Hitachi P50S601 50 Inch Full HD1080 Plasma HDTV

The Hitachi P50S601 is a 50-inch plasma HDTV that offers 1080i resolution and Hitachi's ClearWindow technology for an enhanced picture quality that will dazzle your eyes.

Outstanding Picture Quality
As a 1080i HDTV, the P50S601 provides a 1920 x 1080 resolution that is razor sharp with more than two million pixels. Picture quality is further enhanced, thanks to ClearWindow technology that reduces the visibility of a grid structure and maximizes brightness and clarity.

ClearWindow technology reduces the visibility of a pixel grid structure for a better picture. View larger. View back panel.

Timed swtiching allows picture settings to automatically adjust for changing ambient light conditions.

With the PictureMaster HD IV processor, all video inputs are scaled up to match the full 1080i resolution of the unit to ensure an optimized picture no matter the source. For a better picture, the processor also performs noise reduction and other picture enhancements, such as dynamic contrast and histogram processing, automatic 3:2 film enhancement, and the capability for 16-bit color. Users can select between four HD and six SD aspect modes, and three preset color temperatures.

Well Connected
The P50S601 has three HDMI SimplayHD inputs (two rear, one front), the highest quality connection available that has both high definition video and audio in one cable. It also has two component video inputs, one S-Video input, four A/V inputs, and one RF/Antenna input. Outputs include one AV monitor output (fixed audio), one S-Video monitor output, and one optical digital audio output. You can connect the optical digital audio output with your home theater system to obtain surround sound when the built-in 20-watt speaker system isn't quite enough. The TV speaker can then be used as a center speaker.

The HDTV has built-in ATSC/NTSC tuners, both of which are combined into one tuning memory for seamless selection of channels, regardless of format. The unit is also QAM-digital-cable compatible.

Day and Night Differences
The P50S601 allows for three custom settings that match the picture settings with accompanying ambient light conditions so that you get the optimal picture and contrast settings no matter the hour. Additionally, the anti-reflective screen has a unique black stripe screen filter that ensures a quality picture by blocking ambient room light for added brightness and deeper blacks. The television also features multiple screen saver and power saving modes for efficiency when not in use. A power swivel stand is included that rotates the screen up to 30 degrees in either direction, so an optimal viewing experience is available for every seat in the room.

The P50S601 is backed by a 1-year parts and labor warranty.

Full HD1080 2.07 million pixel array perfectly matches the 1080i HDTV resolution standard (1920 x 1080 panel resolution).

PictureMaster HD IV Proprietary digital video processor optimizes picture performance of all incoming source material.

3 HDMI SimplayHD 1080i Compatible Inputs Multiple high-end digital interfaces for optimal connectivity of home theater components.

ClearWindow Plasma Technology Smoother image reproduction with higher brightness output and less visible grid structure.

Day/Dynamic/Night Memory by Input with Timer Three customized settings for each input that match the picture settings to the ambient light conditions of the viewing environment.

4 Stars Happy Purchaser
First, contrary to what another reviewer has said, this is a full 1080p set. This is our first flat panel television and we are happy with it so far (but have only had it two days). Set up was easy. The picure is great (and we have looked at 1080p Blue Ray picture on the set using Playstion). Reflection is not bad at all. Very well designed remote, except that it has no lighting and no glow. This set is in our bedroom, and the power swivel was just what we needed so we can see the set from the sitting area or from bed. A word about the "white glove" shipping. This left something to be desired. There is no tracking info available. Amazon was telling me to expect delivery by 11 January but it showed up without a call or anything on January 5th. Lucky we were home. The delivery men at first balked at bringing the set up to our second floor, though they eventually did it. Still -- a lot less hassle than trying to bring a behemoth like this home from a store myself!

5 Stars Great TV!!!!!
This is my first High-Definition TV and I'm glad I bought it. The picture is beautiful and I didn't upgrade my satellite box yet. I could only imagine what the picture will be like when I do. The sound is great too. The power swivel is cool and easy to install. I highly recommend this plasma to everyone!!

5 Stars Outstanding... (well for the price at least)
I got this TV a couple of months ago, but didn 't want to write the review before I make a truly run on it. I am watching it on daily base of course, and I am amazed. Sure... if you go to retail stores and look at a Samsung or a Sonny you will find that the image quality is better, but have a look at the price tags... You will see what I mean. For the $1500 this was far the best choice and I don 't regret it.

You can get a samsung or a sony or a panasonic for the same amount at 1080p but it will be 42". To truly see the image difference at 1080p you really need the above 42". There are some features that amaze me:

1. Swiveling base, controlled by the remote!!!

2. Different settings for different time of the day!!! Superb! I have a lot of light in the afternoon and very little in the morning. That feature makes the brightness adjustment a button away!

3. 3 HDMI's and 3 Component. Too many, but I am glad!

4. Excellent sound quality. From the TV or by using the optical audio out.

5. Connector to popcorn machine to pop corn right when the movie starts... Nah... Just kidding. I do however connect it to my laptop for gaming, and the color quality is unbelievable.

One little bug a few reviews noticed, is the speakers, that can be used as central speakers in a 5.1 surround, but there is a delay which is annoying. There is an option to change the timing but it only goes forward. But it is a minor minor bug...

5 Stars Awesome Plasma HDTV!

Sharp Aquos LC52D85U 52-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV

This TV is the best I've ever owned. Setup was painless and really there was very little tweaking of the colors out of the box. The picture is amazing. PS3 looks great, blueray movies even better and this TV has "5" HDMI inputs. The room it's in is very bright and the TV performs great, my previous TV was a HD CRT and would wash out in the day light. Not so with this TV and sports look amazing!!!! I love this TV and I'm very happy with the purchase. I would recommend it to anyone. It is simply the best TV I have ever viewed.
