 Great TV Sep 07, 2010
I just purchased this TV last week from Amazon. I was very skeptical about the TV since I've read some negative reviews regarding the buzzing. Let me start by saying that I'm not happy with CEVA shipping that Amazon used, they called me to schedule a delivery time at 1 pm on Thursday, I had the day off so it was fine with me, I got up early and went to the pharmacy to buy some medicines around 8 am and had my cable box with me to go and exchange it for an HD box, I figured I should be back home at 10 am. At 9 am I was just leaving the pharmacy when I received a call from my mom telling me that the TV had just been delivered, she told me that two guys had brought in the TV, left it in living room and left. I was under the impression that they had to unbox it to check the screen wasn't damaged during shipping and plug it in to see if the TV worked, but that wasn't the case. They just left the box and left, of course I was worry that when I'd open the box, I would find something wrong with it. I arrived home at 10 am with my HD cable box, took the TV out of the box and luckily everything was fine, I plugged it in and it worked perfectly.
Now for my impressions, I'm still in the break-in period, so I have yet to see the full potential of the TV, but I'm impressed with the image quality so far. SD channels are average. I've read that panasonics are one of the worst to handle SD channels and it's true. HD channels look great though, I love the blacks of this TV, and THX mode is awesome. I own a 720p LCD Panasonic TC - 32LX70 TV which I bought about 2-3 years ago for around the same price I bought this TV and I see no difference in HD channels, in fact I think my LCD has a better Image quality, but then again I'm not using the g25 to its full potential yet, so that may change. I love viera cast, I spent the whole day yesterday watching youtube videos and listening to pandora and even watched 2 movies from netflix, I love it love it. As far as the buzz that people write about, I don't hear any buzz whatsoever. I was also skeptical about the glare, my living room is very bright, but this TV handles glare very good. One more complain I should mention is that I hate the speakers on this TV, the speakers on my 32 LCD are much better, I will be adding an entry level home theater system soon, possibly the Onkyo S3300.
I would recommend this TV in a heart beat.
Pros:
Price: I bought it from Amazon for $1033 with a free skype enable camera which I sold for $80 on Ebay * total for the TV= $950
Image Quality: I love it even with contrast down due to break in period.
Viera cast: I love watching youtube, listening to pandora and netflix
Handles glare great.
cons :
speakers
Image quality on SD channels
 Panasonic Plasma Sep 05, 2010
Great TV. Been using it for a few months. Picture quality is awesome. We use a sound system with it so we really don't know about its sound. Works great with our system. Be sure to get the HDMI cable with it. It makes everything sound and look better.

Great quality at a great price. Sep 04, 2010
When ordering a television set, I first decided that I wanted a great picture before any other attribute. The next two factors were cost and size. I wanted to spend reasonable amount of money while not sacrificing image quality or size. I believe I hit a home run with this plasma. A like-size and quality LCD or LED display would cost much more and the general consensus amongst videophiles is that plasma actually offers a better and more natural picture. Plus, 50" is quite huge in my living room. This television will not disappoint. My entire family is impressed with the Netflix streaming through VIERA Cast. I cannot describe how happy I am with this purchase. It is a great deal with the Skype camera too. If you want a great plasma display then look no further than the G25 series from Panasonic.

one of the best HDTV out there, but i would say the only one best considering value for money Sep 02, 2010
I bought this TV from electronics expo under 1000$ incl. tax.
I did a lot of research going back and forth between LCD back-lit and edge-lit TVs and those with 120/240Hz refresh rates and thats when i happened to notice this TV and the reviews mentioning burn in protection and energy efficiency and picture quality of this plasma.
before buying one for me, i got a chance to go to best buy and get one of the 50" G20 series for my in-laws and got a chance to play with that in shop.
I had nothing else to worry about when i saw a good deal for the 50" G25 online after two weeks.
Is been only a week since i bought the TV, but my experience is very good about the picture quality since then.also I am not worried about the power consumption since i happened to see some of the you tube videos showing energy usage from full black to white levels on Panasonic plasma.
Netflix is there since the last software update to version 3.00 and is working like a charm.Regarding the youtube playback,i am not sure if it automatically selects the highest resolution video if multiple resolutions are available.I havn't tried playing media from USB or SD-card storage.Also i have read in some reviews/descriptions online that this TV is capable of recording content to USB storage device.I will update the review as and when i try that.

I had been seeing some reviews mentioning a buzz sound coming from the TV, and what i noticed is that i can hear that when the TV is running more bright screens,like if I set picture mode to 'vivid'.
I personally prefer cool display rather than a very bright one and for me the THX, movie, standard settings seems more appropriate for best viewing experience.Also i don't think the buzzing is a fault in hardware,since any high voltage AC device has the possibility of producing electrical buzzing or humming in the audible range.
I had been looking for and 'am yet to find a blu-ray player to go along with this tv, i saw some panasonic players a good pick, but i think i am paying for the same features that i have on this tv like viera cast.It would have been good if they had some latest model players with just the features one would need when using with this tv, or else .. ohh..yeh i can choose a PS3.. :)

Nice...but Sep 01, 2010
I got the T.V. last night, I had visions of a perfect picture on every channel and I realize this has more to do with the cable company than with the T.V. but it should be known that my 15 year old rear projection has a much better picture than this T.V. has. The HD channels are awesome on the new one along with a couple others, but the bottom line is if I would have known the quality of non HD channels was going to be so much worse than the rear projection T.V. I might have waited a little longer. I was under the impression the picture quality would be "at least" as good as the best rear projection picture. I only bought a new T.V. cause the old one died so I don't feel to bad about my purchase. I think I would have been much more disappointed with a LCD judging by the in store diplays which are all in HD. In my opinion I would not "upgrade" just to keep up with the times. Don't get me wrong, I think this is a nice T.V, I have yet to try a DVD or watch a football game, but might just be 2010 challenged or picky. Just my 2 cents.
