Panasonic’s G15 Series (TC-P42G15, TC-P46G15 and TC-P50G15) plasma HDTVs provide offers excellent connectivity options with media center functionalities (integrating Internet access) all on a THX Certified display.


Panasonic VIERA G15 Plasma HDTV

A summary of notable features includes;

  • Slim Style Design
  • NeoPDP
  • 1080p FullHD Resolution
  • VIERA CAST
  • THX Certified Display
  • THX Mode
  • 24p Playback (2:3)
  • 40,000:1 Contrast Ratio (native) 2,000,000:1 (dynamic)
  • Game Mode
  • 3x HDMI

The G15 plasma HDTV models incorporate Panasonic’s new NeoPDP technology which delivers the impressive contrast ratios quoted as well as deeper blacks and doubled luminance efficiency with associated reduced power consumption (1/3 of 2007 models for the same brightness).

THX Certification indicates the G15 models have been tested and have satisfied a wide array of benchmark standards including contrast, color, de-interlacing and black levels. There is a THX Mode which optimizes the viewing experience by providing a single button calibration.

G15 models continue the HDTVs integration of further multimedia delivery services. The addition of Amazon’s VOD service on VIERA CAST allows viewers to stream video from Amazon’s extensive library.

If you like the idea of simplified connection and setup with other AV devices using a wireless network then the flagship Panasonic Z1 plasma HDTV with WirelessHD deserves consideration.

For movie fans, the Panasonic V10 plasma series with premium quality 24p movie playback and Digital Cinema Color offer the same experience as a digital cinema.
