  • この外人はネトウヨ

  • once they fix the burn out problem with plasma I'm all up for plasma

  • I just wanna congratulate u since ur the only one who talked about the cloudy patches which I notice clearly wen I watch my Samsung c6900 ...Imagine even Samsung maintenance don't know about this problem.......I'm really frustrated about Samsung Tvs even...................

  • I am an authorized Panasonic and Samsung repair Technician and an information junkie. Keep up the good work in providing some very good tools in the possible repair and the information in helping to provide excellant customer education.

  • Brilliant and reassuring as I bought a Panasonic 50" 3D and the 3D Blu-Ray. Just take care when buying 3D movies to ensure they are true 3D and not 2D double image red/blue

  • thump up if u think sony top of tv world

  • Whatever you do, just don't get the LG plasmas... : P

    MASSIVE GLARE PROBLEMS!!!

  • We're into making fun of consumerism with our "still using" channel. With the pretense that using outdated technology is like drug use that needs to be cured. Because that's the message we get from ads and media. Gotta have the latest iPad, iPhone, etc. We're inviting other youtubers (that's you!) will come and share their usage of "outdated" technology...

  • ya panasonic has been #1 for 3d for a few months now. Even for 3d lcds or leds I think sony is still better than samsung. If your going 3d do plasma or sony lcds. If your staying 2d samsung is still king

  • Totally useless comparison. If you want to do a real comparison then compare plasma with another plasma and Lcd with another Lcd.

  • I don't see the point of anybody trying to watch a 3D movie while lying down sideways... : P

    If you're really THAT tired, then maybe you should just go to bed!

  • SO you cannot watch tv without the 3d glasses WTF ? yeah @eeiko321 yeah you're right i guess imma wait before buyin

  • SO you cannot watch tv without the 3d glasses WTF ? yeah @eeiko321 yeah you're right i guess imma wait before buyin this 

  • Wait arent these the morons that voted the iPhone the best cellphone in 2010. But couldn't recommend it?

  • i think if anyone is wanting to buy one...is to WAIT...as you can see its still at the early stages.. and a few problems from both TVs...

    give it several years

  • @eeiko321 even my top of the line sony 3d tv has ghosting and lack of black level problem. my next tv will be panasonic for sure!!! i spent over 3 grand!!!!

  • Defeat of  Korea. Win of Japan.

  • @truffau777 all the LCD tv has ghosting problem and lack of black compare to panasonic tv. even 3500 dollar top of the line sony 3d tv has ghosting and lack of black level. i got a panasonic tv and wow wow wow i never thought panasonic has the best picture quality and black level. i wonder why sony tv is so expensive. just a brand name??

  • @truffau777 ur cool

  • Can u say " Corporate Payoff " ? 

  • LCD and PLASMA look trash compared to LED.. I went to an electronics store on the weekend and LED blew me away.. so much brighters than LCD..

  • @Designandrew

    Yeargh, but look at 'em from an extreme angle or mount 'em up too high and the picture quality will take a hit... : P

    Plasmas still have the advantage when it comes to viewing angles and 3D performance; at least for now they do.

  • i love jpn's TV, car, moto.

  • what a wast of money ,you can buy a standard flat screen dirt cheep, 3d will die like it did years ago every movie that they make will not be in 3d, look how resident evil after life turn out it will have the standard version, an 3d version when it comes out on blu ray standard tvs will always be around ,thats a fact.it will take at lease a couple of years or more before the price go down on 3d tvs to many bugs to work out.

  • The person who buy Samsung is only poor or have only poor knowledge, right?

  • Comment removed

  • @chrishi55 i did not know panasonic has best 3d and overall quality picture.

  • @ackeys2000

    Nope, I wouldn't think so considering how expensive they cost... : P

    Samsung couldn't have been a top-seller for 10 straight years if they were really all that bad.

