Panasonic TX-L42ET5 review 2012

The Panasonic LX-L42ET5 is part of the brand's new ET5 range of 'affordable' 3D LED TVs which uses Passive rather than Active Shutter.Those keen to jump aboard the streaming TV bandwagon will find the ET5 a comfortable set of wheels. Take the set online integrated Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet and you’ll soon have access to Netflix, Acetrax, BBC iPlayer, BBC News, YouTube, Fetch TV and Dailymotion, amongst other services.Panasonic's L42ET5 makes another compelling case for passive 3D technology; and is a pretty decent 2D performer too.The set will also socialise via Skype, Picasa, Facebook and Twitter (the latter while you watch the box), there’s even an HTML5 browser for basic web wandering. Those that still have spare time can download games from the connected apps store (bizarrely, priced in Euros).The TV’s resident USB media player handles most everything without quibble. All popular AV file formats play from USB, including FLAC and MKV. Across a network from a NAS, MKV support goes AWOL though.panasonic tv, panasonic tx, 2012 panasonic tx-l42et5, panasonic tv reviews, tx panasonic, panasonic 3d tv, panasonic 3d, panasonic reviews.
