Panasonic TC-P55ST50 review
CNET -
The good: The affordable Panasonic TC-PST50 series exhibited outstanding overall picture quality, characterized by exceedingly deep black levels with great shadow detail, accurate colors, and solid bright-room performance. Unlike LCDs, as a plasma it has superb off-angle and
uniformity characteristics. The styling is attractive and the feature set well-chosen, including excellent onscreen help options.
The bad: The
ST50 uses more power than competing LCD TVs, and doesn't perform as
well in bright rooms as those with matte screens. It doesn't come with
3D glasses, and it showed more crosstalk in 3D than some competing TVs.
The ST50 is only available in 50-inch and larger sizes. Three HDMI
inputs is one fewer than most midrange TVs offer.
The bottom line: With
flagship-level picture quality for a midlevel price, the Panasonic ST50
series sets the value standard among videophile-grade TVs.
