Panasonic TC-P50U50

The TC-P50U50 is a budget plasma from Panasonic. It is, in a way, a spiritual successor to 2009's U1 series, albeit a modern, improved version. The U50 series is also the only series in 2012 to support neither internet access or 3D viewing. It is the...

Panasonic TC-P50U50

Panasonic's entry-level plasma is a strong core performer that really couldn't be much simpler.

The Panasonic P50U50 is an excellent, no-frills plasma TV.

Panasonic TC-P50U50

Buyers looking for a new HDTV who don't want to spend a ton of money may want to check out the Panasonic TC-P50U50 50" plasma TV. It offers fabulous image quality, deep black levels and an SD card slot. It does lack things like 3D and Internet-enabled...

On Sale TV

I usually love new egg...but this "see price at checkout" is getting kinda rough. On this tv I went all the way to the credit card screen and still no price. Going to get in the car and go to town and pick one up today. I'm through with price in cart...

Panasonic Viera TV's are great. I have two Plasma tv's already and they both are working great.

Jim

I was skeptical of this set at first, when viewed in-store, it seemed dull and dim compared to the much brighter LCD's on display. Those employees, like a couple reviewers here, just have no idea how to properly set it up. Crank up the brightness and...
