Zenith P60W38
If you are a movie buff and expect theatre-like experience when you watch movies even at home, then Zenith P60W38 will be the best choice. It has crystal clear image for good viewing experience. This TV deserves good rating in many aspects and hence has come under the top ten rating of the plasma TV reviews. Below is a brief description of the intricate details in the P60W38 that makes this plasma stand apart from others.
Zenith has made a revolution by offering 60'' plasma HDTV with superior image clarity, colour and brightness in large format. Generally picture quality of any TV is rated based on its contrast ratio and brightness of the television. The plasma not only has magnificent picture quality but is also great looking. With just 4'' think it is one of the thinnest plasma displays with a contrast ratio of 1000:1 and 1000 dc/m2 brightness. To change the brightness, one need not reset the unit all the time; instead can take advantage of the automatic brightness adjustments. What makes this plasma TV has the best picture quality is its Intelligent Image scaling technology which doesn’t affect any kind of picture. If you are one among many who likes to change modes according to what is viewed, then this plasma has the flexibility for that too. With 2 modes 4:3 and 16:9, you can keep switching the modes with any hassle. There is no doubt that P60W38 will be a treat for movie lovers.
The Intelligent image scaling technology uses the Faroudja/Sage scan converter in order to convert TV video data to PC formats without cropping the images. This plasma TV is not only compatible with DVDs and VCRs but also with electronic devices such as computers, digital broadcasting, multimedia, and traditional video sources. There is a feature that’s called as Auto Picture control which has a strange feature for changing the pictures in three modes which will make the images brighter, black level or the darker.
The remote control that comes along the TV is definitely strange as it has some peculiar features. There is an input selection button which does not help in input selection. Instead one will have to use the video/pc button to change the input selection. The picture buttons are regular which helps us to have control over the modes we watch. While there is such a long description about its picture quality, there is very less that can be said about its audio quality. But Zenith has proved its talent by giving a theatre effect audio with a simple technology. It has five video input and 2 audio input to give the special effects in both video and audio which gives a unique experience for its users. Even after considering all its minor negatives, overall it is worth spending money on this plasma and definitely there will be no regrets.
