Panasonic TC-P65S1 VIERA HDTV: Main Specs and Features

I cannot count how many times a member of my family has asked me what brand of TV they should get. I first ask them what is their budget, and second if they want LCD or Plasma? Let us say that they choose a top brand and Plasma, then I would suggest they look at the Panasonic TC-P65S1 VIERA HDTV.

Yes I know what you are thinking, the TV is getting on a bit now, but that’s the good thing about Panasonic, you can wait 6 moths for their price to come down — and the features are still better than many of the other brands out there that are just coming on the market.

This 1080p Full HD TV offers 2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and a 600Hz refresh rate, great if you want to watch that tennis ball as it flies through the air. As with all plasma TVs, you get superb black levels — ideal if you love watching movies like Star Wars.

Looking at a few user reviews from Best Buy, it seems that some consumers have an issue with the amount of power that the Panasonic TC-P65S1 consumes compared to an LCD equivalent. However, superb image quality more than makes up for it.

Some of the specs include: ENERGY STAR qualified, 3 HDMI inputs, VIERA Image Viewer, 40,000:1 native contrast ratio, 20W 2-speaker system, and much more. For more details visit Best Buy.
