Honestly - Wow !!

I am beginning this year owner of this TV.
I informed myself, rolled customer reviews about 4 months, followed Test
and allow the models to show off in stores.
In terms of size models are 42-47 inches in question.
I sit about 3 feet away far and the LG fits with its dimensions to the nearest millimeter
exactly IKEA in my phono wall;)

My old Television: tube, 82cm, 100Hz, Panasonic (Quintrix CRT) -> that was then, after the lion, a real reference)

These models I had in mind:
Panasonic TX-P42GT50E
Sony KDL-46HX755
LG 47LM860V
Panasonic TX-L47ETW50
Philips 46PFL8007K
Philips 47PFL6907K
LG 47LM960V
Philips 46PFL8606K
Philips 47PFL7606K

Why not Samsung ?!
Samsung does not come into my house! Several bad experience with the support!
Support there is actually not at Samsung! Phone Gege location is the name! No more than that!
Gone! Over and out! No more Samsung! No cell phone, tablet, TV, nothing! No more !!

Basically the question: Plasma or LED
Because I was never really sure.
However, the bottom line is only the plasma from Panasonic was the one who, who will make me happy.
Why do I want to tell you times.

The following points were important to me:
Design, power consumption, brightness, technology, refresh rate, 3D technology with polarized glasses, features and ease of use.

Style:
The TV, which I have in the living room should not be winners of the "Golden Pineapple" as far as possible.
For the money he should already look presentable.

Power consumption:
Bugbear. Plasma are electricity guzzlers, LEDs consume much less.
Honestly, for me, this discussion utter nonsense.
1. The difference is no longer so huge and
2. the person who is upset about this, must not bathe in hot future, invite his smartphone every other day,
let alone leave the power supply permanently attached to the socket, let his PC for Media services are running constantly,
let the Router permanently, have a laptop and a tablet and so on.
Why you argue constantly about this issue is: Because it's easy! No more and no less.
In truth comes the not at all to wear properly.
Prefer really save energy, then certainly not on television!
That's almost like when McDoof 2 Big Mac to order and a Diet Coke.
Incidentally, have plasma, today not even fan!

But in the end it must always know yourself. I find this discussion anyway annoying.

Brightness:
Plasma is too dark, LED colorful and alive.
Set times your Panasonic plasma brightroom on THX. Thus, an image must be!
Of course, bright and colorful! And not an exaggeration!

Technology:
I do not care if I can tweet during the football, browsing or the like on the Internet.
But with today's amenities, I would like, I have fast switching times, the
Software runs smoothly, never gets stuck and I do not have to constantly wait on my TV,
until it is even finished with its processes.
Here the Philips falls already out!
Incredibly beautiful picture and great features. But when you switch allows you to display during which a
Get coffee.
Very important !: saved favorites will not be deleted for a new channel scan!
Unfortunately, this is a problem in very many manufacturers.
When Panasonic no problem!

Refresh rate / speed:
I very often Kucke Sport. Soccer, tennis, baseball, etc. And like liquid!
LED TV's have caught up considerably. At the store, the difference is strangely never so
huge compared to a plasma. But whatever it is, the plasma TV comically
will never even really offered and is always very bad set. Maybe just my impression!
Then you're times when friends and guests can send you a picture in HD, SD, DVD and Blueray.
Result ahead: The plasma wins!
In football / tennis ball is not the line but remains a ball.
Movements are smooth!
Stairs effects do not exist!
At this point I would like to say that I have no 1300 - issue euro for technology
want, which is worse than my old tube TV!

3D technology If anything, least of all with polarized glasses:
which are cheaper, lighter and I saw in the store as not really make a difference to the shutter technique.
Have looked at the multiple at Saturn in the LG-corner and was flabbergasted!
But how often do you kuckst 3D? And that's really important?
But somehow I do not want to even with so huge and heavy welding goggles in the living room
sitting in front of my TV and be happy after 2 hours on neck pain)
The alternative: 3D shutter glasses of Samsung. 2 pieces = 35, - and they are also easy.
Work fine with Panasonic!
A compromise!

Features:
What does a TV can?
Representing television images!
WiFi makes sense, because you'll save the rumstecken or blödlerei with USB sticks.
Multiple tuners are installed eh yes today and the whole gimmick with Internet, etc. Today
Also standard.
A good media player is practical and multicard reader also.

Ease of use / Userbility:
- Simple set-up -> Not everyone is computer or the like
- Easy integration in network
- Automatic recognition of connected peripherals - to have> not constantly rumsuchen menu
- Easy editing of Favorites
- Attached USB hard drives, which are displaced when not in use in the quiescent current mode to not constantly
to be claimed
- Fast and stable software
- Light menu (no eternal nesting of sub-items or the like)

The image quality has me finally move to the plasma.
The compromise with the shutter technique can I endure.
The Philipps were useless.
The Sony 755 is better than the 855 but
as the LG also very expensive.

Anyone who has had a good tube, can not ignore the plasma.
It outputs a heathen money and it can be expected a bit.
The Panasonic is a top TV with Plus the super image quality.

- Set up quickly
- Nice and light menu
- Fast WLAN
- All work right away
- Connections without end
- Good media player
- Vierra Link is great
Having to play around with short initial start-up without much prior experience or great menu -
- Fast switching times (a HD receiver is the internal CI + module always preferable.
the switching times with the CI + module is approximately twice as long as like a receiver.
But that is true everywhere and is located on the double decryption)
- Good technique (multi-core processors)
- Nice TV
- Cheaper than the LED competition
- Reflective front is not an issue (window left and opposite, and lamp to its left).

The Panasonic is a real buy recommendation!
Watch it quietly once. Even if it is you do not like shown in the store)

With chip, for example, plasma TV's dive hardly on with the tests / leaderboards. Also funny.
But oh well!
