Pros

Good black levels.
Accurate color.
Solid selection of streaming media apps.
Excellent overall picture quality.
Deep black levels.
Accurate color and solid video processing.
It can handle 1080p/24 sources and bright rooms well and exhibits the nearly perfect screen uniformity of plasma.

Cons

Power hungry.
Some fringing in dark scenes.
Doesn’t get very bright when correctly calibrated.
Picture quality flaws include subtly fluctuating black and gray levels as well as inaccurate gamma that washes out shadows somewhat.
Fewer picture controls than the competition.
Doesn't include 3D glasses and uses significantly more power.

Let’s not beat about the bush, the TX-P50GT30 is a fabulous plasma display. While we’d like to see greater design flair, the panel compensates with a high def image performance that shows 90 per cent of its rivals a clean pair of heals....

A 50-inch, 3D-ready plasma HDTV, the Panasonic TC-P50GT30 offers solid performance at a reasonable price, but its hunger for electricity and some fringing in dark areas of its picture hold it back....

With both 2D and 3D content, Panasonic's TC-P50GT30 is a very good performer, and its well-rounded features package hits all of the desirable bases: Web-based video-on-demand, an included WiFi adapter, DLNA streaming, and even Skype video...

The GT30 is a good set, but apart from slightly spiffier aesthetics, more cable clearance for a wall mount, an additional HDMI input, a PC input, and THX certification—which is of questionable value in this particular case—it offers little that you...

Comparing the spec sheet of this £1500 TX-P50GT30 with the £2000 is like a tough game of spot-the-difference. Panasonic has helped us out, though, confirming that, aside from differences in looks and construction, the GT’s High Contrast...

Despite Panasonic's stingyness on the specs front, we still love the Panasonic TX-P42GT30B. It should top the list if you're in the market for a 3D HDTV, and fancy plasma over LED. Panasonic TX-P42GT30B is tagged with Panasonic TX-P42GT30B,...

The GT30 has more contrast than the older GT20, has a great quality picture once you set it up in THX mode. The most demanding viewers will probably prefer the VT30 for getting closer to perfection, the GT30 is almost certainly better value for...

The Panasonic TC-50GT30 plasma not only delivers a deliciously lush 2D picture, its rendering of 3D Blu-rays is one of the best that I have seen. Add to that a strong troupe of Internet content providers and this VIERA GT30 makes a great centerpiece...

  Overall, I would rate the TX-P42GT30 as an outstanding TV. And should you want to spring for those expensive Active Shutter glasses, the 3D image is clean and immersive, its network functionality is first rate and 2D image quality is...
