This is a beautiful piece of equipment. It matched and surpassed our family's viewing needs. The image is crisp and clear. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the glossy screen. 50" of glossy screen is very reflective. You really need a darkened room to enjoy the set and then it blows you away. Audio quality is improved through a DVD player's features because the TV's audio features are scant. There are plenty of inputs to connect all your peripherals. I just bought it, let's see how it is a year from now when the warranty runs out.

Pretty much, this TV rocks.
They have some at a local store and I'm bewildered people walk by them at their price point and buy a more expensive, inferior TV set.
It looks good with any source. SD, HD, it does great. Of course things are not going to look as good with SD content, but you've got a 46" screen where you wouldn't be able to see the gritty details as well as on an old 27" SDTV set - it's technology, not magic.
Do yourself a favor and get your TV calibrated. We picked up a copy of Elf on DVD and used its picture calibration setup, the picture went from great to even greater. It was impressive. I didn't think it could had got any better.
Video games, this thing is like an arcade monitor on steroids. They don't have monitors as good as this thing in arcades.
Even playing super fast games everything looks buttery smooth. Even old 16bit video games look good on this monitor.
Over the air HDTV looks great, especially a local 1080i channel (PBS HD). It looks like a computer screen using DVI input instead of a TV screen, that's how good it looks.
My complaint? I DO have a complaint. The TV signal meter will not stay up longer than 2 minutes, and when I'm outside adjusting an antenna looking through the window in the cold and it vanishes, that sucks.
But that's about it. Family has a 2 year old Vizio plasma that has noticable ghosting, otherwise called burn in (but fades, so, ghosting).
This television has not even had a hint of ghosting even from the word go. I'm completely comfortable playing video games with it, for hours. Not a single problem.
Plasma? Panasonic? Win.

We've had this TV about a month, connected to digital cable and a blue ray player- AWESOME! Let me say this is my first HDTV, but comparing to my friends set-ups, this blows them away! Picture quality is excellent (as says everyone that sees it), very easy to set up and use- I would recommend this set to anyone.

This is my second Panasonic plasma screen. My first Panasonic, now about two years old, is a great 42 inch set and has a great picture. I used it for my satellite tv, computer and running blu-rays from my PS3. I thought I couldn't got wrong with Panasonic after the success of the first, but I am disappointed with the 46 inch U1. It was an incredible price at another retailer ($788 and I've heard of some getting it for $698) and I noted the 5 star reviews here, but after having it a few weeks, wish I had spent more on something else. The picture controls have very limited effect, and frankly the image is very dark. Some movies and TV shows..especially those shot at night have such a dark image that you can't see any detail. This TV is very energy efficient as compared to their other models, and uses half the energy that my 42 inch did, and maybe that is where the image sacrifice is. That said, it is 46 inches, and Panasonic has one of the best durability track records out there. So, good bang for the buck perhaps, but I would buy another TV if I had it to do over again.

My Samsung 50 inch DLP finally gave up the ghost, and don't get me started on how many times the repairman had to come out and put parts in the darn thing, and how long it sat waiting on those parts, and oh yes the bulbs that would just go out for no reason. But I digress, on to the Panasonic. I got a deal at $695.00 from another dealer and what a breeze to set up with my home theater system and harmony remote. I did not even look at the owners manual until I was watching tv. I did not know how sharp and clear my dish network HD channels were until I got this TV, it is so user friendly. I did go from a 50 inch to a 46 but the quality of the picture more than makes up for the loss in size. At the time I bought the DLP in 2004 a Plasma this size cost around $5000 and the quality was no where near this good. Again I say this is a great TV.

This TV is so sweet. I have looked for over a year for the perfect TV. Either they were to much, to blurry, not dark enough, not big enough, or you never herd of the brand. AND NOW I got my Panasonic 46" TC-P46U1 for $788. It runs at 600Hz are you kidding the motion scene are crystal clear. YOU DO HAVE TO HAVE AN HD SIGNAL FOR IT TO BE CLEAR! To many people get angry when they hook up their regular TV signal at 420P and want it to be clear? So if you have an HD receiver from a dish company or a blue ray player, your good to go with this TV. Owe yeah YOU HAVE TO USE AN HDMI CABLE!

