI inputs, and Ethernet jack which allows the Applicast to work and connect to the internet. A USB which is able to handle video, music and photo files of all kinds, and whatever else you need it for!

Technology used includes 100Hz Motionflow and of course the Bravia engine image processing. Retailers are stocking these KDL32W550 0U TV’s at reasonable pricing and this is one of the more attractive aspects of buying this technologically advanced TV.

The attractively framed KDL32W550 0U screen is a generous 32″ and is more than adequate, it looks more compact because of the glossy black bevel surround. Take care of scratching, although the television does come packed with protective covers on the scratchable surfaces. These glossy surfaces look good, but much like mobile phones which are also packed with protective coverings they also get scratched with heavy use.

The KDL32W550 0U is definitely a compact unit so it is ideal if you don’t want a television to dominate the room. Let’s face it, most of us girls don’t want the kind of TV that does this. We want something that looks good and serves its specific purpose. I have read reviews that say the Sony 32E5500 looks better but I really don’t believe this is true.

Most Sony screens have a “Wega Gate” type menu, but the Sony KDL32W550 0U has done away with this for a more innovative user interface, much the same as the interface used by the Sony Playstation 3. This is a very neat concept and I really like it, however other people may prefer the more traditional menus. The menu is displayed with icons rather than words such as “color”, “contrast” etcetera, so they may take some getting used to.

Getting used to the KDL32W550 0U menu may be difficult to get used to for the traditional menu user. Take my father for example, he thinks my TV is so advanced it doesn’t need a remote. I just don’t tell him that I have hidden it so he can’ meddle with my settings. You know what men are like with remote controls!

The video processor on the KDL32W550 0U works fine as far as I am concerned, I don’t really know much about the technicalities of this. So read the tech specs if you want to know more. Mine works, the picture is fine and I get a fantastic quality picture with videos and DVD’s on Thursday night Chick Flick night, so I am more than happy!

In conclusion, if you’re looking for a great looking TV at a great price and want it to get admiring glances from your friends, buy the Sony KDL32W550 0U Bravia. You won’t go wrong, it’s a Sony!
