Typical price: £990
What is it: 50-inch plasma TV with multimedia capabilities
What we think: Solid TV, but rather dated against some of the competition

We like:
Good price; very natural colour tones; connectivity is very good; features galore
We don't like:
Dithering noise when showing movement; not the best black level response; no 1080p/24 support
CNET UK judgement:
Hitachi was once one of the leading lights of the budget plasma TV world. But while the P50T01U remains attractive enough on the price front, its performance is let down by one or two old-school problems that other manufacturers seem to have solved
