We’ve seen more than a few great televisions come out of Panasonic, and we’ve got another good addition to the mix with the Panasonic Viera TC-P50S30, a monster plasma television that will give you a lot of great reasons to make this the centerpiece of your home theater system.

The Panasonic Viera TC-P50S30 is a fifty inch 1080p plasma television that offers Viera Tools to explain all the television’s functions all in one place, the Viera Image Viewer to let your television act like a giant digital photo frame by way of the included SD card slot, a game mode to reduce lag in game play, a 600Hz refresh rate, the Deep Color system for advanced color reproduction as well as x.v.Color, two ten watt speakers with surround sound, three HDMI ports, a component input, a composite input, two USB ports and a wired internet port.

There’s plenty to like here, sure enough. This handles the current array of peripherals pretty nicely, as well as your older stuff, though not quite as well. The picture is very nice, as you’d expect from a fifty inch 1080p plasma display, and the sound won’t win any awards but it’s still very much worth your time to check this one out.

And the price isn’t even out of line for this one; the folks out at Amazon want $781.85 for one of these, and that’s actually pretty good given what all you’re getting as part of this one.

It may not be the best television you’ll find out there, but if you want a big screen plasma without a big screen price, then you’ll want to check out the Panasonic Viera TC-P50S30 for yourself. You’ll probably like what you see.
