4 Stars Great value for the Price
I bought last year’s 50 inch version of this tv (Panasonic TH-50px75u) and loved it. Last year I did months of research to find the right tv, and decided plasma was right for me. I liked the darker blacks, and plasma handles sports better than HDTVs at the same price level. The 720p resolution was great from more than 10 feet, so the price was right. I really liked the Pioneers too, but the premium pricing was too much for me. Samsungs were similarly priced, but I didn’t like the frames and that distracting blue light on the front.
So when I wanted to get a tv for my bedroom, I came back to Panasonic. I looked at several models (1080p versions, bigger versions) and ultimately decided for the price and since it was for my bedroom, that I would be happy with this version. I couldn’t justify spending 200 or more extra to get a 1080p version when cable is broadcast in 720p or 1080i.
I am very happy with the choice. Yes, if you stand within 4 feet of the set, you will see a screen door effect from the 720p resolution, but back off further than that (I am about 10 feet away in bed) and the picture is crisp and clear. At 42 in (and even 50 at normal seating distance), it is very hard to discern any resolution difference). The blacks are rich and the colors are vibrant. I also like that Panasonic was more thoughtful about where they placed the connections on the back this year, which make it a bit easier to get to them. And I find that the speakers are better quality than last year (and again, for the bedroom, just fine). I have my larger set hooked up to a receiver and speakers to manage sound in the living room.
The drawbacks: this tv doesn’t resolve some of the deep color gradients like a more expensive set would. For example, when there is a sun on the tv, you can see the rings of color subtly rather than the tv solving those into more of a smoothing effect. Not a big deal, but it is noticable. Also, I am not a fan of the stand this year as opposed to the previous year. It just seems a little cheaper, but still does it’s job.
So, bottom line, a great tv in its class. If you want top of the line, you will have to spend significantly more. But this set is still very good.
3 Stars “White Glove Service” Opinion
I recently purchased this TV for $699.00 with Amazon’s Free “White Glove” Delivery Service. While the overall ordering experience and price through Amazon was great, the “White Glove” delivery service was truly disappointing.
The set was shipped through CEVA and as promised, they called me in the morning to set up an evening delivery appointment. However, the deliveryman was alone (despite the “Dear Customer” letter he handed to me that clearly said that there were to be two deliverymen); nearly 1-1/2 hours late; and was very hesitant to unpack the tv set as promised by Amazon’s White Glove Service. He clearly wanted to get home as it was nearly 9:30 pm. If I had to do it all over again, I would have bought this tv down the street and carried it over myself. The promised deliver service was a big letdown.
Bottom line: Think twice about Amazon’s “White Glove” Service.
4 Stars Good quality product
Taking heed of previous reviews’ problems with installing the base stand, my wife and I took extra care in maneuvering the screen onto the prongs of the stand (two people are required unless you’re Charles Atlas). The quick installation guide misled us into thinking the attachment was external, but the user’s manual cleared up the confusion.
Channel setup was easy but not perfect. The automatic program missed the analog signal of one station and the digital signal of another. I still haven’t been able to manually achieve those channels. We are in the fringe area of both stations, but analog and digital signals of another station broadcasting from the same location were registered properly.
A DVD player/recorder/digital tuner & analog converter hooked up easily, and now I’m pondering how to hook up a VCR when analog signals cease in February.
5 Stars Wow!!!
Having read countless reviews of HDTV’s by new owners, I recognize that we all have similar stories of agonizing decision making. I have also noticed a tendency to gush about whatever TV has been purchased. Sometimes there are thoughtful critical and reflective reviews. I’m going to gush!
I didn’t start out to buy a 720p Panasonic 42 inch plasma. My original target was a 1080p LCD in the 37 to 42 inch range. The price range was $750-$1000. I did my internet home work and created my short list of 7 TV’s. Then I started visiting showrooms.
If you can afford a 1080p set, get it. But I’m convinced that the difference with a 720p set is only visible with larger screens, and when sitting very close to the screen.
It is hard to find a knowledgeable, helpful sales clerk. I got lucky at Sears. This clerk convinced me to add the Panasonic plasma to my short list. One of the attractions of the plasma was its ability to represent motion with a minimum of blurring or smearing. Also there have been significant improvements in plasma technology. But I still wasn’t sold on the idea of a plasma set.
Then I went to another store which had an amazing display comparing sets with a 60hz refresh rate and a 120hz refresh rate. The sets were arranged vertically and displayed the same sweeping panoramic images. The difference in clarity was astonishing. Yet I could not justify paying the premium (several hundred dollars) for the 120hz refresh rate.
