Panasonic Viera TC-37LZ85 37-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV Reviews
After carefully doing research online I am glad I chose this TV over the competition. The Panasonic TC-37LZ85 is an amazing TV. XBox 360 looks amazing also. TV was easy to set up and customize. The price was great on amazon, shipping was prompt. Better than expected. Highly recommend. For the price there is no better TV.
I compared the 720P & 1080P units for picture quality & found them to be similar in the full screen mode. Plasma is still king when it comes to picture quality, but this is very close. The screens of the Sony, Panasonic, Samsung, Toshiba, etc.
To make a long story short- I love this set and am glad I waited until 1080P was available in the LCD market. I have no intention of installing external speakers, so it was extremely important to have a decent set of internal speakers in my selection. are all similar side-by-side , but I definitely prefer the sound coming from the Panasonic.
I spent several hours reviewing 37" LCD TV's online and followed it up by going to one of our local superstores to see & listen to the units. It was no contest with the extra lines of resolution available on the 1080P units. What separated the former from the latter was the zoom mode I regularly use when I watch TV in the letterbox or 4.3 format.
The other thing I noticed in the store was the side viewing angle of the Panasonic was by far the best of any LCD's I watched. They do make a difference.
The width fit perfectly. However, who decided the shape of the flat screens should be rectangular, rather than square. I purchased the 37" Viera based on Consumer Reports recommendation, and am very happy with it. Great TV for the price. I had to purchase a riser to raise the level of the TV to be centered vertically in my entertainment center. Not Panasonic's fault, but aggravating nonetheless.
Most important are the features. Product arrived quicker than promised, Priced below competitor products by over $500, the HDTV definetly deserves the rating it received in Consumer Reports which quotes $1,400. The unit has the BEST viewing angle of any of the pricier units compared.
The Panasonic Viera TC-37LZ85 37 inch tv's (two) which I purchased did not live up to my expectaions. I use them with Cable TV and the pictures are not as clear as I wanted on the HDTV channels, changing channels is very slow, and the sound is poor - we need to have sound at 100 (maximum) for hearing the TV in normal conditions.
