Panasonic TX-P37X10 Reviews: Viera, 37" Screen Plasma HD Ready TV

+ A lot. So easy to put together, set up and use. Great picture and it looks good too. There are so many connection points for whatever you want to plug into it - you will never run out. It "reads" my DVD recorder, so that it automatically comes on when that machine does (which I didn't think it would!). It's a lovely piece of equipment and I am very happy I bought it (tho I'm beginning to wonder if I should have got the 42" instead!)

- The sound isn't true surround sound and actually sounds like my old TV did, but it will suffice until I can afford to get a proper dedicated surround sound system. It sometimes has trouble deciphering which other piece of equipment is on (cable, DVD recorder, DVD player) and so I have to switch the AV, but that doesn't happen very often - and now I realise I'm looking for bad points!

+ Easy to set-up, simple menu screens. Excellent sound and image quality (despite not FULL 1080 HD - which unless you got a 42" or bigger model is not necessary). Having done a lot of research for a new tv, this panasonic plasma is by far the best in it's price range!

- Glossy plastic surround collects and shows up dust easily.

+ Easy set up and easy use. Good performance all round.

- I still prefer the more subtle picture of old style TVs (as in my finally defunct Sony of 17 years!) but as wide screens go, this is very good.

+ Clear picture with great colours

- No picture in picture when viewing program guide

+ Best ever Panasonic Plasma!!

- None other than prefered the shape of the older plasma screens

+ Easy automatic set up straight from the box.
Large easy to read numbers on the remote
Great picture quality

- The shiny base gets dusty almost instantly.
We have a Q Link compatible DVD recorder but nothing much seems to happen?

+ Great tv for price, good picture quality, nice design. Good connectivity. SD looks good, hd very good. Would highly recommend this tv for the price.

- Sound could be better

+ A really super tv, great picture and sound without coupling to my Panasonic in house cinema centre

- Have found non yet

+ Great picture at any angle and easy to mount on the wall. If you're looking to purchase a quality TV this model is excellent value.

+ Picture is excelent looks great even in sd, all the connectons you require

- you cant fast forward the photo viewer

+ Good picture quality
Easy initial set up

- Shiny black casing attracts dust

+ A good all round TV

- None at the moment

+ Superb picture compared to previous 1yr old Samsung plasma. (tip for sky users - choose 3d combing in the picture menu to stop that pixelated look on the sky menus)
Modern looks - all shiny and sleek

- Not really a bad point, but the sound needs a bit of messing about with via the menu until you get it right. Mine sounded a bit echoey until I got it right.

+ Very good picture quality especially hd even thought it is only hd ready. Much better than my toshiba LCD hd ready

- nothing so far except when you turn on the tv it doesn't auto select the av option to go straight to your satalite signal

+ Clear picture epecially HD sports events with good all round sound quality. No need for cinema surround system. Beautiful design, enhancs the settings

- Aerial input on rear so when fixed to wall you have to have an extension to fit sky eye

+ colours are fabulous and very good quality

- sound gets a little distorted when volume is increased

+ 1) Superb picture detail excellent for sports and films
2) Easy set up and easy to tweak settings to your likings
3) A perfect set for the average lounge

- 1) As all tv's a seperate Cinema surround system is a must Though the in built speakers a good value compared to many others

+ Easy set-up. Looks very classy. Excellent value for money for a Plasma TV.

- Sound could be a little better. Will probably purchase surround sound system.

+ Its fab!

- none

+ Picture quality is fantastic, much better than LCD TVs, also the motion tracking is superb. an excellent TV.

- Sound not the best but still very good.

+ Great make, I trust Panasonic very much, I work with plasma screens almost daily. And Panasonic are some of the best.

+ excellent picture. very user friendly

- high gloss shows dust

+ Good image quality and good sound.

- Insists on defaulting on start up to source plugged in via hdmi even though preference is set for the scart cable tv connection. Remote has far to many buttons dedicated to other panasonic products. If you don't have other Panasonic video products, the remote is far to big and complex.

+ looks nice , basic set up easy, which is good for me , sounds good , picture clear , yes i like it

- Reading the booklet thought I bought a time machine at the very least, but it makes sence evenutally, if not a techno type person who just wants a good tv.

+ Picture quality

- none

+ Just a good looking and working TV

+ I defy people to find a better TV for the money. Please ignore the fact that this is not a 1080p TV. You really will not know the difference.

- NONE!

+ This is my third Panasonic, I find it very user friendly, and the manual is very well written. Excellent picture.

- By todays standards, I can't think of any. The hard copy manual is esential compared to a CD

+ VERY GOOD BLACKS AND GOOD SOUND

- NONE

+ After extensive reseach, I found this to be the best quaity at the price. I wanted a 37" TV and found that plasma was better than LCD at this price. looks stylish and great picture.

- The sound takes a bit of tweeking to get to an acceptable quality, the side connections are on the wrong side for how I have it set up, but if thats all I can find wrong I must have no life!!!

+ Every thing

- none

+ easy to use, large screen. easy to set up, simple controls

- None to date

+ easy to use excellent picture much much better than only stye tv's

- Have not found any yet

+ Very good all round i.e picture sound and easy to use.

- none.

+ Great picture & sound .Easy to setup & use..Viera tools great for slide shows from SD camera card etc

- need a new aerial to optimise picture quality !!!

+ Although not full HD, displays a fantastic picture on Freesat HD channels and Blueray. Picture is very sharp but natural and with hardly any noticeable motion blur on fast moving pictures , football/ grand prix etc. Quality look and feel to the set and remote.

- Let down slightly by the sound quality which I expected to be more robust. This would be of no consequence with a home cinema set-up but I just dont want the clutter.
High gloss black finish looks good but attracts dust like a magnet

+ good looks, super picture, clear sound

- none to date

+ Easy to set up. Great picture quality.

