Five Reasons to Buy the Panasonic Viera TC-P65V10

By editor · Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Panasonic is one of the leading manufacturers of Plasma HDTVs and the Panasonic Viera TC-P65V10 is one of their best models yet. If that’s not enough, here are five reasons why you should consider getting it for your home.

1. Infinite Blacks

Plasma televisions are known for their outstanding black levels which contribute to the creation of breathtaking images and the Panasonic Viera TC-P65V10 is no different. In fact, it takes black levels to the next level with its Neo PDP panel and Real Black Drive System, making them infinite with a dynamic contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1.

2. THX Mode

With the TC-P65V10, you don’t have to buy tickets to enjoy the movie theatre experience. You can enjoy it right in the comfort of your own living room by engaging the THX mode. This mode enhances color accuracy, detail and other picture characteristics, and even raises the audio quality up a notch, faithfully recreating the ambience of a movie theatre.

3. Processing

If you love watching movies on your HDTV, you’ll love watching them even more on the TC-P65V10, which can display them in their original format at 24 frames per second. You won’t have to worry about any flickering, too, or the other problems associated with the 2:3 pulldown, since the 24p Cinematic Playback mode is coupled with a 96Hz refresh rate. 1080p and 1080i content are also displayed correctly, while a 600Hz Sub-field Drive and an image-analysis technology takes care of any motion artifacts, making processing one of this Viera’s strengths overall.

4. Interactivity

For your convenience, the TC-P65V10 comes with a couple of interactive features that you’re sure to love. For one, it offers the Viera Cast feature, which lets you access the latest headlines, weather reports and stock market updates from Bloomberg directly on your screen, which means you don’t have to check them on your computer regularly. You can even access the photos on your Picasa account and free YouTube videos, along with high-definition movies and TV episodes from Amazon Video on Demand – something new for the Panasonic V10 series. If you have a computer network at home, you can play the media files straight from them, too, thanks to DLNA, although the file formats you can play are currently limited.

Aside from the Viera Cast, this HDTV also comes with the Viera Link, which allows you to control other home theatre devices via HDMI-CEC for convenience, along with the Viera Image Viewer, which makes sharing your photos and videos easier via the SD card slot you’ll find on the side panel and more fun, with up to four display effects.

5. Good connectivity

Do you have a DVD or Blu-ray player, a recorder, an HD speaker system, a computer and a game console? You can connect them all to the Panasonic Viera TC-P65V10, which has four HDMI inputs, a PC input and two component-video inputs. There are also enough digital and analog inputs and outputs for all your audio needs.

These are just some of the major features of the Panasonic Viera TC-P65V10 that make it a worthy purchase. True, it may not be as stylish as some HDTVs or as energy efficient, not to mention that it comes at a steep price, but it remains an excellent Plasma HDTV that is sure to take your viewing experience to the next level.
