Panasonic Viera VT60 Series
Display
The main reason to own a plasma TV is because you are looking for the very best video quality. The Panasonic Viera VT60 is one of the best-looking TVs on the market. This smart 3D plasma TV has a full 1920 x 1280 HD screen. The contrast ratio is excellent, separating the colors for vibrant video images. Many of the best plasma TVs now include active 3D viewing technology, and this TV is no exception. Even your 3D videos will be in full HD.
Another benefit of plasma TVs over their LED and LCD counterparts is how smooth the picture can look. This plasma TV touts a 3000 focused-field drive. This drive is what sends the electrical pulses to each pixel to make them flash. The faster the drive, the smoother and cleaner the picture will be. This drive is slightly better (by a slim margin) then the competition. This is important because fast-moving video such as live sports and video games, can suffer from motion blurring. The 3000 focused-field drive all but eliminates the motion-blur effect.
Features
The Viera's features are one of the best things about this line of Panasonic TVs. The Panasonic Viera VT60 has them in spades. The built-in Wi-Fi is not standard on all smart TVs – just the best of the best. It is nice because you don't have to connect your TV and router with a long Ethernet cable (an Ethernet port is provided) to access the internet. Just set your TV up on your wireless network and you can be web browsing on your TV in no time. But that's not all. You can use the internet connection to access apps such as Facebook, YouTube and Netflix for your convenience as well. You can do all your internet browsing on your large plasma screen.
This TV is more than just a smart, internet-ready TV. This plasma display is also interactive. You can use the voice interaction feature to navigate your TV's menus. By stating simple voice commands, you can perform operations such as changing the settings on your plasma TV. There is even a text-to-speech function so that your TV can verbalize on-screen content from webpages for you. The Panasonic Viera VT60's facial recognition can recognize different members of your family and automatically log them in to their personalized home screen. This is a timesaver if you all use different apps.
Connections
Home entertainment setups need more than just a plasma TV nowadays. We all have devices that we need to connect to our plasma screens to really immerse ourselves in the home theater experience. Blu-ray players, video game systems, and satellite or cable boxes can all deliver rich HD content now, but with so many different devices, you need a lot of connections to hook them all up. The Viera VT60 has three HDMI inputs that will be your primary connections for most these devices. It also sports both a composite and component port in case you have older, non-HD capable equipment. This plasma TV should have enough features and functionality to complete your home entertainment system.
