Safdar, Multi-purpose viewer

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: The Panasonic TX-L47E5B is, on the whole, a likeable TV that offers decent value for money. It's got good online features and delivers pleasing pictures with rich colours and good contrast. However, audio quality and black level performance could be better.
Bad points:: Reviewer left no comment

Roy, Ilminster Multi-purpose viewer

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: This TV represents excellent value for money, it is easy to use and has a great picture.
Bad points:: Only downside was sound quality, an issue with many mopdern flat screen TVs. We bought a Panasonic soundbar which has given a sound quality to match the HD picture.