+ Clear definition, and nice colour tones. When viewing HD DVD's very impressed with image quality

- Unable to view in HD television yet as do not subscribe to this.

+ Very eary to tune in

- None immediately noticeable

+ A lovely picture on standard definition sky, the onboard DVB is a bonus too.
Lots of inputs, 3 HDMIs, composite, RGB Scarts.
At 37" it is the perfect size, without going overboard.
No signs of motion blur, burn, retention even with video games

- None! It is a great set.

+ So easy to set up & use. Great looking on a stand that uses the wall mounting facility which also means more space on the top shelf of the stand. Looks bigger than 37" for some reason?

- None found as yet.

- none

- None

+ Excellent picture

- None

+ Very nice TV for the money. First plasma TV I have had, so am not sure how it compares to others, but I find the image quality really good - especially HD channels where I can see a marked improvement in clarity compared to my previous CRT. Requires no effort to set up.

- Would be nice if it had a stand that allowed you to swivel the screen a bit, but otherwise no compliaints.

- POOR SOUND

+ Very easy to connect. 5 minutes.

- None at the moment.The on/off switch could be stronger. May be it is. No problem at the moment.

+ Great picture quality, fantastic hooked up with a pana blu ray dvd player. Easy to set up. I spent a lot of time deciding with 37incher to go for, and I'm delighted with the result.

- Audio is not as good as my 4 year old sony flat screen, but everything else is miles better. Oh and it shows off dust really well.

+ Real depth of image with this plasma panny and great virtual surround sound.

- none as yet

+ Good picture quality, lots of connectivity,

- Menu system is not as good as a Sony, seems to take the long way around!!

+ picture, controls, EPG (except as below)

- sometimes doesnt want to switch on first time
no preview when using EPG

+ good looking product, easy to set up and superb HD picture. Refresh rate makes it fantastic for watching sport programmes in HD.

- none that I've found.

+ Superb picture quality

- Audio quality could be better

+ just all round fantastic tv

- none

+ Fantastic picture quality, both on an HD or SD input.

- None

+ Fantastic clear picture quality, thoroughly recommend this to anyone. Very good value for money.

- None

+ The picture is very good, sharpe and clear

- The shiny plastic surface attracts dust very quickly
The EPG would be better if you could continue to watch the TV, whilst looking at the EPG.

+ superb picture quality, ease of set up;does everything it says on the box

- none

+ Easy to set up.Looks great.Picture quality in HD is excellent what with the TV is not the full HD.

- None at the moment.

+ Menu, Easy Set up, Looks great

- Sound is a bit thin

+ Excellent design and easy set up. out of the box and set-up in less than 15 minutes. Menu's have easy navigation. Built in freeview receiver gives excellent picture quality.

- Picture through sky+ not that brilliant, but this is probably dish adjustment required and not the TV. No other bad points found at this time.

+ the symbols on the remote are nice and large, and when you press the remote buttons the response is instant

+ Good all rounder, but picture is best feature -which is what TV is all about. Glad I went for 37 not 32.

- None -yet.

+ Although the picture is not of the highest resolution, the picture quality is excellent.
Automatic set-up works extremely well.
I like the ability to watch TV and Teletext at the same time, by use of the split screen facility.
I like being able to scroll from one sub-page to the next on Teletext pages that have several sub-pages.
This television is good value for money.

- None

+ Excellent picture quality

- Sound quality is no better than OK with bass sound often muffled

+ fabulous range of colour

- sound could be better

+ Easy to set up
Looks great

- Sound can be slightly muffled and voices are not as clear as I would have hoped

+ So simple to set up; connect it and switch on, the set does the rest, finds all the channels automatically and puts them in the right order. It has updated the channel list since, too. I'm not on HD yet (looking forward to the Freeview HD rollout) but the picture seems well-nigh perfect to me as it is and it doesn't seem to matter how close you are to it either, which was one of my concerns beforehand. The build quality is excellent: solid, well-finished, it's hard to see how it could be improved. It's a Rolls-Royce of TVs.

- Coming from analogue, I find the Teletex a little clumsier, more button pressing needed, but this is a Freeview gripe, not a Panasonic problem. The remote is good, though I think the channel-change buttons should be nearer the top for more convenient one-handed use.

+ Good picture at a great price

- Remote is a bit fiddly with regards to using Sky. Needs two remotes. Previous tele worked using Sky remote

+ Best Tv on the market, easy to use,great picture,

- None

+ easy to set up and use, good facilities great black levels and viera link for other panasonic products is great.one handset for all.

- have not come across anything at the moment.

+ Great product in every aspect - superb picture quality, clear sound, easy to use, and relaxing on the eyes.

- None

+ Good looking. Easy to set up. Picture quality is excellent. The 10 out of 10 sratings I gave for every section above, speaks for itself.

- None so far!!!

+ Superb picture off-air SD and DVD via component. Improved sound. Ease of set-up and use. No motion blur and breathtakingly deep blacks. Unbeatable at this price for sports and movies.

- None.

+ Standard Def viewing is Very Good. Excellent value for money.

- Fear of burn in / image retention though no problems experienced.

+ Excellent picture quality. great product.

- Should be able to watch video clips on SD card. Unfortunately can only view stills.

- I can't think of any

+ Fast refresh, HD 1080p quality, value for money

- NA

+ Great design and excellent picture quality, very good value for money.

- none that we have become aware of as yet

+ the ease to set up the television was simplicity itself , the picture and sound quality is wonderful. the overall appearance is ultra modern in design . i would recomend this product to anyone that is looking for top technoligie at its best.
