Here's my opinion:
Image
I think I need not describe great that the image quality is outstanding. HD material looks stunning, DVDs are also good. Watching movies will really amaze you. But what has surprised me: Even analog TV is impressive and looks a lot better than on my old LG. Otherwise I use DVB-C, which is of course again a bit better. Very nice too: the public HD channels.
For me also the built-IPS panel was a reason to buy the Panasonic D25E. The IPS panel allows maximum viewing angle. That no matter how you look at an angle to the TV, the colors remain the same intensity, the image does not lose its contrast. However, a disadvantage of this panel is a poorer black level. That will in turn offset by the LED backlight, which I would personally call the black level as well (for an LCD). But there are certainly LCDs with better black levels.
Clouding (flashlight effect)
So I can see very slight clouding at my television. That's my opinion on the design due to the Edge LED backlight and no better. For those who do not know what Clouding is: When you see a black screen on the TV light brighter spots (clouds), which covers the screen, such as is achieved with a plasma TV not even black.
BUT: Daytime Clouding is not to notice only when one night sitting in a completely darkened room, you can see this effect in a completely black screen. Me personally does not bother, especially when my TV only at the top of the black is not quite as dark just like the rest of the screen. But the need to know if he can live with it, or not any himself.
Clay
For an LCD with a very flat construction amazingly well. For me perfectly adequate and again no comparison to my old LCD TVs.
Input lag
Since I use especially gamble for PS3 my TV, I have long researched to find a TV that has an acceptable input lag on the Internet. Here is a brief explanation: Input lag refers to the delay with which constitutes a television to output the console. So if I, for example, press for a beat-em-up on hitting, it takes so many milliseconds, until the TV displays the blow also. The play can be a problem, because other players are simply faster, especially when online. The Panasonic D25E has an input lag of 30-35ms (Source: various test sites on the Internet). That is not the best value, but is in my opinion still in the acceptable range. From 35ms it is for online games slow critical.
The Panasonic D25E is here one of the only LCDs with LED backlight, which have a largely good input lag. First wanted a TV from Samsung or Philips, but all of which have an input lag> 100ms.
Equipment
The decor is neat. DVB-T, C and S receiver, USB, HDD recording, Internet, because no wishes remain unsatisfied. Where I find that the included Internet function is nothing more than a nice gimmick. On the Internet I'm still on the laptop. Even so I associate prefer the laptop via HDMI to your TV and go to the Internet, be sure to check or to movies, which is why I do not really use the USB port.
Conclusion
I can express my full recommendation to the Panasonic D25E definitely. For me, this is the currently best LCD TV with LED backlight, which is on the market. Of course, he is not perfect and has its shortcomings (Clouding, black level). Only I think that both of no importance: Clouding is scarcely perceptible and ok, the black level is not the best, but now also not bad. On the other hand the positive aspects: Excellent image quality with HD material, great colors, great sharpness, good sound, acceptable input lag, outstanding viewing angles (thanks to IPS panel), compelling features and naturally beautiful, nice and flat.
