PANASONIC TX-P42UT50B 42" PLASMA 3D SMART TV with two pairs of actiive 3D geggs £449.00 at Comet

Ash1984found 7 months, 3 weeks ago

I just took the plunge an bought this rather nice telly today. The cheapest I could find is £499 from online retailers.

I managed to haggle a bloke in Comet down to 489.99 so agreed the purchase, when he ran it through the till it came up 449.99 so thats all I paid! Also Panasonic are running a promotion which this telly is a part of where you can claim two free pairs of active 3D glasses which is not to be sniffed at.

Also try finding any 42" Plasma that is full 1080p with Smart functionality, Sd card and Usb slots, hd freeview with recording capability, 3d capable and able to convert 2D signals to pretty impressive 3D output for this money.

I must say the picture quality is amazing, only the reflective screen lets the side down.

Could be a nation wide pricing error or just my store so please go easy on me.

All the best

Ash

This is the 2012 basic model it only has 2 HDMI SOCKETS. However, its a great tv with fantastic picture, but, the specs are the lowest in the range and it does have a glaring screen in daylight.

Yep, sorry only 2 HDMI's, edited.

Any confirmation of this new price?

Regardless of 2 hdmi, this is a very good price imho! Heat added.

Ehm, just realised there is no independent confirmation yet so will hold off voting until then :(

Now when is Panasonic going to drop the price of their 50 inchers to the level seen by the big sell off of the G30B's - i kick myself for missing that one!

Bought this today for £550 but got the 5 year warranty. Am I correct that Comet can't validate this 5 year warranty? I thought it was £499 in Comet so opted for extended warranty for the £50. I know TVs should be covered for 5 years but it's easier having a valid warranty if something was to go wrong.

Brought this on the Debenhams plus deal for £499 with Quidco. I then applied for free glasses. The free glasses are NOT the full released recharging version worth £60 - 70 each they appear to have a screw so they might take a watch style battery.

The TV is amazing, watching kingdom of plants in 3D is amazing, clour and clarity are brilliant. It will need fiddling with a little to get the most out of it but I love this TV, DLNA is a massive plus.

For anyone complaining about 2 HDMI, this is Panasonic's entry Full HD 3D Plasma so you aren't going to get loads of stuff, i'd much rather have network / internet over a couple more HDMI ports.

So is this nationwide does anyone know? And only in store?

Buy it with Currys vouchers bought at Morrisons. This will give you vouchers for 45p off per litre of fuel, which will save you an extra £36 on the average full tank!

Reserved one last night online from Comet and phoned them today to confirm the price and still £499 so will pass on this one.

Anyone apart from 'Ash1984' actually got one for £449?

Ah this makes sense now.

You bought the P42XT50B and when you search for this on the comet website it comes up with P42UT50B which is £499.

The link and model are incorrect in your post. This is the correct link: http://www.comet.co.uk/p/Plasma-TVs/buy-PANASONIC-TX-P42XT50B-Plasma-TV/791032

which shows the TV at £449 and out of stock.

Main differences between the 2 sets are UT is 1080p not 720p, UT has dual core processer and can also be wall mountable.

Think this has cleared it up.
