Excellent TV for the money....
 
My current TV was a Toshiba DLP, which was going through $170.00 bulbs once a year ! So i went looking for a new lcd or plasma. First, i don't see how anyone will be very impressed with the standard picture setting ? It's a dingy, dull screen. However on "Cinema" or "Custom" setup, this picture is night and day brighter and more colorful. Maybe too much so. But at these settings, this tv easily rivals anything out there.

Here are CNET's calibrated settings, which i was'nt impressed wi...

Great Buy
 
The value you get for the price of this tv is second to none. I just recently put this tv in my house replacing an old rear projection tv and i am amazed at its color accuracy. I did find my self making a few tweeks from the factory settings but once you get it to where you like the picture you'll fall in love. Sports and movies shine on this set. I preferred the plasma over the lcd because the movement on the tv was much more natural than the 120hz lcd displays. I sell T.V.s at sears and after ...

For most people, this set represents the best value for money of any 50" class HDTV
 
I decided on the P50S1 after about 250 hours of daily HDTV research for the past 3 or 4 months, in which I debated everything from plasma vs. LCD to screen size to features to ease of use to durability.

The 2009 Panasonic plasmas use the new "Neo-PDP" panels, which I can tell you personally having lifted both are much lighter than an equal size 2008 model plasma. The manual prudently warns against a single person lifting the set, but I did so myself with no problem.

This mo...

AMAZING!
 
This tv is great! I have been researching tvs for over a year to find the right one. I read all of the professional reviews (cnet) and this is the tv that I decided on. I was on a budget, I am a college student who does a lot of gaming and blu-ray watching. I am extremely picky about picture quality and this tv delivers an amazing picture! This blows nearly all LCD tv's out of the water. I was not going to get a plasma to begin with because of the supposed "image retention" which I have yet to n...

Not a 5 star TV ...Easy Tigers
 
I have had a plasma since before it became so affordable, my first TV was a Pioneer Elite, which is now 3 years old. I bought the 50" Panny as a basement TV, I am satisfied with it, and unless there is a way to tweak the colors on it satisfied is about all I will ever be with it. It's not as great as a 5 star review would have you believe. The TV has virutually no adjustability of the picture, no gamma, no greyscale which stinks because the factory settings aren't natural looking, too green and ...

Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Good price and service. Great picture.

Cons: Speakers on this set face down. I have to have sound all the way up to hear content on some channels. Panasonic sent a repair tech to analyze the problem and he recommended taping cardboard to the back of this brand new set to redirect the sound waves. My other option was a sound bar or home t...

Second TV arrived with shattered screen
 
Tech Level: high
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: None.

Cons: This is the second plasma tv to arrive with a shattered screen. Something is wrong with the delivery chain. I just hope I can get a complete refund this time and go pickup one at the local TV store.

Arrived with screen shattered
 
Tech Level: high
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: So far, none except Newegg agreed to resend a replacement TV.

Cons: Main con is the thing arrived broken, so somewhere on this delivery chain from the factory, someone goofed.

First plasma - highly impressed
 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) I've been using the S1 for almost a month now and absolutely love it. It has a beautiful, realistic picture that is perfect for video gaming and Blurays. It may not have quite the 'pop' of an LCD, but I much prefer the look of a plasma with it's improved accuracy and uniform picture. I'm coming from a 34" Sony XBR970 - which itself is a very accurate set - but this Panasonic has made me a...

GREAT SET
 
I received my Panasonic VIERA S1 p50I plasma 3 days ago. I now have it hooked up. I was VERY nervous about making this purchase. Very expensive and on-line ordering. ALL my fears were for nothing. This is a FANTASTIC set and it arrived from 6ave in great condition & on the FIRST day promised. I was impressed.
The picture quality is amazing. I did a LOT of research before purchasing this set. I read reviews, I talked to others that had a Panasonic, I even went to "Best Buy" (terrible experi...