Loved the TV for the first 90 days. Beautiful picture, decent sound, plenty of connectivity options. Today it wouldn't turn on; the power LED blinked 7 times, then paused, then blinked 7 times repeatedly.
I called Panasonic Customer Service, the guy had me unplug it, wait 2 minutes, plug it back in. Same result. He had me remove it from AC line conditioner and plug directly into wall socket, still dead. He tried to transfer our call to another department but no one answered. He said someone will return our call within 24 hours. Still waiting.
Searching the Internet leads me to believe this problem is fairly common, and that Panasonic Customer Service is not terribly responsive.
Considering my previous Panasonic Viera LCD only lasted about 3 years before developing cloudy gray areas (also common according to my Internet research), I should have thought twice about buying another Panasonic.

When I originally saw this TV with a free shipping offer from Amazon, I decided to purchase it. Big mistake. The original TV I purchased arrived approximately 3 days later and, to my surprise, was only packaged in the original Panasonic box. There was no additional packaging provided by Amazon to protect a delicate piece of equipment like this from the rough handling that take place during shipping. When I opened the box, there were four small pieces of styrofoam contoured to each corner of the TV. That was the only insulation protecting it - nothing over the screen. I took the screen out of the box, and it was shattered, looking like a spider web of broken glass. Disappointed, I immediately called Amazon and requested a replacement, which they were happy to arrange for me. I specifically requested that the replacement be insulated better and marked 'fragile,' and the representative assured me that management looks at all products damaged from packaging/shipping to make sure the situation did not repeat itself. This was a load of BS. The replacement TV arrived about 3 days later and in the exact same condition as the first one. Same packaging, same shattered screen. I found this whole situation to be absurd, because I can hardly believe this is the first TV Amazon ever shipped; they should know what they're doing by now. I cannot believe anyone expected this TV to arrive in one piece based on the packaging. This isn't rocket science; it was laziness. Amazon was too lazy to spend a few extra dollars properly packaging the TV, and as a result, destroyed $1600 worth of electronics. Wouldn't it have been more cost effective for everyone if Amazon just did it right the first time? And to let it happen twice is completely unacceptable and shows me that Amazon does not really care about customer satisfaction. I finally received a credit back on my credit card about 10 business days after they received the package, but the total time it took to receive my refund from the time I shipped it was about 21 calendar days. Bottom line: I would not recommend having an electronic like this shipped, period. Lesson learned and I went to Best Buy instead.

The Panasonic brand seems to continue to set the industry standard for Plasma HD. Couldn't ask for better performance at a very economical price.

My last Panasonic 42" was stolen in a home robbery.I bought it 4 years ago because it was the one of the highest rated by Consumer Reports at the time. This is supposed to be the upgraded model and still highly rated by CR. The picture is great, big difference with the 1080p. It was simple to set up and offers lots of screen options. I was not happy with the delivery. I paid $99 for 1-3 day delivery and did not receive for over a week (7 days). I am still requesting the refund which was promised.

I previously owned a bulky 46" DLP but decided I needed a new and smaller TV due to moving into a smaller place. I researched for a while and decided on this television, the deciding factors being 1080p, contrast, and refresh rate. I have to say, I'm very pleased.
This is the first full HD television I've ever owned. After tweaking with the picture I stuck in Wall-E on Blu-Ray and was amazed by the clarity. I realized just how much I'd been missing out on HD with my other TV.
I wish it has a PC input, but you can get HDMI adapters for that. The picture quality of an HDMI connected device looks awesome, but I've noticed it's a little dark with component devices like game consoles as well as cable and HD signal channels. Games look good though, even the Wii looks pretty good. I wish I could have tested out my XBox360 more on this set but it unfortunately broke two days after getting the TV. Figures...
I bought this TV with hopes of getting the best Blu-Ray picture at this price range and I think I got it. At under $900 this TV is a steal.
