Panasonic VIERA X1 LCD Series

The X1 LCD Series is Panasonic's entry level line of LCD TVs introduced in 2009, offering a 720p native resolution and a similar IPS panel that's used in the flagship G1 Series. While sacrificing image quality in the move to a lower resolution and contrast ratio, Panasonic attempts to increase the value of the X1 line with the optional iPod Entertainment Kit. The kit allows you to connect an iPod to the TV and control and play the media stored within, including videos. The step-up S1 LCD Series sees an upgrade to a full HD 1080p native resolution, and a slightly higher contrast ratio. Other aspects such as the Game Mode picture setting, and integrated image viewer remain shared.