  • This is wrong comparison.,

    First Look at that screen which are bottom of the moon picture. @ 1:26 Panasonic PDP and @ 1:28 Samsung LCD panel, both are different gamma or brightness value settings. Absolutely different bright settings. This cause to make more brighter at side angle watching LCD than self dot flashing PDP in the dark @1:53

    2nd, @0:54 It's not a Samsung typical 3D glasses, the official original typical glasses has no glass edges. This video might be filmed before official sale.

  • OMFG thees guys are RETARDS!!! I got the silver samsung 55" 3D and its no friking way a LCD its an LED. I don't no what they did in this video but my tv works fine and doesn't do those mistakes they show on the video pretty shure it works fine for 3.000€.

    Thees guys no nothing about TVs.

  • @JHaMEes007 An LED Screen is just the same as an LCD.

    Its just that the LED screen uses LED`s( Light Emmitting Diodes). Instead of fluorcent lights. that was used in traditional LCD`s as a bacround light source.

    An OLED is in otherhand compleatley different. Here each Pixel Consists of a set LED Diodes, One Red, green and blue. these three colours makes out the pixel. and since they create their own light source . there is no need for an lightsource in the back. this is why OLED`s are thin

  • @bluescan92 Lets just say OLED belongs to plasma as it's a successor of that tech. LED is not really a successor but it can be if considered. It's just the backlight thats changed, so we can consider LED to be a Version 2 of LCD.

  • @JHaMEes007

    $ONY prolly bought them out... : P

  • very good black level in Panasonic but i dont see a stars on this plasma !

    WHY ?

  • @BrygadaTM

    Panasonic is a superior TV. Trust me, the stars are there. They just didn't zoom in on the Panasonic like they did on the Samsung. But I have a Panasonic Plasma and I have the same movie they were displaying and I can see the stars just fine.

  • sonys the best, i know 3d tvs were first created by samsung but sony delivers better 3d tvs with better 3d effects

  • no choice without Made in Jpana

  • JUST SAY MY M8 BOUGHT 3D TV. HE WAS WATCHING LIVERPOOL MATCH FUCK ME IT WAS REAL HE FELL A SLEEP WOKE BACK UP IS WALLET WAS NICKED LOL

  • @ryanshepherd78910

    YEARGH!!! >: D

  • U know what?

    U don't need glasses any more!

    Toshiba has made new 3D TV!

    It will on the market on this winter^^(in Japan)

    I don't know in US....

  • @econ221

    It's prolly gonna be EXPENSIVE tho... : P

  • I have done a lot of extensive studying of various 3D TV's and I have seen them in person at Best Buy and in my opinion from what I have seen Panasonic has the market in 3D hands down both in pricing and quality. A+++++

  • who the fuck wants to sit at home wearing them stupid goggles.. good for at the cinema only .

  • @bigjonnyjon 3D sucks anyway, even in the cinema its always like a shoulder poping out or some useless detail. 3D sucks, i live life in 3D i don't need my moives to be 3D its not more real, it just an inconvenience to wear glasses at home or in the cinema. By the way, with 3D tv's you have an option to turn the 3D off.

  • It's easy to compare a 3-D Plasma TV with a 3-D LCD TV. Why don't you test 3-D Plasma TVs with TV Plasma TV, because to compare a LCD TV with a Plasma TV is easy and impartial. LCD TVs, for sample, transmit polarized light. Plasma TVs not.

  • samsung sucks

  • about the angle is a big lie if i stand across the room watching too my samsung led the image is clear and perfect this guy is a panasonic salesman dont believe everything you see and hear.

  • Panasonice plasma are the best for 3D viewing.

  • Panasonice plasma are the best for 3D viewing.

    Thanks.

  • @sharlonwwe1

    AGREED!!! : D

  • Thanks!

  • LCD utilizes polarizing filters, it the 3d goggles you had were also polarized, that explains why the image becomes black with the glasses at a 90 degree angle to the floor.

  • LCD rules

  • look at the views and the maps of video watched. JAPAN. and look at the highest rated comments.

