Love your statement and I am a non believer of TV calibration and stick to default options to ensure warranty.

Irrespective of color, a good storyline, directing and acting are core essentials of a good movie and trust a FHD Panasonic Plasma of 2010 generations (and beyond) should do a good job in displaying FHD qualities.
No fuss on those so call best / infinite Black Level as many of us do not watch TV with lights switch off (or in a dark room) to avoid eyes fatigue; do understand young people love this habit (not referring to those on projector).

Just got my v20.

can someone tell me the setting that recommended to use during breaking period??

my first plasma

You can check my setting here, http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1825421
I took me around 9days to do the controlled break-in

Actually i did not opt any 3D stuffs as I purchase 50VT20 with Panasonic HT System. when they arrived i was suprised that the TV itself come together with 1free 3D glasses

may plan to by 3D player in future but not that soon

I had trouble figuring out how to slow down the motion as it looks everything running super fast. only once I disable Intelligence Frame Creation option, I notice difference and prefer this mode turn off..

Should I go for 3 years extended warranty for VT20?

Depend on budget... i was told VT20 imported from japan and the quality is better. Since this is my first Panasonic plasma tv, took extended warranty.

How much is the extended warranty?

330 for another 3years warranty..so total = 5 years

wow, is cheap. I was quoted RM800 for 3 more years. where can I get RM330?

i think it standard..maybe u can try ask another Panny dealer.

or try call Panasonic customer care line or refer here

Penang still got stock on 42v20k. I wonder if its still a good buy at RM2,500 seeing a many new 3D display.

Saw Samsung 51" 3D being offered at RM4500.

Had the 50vt20a for like a week already, very impressed with it so far. Anyone knows where can I get the extra 3D glasses and how much?

vt20a is Oz model

Guys,

I just purchased a brand new L42U29K from carrefour. But when I check the on duration and turn on count, it just disappointed me. It read 2431 and count 334. Is it suppose to be like this? Or should i return back the unit to Carefour? Any idea on how i should deal with this?

Seem like already used. Possible is display unit. Have their told you this unit is used/display unit? If not, definitely can send back to them for exchange new unit. Prove to their this is used unit.

Did Carrefour offer it at a much cheaper price than market and upfront tell you that it's a used unit? If not, then I think you should return it.

well, the price is quite attractive compare to other supermarket, does rm1729 sound good or to good to be true? its 42 inch FHD LCD TV. pls advice

Added on April 10, 2011, 7:52 pmbut, carrefour didnt tell anything about the unit condition. the salesperson didnt mention anything about the unit condition. Just assuming it suppose to be a brand new from store. Just hoping that i can exchange it under 7 day return policy. if else, i duno, maybe amuk.

It's slightly cheaper but not that much. I heard it's about RM2,000+ elsewhere. Anyway, your set with 2,400+ hours is close to probably one year usage. Definitely, you should return it and get a new unit.

At 2000+ hours, tell them it should be sold at 1/2 price. Either they sell you at that price or you write to newspaper saying you are sold used goods as brand new. A win-win situation.
