The Panasonic TX-P42G20 TV – A First Look

The Panasonic TX-P42G20 plasma screen television is new on the scene for 2010 and is one of the Japanese consumer electronics maker’s second-generation picture display system plasma TVs. It’s a 42-inch television of no small accomplishment, by the way, and Panasonic has made sure to include more than a few excellent features and functions sure to attract many buyers.

New to the market in March, 2010, this plasma TV is situated within the Viera line up of Panasonic televisions. Vieras are known for their high quality and attractive looks, by the way, and this TV does its part in keeping that perception going. Currently, it can be found for about 1100 British pounds, including VAT. Given all that it brings to the table, most would agree that that’s a very attractive price.

The TX-P42G20 is true high definition, meaning that its display comes in at 1080p (pixels). It also comes with the newest version of Panasonic’s Freesat, with this one being brought to the market using HD. Freesat is a proprietary tuning filter offered by Panasonic and which allows for the viewing of over 100 UK-specific satellite channels, this time in high definition.

To support this high definition capability, Panasonic has included one of its better processors. At 600 Hz refresh rate, there’ll be little chance of any movement or action occurring on the display screen coming across as being smeared or blurry. When combined with 1080p and this motion engine, Viera TVs are quite often considered some of the best at delivering a quality picture under most any circumstance.

This particular Panasonic can also access the Internet, and all that’s required is the attachment of a separately-sold wireless USB dongle. Once that’s hooked up, it becomes extremely easy to begin surfing many different available online websites. Additionally, the TV comes with an SD card slot to allow for the viewing of high-definition photos and video files.

This particular Viera also comes with the ability to accommodate a wide range of electronic components, and it’ll be easy enough to hook them up because there are a large number of input ports, for one. With four separate HDMI ports and with what Panasonic calls “Viera Link Technology, ” the television’s user will only need the unit’s remote control to keep all other components under oversight.

Panasonic always makes sure that its Viera TVs also work well at projecting sound. It has included a full Dolby Digital technology suite, which will be doubly-enhanced when the television’s owner finally adds a quality home theater system to the mix. And even if such a system is never utilized, the sound will be first rate across the board, enhanced as it is by a THX-certified sound projection capability.

At a price of around 1100 British pounds after VAT, the Panasonic TX-P42G20 is actually a quite-impressive bargain, especially considering all that it brings to the table in terms of performance. It makes use of Panasonic’s Neo/PDP system to deliver high-quality picture from a display screen that will be extremely durable and long-lasting. It’s also a member of the Viera line of Panasonic TVs, meaning that it’s a top performer across the board.
