Strengths: Best picture quality. Black levels and contrast. Connectivity.

Weaknesses: Sensitivity of remote.

Summary: The Pioneer PDP-6010FD is one of the most amazing flat panel TVs available. The only worthy comparisons are other Pioneer Kuro TVs. I would recommend purchasing one of these to anyone in the market for a flat panel TV. The most important feature in a TV is picture quality. This is where the Pioneer excels. The contrast is the best available in a flat panel TV. When comparing this TV next to others, black images appear grey on the other TVs compared to the darkness of this set. Although the settings out of the box were not bad, the picture looks better after calibrating it. The colors look natural when properly adjusted. Viewing Blu-ray movies on the TV allows it show off the amazing picture. High definition content in general looks very good on the TV. Standard content, while no comparison to HD, looks good if you have a good source. Grainy videos look even worse when blown up on this TV. The picture looks good from any angle. The tuner works well and was able to pull in all the HD channels I expected to get. The built in TV Guide is a nice bonus, if you do not have satellite. Picture in Picture cannot pull both signals from the antenna input, limiting its usefulness. While the screen modes work for most cases, there is no way to zoom picture when a digital signal sends 16x9 image in a 4x3 box. The full or stretch mode works well but I prefer keeping the normal aspect ratio. The remote sometimes has to be pointed directly at the sensor for it to pickup commands. This is even more of a problem when using universal remotes. The Pioneer PDP-6010FD makes TV viewing better. HD looks even greater on this TV. I would recommend this TV to anyone in the market or as an upgrade to older HDTVs.

Strengths: Every Input and Output possible, Exceptional Color, Easy Set up, Makes Standard signal much better than I expected

Weaknesses: So far... NONE!

Summary: This Plasma display is without a doubt, the best on the market! I did 6 months of research on every LCDTV and Plasma display imaginable, before I came to the conclusion on this TV. The Black level is truely unmatched which makes the colors just "Pop" off the screen. Factory settings are great, but the fine tuning using the "ProAdjust" allows the user to adjust the picture to cater to any needs you may have. I normally would not write a review, but this Plasma Display is the Undisputed Champion, and I wanted to share that with all who are the market for a TV.

Strengths: This HDTV Has excellent color, Lots of Input. Including 4 HDMI. very easy to use menus, it has the TV Guide in it.

Weaknesses: None that i have found

Summary: This is the best TV I have every seen. I would defiantly buy another Pioneer. The picture is just amazing. if you don't have room for the 60 in consider one of the smaller pioneers. I am really having trouble trying to get away from the screen to do other thing i need to do.

Strengths: Black levels like no other on the market in this price range.

Weaknesses: The wall mounts for this TV are wider than most TV's this size. Requires a newer model wall mount that costs about $270. However, when you spend this much on a TV, does it really matter?...

Summary: I've had my set for 4 days now. Watching football is absolutley amazing. I had a hard time pulling the trigger on this purchase (due to the price tag), but I'm glad I did. Our movie and Sports watching experience is phenomenal. The television looks beautiful on the wall...like a piece of art. Better than going to the movie theater! Make sure to have surround sound to truly enjoy the experience of the set.

Strengths: 1080p is awesome. Beautiful deep blacks. DVD's played through an upconverting player (1080i) are incredible!

Weaknesses: Color level is too variable from channel to channel. I have to frequently adjust it up and down but may be due to cable TV itself, not the TV.

Summary: When I first fired this baby up, I was stunned. It has a 60 inch screen and you don't really know how big this is until it's sitting in your living room. I would recommend seriously thinking about how a 60 inch screen is going to look in your room before purchasing. Other than sheer size, the picture quality is fantastic. I have been watching old DVD's and seeing them almost like the first time on this huge screen. "The Lord of the Rings" series has been especially great on this set! Color saturation is a bit too hit and miss; some channels are too saturated and some aren't saturated enough. As stated before, this could be a problem with the cable TV signal itself. Anyway, great set if you have the room!

Strengths: Picture quality. Multiple inputs. 1080P. 60in viewing.

Weaknesses: Mosquito noise still exist if I try to adjust for a color.

Summary: I bought this baby because of all the rave on the AV boards. After owning a Panny for 3 years now, I thought it was time to upgrade to a 60in 1080P. I choose this model because of the reputation Pioneer has. Some of the complaint about high def tv is how poor non-hidef signal look. With this model, the picture are a whole lot better. Better from my last set anyways. I have bluray player and the 1080P pictures are amazing. I would highly recommend this TV for people looking for tv in 4k range. The only complaint I have is the mosquito noise when I try to adjust the color. I put the color back to default because I thought the tv looked the best at factory settings.
