    DO NOT BUY THIS TV!!!!!
    1
    Posted by: from Oakdale MN on 04/03/2013We bought this TV around 15 months ago and it died already. We paid Best Buy Geek squad a nice $150 to tell us that - adding insult to injury. In addition, when it did work for the brief 1 month period, I thought the picture quality was just ok. Our Sony LED TV has much better picture quality - and it still works after 4 years!

    Busted after 18 months
    1
    Posted by: from Colorado on 04/03/2013Bought the Viera Panasonic 50" Plasma and after 17 months it went into a shut down mode after 5 minutes. This seems to be a severe problem with this product after looking at repairs ($ 600.00) plus the $ 140.00 service call, the technician said it would be best to buy a new one. This $ 1,500 purchase was a bust.

    Terrible TV
    1
    Posted by: from on 03/31/2013Do not buy this tv. It has a defect that Panasonic will not fix. There are many web sites set up for this problem trying to get Panasonic to fix the issue. I am one of the lucky ones with my tv breaking after 4 years. After owning a plasma tv I will not buy one again. Although great picture, the tv gets extremely hot and the entire room is hot. If you set it on energy save the screen doesn't look as good, so what's the point? I am now trying to decide if I fix this tv or buy a new one. After reading about the problem, it seems cheaper to get a new tv. What a waist of money.

    Great plasma so far
    5
    Posted by: from on 03/21/2013First I bought an LG 55 inch led an was at first impressed, after a few days I could tell the volume would thunk really loud if the volume was up some what high, I was very upset, brought it back an went back to plasma. I have had a Panasonic plasma for 3 years before that an same with my dad. I love them, built with quality an durable unlike some LEDs I see, could be the flat panel, but to me I want a little thickness not real thin. The sound is good an i love the picture. The glare can be a hassle at times but good as long as you don't sit directly behind something bright. I love the black levels an brightness is very nice looking. LEDs do look brighter but with the dark levels being almost foggy I think plasma is the way to go. The tv itself looks good, has a nice controller, an the Internet option is just nice to have even though I have an Xbox. The Netflix is all I have used but seem to work well, and Also has a media center for pictures an video. In all I think it looks great an love the silver lines on top an bottom. I haven't got the hd reciever yet as its in the mail but even standard def. looks somewhat decent but hd definitely makes it a lot better as I can tell watching movies on my Xbox. In all had it a week an is very impressed and haven't noticed anything yet besides a glare if directly behind a light.

    Posted by: from on 03/16/2013I have had tv for at least a year. I was surprised to see it for sale still,aa I purchased it. I am still as happy now as when I set it up. Plasma is heavier by far but the quality for the money is definitely there with this set. It has all the smart tv options and connects automatically to other Verria devices (aka Sony blue ray)

    Great value for the price
    5
    Posted by: from Thousand Oaks CA on 03/13/2013I originally purchased a LG TV which after just 4 weeks of usage was totally unhappy with. I went back to BestBuy and spoke with the store manager who took back the TV .He just wanted nothing more then for me to be a satisfied customer .With refund in hand I proceeded to look for another TV. The sales person I met was extremely knowledgeable and helped me find the right TV in my budget. This TV picture quality is so good I can't see why anyone would spend more .The colors are accurate ,black levels are strong and the features work for me. BestBuy had the best price including on line pricing. I suggest if your in the market for a 50" or larger TV you take a look at this TV.

    Great Picture Quality

    Posted by: from Charlotte, NC on 03/13/2013For the price you will not find a better TV! Picture quality is a small step above last years 50 series which was already impressive. If you want a bare bones Plasma that has great pic quality without the bells and whistles then this is the TV for you..