  • It's all about what you can afford. There is no TV out there that is wreath $3800, like the panasinic new line of TV's, only to work for a couple of years without a pricey warranty. So I bought the Samsung 50" c7000 3D tv bundle pack for $1650.00 that came with the, 3D blue ray play, 2 year warranty and 3D glasses kit with two pair of glasses. With that said I'am very happy with the deal I got for the price. So my advice is to look for a bunble package if you are trying to go 3D.

  • Save your money, 3D is a fad,unless you have more money than god then knock yourself out. The industry is moving towards holographic displays within 5 years anyway, maybe sooner!.

  • @theylied1776 fad maybe a few years back, but tech has moved on, i think it's here to stay whether it be a niche market or not.

  • dont get the 3D TV they make your eye hurt after 25 minutes and you get cancer after

  • @weezyfan25

    Lots of people in Japan have cancer already!

  • Korea product is greatest!!!

    Ladies and gentlemen, please buy the Samsung product!!!

  • @mrsandman012 this review is not fair!!! how about samsung plasma vs panasonice plasma??? everybody know that lcd tv is not good compare to plasma for angle view and black on the screen. consumer report should comapare plasma vs plasma and not lcd vs plasma

  • @mrsandman012 consumer report should review plasma vs plasma and not lcd vs plasma because everybody know plasma is better than lcd for angle view and blacks no matter what brand is

  • @ji3200

    Samsung didn't make a 3D Plasma TV at the time. And I think even now they still don't produce a 3D Plasma.

    This video was a comparison of 3D tvs. Not LCD versus Plasma

  • @takuwan199

    Samsung made 3D PDP far early 2years ago. ;-)

    Take a look :

    watch?v=j7ZSNPAknhI

  • panasonic in.... samsung out... because plasma god, led lcd bad..

  • This might be a defective product. A serious ransom will be demanded from this in the United States.

    I think something fear.

  • Samsung pretended that it was 3DTV and sold this 2.5DTV. The lie of the crime that adheres and sells this garbage commodity is large to the consumer in all parts of the world.

  • Did Korean people outstrip Europe and America by scientific general?Korean people who doesn't have the technology of the rocket motor cannot launch even the weather satellite by the technology of the home country.

    How about contents really though this product exists when only the surface is beautifully smoothed over?

  • It just a stupid comparison, PDA TV shold be compared with the same type PDP TV. and it is quite natural that the polarized glass became darker then they are layered in different angle.

  • これただ馬鹿馬鹿しい比較に過ぎない。PDPはおなじPDPとひ­かくするべきだろう。こんな馬鹿な映像つくりやがって日本のテレ­ビなんかがもっと売れるだろうと考えるな。

  • Thank you.

  • Comment removed

  • i think plasma is going to win the 3d war this year!!!

    and the Panasonic has better reviews then the Samsung's PN63C7000.

  • @ninthx007 Correct. Also panny DOES have better PQ. It is Currently top dog in sets right now. Samsung comes in second. BUT, you do get more for the money with samsung.

  • Consumer Reports Evaluators are VERY BIAST!How much Panasonic Corp. paid you guys?

  • honestly whats wrong with regular tv. plus the samsun 50 inch plasma is 3d campatable all you need is the box that actually gives or feeds the tv with 3d. i would know cause i have that tv.

  • THIS IS TOTALLY FAKED TEST COMPARISON.

    1st. That glasses is not the standard Samsung 3D glasses. Samsung standard 3D glass DOES NOT have Edge at bottom of glass. (Everybody can find on Youtube easily)

    2nd. Panasonic Plasma PDP has self brightening dot mechanism. but the LCD is light through away system. but more crisper than PDP.

    3rd. From at 1:22 (Panasonic) and 1:28 (Samsung) both GAMMA BRIGHT values are absolutely DIFFERENT!!

    This is Panasonic one way side dumb test ! Just Panasonic AD.

  • Im an lg fan and I hate samsung. But this video is shit comparing a plasma and an LCD. Also, panasonic?? They are no match for samsung anyways. The big three is lg Sony and samsung and that's it no competition

  • サムスンフユキ

  • こだわりのないアメリカンはサムソンでいいんじゃないか?

