5.0 out of 5 stars Top Price-Performer… A Great Buy, April 16, 2009
By R. Barnett (Mobile, Alabama USA)
Purchased for our master bedroom, the Panasonic TC-P50X1 50″ 720p has true brilliant color, impressive blacks, great resolution (looks like a 1080p to me and I am a picky engineer), surprisingly good sound and great looks. It sports the lowest price per square inch of screen area and beats LCDs hands down with its 600Hz refresh rate (absolutely no motion blur) and looks the same no matter where you are in the room. After considerable research, the TC-P50X1 was the clear choice due to its price, performance and appearance. A super buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars ++++great value, even better picture++++, April 20, 2009
By E. Purchaser (New Jersey)
I’ll sum this up in two words, amazing picture! I bought this tv to replace a 37″ Sharp Aquos LCD and it’s been the best electronics choice I’ve made in a long time! I really enjoy this tv to date, which has a strong contrast ratio 30,000:1, which just dwarfed my older LCD that had only 1,200:1, I won’t even discuss the refresh rate (but actually was not an issue on the Sharp). Furthermore the value per inch is really unparalled given the quality of this tv. Having done my homework, a 1080p is really a marketing gimick that is not discernable to the average home viewer and furthermore inflates the costs significant, so with little content available or going to be abailable anytime soon in this format why waste your money? It’s not as though 1080p content won’t display at all! Panasonic got it right with this tv and furthermore the weight is surprisingly managable given the fact that Plasmas were always considered heavier and bulkier than LCDs. I’ve yet to play Nintendo Wii on this tv but I’m sure that Tiger woods golf will be a lot of fun. The only complaint that is that I have an HD feed from Direct TV (yes, I use HDMI and didn’t pay $50 bucks for a cable, paid far less on eBay). The remote code 10250, plus the second 960 code doesn’t allow for changing inputs with the universal Directv remote (that’s no fault of Panasonic). If someone knows the workaround please post!!