My understanding is that the plasma’s 450hz refresh rate produces a motion image equivalent in quality (some say better) to that of a 120hz LCD. After doing some more internet research, I concluded that buying this set was a no brainer.
I bought mine at Sears the next day, picked it up, took it home, and had neighbor help me lift it and set it on my TV stand. I could have saved money buying it online, but I had to have it NOW! (The price on Amazon fluctuates, but I could have saved $100 to $150.)
Attaching my SONY upconverting DVD player ($80) was very simple, as was connecting my old SD satellite box. The whole process took about an hour, and I was quickly watching my first DVD, the avian documentary Winged Migration with its jaw dropping cinematography. Watching my cats react to the bird images was amazing in itself.
I had some frustrations with screen images after my new Dish Network HD satellite box was installed. There are several “format” settings on both the TV and the satellite box: zoom, full, just, 4:3, etc. At first the images for SD TV channels were larger than the screen and of poor quality. It took me a couple of hours to begin understanding the concept of formats, to discover the “format” button on the satellite remote, and to figure out the right combination of TV and satellite box settings to get images to display correctly.
The HD channel images are extra-ordinary. The SD channel images are better than I could ever have imagined. These, in combination with the novelty of an image twice as big as my old TV is still producing a “wow” effect for me.
As I said at the beginning, you will probably be ecstatic with whatever set you buy. But you should give serious consideration to the Panasonic line of plasma TV’s.

5 Stars Best bang for your Buck
I researched flat screen TVs on CNET and Amazon before deciding on the Panasonic 42 inc 720p plasma. After a month of viewing, I am very happy w/ the picture, color, and sound. This TV is now in our family room but will eventually find a place in our master bedroom. I chose Amazon over Best Buy or Costco because the price was compeitive and included delivery. The folks who delivered the set were quick and courteous. They delivered, unpacked, installed the base, placed the set where I wanted, connected the cables, and turned the set on before leaving w/ the packing materials. The 42 inch 720p is fine for our bedroom since I don’t plan to watch dvds and the set is over 10 feet away. Our experience w/ Amazon is a positive one; I would buy my next TV from them.
5 Stars PERFECT PICTURE
THIS NEW PLASMA PANASONIC REPLACED A 1 YR OLD VIZIO LCD 32 INCH AND WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE! IM NOT GOING TO GO INTO THE SPECS OF THE PANASONIC(WHICH YOU CAN FIND EASILY BY OTHER REVIEWS AND PRODUCT DESCRIPTION), BUT I MUST SAY I LOVE THIS TV. IT HAS A MUCH BETTER, BRIGHTER, CLEARER PICTURE THAN MY VIZIO. THE SET UP WAS EASIER AS WELL…I TOOK IT OUT OF THE BOX, PUT THE STAND ON, RUN A HDMI TO MY HDTV CABLE RECORDER, PLUGGED IN TO ELECTRICAL SURGE PROTECTOR AND PRESSED THE POWER BUTTON…I DID NOT ADJUST ANY SETTINGS…AND WAS AMAZED AT THE QUALITY OF THE PICTURE. I CAN STOP WATCHING TV NOW…WHICH IS THE ONLY DRAWBACK(LOL). I RESEARCHED HDTV’S FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND ALMOST BOUGHT THE SAMSUNG, BUT THE PANASONIC HAD A BETTER PRICE. GET THIS TV AND YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY REGRETS. BTW, I HAVE OWNED IT FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS AND HAD NO PROBS AT ALL.
5 Stars Outstanding
I am not really a Plasma TV guy. I had heard bad things about them (burn in, dimming bulbs, etc.)and I already own a Samsung 40′ LCD. After viewing this TV, I can honestly say that this outperforms my Samsung……and I LOVE my Samsung. This is now in my bedroom, but I am thinking about moving this to the Living Room and putting the Samsung in my bedroom.
At 650.00, I got an absolute steal. I def. recommend this TV. After reading reviews, it seems that most people share my opinion
5 Stars First HDTV?
If you’re purchasing (or thinking about purchasing) this TV, chances are, this is your first venture into the wonderful world of HDTV’s. This was the case with me. I’ll keep it short. I got this tv for around 765, shipping included. This TV was SO worth it. I haven’t regretted the purchase for 1 moment. The black levels are deep, the colors are vibrant, and there are no false contours that I have been able to perceive. All things I was worried about before the purchase. I could not tell you the difference between a 1080 and 720 on the 42″ screen. The picture is impeccable. If you have the money and are wondering if the purchase is worth it, just know that this TV completely satisfied my needs. And if you’re new to the HDTV world, it will satisfy yours, too. (Just do it… )
