Manual of product TH-42PG9B
Editorial note
The Panasonic TH-42PG9B stands out for its exceptional image quality, made possible by its Plasma display technology. The vivid colors and high contrasts provide an immersive visual experience, and its wide viewing angle of 160° allows for comfortable viewing from various spots in the room. Additionally, the high brightness of 1200 cd/m² ensures optimal visibility even in bright environments, which is a considerable advantage. However, this model has some limitations. Its resolution of 852 x 480 pixels is relatively low compared to current standards, which may disappoint when streaming high-definition content. Furthermore, with a weight of 30 kg, its transport and installation can be challenging, potentially requiring the assistance of several people. Plasma technology, while offering beautiful image quality, is also less energy-efficient and prone to screen burn-in issues if static images are displayed for too long. Finally, the audio power of 20 W may not be sufficient for those seeking a rich and immersive sound experience, possibly necessitating the addition of external speakers. In terms of energy consumption, the Panasonic TH-42PG9B excels with a very low standby consumption of 0.8 W, contributing to energy savings. Its modern design in silver color is attractive, although the weight remains a drawback for maneuverability. Overall, this television offers appreciable image quality and adequate connectivity, but it would be wise to consider its limitations before purchase.Score details
