    THIS TV IS SUPERIOR TO YOUR PLASMA but as its INSURANCE paying id go top shelf LG OLED

    In my other posts I make the argument that this is better than the LG but your determined to pay too much as insurance is paying

    +OLED have great blacks
    - OLED O-Organic, like plasma it has a usebuy date
    - OLED Brightness (effects HDR) is half that of LED (all types)
    - OLED dont do white, its a muddy grey blown out unlike LED
    - OLED get screen colour bleed and burn in. Not covered by LG
    - OLED, your paying through the nose!

    This screen has great HDR, brightness, whites and colours. Its motion engine and upscaling is sony class. Its thicker than the newer and crapier side lit models and it has local dimming to boot. Get it, you wont be disappointed after getting it calibrated (you can do it yourself too, youtube and common sence)… The other screen worth looking at is the SAMSUNG QLED or if insurance wont come at that price as its 2/3 OLED territory look a the TCL X2's…

      you must be kidding. my plasma beats this for motion, colours, thx, deep blacks and viewing angles. a cheap lcd cannot compete with plasma. I am asking for an oled since It is the only tech that is close to plasma.

      This email is in regards to a claim I made to replace my tv which broke down. I was informed I would be getting a replacement which would be a 'like for like'.
      The Tv I owned was the best Panasonic Plasma TV released in Asutralia and at the time was rated, tested and reviewed to be the best TV available. I was offered a cheap Panasonic replacement TV by JB HIFI which is a Led TV.

      Led is an inferior technology to Plasma. Plasma Tv's are no longer being made and the only TV technology that can match Plasma especially for deep black levels, viewing angles, motion performance and colour accuracy is OLED. An OLED TV is the only realistic 'like for like' replacement available.
      Below I have included link to reviews and industry expert opinions that reflect these facts.
      If you disagree I would like you to provide some factual technical reasons for doing so since I have spent much time and effort to collect this information.

      I am happy to speak to anyone at JB who is an expert on television technology also.
      I called JB in Brisbane City today and asked the TV salesman Dan what I would replace the last and best Panasonic Plasma with and his opinion for a replacement was

      I also called JB Indooropilly and was told by the salesman an OLED or Series 8 Samsung would be a good choice.

      The only realistic 'like for like' replacement is this TV

      I also have collected more information that I can provide to further prove Plasma's superiority over LED TV and if you require more evidence I am happy to provide more technical and scientifically tested data.

      The VT60 is a powerhouse performer
      http://televisions.reviewed.com/content/panasonic-viera-vt60…

      If you’re a picture quality enthusiast, chances are you're a fan of plasma tech. Though less popular than LCDs, plasma TVs often produce more accurate colors and deeper black levels—two massively important aspects of HDTV picture quality. In case you hadn't noticed, our current Top 5 TVs (out of hundreds) are all plasmas.

      Battle of the 'super plasma' TVs: the Panasonic VT60 versus the Samsung F8500
      https://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2013/07/battle-of-t…

      While it's true that LED LCD TVs seem to get all the attention—and the majority of sales—a quick look at our TV Ratings will show you that plasma TVs often top our Ratings, thanks to very good or excellent picture quality, virtually unlimited viewing angles, and an ability to display fast motion without noticeable blurring. In fact, in our 60-inch and over size category, eight out of the top 10 TVs are plasma models.

      Panasonic TC-PVT60 series review
      https://www.cnet.com/products/panasonic-tc-p55vt60/review/

      The Panasonic VT60 produces the second-best picture quality of any TV we've ever reviewed,
      The VT60 is an excellent plasma with the best dark-room image quality you'll see this year not powered by light-emitting diodes. It boasts industry-leading black levels, illuminating shadow detail, and rich, saturated colors.
      overall the best TV we've ever tested aside from the ZT60. That TV only outperformed the VT60 when we turned up the lights, however; in a demanding, dark-room environment, the two were basically identical.

      Panasonic VT60 Review
      https://referencehometheater.com/review/panasonic-vt60-revie…

      After spending time watching and analyzing the Panasonic VT60 I can say, without hesitation, that anyone after the best display they can get should pick one up now. Black levels are amazing, light output is high enough for almost any situation, and the contrast ratio is jaw dropping.
      The VT60 also has filters to help reduce reflections on the screen.
      Aside from a $9,000 OLED display nothing I have seen in person comes close to the blacks the Panasonic VT60 can produce.
      you need to move up to a 55” OLED screen from Samsung or LG to find similar contrast ratios and picture quality.

      Review: Panasonic VT60
      https://www.flatpanelshd.com/review.php?subaction=showfull&i…

      we think it is fair to still call the VT60 a flagship TV. VT60 offers Panasonic’s most advanced picture systems
      All in all, VT60 is one of the best TVs for gaming, sports and general fast-paced movie/TV watching due to the excellent motion performance.
      And since VT60 takes picture quality to an even higher level we hereby award it with our Reference Award. Not since the Pioneer Kuro have we given out our Reference Award to a TV. VT60 is that good - it has deserved our praise.

      https://www.digitaltrends.com/tv-reviews/panasonic-viera-tc-…

      Simply put, the Panasonic VT60 is one of the most outstanding TV’s ever made.
      Plasma has always been the superior technology where picture quality was concerned
      While watching CBS’ new series, Under the Dome, family members kept remarking at how good the TV show looked compared to the last time we viewed it on an LED-backlit TV.

