Panasonic TH-42PH9 Pro Reviews

hdtvtest‘s review Edit

In the frenzy of all the recent "1080p full HD" marketing push, it's easy to forget that resolution comes after contrast ratio and colour saturation in terms of overall contribution to picture quality. The Panasonic TH42PH9 is a perfect demonstration of this: while it loses out a tad in sharpness and detail, its picture quality still triumphs over all other HDTVs we've reviewed so far courtesy of its black levels, shadow detail, greyscale tracking and colour decoding. The Sharp 42XD1E was neck and neck with the TH42PH9 in these aspects with the added advantage of accurate primary colours, but in the end the plasma's massively superior viewing angle, digital noise suppression and standard definition handling shaded it for us.