  • This movie give many wrong information. All of LCD displays should be showed black screen when using Polarized glasses. It can't be compared with PDP display. This means we never see 3D picture using PDP displays with that kind of glasses. Why they use polarized glasses comparing PDP and LCD? Futhermore, As I know cameras couldn't take 3D picture through 3D glasses because they don't have two eyes and brain. 3D images are synthsized by human brain. I can't believe this movie made by CRs.

  • The performance of this TV is in surprise low.

  • dont yah need to test sony ? SONY RULES !!!

  • 00:59 the lens of the glasses are back wards.try to fucking us real 3d glasses!!moron!!

  • wow looks like i'm making the switch from my beautiful LED LG LCD I bought 2 months ago to this AMAZING Panasonic 3dtv because I saw a samsung and it looked incredible I need to go test that Panasonic. I won't mind paying an extra $500 for quality

  • dont care about product name or brand..

    but plasma should be discontinued right now..

    LED is the future, and is where the research should be spendt.

  • これは欠陥品だろう。アメリカではこれは大変な賠償金要求をされ­ることになるよ。

    なにか恐ろしい感じがする。

    

  • Samusung 3D TV is not3d ! that's 2.5d.

  • ※SAMSUNG recruits a Japanese engineer who can solve this problem hurriedly.

  • only retards buy such trash(ponkotsu) as samsung.

  • For Samsung SPEED and PRICING is everything. Quality,,,forget it. lol

    

  • @midlothianboy LED is not a good choice even upcoming sony LED tv. i found out that samsung tv is perfect but shuttle glass is the problem that cause double image. xpand 103 glass is universal for all brand 3d tv and its the fastest 3d glasses which eliminate double image and give less stress in your eyes

  • 韓国製でも、良い製品ならそっち選ぶよ

  • Is TV of samsung 4D?LOL

  • Made in Japan >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Made in Korea

  • sumsung=made in korea. lol

  • @meatwadathf consumer reports are DUMB!!! ITS NOT THE TV ITS THE SHUTTLE GLASSES THAT MAKE DOUBLE IMAGE. GO BUY XPAND 103 GLASSES. THE FASTEST 3D GLASSES WHICH GIVE YOU LESS STRESS ON YOUR EYES

  • @meatwadathf

    Don't satisfy.

    Sony's LED LCD TV has same problem that reveal CROSS TALK(double 3D image) issue and LCD's brighter than PDP(the Panasonic's) even at side angle at LCD panel.

    You don't know that both LCD and PDP features.

  • viva Panasonic!!

  • i does not need a 3DTV.

  • Samsung's good point is advertising.

    But product is ?

  • wow!! Panasonic is the one!

  • 韩国制造的电视废料只有当列车被取消

  • 海外において、サムスンは自社CMに「富士山、相撲、日本人」と­日本を連想させるものを使って、必死に日本企業のフリをしてるけ­ど(実際に海外では60%以上の人に日本企業だと思われてるんだ­っけ?w)、

    日本じゃ品質が悪い韓国企業ってバレバレだからなw

    企業まで「ザパニーズ」かw

  • sumsung are poor mans TV. 

  • @tutarotutalo Um, Samsung has been a leader in LCD technology since the beginning (First big take on the market was PC monitor LCD's). 3d technology is brand new, no manufacturer is going to have it right yet.

  • Ponkotsu 

  • In Japan,Sumsong is called Ponkotsu.

  • Buy Samsung products?

    NICE JOKE LOL

  • plasma gives so much better image quality than lcd... but uses more power!...

    it's like with great cars?

  • samsung television is not unusual?

  • What a shame when I told the truth?

  • Plasma is better to watch 3D. Samsung has just made PDP 3DTV as well... check that out.

    Just the problem is that 3DTV won't be a big of a hit as long as each one of those watching TV will have to wear that bulky glasses. lots of panasonic supporters from Galapagos Japan here. lol

  • @kleeo83

    Actually,Galapagos won.

