The Bottom Line	Deep black levels and a new antiglare screen make the 50-inch TH-50PX77U one of the top choices among plasma HDTVs.	With the accuracy of its THX mode and great black-level performance, the Panasonic TH-50PZ800U is one of the best-performing HDTVs available.	Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level plasma TVs.	Accurate color helps set apart the excellent picture quality of the Samsung PN50A550 50-inch plasma TV.	CNET did not review the Panasonic TH-50PX80U, but we did review the smaller model in the series.