      OLED Vs Plasma? Updated November 17, 2017
      https://www.lifewire.com/oled-vs-plasma-3276234

      For many serious AV enthusiasts, LCD screen technology just doesn’t cut it. Its inability - using current technologies, anyway - to deliver truly localized lighting means it just can’t give film fans the contrast and black level depths their movie-loving habit craves. So much so that many AV fans are still using full HD plasma TVs, where each pixel can produce its own light, rather than upgrading to 4K UHD LCD TVs.

      RIP Panasonic plasma TVs: Reactions from industry experts
      https://www.cnet.com/news/rip-panasonic-plasma-tvs-reactions…

      Panasonic recently announced it would no longer manufacture plasma televisions. For many experts in the industry who care deeply about TV picture quality, that came as major news. Here are a few of their reactions, in their own words.
      I asked a few industry experts, many of whom I've worked with over the years and all of whom care deeply about picture quality, for their reactions at the exit of these flat-panel televisions from the market. I told them I'd like to publish a sort of eulogy.
      The response was overwhelming.

      I've been recommending Panasonic plasma TVs to friends and family since the mid 2000s. Compared to LED and LCD TVs, plasmas (particularly Panasonic plasmas) simply produce a more realistic-looking, enjoyable image. look forward to see what the future holds for OLED and as yet unimagined technological alternatives, but for now the the TV-buying consumer will suffer for the loss of such a high quality, high value television. RIP, Panasonic PDP.
      — Chris Boylan, editor in chief, Big Picture Big Sound

      I'm disappointed that we, as reviewers, were unable to help keep plasma alive. From outdated notions on burn-in to poor performance on the show floors of big box retailers, it faced an uphill fight for a few years now despite always offering a superior image and value. Now I have to go buy an ST60.
      — Chris Heinonen, senior editor, Secrets of Home Theater

      Achieving the pinnacle of flat panel picture quality turned out to be the kiss of death for plasma, which is most unfortunate since OLED is not quite ready to fill its shoes.
      — Mark Henninger, senior writer, AVS Forum

      Plasma TVs have been the undisputed kings of flat panel picture quality for years.
      — Robert Heron, Heron Fidelity

      I was sad to learn that Panasonic will exit the plasma business, not just because they make great TVs, but also because the plasma engineers seemed to care about accurate and great picture quality. In the short term, it will leave a void in the TV market place, but I feel confident that OLED technology will offer even more impressive picture quality in the years to come.
      — Rasmus Larsen, founder, FlatpanelsHD

      I believe that Panasonic's announcement will be the death knell for plasma altogether. LG and Samsung will probably cease plasma production as well in the next few years, in favor of putting resources into the further development of OLED. It saddens me because once again the superior product category is eclipsed by an inferior technology (LED LCD), which is reminiscent of the Betamax vs. VHS story. My hope is that TV manufacturers will quickly ramp up production of larger OLED screen sizes, and reduce the current stratospheric pricing, so that an even better display technology emerges soon after the demise of plasma.
      — Kevin Miller, co-founder, TweakTV

      When I first heard the rumors that Panasonic would be exiting the plasma business, it brought back the same feelings and emotions I felt when Pioneer announced the end of the legendary Kuros. This may sound silly, but being a serious videophile I felt like I had lost someone very close to me. I understand mass merchant retailers promote LCD displays, but specialty stores like mine recommend plasma to most clients, and A/V enthusiasts prefer plasma. The silver lining is that Samsung is committed to plasma and from what I am told, we'll see new plasma development and products for the next few years.

        My TV is a PLASMA. But no plasma I know of does 4K, let alone HDR and motion and upscaling thats common on even cheap LED tv's. But I like mine and its letting me just a few generations before I spend another cent.

        OLED do no do white but they do very black, blacks and they are half as bright as HDR10 calls for. 800nits in the case of the LG v's 1000/1500nits on Samsungs LED/QLED & they also do white, whites. With local dimming, id buy a LED/QLED over a OLED and yes, I know why they look good in stores. Wish you luck, you should be getting a TV to the value of the old one, take your pick. Their is no right or wrong answer as next year will obsolete everything again with improvements!

        HDR10+ and dolbyvision need 12bit colour gammet (still some years away) and 10,000nits. By 2020 this will be the top of the line, first gen, self lit MicroLED that dont have the OLED pitfalls. Panels will be 120" and up and the rez, 8K! The price will make you cry too at 5-10K

  4K TV checklist

  • HDR
  • good upscaling quality
  • low input lag
  • chroma subsampling 4:4:4
  • ARC
  • decent features and functionalities like auto standby and game mode is optional I guess
  • smart tv or inbuilt chromecast I guess is also optional

    TCLP20/ C20 or QLED X2 series will tick all your boxes, with 3 year warranty.
    P20 line has basic audio
    C20 line has better than good audio
    x2 has better audio too and QLED
