Went to HN MV no VT30 on display...

I bought a 50v20 one year ago, that model no longer available now. Thinking of getting a new plasma with equally good quality for my parent. Have been looking at the 50u30k, can't compare them side by side. Can any experts give me some idea to help me make the decision. I do not need the 3d function, or shall I go for the v version?

Added on November 17, 2011, 9:05 pmWow, I bought my v20 at price rm5900. Been offered rm3999 for the 50vt20 just now. .... The price was few times few months ago.... Crazy....

Coz I haggle between a few shops in SS2....

@IceHart, the 50inch U30K was going for 2800 at the same shop. Pls look around for better deals - iamsobloodysick's deal looks good.

be careful of thye hin in seremban. got one forumer complained in a thread here that he was given display TV set and the shop owner did not want to refund or replace with a new set until police report was lodged by the buyer and panasonic was informed of the unscrupulous act by Thye hin.

do a search here and you will find that thread.

I tried using an ext HDD to watch Avatar mkv file which is 20GB and it's still possible. but the PQ was not that smooth. There's a bit of sluggish and missing pixels. So at the end got myself Hi-Media player. solved the problem. My opinion, it's better to get a 3rd party player to watch those high resolution or quality movies. the one built in are for normal files quality so I don't expect too much from it.

yep
precisely....
its 42....
triple checked already.....

Can the VT30 convert 2D to 3D? If yes, does it do a good enough job?

I read that VT20 loses black within months. True?

For me, ST series is a beautiful tv already yet worth for money.

many people are talking more on VT and GT series but the intention to buy is low, very low.

They improved the anti reflective coating to reduce reflections. Its not a matte screen.

That's the price paying using cash or certain credit card such as CIMB (with 6 months repayment 0% interest plan).  Going to get it this week.

This all depends on the merchant, some charges a flat 4% on all 0PP... like HN...

Some dont charge anything for 6 months, 2.5% for 12 months and 4% for 24 months (depends on bank).... like SH...

Dude... i dont mean to be rude, but this just shows that you have not done enuff shopping and asking, or that you have not shopped at the right places...

I have stated, and in fact just recently bought, using Maybank card, at no interest charged for 6months installment plan.... no interest no nothing...

0% for 6 month, 2.5% for 12 months, and 4% for 24 months... for Maybank cards in Sen Heng... in fact they have a whole list of banks and rates....

Harvey Norman charges 4% irregardless of duration of 0PP, irregardless of price... and other shops charge 2% added on the negotiated cost of the product, as this is the rate the bank is charging the shops as merchants, which these arse shops pass back to us consumers....

65 inch wow is vt50 and gt50 here too what about ut50 for 65 inch

as panasonic will no longer produce plasma in 2013 this is the last gen of plasmas
