I purchased the Panasonic 58" Viera a few weeks ago. It is an amazing tv with a great picture. We still haven't hooked up the Viera on-line services yet (mainly because it requires a ethernet connetion instead of the USB wireless connection that I purchased for it). The only negative things that I would say is (1) it is more reflective than it should be, (2) the stand sticks out a good 8 in front of the TV, and (3) the internet connection should be available via ethernet or USB 2.0 connections (the lack of a USB limits hooking up a lot of things). Otherwise, it is an amazing TV.

I've owned this TV for a little less than 2 weeks. Overall i'm very pleased with my purchase. Installation and setup was easy. I'm using this TV with a Dish Network HD DVR receiver. I've also connected an ethernet connection and a standard definition DVD player. Picture quality is excellent. I'm using the "Vivid" setting, but sometimes use the "Standard" setting for casual viewing to save energy, etc. (not sure how much it really saves though ...). Prior to purchase i was considering this model and the 58PZ800U. I elected to purchase this model because of its Viera Cast capability (i.e., the ethernet IPTV connection). The only disappointment so far is that Viera Cast on this TV does not contain Amazon Video on Demand. I've checked various websites and called Panasonic support and it's not certain whether Amazon VOD will be implemented on this TV via a software update. If that is true, I would recommend to other buyers who are considering this model versus the 800U to go with the latter and if they are interested in the Viera Cast capability, to simply purchase a Panasonic Blu Ray player with Viera Cast.

So much has already been said about this amazing Plasma so I won't waste words here. After months of research this loyal Sony owner jumped ship.After side by side comparisons and reading countless reviews I determined that the Viera blew the Sony XBR away. The Kuros by Pioneer has priced itself out of the competition for my wallet and to be honest I think you are splitting hairs between the Viera and the Kuros.My dilemna was in choosing between the 58 Inch Viera 800 or the flagship 850U. The lesser priced 800 is the only model of the two that gets the THX certification on it's picture and is priced around $500.00 less. The 850U has the firmware and ethernet connection so that it's capabilities are upgradeable.It currrently has the ability to view your Picasa photo's,watch YouTube videos, and a few other neat things like the one click concierge service for any problems the TV should have as well as world weather. The Vera Link option works seamlessly with my Panasonic 55 Blu-Ray player. I was able to have the best of both worlds. Although Abes of Maine consistantly had the 800 at he best price around. I was able to buy a refurbished 850U that comes with the 90 day warranty from Panasonic.I paid $2399.00 and I am so happy I did. This TV is in perfect condition and they pack it like it's the last one on earth. I bought from Just like New Electronics in case you are looking. I'm amazed at this Picture and all the bells ans whistles the TV has. It's has th whole family under it's hypnotic spell.I wanted the cleanest look I could get and replaced my old surround sound system with a Yamaha YSP4000 sound bar. I have no regrets on any of it.By buying the 850U I'm able to stay up to date with all the new ways Panasonic can think of to keep me connected to the world. I love the fact that it has begun to replace my small PC screen and Laptop with 58 inches of mind blowing views. If you can swing it I would not hesitate to buy the 850U. I don't think the lack of THX certification means anything other than Panasonic not wanting to pay the extra money for the Certification in an effort to keep it way under the Kuros.

All,
This is a great tv and I am not going to spend time on different aspects of this tv. Go to [.....] and read full review. However,I would like to report one thing as all buyers who buy Panasonic 850 series with Viera cast feature would need. I do not have Ethernet connection close to where I have installed tv. I have bought Apple Airport Express and configured it with home wireless network successfully. I am sure there are other solutions but this is something I can say with confidence that it works! Here is the link, [.........]

I bought it 8 months ago. I can't believe the picture and sound. And the size. I am no expert, but I looked at a lot of TVs and read consumer reports. Absolutely enjoy it. I paid 2800 for the 58 inch, it's a lot cheaper now

I've had this set for nearly a year now and i could'nt be more happy with it. The picture quality is outstanding, looks great mounted on my wall, and the price was right. I originally bought a Samsung, 52 inch, 850 series lcd tv which had a very bad clouding issue and also had very weak speakers. I returned it to Amazon and chose this plasma set instead. I tell ya, for those who say plasma tv's are not the way to go anymore are mistaken. The black level's on plasma's are superior to lcd tv's, and in my opinion, they have more of a realistic picture. I am totally satisfied with this tv and im glad i made with switch to plasma. I give it 5 stars.

Be wary of Panasonic plasma. I had mine under two years and voltage and dead pixels were apparent. They won't offer an extended warranty either because it is over the time limit!

I read almost all 99 of the reviews on this TV while trying to decide on what to get. I ended up with this 58 in plasma and I couldn't be happier. Not only is the TV great right out of the box, but the box itself was engineered great and this TV is easy to unpack and set up.
I have only had this for 1 week, but it is perfect. Great picture, great sound, plenty of inputs, you will like this TV.

I've had this TV for some time now, so this review is based on some experience. First, I'm still extemely satisified with the TV. Everything is crisp, colors pop without being too fake. I set my settings according to the C-Net review and it's great. I use an OPPO DVD player for upscaling my regular DVDs since nothing else is as good and every review I ever read uses the OPPO as their benchmark for upscaling (for good reason). Takes two people to hang on the wall, but you don't have to be musclemen to do it - it's actually pretty light, just too big for one person to grab hold of.
Bought from the Amazon shop (I personally have had issues ordering electronics from other shops outside the official Amazon shop) and it was delivered white glove. they took it out, set it up, ensured it worked, etc, etc. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this set to anyone. Since the Pioneer Elite Kuro is no longer being manufactured, this is now the TOP in it's field. BTW, just my take, I don't really see any difference between this set and the Kuro except about $3000. :)