  • Plasma is better to watch 3D. Samsung has just made PDP 3DTV as well... check that out.

  • Japanese have never bought Samsung products because of their low quality.

    So,Samsung withdrew from Japan. Korean companies like Samsung just

    only assembles parts imported from Japan with using Japanese technologies.

    Korean companies has no development ability and no original technologies. So,Samsung cannot beat Japanese companies forever.

  • @SamuraiTogo, jost so i get what you say right... Panasonic will always own samsung?

  • pdp vs lcd?

  • @KJKGO161

    3D vs 3D

  • Samsung The best

  • The glasses get darker because of the polarization effect! Wow physics in high school didn't pay of at all!

  • No more SAMSUNG&LG!!.Nomore Korea!!.

  • why dont yall post my comments

  • ComPodView is right, just because the polorization on the glasses doesnt make the image go dark when you tilt you head, doesn't mean the 3d effect will still work. To view something in 3D, you have to be viewing it at the same level that it was formatted in...(almost always horizontal). And you wouldn't wear the glasses to watch 2D programming. Sounds like ConsumerReports is a bunch of dummies.

  • its funny why when you say the plasma has a dark black and the samsung looks behind you looks darker @ 1:21 look at the samsung behind him its darker then the plasma

  • who the hell still makes plasmas lol samsung led are the best

  • LCD technology is old!  Anybody buying a new TV would be foolish to get an LCD when clearly LED technology is far superior.

  • I DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT PLASMA IT DONT LAST LONG I WANT A TV THAT WILL LOOK GOOD FOR MORE THEN 3 YEARS AND YALL NEED TO TEST THE RAL 3d TV THE SAMSUNG LED 3d 9000 NOT A LCD

  • Panasonic beat other brand in this video review

  • Is there a guy buying junk such as samsung?

  • Poor KOREAN made SAMSUNG TV!

    Waste of money.

    Making this kind of poor quality also indicates "Waste of NATURAL RESAUCES"

  • 韓国に関わるとろくな事が無い

  • To see 3D video on your computer, visit : watchin3d . tv !!!

  • That's because the two images have different polarities, dumass..

    Watching 3d while lying is impossible, because 3d vision is recorded horizontally..

    dumass again...

  • The review is not flawed. Pay better attention. They are using the Panasonic glasses on the Panasonic, and Samsung glasses on the Samsungs. It's rather obvious if you watch, these guys are pro's not morons.

    The Panasonic has much deeper blacks and if you notice the Samsung LCD's aren't as black in the video they displayed. A good HD TV should have deep true blacks that are BLACK and NO white parts showing or brightness.

  • @BlazeCustoms Your an idiot the samsung led will beat a plasma anyday in picture quality and in colors. A plasma has really dark picture quality compared to an Led tv that is bright and the picture quality is bright and the picture pops compared to a plasma where its dark and boring.

  • Fentastic report !

    Thanks & Love,

    kris.

  • どうも外人さんの書き込みによれば、両方の画面を見るのにパナソ­ニックの眼鏡を使ってるからこのテストは公平なテストになってい­ないらしい。だから欠陥商品と決め付けるのは早計かと。あと、日­本製も安いよ、アメリカでは。たとえば、アマゾンでパナソニック­のプラズマのs2の42型は$796。日本では価格の最安値で1­0万6千。

  • Knew this was bullshit and glasses would be required to watch 3D.

    And no thanks, I don't want to watch tv wearing those!

  • 偏光板使ってるから90度傾けたらそうなるんじゃないか。

  • Tilting your head sideways doesn't work in 3D anyway because your head has to be upright to seperate the two images correctly for left and right. After all the stereoscopic image is captured horizontally. I found you can tilt your head 45° tops although this would already give you a headache because the vertical parallax is 45° off.

  • No more samsung and korea.

  • 日本人に頼るな!朝鮮が。日本人も一切関わるな!

  • Can someone please explain to me what people mean when they talk about deep black levels pointing on gray plasma TVs. In the part when he says about black levels standing inbetween the two TVs it looks very opposit to what he says. The Samsung LED TV has much deeper black. I don't get it.

