Panasonic TX-L26X10B HD Ready LCD Television Review
TX-L26X10B - 26-inch Wide Viewing Angle HD Ready LCD TV from Panasonic
Panasonic TX-L26X10B is not special in any particular way. All that can be said about it is that, it is just another 26” LCD TV for your second room. It boasts of having a good design and quality built. In terms of features, it lacks most of those found in the other high end Panasonic models. Yet, it has got some very strong selling points to describe on.
Sleek and stylish:
As we mentioned in the introduction, it has a very attractive, sleek look. It has a thin piano black glossy bezel with a swivel stand. The TX-L26X10B possesses a 26-inch screen. Having a wide angle of 178 degrees, it ensures clear images even when viewed from any angle. The backlight of this LCD TV has wide transmission aperture that enhances the contrast between the light and dark. This also seems to be improving the motion range response. This 26” display has an aspect ratio of 16:9 and contrast ratio of 10,000:1.
Feature list:
Some of the features that are supported by Panasonic TX-L26X10B 26-inch Widescreen HD Ready LCD TV include Intelligent Scene Controller, 24p Playback, 3D Colour Management, Sub Pixel Control, Picture Overscan, Video Noise Reduction, 3D Comb Filter, V-Audio Surround, EPG, Game Mode, Q-Link and child lock.
24p playback:
For a thrilling cinema feeling at home, you need more than just brilliant colours and the highest contrast possible, such as the cinema projector, the television should also be able to show films at their original frame rate of 24 pictures per second. This facility is available in Panasonic TX-L26X10B LCD TV as it supports 24p playback.
The VIERA LINK technology:
Panasonic TX-L26X10B supports the Viera link technology that aids you with the interconnected operation of various AV devices. This can be done using the given VIERA remote control. These devices must be interconnected using HDMI cable. The performance of the viera link has been further enhanced with the help of the Lumix camera. This camera has got an HDMI output terminal to viera. Again, the viera remote control can be used to enjoy the playback of images on the camera.
SD card slot:
The SD card slot on Panasonic TX-L26X10B 26″ LCD Television makes it easy for you to view photos. With the help of this slot, you can enjoy your pictures on big screen as soon as you take them. The TX-L26X10B also allows you to choose from three kinds of background music.
V-audio surround sound technology:
The V-audio surround sound technology gives a depth sound image effect by early reflection data based on actual room measurement, that is generated from digital signal processor. It is more than adequate for day to day television watching. This technology deals more than what is expected with some of the challenging sound tracks. The audio quality is far better than that of most of the other similarly sized LCD Tvs.
Audio and video quality:
The picture quality is quite impressive. The freeview broadcasts are very clear. The HD quality pictures are sharp, but cannot be said to be completely free from motion judders. The black levels are truly excellent, considering the price of this LCD TV. By saying so, we mean, it is not faultless, yet good. Some of the darker areas in the picture suffer from slightly greyed-out look.
An environment friendly product:
As we had mentioned in many of our Panasonic product reviews, they are eco friendly people. They focus on efforts to reduce these CO2 emissions as far as possible already during the product development phase. To improve on the environmental impact of power consumption, Panasonic has employed the Eco Mode in its TX-L26X10B LCD TV. By activating the Eco Mode, a photo sensor measures the ambient light conditions of the room and the picture settings adjust automatically. As a result, the TV uses less power in darkly-lit conditions without any compromise of the picture quality. Intelligent functions ensure your TV only uses as much energy as it needs.
Panasonic TX-L26X10B Widescreen LCD TV is protected by a front sheet of glass resistant to impacts of up to four joules. This is particularly reassuring for families with small children who may otherwise inadvertently damage the screen when playing.
Warranty:
Panasonic TX-L26X10B comes with one year limited warranty.
Verdict:
Though Panasonic TX-L26X10B is not the cheapest of the latest 26” LCD TVs around in the market, the extra cash that you chip in certainly gives that value. Elegant design, good picture and audio quality. The TX-L26X10B is a good choice for your second room.
