you quote as though the panny gives a worse image than even a LCD screen until like cannot enjoy it's very good PQ..   

Not saying that the Panny is worst.  Just responding to the Bladerunner qoute.

mine is rf-82,but im pair up with 10d.
if u looking for average performance,yes it is..
but it cant go below 20db i think.

still cannot understand why the 50S inch in Msia is nearly double the 42S inch. Now that the 42 inch is below RM2999, by right, the 50 inch should be RM3999 if one follows other countries pricing gap between the 42 and 50 models.

If this is 4k, our elites will put them in lawn...

Looks like the 50S10 is not getting the buzz like the 50X10.  Is it because the 50S10 is not that good?  Even the new Samsung plasma seems to out perform the pana plasma. 

Did Pana cut too much corner on the newer plasma?  Most reviewer say the picture on the new full hd plasma from pana looks soft and less details as compare to the some other better tv.  Colors is off too and screen reflection is very bad.  Some claims the screen looks dull and dim as compare to lcd.

What do you guys think?

50incher still high priced hor..

KRP-500 kuro only rm6k in US.. so S10 50incher "should ideally be" 4+ range as you suggested.. 

wah, amazing how cheap the KRP is in the US. And average US person earns so much that he can buy it with just 2 weeks pay.

50 inch in Malaysia need to go down further but I suspect that the manufacturers pakat to keep it above RM5000. And this would probably go on for few more years.

The more people request for these kinds of things, the more options they seem to remove from the displays to keep the price low. Eg, CATS option from Malaysia models of Panasonic.

Edit: I suppose the Panny owners can do something abt it. Maybe complaining to the Panny customer support on how we seem to get different specs for the same price in the US. But then again, the CS would just say too bad to u. Thats CS in Malaysia...

@ar188

I am coming from an LCD (Sony/Samsung) so my eyes are used to the vibrant colors of the Samsung plasma.

That's why looking at the Panny S10 I just dont feel it has the punch and the depth picture wise....that is my personal preference

Not suitable for PC ?
