Panasonic TX-P42G10 Reviews: Viera, 42" Screen Plasma Full HD 1080p TV

+ Stunning picture quality with very natural colour. HD is fabulous, its like looking out of your window so pure is the picture. Remote control is easy to use with good clear markings on the buttons. Good looking TV although I would have preferred silver surrounds as this blends into the room easier.

- There are no bad points but a touch more "presence" in the sound and could we have a choice of colour i.e. Black or Silver.

+ Excellent image quality of this set. The advertised "infinite blacks" may not be realistically possible but I've not seen many other televisions come this close. Plug in a blu-ray player and this television comes to life and produces outstanding image that pops vibrant and luscious colour. Excellent motion that leaves LCD/LED TV's in the starting blocks. Brilliant user friendly remote with large buttons. Standard definition images are handled very well producing a better viewing experience than many other large sized TV's handicapped by poor image sources. Freesat and Freeview tuners are both quick and provide a decent image quality. Freesat HD channels allow the tv to stretch it's legs producing a very strong image quality.

- This TV is not cheap with many other 42" 1080p models available for less however none that meet the spec of the G10. 3rd HDMI input is on the side which may annoy some. Higher energy consumption than LCD's

+ Looks fab, easy to set up. Great picture quality & sound quality. I had been told we may not really notice the difference between normal & HD but the difference is clear HD is perfect shame all programmes are not transmitted in HD.

- Not sure this would be best choice for viewing in brightly lit rooms.

+ As a bit of a technochump, I found this very easy to install. The picture quality is as good as I've sen anywhere. Sounds pretty good too, although I haven't really got anything to compare with here. Still makes me feel good when I walk into the lounge! Football and wildlife on HD is very impressive.

- Not really a bad point about the telly, but the viewing experience. The picture quality is so good, it shows up every imperfection in the signal, so if you've been watching Freesat HD, then switch to DVB you have to get used to the deterioration.

+ Very good picture through standard sky set up. Freesat is easy to set up yourself but only has one HD channel(BBC HD). Awesome for gaming and watching films.

- The sound only has 2 channels to choose from - music or speech - could have had pre-sets for cinema. some times when watching films the music seems a lot louder than the talking.

+ The image is far superior to the Panasonic LCD I replaced. The colours and sharpness are far superior.

- Slight problem with writing scrolling across the bottom of the screen on certain channels, whereby the words don't appear as sharp as they should.

+ Excellent picture. Loads of extras, freesat, freeview etc. Great value for money.
To see what this TV can really do get sky HD, it'll blow your socks off!

+ Before purchase I done some research on all plasms TV's, and must say that Panasonic gave me personally the best value for money. I have not been disapointed in any way, and still finding out what else what I got for value.

- As yet have found none

+ Sport at a fast pace is emmense. Tv does'nt take centre of place in the room due to a very clean, none intrusive design.

- Very minor - no HD cable came with the tele.

+ My Panasonic television far exceeded my expectations in every aspect but in particular the dynamic contrast ratio of 40000:1 gives a picture of outstanding quality that I consider is equal to those obtained on HD through my satellite dish.

- None
