Summary: No 24p playback
Comment: Contrary to what the product description states, the 85U does not feature 24p native playback. Only the 800U and 850U do. This is according to the Panasonic website. Almost got fooled myself.

Summary: A Blurry Mess
Comment: I had really high hopes for this TV given all the terrific reviews on this site. The image is fantastic, even stunning until somebody moves or the camera pans then the image becomes very blurry and annoying to watch. In these times of the handheld shakeycam craze this picture is totally unacceptable. Panasonic has taken this set away twice to correct this problem and has replaced 3 boards but it comes back looking no better. From that I must assume that this is the way it's supposed to look. Panasonic gets 4 stars for their service, I cannot fault them at all in that area and the set appears to be well made and easy to set up and operate. I made the mistake of thinking the set needed repairs because so many reviews stated "no motion blur". My 30 day return option to Amazon expired while the set was in the shop. Unlike reviewer Anamika Padavalo, who was able to "plunk down another grand" for a Pioneer I am stuck with this set. I suppose the lesson learned here is not to invest much in these reviews because lets face it we don't know who these screwballs are.

Summary: Great tv!
Comment: I bought this tv over a month ago and I love it. The sound quality is good, the size is great, and the picture is amazing, especially with bluray or hdtv. the SD picture could be better but that's a common problem with hdtvs in general, especially larger ones. Overall its a great tv and i would def recommend.

Summary: Good TV for the money
Comment: This is a nice plasma TV for the price. I bought it to replace a 3-year-old Sharp LCD TV. The new plasma shows much better low-definition images and a lot less motion blur in sporting events. High-definition looks good, too, even though I've only watched 720p feed.

I read some reviews that said this TV shows too much red in images. This is perhaps occasionally noticable but is just a minor issue as far as I'm concerned. Overall color representation is good, though I'm not sure I would label it as great. The TV was hundreds of dollars less than some higher-rated models, so you have to expect some trade-offs.

As far as picture settings go, I used the standard setting. At first, it looked a little darker and grayer than my LCD. But after I got used to it, I liked this setting a lot -- more so than the "cinema" and other pre-programmed picture settings. In general, plasmas don't appear as bright as LCD TVs, so the standard setting is not surprising in that regard.
