Panasonic VIERA G1 TC-L37G1 37-Inch LCD HDTV Review from Customer. My First, Panasonic VIERA G1 Series TC-L37G1 37-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV.

After researching the market for about a month I bought this product on 04/28/09 and it was delivered within 5 days. Overall I’m very satisfied with this product and can highly recommend it.

Installation and set up

Very easy within 20 minutes, excellent documentation and simple to understand. I own a Denon AV3805 and DVD 2910 and when you go through those manuals, it is painful!

The auto set up for digital and analog channels worked very well however it takes about 10 minutes to go through. The set up is pretty straight forward and the remote is easy to use with an ergonomic design. Feels solid and the numbers are bigger, so people can see them without glasses! Batteries for the remote are included.

Product features, picture and sound

The 1080p LCD HDTV has 3 HDMI connections and those work flawlessly. The SD card reader is a nice addition and works well too. The TV also offers component, video and optical connections. For surround sound I use my Denon receiver via a optical cable. The HD channels with the surround sound are an experience!

My main reason for chosing the G1 verses the S1 was the fact that this model comes with 120Hz, a better contrast ratio 20000:1, which produces deep black levels and the picture quality is superb. When you watch ABC in HD the digital quality is outstanding.

The sound of the speakers is pretty good, however in digital mode I use my AV.

The colors are more vibrant and natural compared to my old Panasonic TH32LX70. The contrast is excellent and the gray scale seems accurate and sport scenes are crisp.

While watching I’m about 8-9 feet away and that is a good distance for a 37″ TV.

When connecting my Mac via a HDMI cable the screen is like a Apple display, crisp and sharp and much better compared to my old TV.

Panasonic has a good track record in terms of quality and reliability, my old TV has now 4 years of defect free performance , I hope that this one will be the same.

Hope this helps and if you are looking for a new or replacement HDTV give this one a closer look.

Have fun.