  • These people know what quality is. Which are you gonna buy as a product ?

    1, expensive, high quality with responsibility of aftercare.

    2, cheap, low quality with expensive repair fee or repurchase fee.

  • Samsung sucks!

  • This test is seriously flawed, because these 3D glasses are brand specific and aren't compatible with other brands. Why? Because 3D glasses have two way communication with the TV set to open and close shutters. I am amazed that you could see anything from Samsung 3D TV with incompatible Panasonic's glasses.

  • @internationalpirate I agree, 3dtvs are already standardized which means that any 3d blu ray player can play on any 3d tv but whats not standardized is the 3d glasses that company use, maybe the reason why the samsung on their report has cross talk.

  • @internationalpirate Pls look carefully. They use Samsung glasses for Samsung TV and Panasonic glassess for Panasonic TV!!

  • @internationalpirate How can you excuse that the Samsung one has a patchy screen where is supposed to be dark? It's a proof of sloppy defect product.

  • サムスンなんてゴミ以下

  • I watched samsung led 3d tv with glasses at shopping mall yesterday. It was amazing. I couldn't find any defect like pointing out in this video.

  • LCD 3D vs PDP 3D.

    Are you crazy? kidding me?

  • LCD 3D vs PDP 3D.

    Are you crazy? kidding me?

  • 멍청한 비교..lcd vs pdp

  • Actually, it is not fair, why did they compare LCD & PDP? View Angle is different from LCD & PDP. PDP can be seen by up & down side , but LCD can be seen by left/ right side even though LCD supports Wide View Angle. If they check Sony 3D LCD TV , it would be same as Samsung. I am Korean , I don't like Samsung . but this test is not fair.

  • Panasonic 3DTV is amazing!

  • also... they are using Panasonic 3D glasses... what a waste of time

  • wow people... did u guys even watch the video? this is LCD 3D TV vs PDP 3D TV, you cant really judge which product or which brand is better by comparing a different TV technology. Show me PDP 3D vs PDP 3D then we'll talk.

  • I agree the opinion of this video.

    I felt same one when saw it at KOEX (KOREA)

    & PANASONIC CENTER (JAPAN).

  • Exactly, penny-wise and pound-foolish.

  • I can't believe that Samsung released defective products like that.

    I'm sure there's something wrong with this test.

    They seems not to use the 3D glasses for Samsung TV.

    You can check out on Samsung website.

  • Panasonic PDP VS Samsung LCD Compared to an idiot

  • Samsung(made in korea) is for the exclusive use of the poor person.

  • Panasonic PDP  VS Samsung LCD

    Compared to an idiot

  • Panasonic PDP VS Samsung LCD

    Compared to an idiot

  • 何故大嫌いな日本人に頼ろうとする?独自で開発しろよ、韓国人は­世界一優秀なんだろ?

    (大笑い)

  • Samsung always try to focus on Design to attract customers with huge media budget spending, but when it comes to technology definitely its Panasonic as a Japanese brand is the best technology ever. Who know about technology, can easily judge.

    Just for your information.

    Japanese brands are honest in their advertisement, not like Korean.

    In the next month you will see an add for Samsung saying the best 3D Picture Quality Ever hehehe

  • サムスンは現在、この問題点を改善できる日本人技術者を募集中で­す

  • @emperorbanzai THIS IS NOT A FAIR REVIEW. THEY SUPPOSE TO REVIEW PLASMA VS PLASMA NOT LED VS PLASMA. EVEN SONY HAVE PROBLEM WITH LED TV. SAMSUNG PLASMA VS PANASONIC PLASMA IS THE RIGHT COMPARISON REVIEW!!!

  • Using Panasonic glasses on a Samsung seems biased.

  • Japanese Products: High Quality, High Price

    Korean Products : Low Quality, Low Price

  • Does Samsung market a poor trial product?

  • I am not got from the satisfaction if inferior for performance even if I buy a cheap thing.
