Summary: Adrian Justins finds that, with a bit of patient tweaking, this no-frills, 3D-capable plasma acquits itself well

Conclusion: Aesthetic failings aside, the P42ST30B can reward you with an impressive viewing experience – but with similar-sized 3D models from LG and Samsung coming in a few hundred pounds cheaper, it might struggle to find buyers

Pro : Solid picture performance; lack of artefacts with IFC; Viera Connect portal

Cons : Drab styling; Freeview EPG issues; 3D specs not supplied

Summary: Whether or not you've been impressed by 3D enough to have it at home, would you seriously consider buying a big, expensive TV that couldn't flirt with the third dimension at all?

Conclusion: A good TV for 2D, but the lack of included glasses and lack of HD detail means it's not perfect. But overall, this is a likeable screen that gets our seal of approval

Pro : Freeview HD tuner, great with SD as well as HD, colour, contrast

Cons : No home networking or Freesat HD tuner, lacks ultimate hi-def detail, no 3D glasses included

Summary: If you don?t need media streaming features or a Freesat tuner, then the Panasonic TX-P46ST30 is an excellent alternative to Panasonic's GT30, as it delivers much the same picture quality, yet costs around ?300 less.

Conclusion: The TX-P46ST30B may not have the most attractive design or the flashiest menu system, but it delivers the goods when it comes to picture quality with both 2D and 3D sources.

Pro : Excellent contrast and black levels ; Warm, cinematic colours ; Excellent 3D pictures ; Impressive Internet features

Cons : Lacks media streaming support ; 3D glasses are pricey

Summary: The Panasonic TX-P50ST30b seems like a good deal for a 50-inch 3D HDTV, and it includes excellent wireless networking and Freeview capabilities, but the audio and video quality are both lacking.

Conclusion: Panasonic got a lot right when it designed the TX-P50ST30b. Unfortunately, the image quality wasn't one of those things. The picture isn't awful, but it should be better.
