Panasonic Plasma TV's are junk, don't buy
Panasonic 50 inch Plasma - Complaint

CANTON, OHIO -- Panasonic 50 inch plasma lasted just short of 3 years. These are supposed to last 20,000 hours, what a bunch of crap. Called Panasonic and they sent out a tech to look at the TV. Says it needs several boards replaced and that this is a common problem. Estimate to fix is $625.00. Panasonic knows there's a problem with these but refuses to address the issue or help their customers. Don't buy another Panasonic TV until they get the message that they cannot put out crap and think they can get away with it.

Don't buy plasma. They have problems and they consume a lot of electricity. Better off with an LCD or LED. Less problems and less power.

I have both Plasma and LCD TV's. My plasma is an early model, it's about 10 years old and is still going strong, my LCDs are newer, one is about 3 years old and the other is about a year old (all Samsungs, and I haven't had a single issue with any of them. I'd actually like to replace the plasma it's it's my main TV, it's a 42 incher but only 720p, with something larger and with 1080p res, but the thing simply won't die, and I can't justify tossing out a working TV. Anyway, I've always heard an seen that Panasonic makes a good plasma TV though, sorry to hear about your problem.
