Cable without the Box


Panasonic is proud to introduce a revolutionary tru2way-ready HDTV that lets you enjoy full two-way interactive cable services without the need for an external cable box.



No Cable Box Rental Fees


With a tru2way-ready VIERA HDTV, there’s no need to rent a traditional, external cable box. Since the technology is built right into the TV, you never have to pay any cable box rental fees.


No Extra Equipment Clutter


Keep your home clutter-free with the tru2way-ready PZ80Q VIERA HDTV. The cable box is built into the television, so you can enjoy a simplified home theater set-up.


No Need for Multiple Remotes


With a tru2way-ready PZ80Q VIERA HDTV, your cable box is built into the TV itself, so there’s no need for separate TV and cable remote controls.


Tru2way Technology Leadership


Having partnered with Comcast in January 2008, Panasonic is now pleased to be the first company to market a series of tru2way-ready HDTVs.



Superb Picture Quality


Tru2way-ready PZ80Q VIERA HDTVs not only provide interactive cable services without the need for an external cable box, but also provide a superior 1080p full high definition picture so your images will be sharp and clear.


Say Goodbye to Motion Blur


The 480Hz Sub-field Drive refreshes the on-screen image 480 times per second, ensuring razor-sharp motion focus even in fast moving sports clips and action scenes.


It’s a Colorful World


Thanks to the x.v.Color feature, VIERA HDTVs exceed the HDTV color standard, so your picture will be sharp and vivid.


More Detail with Full HD


Get finer detail and more subtle colors on a VIERA HDTV with 1080p Full HD picture.



Seamless Component Integration


Tru2way-ready PZ80Q VIERA HDTVs help to further simplify your daily life thanks to VIERA Link™ technology and the SD memory card reader.


Connect Them All with VIERA Link


Controlling your AV devices is easier than ever with VIERA Link. When your compatible Panasonic products are connected using an HDMI cable, they can all be operated with a single remote.


Improve Your Photo Viewing Experience


View your photos on the big screen with the HD Photo Viewer. Simply insert an SD memory card into the built-in slot to display your photos so the whole family can see.



Environmentally Responsible


Panasonic PZ80Q VIERA HDTVs have been made to be as environmentally friendly as possible


Focus on Recycling


All VIERA Plasma display panels are lead and mercury free. This will make the products easier to recycle when they reach the end of their useable lives.


Longer Lifespan for Less Waste


VIERA plasma panels have a lifespan of up to 100,000 hours. That’s more than 30 years of viewing when watched 8 hours a day.*
* Before the brightness of the panel decreases to half its original level.


Increased Durability


VIERA TUF Display™ has a clear glass panel for strong resistance to impacts and scratches, perfect for families with small children. Cleaning is easy too - just wipe the panel with a soft cloth.


1080p
1080p is a High Definition (HD) video mode with 1,080 lines of vertical resolution, normally presented in 16:9, widescreen format. The letter "p" stands for progressive scan, or non-interlaced, which is an image display method that yields faster, more detailed pictures than those on standard televisions, which are subject to occasional flickering or distortion.
480 Hz
A 480 Hz processor refreshes a television's image 480 times per second. This ensures an exceptionally clear picture and dynamic, fluid motion.
x.v.Color
The x.v.Color feature expands the television's color scale to nearly twice as many hues as the previous standard, allowing for a more vivid picture. When coupled with the Deep Color feature, the VIERA HDTV can produce every color visible by the human eye.
VIERA Link™
VIERA Link is an exclusive Panasonic feature, whereby multiple compatible components, linked through an HDMI cable, are turned on with the touch of a single remote control button, providing immediate playback. This eliminates the need for multiple remotes.
Secure Digital (SD) Memory Cards
Secure Digital (SD) Memory Cards are a widely used format for flash memory in portable devices like digital cameras and handheld computers. When you take a picture with a digital camera, that data is stored on the camera's SD Memory Card, a postage stamp-sized flash memory drive that can be popped in and out of your camera or other compatible devices. SD cards are available in 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, and 512 MB, and 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 GB.
HDMI Cable
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new high quality standard digital connection between A/V devices, such as a cable TV set-top box, DVD player or A/V receiver, and a digital television. HDMI offers exceptional video and audio quality with a single quick-disconnect connector. It supports multi-channel digital audio transmissions and component video color spacing for true rendering of HD video. HDMI supports the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) standards, allowing transmission of copy-protected digital content to your display.
TUF DISPLAY™
The TUF DISPLAY™ feature adds a thick pane of glass to the VIERA HDTV's screen. This feature not only provides superior resistance to impacts and scratches, but also makes the VIERA easy to clean.
