Quick review

The good
Plasma tech, "single pane" styling, kind to Freeview and DVD, depth to high-def images, easy to use
The bad
No Full HD resolution, some jagged edges, some image retention
Verdict
Brilliantly designed and versatile, the smallest plasma TV around proves a lounge-friendly bargain

  • I got one of these about a month ago. I've been putting it through it's paces. It is very stylish and easy to use and also you can set virtually any picture mode to *each* HDMI input. So you can set cinema mode for one and adjust the colour and sharpness for another and it will remember the settings for each input you select.

    I too found that there was a bit of image burn - but, if the picture changes this will disappear as the system refreshes the pixels.

    Some whites on standard TV/DVD did seem a bit washed out and some facial skin tones were a tad ill-defined.

    Dark and rich colours are great - blacks are black and you can see depth in the image.

    I now have a Philips upscaling DVD and have also gone for Virgin V+ box and the images are truly wonderful now. Whites and facial skin tones are good. There is some colour banding on images - but this could be due to the original camera suffering from artefacts. I even get the banding on my old Sony 20" Trinitron which has an excellent pic.

    OK, so it's only a 720p - but that isn't a real problem as I have no intention of getting a BluRay box and indeed HD TV is still only at 720p.

    I can also hook up my Apple MAC mini which *really* comes into it's own. You can sit back and surf the net from your armchair. iTunes comes to life with its visualiser and also the o/s screen saver with your photo albums looks great.

    Would recommend this TV!
