Back in January of this year we reviewed the Panasonic TH-50PX60U and were impressed with what we saw. At that time we had three things we didn't like about the TV. Today we take a look at Panasonic's new 50 inch 720p plasma, the TH-50PX75U, which comes with a street price of $2100 and addresses the three nit picks we had with the earlier model. This is a 720p TV with a resolution of 1366 x 768, a 10,000:1 contrast ratio, two HDMI inputs, and an SD card reader. One of the issues we (mainly Ara) had with its predecessor was its silver bezel. The 50PX75U comes with a thin black bezel that hides the speakers very well and looks quite good even when its off. Rounding out the features, the TV come with built-in ATSC/QAM/NTSC Tuners. Build quality is quite good. The product dimensions are 47.7 x 3.8 x 31.3 inches and it weighs 89.8 pounds which is almost identical to the previous model.

I just bought the Panasonic TH-50PX75U at Circuit City on sale for $1599 plus a $100 rebate. It ws upgraded to a $200 rebate because I ahd their technicians complete the install as well.

Thjis TV is replacing an 6 year-old Mitsubishi 55" Diamond Star HD projections set. This Panasonic is amazing. The picture clarity is wonderful in both HD and non-HD broadcasts. I strongly recommend this set for entry into the Plasma market.

They quoted you the 1080p Panasonic TH-50PX750U instead of the much less expensive TH-50PX75U, which is not a 1080p plasma.
