G10 has a different AR coating. G10 uses a neo PDP module. These are the reasons why the price is different.

I wonder what is the cheapest price got G10 now.. 2X price justification is important to people who actually see the difference. NeoPDPs can actually do brighter whites. And with the AR deeper blacks. On actual content better contrast ratio. Is this important to the OP? Or does it justify the 2X price? I cannot say, it depends on individual. Same question I had to answer myself when I bought a 8G Kuro when compared to a 11G Panasonic before. Is it worth 2X the price? It depends on the individual. Also one key note is gradiations of white/colour...6144 vs 5120. This reduces chances of posterization/banding. Does it matter to the OP? Not sure...

RM6k, but i think G10K is the best performance compare to other 42" product around RM6K right? same as RM4k, S10K is the best??? This post has been edited by vinorgouki: Feb 3 2010, 03:43 PM

Neo-PDPs can theoretically do brighter window-ed whites before the APL kicks in. However, I have never calibrated a G10 so I cannot comment accurately. Best is difficult to ascertain. If u like it, go for it. Compare it with others in the price range and view actual contents of what u will view at home. See which one u like best.

See which one u like best. it seems important to me. coz i ever watch bluray on Panasonic Plasma 42X10K, even on Sharp LED 40" 700M. when the scene gone dark, it appear many small dot. whole scr look blur, i don like that. will G10K can do that?

Are u talking about noise in the dark areas? Panasonic plasmas screens will have that look in the dark areas. G10 will also have that. In that aspect I believe Sammy plasmas and LCDs are better. LED backlit LCDs shd be better in showing that, however, maybe there is a light glow. Also what is ur viewing distance?

Viewing distance? do u means how far i c from the tv? its near, 3-4m like tat. if i c near, more clear. most tv like tat? This post has been edited by vinorgouki: Feb 3 2010, 04:07 PM

QUOTE G20 Series
The VIERA G20 series includes the TC-P54G20, a 54-inch class HDTV (54” measured diagonally) and the TC-P50G20, a 50-inch class HDTV (49.9” measured diagonally). Like the G25, the G20 series features improved VIERA CAST functionality, video call capability2, THX certification and THX Movie Mode, and VIERA Image Viewer for playing back digital still JPEG images and AVCHD videos recorded on an SD Memory Card and VIERA Link for improved networking. In addition to allowing the user to utilize all VIERA Link capable components with a single remote, the G20 HDTVs feature a PC input and two USB ports, allowing for Wireless LAN Adaptor connectivity and the addition of a keyboard. The NeoPDP design of the G20 series provides 1080p resolution, Infinite Black display with 5,000,000:1 native contrast, full-time 1080 TV lines of moving picture resolution, 600Hz Sub-field Drive and like all Panasonic 2010 VIERA HDTVs, contains no lead or mercury and has a long panel life – up to 100,000 hours before achieving half brightness. Source : http://www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/store...062010102307903I'm hoping the 54" to have a decent price (<RM 8K) when it gets released in Malaysia. Time to upgrade my 42" Panny PY800.

Time to upgrade my 42" Panny PY800. U never know...Anything is possible...I doubt it but anything is possible. I believe the G and V series are the upper end models. The V will be definately a premium, lets see how the G is priced. I would expect prices to start in the same region as where they started last year maybe 10% lower. Then it will drop.
