Passive 3D TVs have a lot going for them: well balanced images, excellent 3D rendering, and more. But the IPS panel's demons inevitably catch up with the Viera TX-L55ET5B, making for a less responsive TV with contrast low enough to earn only three stars f...

If there's one word that sums up Panasonic's 2012 so far, it's "pragmatic". For the Japanese brand has not only given LCD technology as much weight in its latest range as plasma, it has also set aside its previous stridently-voiced distaste for passive 3D...

For most of your viewing time, the Panasonic L32ET5 is a very enjoyable TV. It's especially well suited to relatively casual, bright-room viewing conditions - precisely the sort of situation, in other words, that a 32in TV is most likely to find itself in...

The 32in Panasonic L32ET5 is one of the smaller smart TVs available, but it does look stylish – it has a fairly wide bezel which is see-through at the edges. It's well equipped with four HDMI ports and three USB sockets, including one for recording pro...

This 32in set hails from Panasonic's only range of passive 3D TVs, the ET5 series. This technology enables you and the family to experience 3D at a much lower cost than an active 3D TV, thanks to the cheaper glasses – four pairs of which are supplied in t...

The TX-L32ET5 is an impressive 32in TV. Its passive 3D pictures are suitably immersive, with the smaller screen lessening some of passive 3D's inherent flaws. 2D movies boast terrific depth and solidity, coupled with blur-free motion, razor-sharp detail...

Firmly in the Smart VIERA LED stable, you'd be forgiven for thinking that the Japanese manufacturer's marrying of VIERA Connect, 3D and DLNA home networking make this a classic Panasonic LCD TV. It might shock you to know that the king of plasma TVs h...

Do you want 3D? Many don't, it seems, and that could be something to do with the high prices of TVs and especially 3D glasses. Panasonic - inventor of the pricey though often awesome Active Shutter 3D system has rather predictably taken commercial realiti...

It might lack star quality, but this versatile 37-incher brings 3D - and much more besides - within a tempting package. VIERA Connect is fast becoming our favourite smart TV hub, and while regular TV channels can look ropey and the viewing angle is narro...

From day one Panasonic has been the most vocal champion of the 'active' 3D display system, rightly arguing that it delivers the best possible picture quality by sending full 1080p frames to each eye. The company has even gone as far as pooh-poohing LG's r...
Overall, if you're after an immersive home cinema experience but not necessarily the ultimate picture quality, then the TX-L37ET5B is a terrific way to get into 3D on a budget. Its use of passive technology means you get all the glasses you need in the...

Easy 3D may not be able to match the ultimate detail of active shutter variants, but who cares? It's err, easier to live with and, let's face it, 3D as a format is only ever going to make an occasional appearance in the living room. Who wants to shell-out...

For this review we tested the 50in model in the ET5B range, but it's also available in 32in (TX-L32ET5B), 37in (TX-L37ET5B), 42in (TX-L47ET5B) and 55in (TX-L55ET5B) screen sizes. All models have identical specifications except for their dimensions and...

It's good to see a 42-inch Freeview HD 3D TV that's unapologetically populist. Embracing a Primark aesthetic (affordable but on trend) and keeping a lid on advanced panel tech, it's priced to appeal to everyone looking for a big brand thinscreen with net-...

Unlike Samsung's resolute pursuit of active-shutter 3D glasses technology, more 'neutral' TV makers like Panasonic have the luxury of embracing both passive and active 3D technologies if they choose to. Armed with a Full-HD display, the new Viera ET5S LCD...

Panasonic ET5 review We have received the first TV from Panasonic's 2012 TV line-up. It is called ET5 and is a mid-range model. ET5 is also the first passive 3D model from Panasonic, and furthermore offers Edge LED, 300/360 Hz backlight scanning and Panas...
Panasonic has extended their Smart TV platform to cheaper TVs in 2012. ET5 is powered by a single-core processor and is fast enough for most things but the Smart TV platform is not very compelling. Too few and too many irrelevant apps, and bad video strea...
