 Incredible TV just amazing. Mar 08, 2010
I have had my TV for 3 months and haven't had any issues yet. The picture quality is outstanding. It has very deep blacks making the picture quality amazing. Plenty of HDMI inputs which came in handy because my surround sound came out before HDMI. So I go direct to the TV with my cable box, xbox, and blue-ray player, then audio out to my surround sound. The TV works as the hub for all of my equipment. I can't say enough good things about this TV.
P50V10 Feb 14, 2010
Excellent plasma display. This is my second Panasonic and i just moved from a Samsung LCD. For movies i prefer plasma. Sound quality in not applicable because all Audio is routed to my home theatre system.
This is a clean unobtrusive design that just works. My colleague has the discontinued pioneer 60" KURO and the differences in picture quality are negligible.

 Great TV So Far... But Buyer Beware! Feb 09, 2010
Finally took the jump to plasma, and finally chose (after much research) to do it with a 50-inch V10 from Panasonic.
So far this TV is absolutely amazing with an incredible picture. It really delivers amazing color and incredibly dark inky blacks. It is a joy to watch and play video games on (PS3). No problems experienced at all whatsoever with image retention.
Unfortunately, however, I was shocked (a mere two weeks after receiving my TV) to find that an editor from the reputable CNET added a disclaimer to his previously glowing V10 review that there have been widespread reports that certain Panasonic plasma models (2008 & 2009 S1, G10, G15, & V10 to be specific) lose their dark inky black levels somewhere between 500 and 1000 hours of use. The speculation is that this is caused by too aggressive voltage adjustments that have caused the black levels of some owners to lighten by double or even triple the initial level seemingly overnight.
The jury is still out as to whether this is only an issue that affects a small percentage of the sets or if it is an inherent flaw in the technology of these models, and more so, whether or not Panasonic will issue a fix for it.
I wish I was armed with this knowledge prior to making my purchase, as I certainly would have some reservations over choosing the most expensive model they offer. Now, I can only pass this information on to anyone else poised and ready to take the plunge as I just was.
Amazon doesn't allow me to include links to other sites, but a Google of "CNET Panasonic Black Levels" will get you to the relevant discussions so that you can arm yourself with the right facts for your decision.
I hate to knock what has otherwise been an incredible TV set for me up until this point without having experienced the issue myself, but people should be "in the know". Now whenever I gaze into that beautiful plasma picture I can only wonder if it will still remain that way a few short months into the future.
Best of luck to you in your purchases!

Waited a Year to Buy this HDTV and it was Worth the Wait!!! Jan 31, 2010
Well I researched and researched HDTV's from Samsung, Pioneer and Panasonic. Every review kept me coming back to look at the TC-P50V10 from Panasonic. At the big retailers the TV was beautiful in person as far as the build and overall appearance, but was not setup to display the best possible picture. Even not being able to view it in person on optimal settings, I knew this TV was going to display a glorious picture.
I have owned this TV for 3 weeks now and my jaw drops at the HD picture every time I view something on it. Using the settings from Cnet in a darkened room produce a movie theater experience. The sound from the built in speakers is ok, but I have them turned off and use my Home theater sound setup. My home theater consists of a Denon 3808CI HDMI switching receiver, an OPPO BDP-83 Blu-Ray a Monster Clean Power Stage 2 HDP 1800 Power Center (8 Outlet) and Klipsch Reference Series Speakers in a 5.1 configuration. Everything is Connected via HDMI using Monster 700 Series cables.
I know the Monster products are way overpriced and produce the same quality as cheaper alternatives, but I can't spend $2000 + on a TV and $500 on a stand and use $10 cables to connect it all. The Monster cables are made of high quality material and make me feel better, which is important to me.
In conclusion as many reviews have said this is the best TV of 2009 and rivals the Pioneer at half the price. The blacks are phenomenal and the overall colors are sparkling. I watch a lot of sports on this TV including Football and Hockey and I am stunned at the HD quality of these sporting events. Just read the reviews here and you will find that review after review reflect all that I am saying about this great TV. If you are drawn back by the reviews that mention the poor speakers try and get your self a home theater setup. Doesn't have to be a $1000 + system, just something to give you that movie theater experience.
Cant beat the picture quality or value Jan 30, 2010
We had a 42" Samsung EDTV that was six year old so buying this 50" TV has been a tremendous upgrade. The picture quality of this Panasonic seems to provide more of a "Theatrical" Experience. We use it for HD programming as well as blue ray. I had considered the Pioneer Kuro that has been discontinued. I was looking for a higher end 50" plasma with 1080P without breaking the bank.
The swivel feature is very practical - I hid both of our component switch and PS3 behind it and can access both when I need to (we have this TV mounted in an entertainment cabinet).
Lastly the TV was easy to set up and customize/calibrate settings. My only complaint is that picture in a picture is not available but due to our dual sattelite tuner setup I would not be able to use that very often anyway.
