Hitachi P50XR01 review


Summary: : A merely solid performer, but its price and built-in hard disk recording help it stand out from the crowd... Read the full review
Verdict: On the downside, there's no doubt that Hitachi is not currently an A-lister when it comes to plasma picture quality.

Pros: ; Good price; good recording quality; features galore; unusually clean pictures; fine with standard definition as well as high definition
Cons: ; Black levels could be better; colours aren't always very natural
