Panasonic Viera TC-P50V10: Deep Blacks, Plenty of Features
The Panasonic TC-PV10 is one sleek plasma HDTV with deep blacks and key improvements over its predecessors: better video processing to handle 1080p/24 sources with more picture adjustments that allow it to transcend the limitations of THX mode.
• 1080p Full-HD Resolution
• Digital Cinema Color: 120% of the conventional HDTV color standard
• THX Certified Display: Movie images as the movie creators intended them
• Get Access to exciting web content. No PC required!
The TC-PV10 picture should satisfy all but the pickiest of picky videophiles. It also outperforms any LCD-based display, LED or otherwise. Beyond image quality, the V10 delivers plenty of features and an eye-catching one-sheet-of-glass design, for a combination that deserves serious consideration from buyers willing to pay for it.
Key Product Features
• Designed to network, this plasma is internet-capable with VIERA Cast
• Smooth images and brilliant colors are a given.
• The V10-series boasts a 1080p Neo PDP infinite black panel with a 40,000:1
Its main external differentiator is what the company calls "one sheet of glass" design, where a pane of glass extends beyond the edge of the screen and over the bezel itself, leading to a seamless look that's even more impressive in person than in pictures. (It's worth noting that only the 50- and 54-inch models feature the one-sheet design; the larger members of the series have the more traditional, visually separate bezel around the screen).

The V10 Series Plasma takes advantage of newly-developed NeoPDP technology, featuring a sleek thin profile and superb levels of brightness and contrast for industry-leading image quality. Designed for the discerning home viewer, the V10 Series meets the strict image quality and engineering standards required to receive the prestigious THX certification, and reproduces the maximum 1080 lines of moving image resolution with accurate color and luminance levels. |
Panasonic's V10 series avoids the relatively bright silver fade along the bottom of the frame seen on the company's step-down TC-PG10 models, instead opting for a much subtler silver accent that arcs slightly upward in the middle. According to CNET the V10 looks more attractive and sophisticated than the G10, and it's one of the coolest-looking TV designs seen in 2009.
