Panasonic VIERA TC-P50GT25
$2,200.00
Released August, 2010
The Pros:Great picture quality - stark contrast with deep, dark blacks. Lots of brightness - no need to change modes when watching content in a bright room. Great 3D support - one of the best options out there for three dimensional content.
The Cons:Lacks a decent variety of Internet streaming apps. Has trouble with 24p content - probably a deal breaker for film buffs. Uses an expensive, proprietary USB Wi-Fi adapter.
The Panasonic VIERA TC-P50GT25 is a 50”, 1080p 3D plasma HDTV that uses Frame Sequential technology to reproduce left-eye and right-eye 3D images. It’s the top unit in the August 2010 VIERA 3D series, as it offers the largest size, though maintains the same 5M:1 contrast ratio, full support for 3D video content, and integrated audio system.

It’s especially been praised for its black-level performance, its enhanced color saturation, and its lower power consumption versus previous 1080p models. However, it has difficulty handling 1080/24p sources (despite its claim for otherwise), and there are fewer streaming services and apps (VIERA CAST) versus competitor models.
