Panasonic VIERA TH-50PZ85U, TH-46PZ85U, TH-42PZ85U Plasma 1080p Full HD TV Review

The Panasonic PZ85U VIERA models 1080p Full HD plasma (TH-50PZ80U, TH-46PZ80U and TH-42PZ80U) have the same specification and the recently reviewed Panasonic VIERA PX80U models except for the following differences;

Resources

Other 2008 Panasonic plasma models to consider….


Moving up to the Panasonic PZ800U models you gain a swivel base, THX Certification, 24p Cinematic Playback, BBE VIVI HD3D Sound, a HDMI input, increased shades of gradation and the one sheet of glass design.

If like the idea of also adding VIERA Cast IPTV Capability, Studio Reference Mode, Pro Setting Menu, RS-232C conncetion, AVCHD/MPEG2 playback, H.264 codec and Digital Cinema Color while missing out on THX Certification then you should look at the Panasonic PZ850U models.

Alternatively, dropping back to 20,000:1 (from 30,000:1) contrast ratio and not have the PC input gives you the Panasonic PZ80U plasma models.

If a still well featured base model plasma with 720p resolution and 15,000:1 contrast ratio will fill your needs then the PX80U models are for you.

See the base specification for all 2008 Panasonic plasma models below.

Compare the specifications of the PZ850U, PZ800U, PZ85U, PZ80U and PX80U side-by-side.
