Ever heard of a 42” magnificence in the form of a TV? If not, then you have to see the Samsung PS-42P4 Plasma TV performance, for knowing what it means when I say magnificence! With sparkling clarity and razor sharp images produced, the ecstasy of TV viewing is understood better in this TV.
An aspect ratio of 16:9, and resolution of a wonderful 1024 x 1024, the brightness peak for this TV comes to 1100cd/m2 with the contrast ratio coming to 1000:1. The viewing angle is 160 degree, which is a bit disappointing, compared to the size of the screen and similar models from Philips and other leading companies in the market giving higher viewing angles of about 176-178 degrees. The progressive scan option reduces the flickers produced in the TV, thus giving cleaner and distortion free images.
A Picture in Picture mode helps in watching two or more channels in a single screen, thus optimising the use of the wide screen. An audio output of 15W each comes with each speaker, a total of 2, along with a Virtual Dolby Sound decoder and SRS TruSurround sound options also are available. Preset sound modes like Music, Floor, Cinema, Standard, personal etc are set previously itself in the TV.
The TV also has a PC input that helps in viewing, multimedia and other contents in a PC, in the wide screen of the TV. The power consumption comes up to about 330W, which is again expensive, an affair. With the overall weight being about 35kg, it comes with a silver colour remote.
Overall, this model is a good one with all latest features and Samsung’s state of the art technologies used. Ignoring certain drawbacks, which any model would have, like the power consumption, weight of the unit etc, this TV is definitely recommended and a good choice!

Panasonic VIERA PZ850
The Panasonic VIERA PZ850 is Panasonic’s first VIERA CAST Web enabled Plasma HDTV. The Panasonic VIERA PZ850 was first introduced during the CES 2008 and has been much awaited.
Features
The Panasonic PZ850 is already 1080P full HD capable and comes in 46 (46PZ850), 50 (50PZ850), 58 (58PZ850), and 65 (65PZ850) inch models. Like many of Panasonic’s newly released HDTVs, the Panasonic PZ850 has an integrated SD card so you can easily view your pictures, and an H.264 codec which allows you to view HD videos from your camcorder directly through the SD card.
The Panasonic PZ850 has a native resolution of 30,000:1 and a whopping dynamic ratio of 1,000,000:1, 24p native reproduction, gaming mode, PC input, and four HDMI connections.
What makes the Panasonic PZ850 a much anticipated HDTV is the VIERA Cast Web which enables it to view content directly from YouTube, Picasa Web Album, and Bloomberg.
Conclusion
Though I don’t see the point of viewing YouTube videos on a 46 inch HDTV especially since most videos on YouTube are not high definition which will only make those videos more washed out and grainy, but still, it’s a nice add on specially since Panasonic is famous for making good quality HDTVs.
