Stereoscopic 3D television - Some thoughts

Sunday Jun 13 2010

A month or so ago me and my wife decided it was time to demote our aging Samsung 32'' LCD to the bedroom and buy a bigger and better television for the living room. Since we're a family of gamers and movie watchers I decided it was ok to go for something really good. After a period of research I decided that the Panasonic TC-P50VT25 plasma TV was the best TV I could buy without breaking the bank completely. Don't get me wrong, the VT25 series is still not cheap but compared to a lot of other large screen TVs it's priced pretty competitively. To add to that this TV pretty much has the best picture money can buy at the moment. The only thing that may or may not be better is the discontinued Pioneer Elite KURO line. Needless to say, this TV rocks. It beats the hell out of any same size LCD TV on the market in terms of picture quality and costs a LOT less too.

But... this post is not a Panasonic TC-P50VT25 review. There's enough raving reviews of this TV on the net already. Instead I'm going to talk about the stereoscopic 3D feature this and some other TVs currently on the market offer. It's important to note that I did not buy this TV because it has 3D. I consider the 3D a (very welcome) bonus to a set that's overall extremely good. Let's take a look. First I will discuss my 3D gaming experiences so far, then I'll take a look at 3D television and finally I'll summarize the good and the bad and take a look at the future of all this.
