Panasonic TC-PZT60 review

 

Let me get this out of the way first: Panasonic's TC-PZT60 is now the best-performing TV we've ever reviewed. Perhaps a few of the old, supertweaked Pioneer Kuros out there might deliver slightly superior black levels, but I've never had any of those...

The Panasonic TC-PZT60 series plasma TV can produce the best all-around picture quality available; deepest black levels in its class; highly accurate color; excellent video processing, off-angle viewing and screen uniformity; best-in-class preservation...

Exceedingly expensive; not as suited to extremely bright rooms as the Samsung F8500 plasma or LED LCD TVs; identical picture quality to the Panasonic VT60 in a dark room; consumes more power than LED LCD TVs.

For those who can afford it, the Panasonic TC-PZT60 comes closer than any TV yet to picture-quality perfection.

High expectations / high disappointment

 

We have had our panasonic tv less than 3 years when suddenly it died - no picture. We took it to a panasonic approved service store. They were told by panasonic that the problem was the power supply. The 'fix' to the power supply did not repair the TV....

Great picture, smart tv

Didn't last

"The Current Industry Standard In Picture Quality"

 

As a consumer who actually bought the ZT60, I think I can put a few things into perspective. Back in '09 I saw a demo of a 50" Pioneer Kuro plasma (the industry reference for black level quality until now) at a store with the lights switched off. Yes,...

Unrivaled picture quality

Expensive

Unrivaled picture quality Extremely accurate colors/color temperature in the THX mode/EBU modes right out of the box Beats The Pioneer Kuros black level and gray scale reproduction Low screen glare/reflectivity compared to all other plasmas to date

Expensive No S-video input to make the most of S-VHS sources; composite video input rolls off high-end and makes SD sources appear duller than they are

"THE BEST IN BEST PRICE ."

 

You have got to buy this TV as it is the best. Hope Panasonic does not get out of the plasma business. I am surprised that CNET it a 5 star rating

Black level, contrast, color saturation & accuracy, smart features

None, cannot find any fault.

Jaw-dropping image quality.

 

This wasn't my first choice when I went to my local AV store for a new HDTV. I originally went in to purchans a Samsung 65" UNF8000. This set wasn't even my 2nd choice. After looking around a bit I found last years Sony XBR-65HX950 on clearance for...

Picture quality is incredible. Love the svelte aesthetics and fit/finish of the set.

Sound output is weak but that can be remedied.

Best picture quality ever!

 

I've logged over 250 hours on this unit. The ZT60 works as a TV should work while providing the best picture quality of any TV to date. It's easy to operate & has more features (apps) than I'll ever use. If you can afford it & you don't have a super...

Black level, contrast, color saturation & accuracy, smart features

Fan noise may bother some in given settings, price, may be too dim for rooms with uncontrolled light, ARC is buggy.

"My New Panny TC-P65ZT60 Review"

 

My primary concern with a TV is first and foremost picture quality (PQ). For my intended use, apps, peripherals, features, etc. are all secondary to PQ. The ZT60 has the best PQ of any TV I've ever seen. All the key features of PQ--color accuracy,...
