Quick take: Although CNET did not review the 50-inch Panasonic TH-50PZ750U, we did review the 58-inch Panasonic TH-58PZ750U. Judging from their spec sheets, the two Panasonic plasma HDTVs are essentially identical but for screen size, so we expect the picture quality of the 58-inch model to provide a good indication of how the 50-incher will perform. For more information, refer to the full review of the Panasonic TH-58PZ750U.
Description:
The Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ750U is a 50-inch, plasma television.
