Panasonic TC-L47ET5

The Panasonic ET5 series offers integrated Wi-Fi and passive 3D with included glasses in an affordable LED HDTV, but its picture isn't quite up to snuff unless you look at the screen straight on.

Inexpensive. Built-in Wi-Fi. Bright picture. Comes with 4 pairs of 3D glasses.

Weak off-angle viewing including heavy crosstalk. Disappointing shadow detail.

The Panasonic TC-L42ET5 is an inexpensive 3D HDTV with a good picture if you look at it straight on. While its passive 3D technology is convenient and economical with the included glasses, it suffers from distinct crosstalk and poor viewing angles....

Unbelievable picture

Did a lot of research before buying this television and am very pleased with it. I bought the combo deal with the 3D blue ray player and for less than $900 you couldn't beat the price.The picture quality is amazing! Even when watching a regular DVD...

Seems to be a nice value product

Let's say it like it is, for under $1,000 including shipping I got this TV and the Blu Ray player along with it, that's a pretty good deal. Internet, 3D, HD, phone app, how can you go wrong with this price. No, it's not the absolute nicest TV you can...

Not for SD viewing

Poor SD display, you MUST have HD service or you'll be very disappointed. Aspect options (4) are limited and inadequate for me. Sharing 1 input for Component and Composite via a special included adapter highly limits the non-HD inputs like a DVD...

This Panasonic is Boss!

This TV has exceeded my expectations on many levels. I have years of experience building computers and researching the advancement of audio visual technology. This set is a tight package full of valuable features. Speakers are fine, but who cares. Thin...

This TV has exceeded my expectations in many ways! I wanted smart functionality for streaming services and a range video format support. Amaz on Prime, Hulu Plus, Netflix, Youtube, are all present out of the box! Ethernet connected, streaming in HD has...

Only con I can come up with is that the smart feature user interface is a bit dated. You are presented with a grid of nine boxes. Each box is an app of your choosing. Its really not that bad, but I have seen better interfaces
