Panasonic TH-42PX60U
Panasonic, a leader in plasma TV sales in the United States won its popularity through a combination of solid performance and aggressive pricing. The 42-inch Panasonic TH-42PX60U ($ 2,500 list), the most popular size of model in the company less expensive 2006 line of plasma TVs from consumers, seems destined to do the same this year. Compared with 2005-TH PX50U series, Panasonic dropped the list price of its 42-incher for $ 300, made slightly more compact, given the possibility to adjust the aspect ratio with HD sources, and dropped the card slot of the cable for a second HDMI input - all changes you want to applaud. In terms of image quality, has not changed much: the TH-42PX60U does many things well, although not exactly equal to the industrial 42-inch cousin, the TH-42PHD8UK. Still produces images that are demonstrably higher than most 42-inch plasmas - both brand names and otherwise - and this at a relatively affordable price.It appears that the two tone look has taken over popular plasma design. The Panasonic TH-42PX60U has a black frame around the screen, while the rest of his cabinet and the table stand, is finished silver. Left and right stereo speakers are located below the screen, keeping the overall width to a minimum, and the grilles are cleverly disguised way I barely notice it. In general, the TH-42PX60U does not stand outside compared to other plasmas we've seen - CNET few employees who saw the show thought it was too soft, while others did not mind the minimalist look, but most agree that much silver was below the screen.
We appreciate that Panasonic shaved 1.5 inches of total width of television compared to last year's model. The TH-42PX60U measures 40.2 by 30.3 by 12.7 inches (WHD) atop of your foot, and the group itself is 3.8 inches deep.
The remote is logically laid out and easy to use, with large keys compared with previous designs Panasonic remote. Unfortunately, it is backlit for use in all in a dark room, but will control DVD players and cable boxes. The internal menu system or GUI (Graphical User Interface) is a new design that looks more like industrial design model. It seemed logical and intuitive navigate.As with almost all high-resolution - as opposed to HDTV - plasmas available these days, the Panasonic TH-42PX60U has a native resolution of 1,024 x 768 pixels. Although this is not enough to display every pixel of HDTV sources, is not reflected in this size can make claim. The set can accept and display HDTV, DVD and standard TV sources, but has no dedicated PC input - adventurous though users can probably get to show through computer fonts HDMI.
Do not call the Panasonic TX-a rich feature set by any means, but has a few worth mentioning. As for comfort, no picture in picture, but offers a SD card slot for viewing digital photos. It includes an ATSC tuner, but ends with the cable card slot is in last year's models - no great loss if you're okay with a cable box.
