    "try watching a darker movie."

    by brokenhorse on February 28, 2005

    Pros: Looks good on a wall

    Cons: Poor image quality with dark scenes. Posterization common with skin tones.

    Summary: Do you remember watching MPGs on a cheap computer monitor with a cheap video card? Well this is how the SP-P4231 performs if you watch anything with semi dark scenes. Movies like the MAtrix and the Terminator look absolutely horrible on this display.
    Sure this display performs great on bright evenly lit movies but how many movies are like that?

    Horrible with medium lit to dark scenes.

    Any mid tones with complex color (like faces!) look like "clay" or posterized.

    I hope the people who gave this plasma a good review come back and give it a second opinion after having it at home for a while.
